A lot of people today are trying to lose weight, either because they are suffering from a disease called obesity, or they have an ailment called diabetes. Some also just want to look good. All these are reasons why people want to lose some amount of weight. And doctors say that when a person wants to lose weight for health purposes he or she must do this slowly and surely.
Even though experts say not to use short cuts when it comes to shedding off those pounds, and instead eat a proper diet and exercise, some people still do occasionally feel the need to embark on a quick weight loss plan for some special occasion.
Be it high school reunion, photo shoots, wedding or some other occasion, if you're going to have your picture take, you want to look the best. If you find yourself needing to lose weight fast for a special occasion, there are several things you can do that can help you shed off those pounds quickly without compromising your health. We'll talk about those.
One popular way achieve quick weight loss is by changing the type of food that you consume. One obvious step to do is to reduce your fat intake because high fat intake leads to weight gain and even obesity, in some people. If you have to consume fat, make sure that they are of the non saturated kind.
One other thing that you should eliminate for quick weight loss is sugar and all sweetened beverages and products. It has been well documented that people who eat more sugar have more fat in their body than those who don't. The problem with sugar is that not only does it contain empty calories, it also raises your insulin levels, making you hungry and forcing you to consume more food than you need to.
For that quick weight loss, staying hydrated is also a big plus. This ensures that your cells are working properly and keeping your metabolism running. However, the only beverage you should be enjoying is water. Avoid flavored beverages, even the sugar free ones, avoid anything that fizzles and anything with empty calories in the form of sugar. Water will transport nutrients to your entire body making sure that even on a low calorie diet, you're still getting all your essential nutrients.
Finally, to achieve quick weight loss, you must get your fill of fiber. Fiber helps you feel full all the time. This will stop you from giving in to hunger pangs and such. Food with a lot of fiber fills you up faster, so you end up eating less; plus it aids in digestion. Get your fill of fiber from vegetables, fruits like pineapples, and some whole grain cereals.
Now that said, nothing promotes faster weight loss than proper nutrition and proper nutrition is not measured by the number of calories you eat but by the quality of nutrients that you are feeding your body cells.
Unfortunately, modern farming methods have nearly depleted the soil from most vital nutrients and therefore, the food buy from the supermarkets is severely lacking in optimum nutritional values.
It's known well in the medical circles that when you fail to provide your body with enough nutrients, the body perceives that as a threat of food shortage no matter how many calories you're eating. Once that happens, your body starts to slow down your metabolism as this is the bodies way of protecting itself from perceived starvation.
As far as I know, there is only one way to stop this from happening and that's to supplement your diet with products that are low in calories but packed with Nutrients. There are products on the market that will pack the nutrients of 3 pounds of vegetables, 3 pounds of fruits and a pound of meat in one small 90 calories Meal replacement shake. These supplements are very good for anyone trying to lose weight fast and at about $2 a meal, they are also very affordable and convenient.
This is definitely the best way to get enough nutrients while eating a low calorie diet and not trigger your body's sense of threat. If you want more information about this, please see the links below.
