Let's face it! We've spent bundles of cash on weight loss
supplements, but not one could help burn the lard, let alone retain the
results. The money-back guarantees on diet pills also fell flat when the
time came to claim a refund. Now, tired, you've finally decided not to
burn any more cash on useless, run-off-the-mill products. And, we must
say you've done just the right thing!
Why should you break the
bank when you can trim your waistline without having to spend a single
penny? Surprised! Right here in this article we've rounded up 4 cheapest
ways to lose weight fast for women. Are you ready to take down?
1. Fat in moderation -
Fat
has quite a bad reputation when it comes to weight loss, but you cannot
cut it out completely because it can be your friend in this journey.
The primary reason is because fat helps sustain muscle.
If you eat
too much fat, you will add pounds and if you eat too little, the body
will start using up muscle mass. The key is to take the middle path. You
can eat food sources of fat in moderation. The easiest way to do this
is going meatless on a few days and branding cheesy burgers and fries as
occasional treats in your food journal. Also, be sure you consume
healthy saturated fats.
2. Fill up on Salads-
Many
women complain that they fail to drop weight despite eating only
vegetable and fruit salads. Why? Because you're probably eating a salad
made at a salad bar where you should have been eating a salad made at
home. What's the difference? The high calorie toppings and dressing
makes the difference. Toppings and dressings enhance the flavor of
otherwise bland vegetables, but they contain fats, salts and sugar in
large quantities and thus turn a nutritious low-calorie meal into an
unhealthy, calorie loaded snack.
A better option is to dish out
your own salads a home. Vegetables and fruits are readily available;
seasonal ones can be bought at the frozen foods counter at a grocery
store. Preparing a salad hardly takes a few minutes and it is also
cheaper than the one you buy at a salad bar.
3. Double your intake of Fluids -
Fluid
is an umbrella term for water, beverages, fruit juices, herbal teas,
smoothies and colas. Should you have all of them? No. A weight loss diet
only permits water, fruits juices, smoothies and herbal teas.
Water
is very essential because it flushes of waste from the body. If you
opt for fruit juices, choose freshly-juiced fruit juices over packaged
juices. The later contains added sugars, flavors and preservatives that
will eventually add bulges to your frame. Smoothies are a new trend when
it comes to weight loss. They are mostly made of green leafy vegetables
and are mixed with fruits to make it delicious and healthier. Beverages
and colas are not recommended because they contain a lot of empty
calories and they dehydrate the body.
4. Exercise wherever and whenever you can -
When
we say exercise, our mind immediately pictures a gym with a few persons
lifting weights and other exercise equipment waiting to be used.
Exercise needs a disciplined approach but it need not be done only at a
gym. In fact, in addition to your 30 minutes cardio or weight training
session, you can turn all your household chores into an exercise
activity. Thus, you can take the stairs instead of the elevator. If your
office is within a few miles from home, you can walk or cycle.
Gardening can also help in losing weight fast.
How would your life be if you could lose all the extra fat from
your body? If you take action now, in 2 months you'll be incredibly
sexy!
