How To Cut Your Calories

How To Cut Your Calories by ray0369 Are you trying to cut calories to lose weight? If so, you may be confused by all the numbers you see online and in magazines. It's hard to figure out exactly how many calories to cut to lose weight effectively and keep the pounds off for good. But don't worry. Cutting calories is easier than you might imagine - once you get the facts. Can I Lose Weight by Cutting Calories Alone? There are different ways to lose weight - but all of them require that you change your daily calorie balance. Experts call this your energy balance. The simplest way to change your energy balance is to cut calories. You can accomplish this by eating smaller portions of food at meal time or by skipping snacks and high-calorie drinks. You can also add exercise to your weight loss program to increase your calorie deficit and lose weight faster. But be careful. This plan works for some people, but it backfires on others. Exercise is good for your body and should be part of a healthy lifestyle. But exercise can also make you hungry. If you're already cutting calories to lose weight, the added hunger after exercise can be too much, and it may cause you to quit your weight loss program altogether. Yes, it is possible that the wrong type of exercise will cause hunger and you can gain weight. That's why I suggest that making small tweaks in your diet like cutting out snack or soft drinks, doesn't really work for the long term. First of all, I believe you have to be honest with yourself and realize the mistakes you made that cause your weight problem. If you want to lose that excess fat you have to admitt to yourself how you got to this place. And resolve in your mind that your going to stop doing those things and live a healthy lifestyle. If you already exercise, you may be able to reduce calories and maintain your exercise program to lose weight. But if exercise is not a part of your daily routine, start slowly. First, cut calories to lose weight and then slowly add an easy exercise program to increase your weight loss. How Many Calories Should I Cut to Lose Weight? If you have decided to live healthier, than start by eating healthy which means eat fresh natural foods. You don't have to get crazy like going vegetarian, but you do have to start eating fresh fruits and vegetables, lean fresh meat, not hamburger, white meat poultry, and seafood. For snacks choose nuts and seeds and stop drinking calories. What ever you drink should not have calories. Stop buying processed or manufactured food. We live on a planet that provides us with natural grown foods. Buy organic when ever you can, but in some case it's not necessary like bananas or coconuts. Check the internet for suggestions. ⁣Of course, in order to meet your goal, you need to keep track of how many calories you eat. Another reason to eat all natural foods, you don't have to count calories. You do have to restrict your meat consumption. Most humans eat too much animal meat. Poultry is not animal and the fat on poultry is not as harmful to the body. Most of the excess fat around your waist is from animal fat and animal fat is marbled in animal meat, you can't trim off the fat marbled through meat. The reason eating poultry and fish is better for you is because the fat isn't marbled through the muscle. You can see and remove that fat. Animal meat should only be eaten in small quantities, about 3 ounces at one time, and only twice a week. The other days you should be eating seafood or poultry. Don't skimp on seafood, eat seafood in some form at least 3 times a week. It's best to keep a food journal. This way you can find your mistakes. Sometimes when your not losing fat it might be your food preparation. I never eat fried food no matter how healthy the food maybe, frying your food will in oil will change the food and you might even double the calories. Should I Cut More Calories to Lose Weight Faster? No So if cutting calories can lead to weight loss, you might be tempted to cut as many calories as possible to slim down. Some dieters even lower their daily food intake to 800 calories or less to lose weight. But extremely low-calorie diets usually don't lead to permanent weight loss for several reasons. First, very low-calorie diets (VLCD) can affect your metabolism. Some dieters call this "starvation mode." When you eat far less than your body needs, your metabolism slows down to adjust for the lower supply of energy. When your metabolism slows down, your rate of weight loss slows down, too. Next, very low-calorie diets affect your daily energy level. Why does this matter? Your daily activity level has a big impact on the number of calories you burn every day. If you stay active and burn more calories, you're more likely to see weight loss results. If you're exhausted from eating too little, you won't burn as many calories and weight loss can stall. If your body thinks that your starving it will hoard calories to the point where you might even gain weight. It can do that by adjusting the number of calories the body burns to the point where you almost have no energy anymore. The bodies primary function is to keep you from starving and it will shut down body functions to do that. You can cut calories to lose weight. But be careful that you don't cut too many calories and risk your health. Your body needs time to adjust to a new lifestyle and a new eating plan. Take it slow and make small adjustments to see real weight loss results that last. You can make big changes in your body but you have to trick your body into making the changes. So changes will have to be done gradually.

Will Drinking More Water Help Me Lose Weight?

The following question is important. It seems so simple but yet very few people actually drink 64 ounces a day. I know half a gallon of water seems a little extreme, but your body needs it. You need to flush out toxins (chemicals and other impurities) from your body. Everything we eat or drink will have some percentage of impurities and the best way to get rid of those impurities and chemicals is to drink water and flush them out of your system. 

Question: I'm struggling with my weight loss diet. I mean I'm sticking with my calorie counts, but the weight loss is really slow going. I've read that drinking water can help with weight loss. Is that true and why?

Answer: Yes, it is possible that drinking more water throughout the day will help you lose weight. So why is that?

One possible reason for this weight loss could be that that drinking more water could affect your metabolism, which would cause you to burn more calories.

But, I actually haven't seen any evidence for that to be the reason for any weight loss.

Drinking water certainly helps you lose weight when it becomes a substitute for high-calorie beverages, such as sugary sodas and other sweet drinks. I mean, if you typically drink 12 ounces of soda each day, replacing it with water could easily save almost 1,000 calories each week and help you lose a little over a pound each month. I think this is probably the best explanation.

Population studies suggest that people who drink more water tend to consume fewer calories. So that could be due to swapping out the sodas, or it could be just part of an overall shift in health-conscious, meaning that making one good decision (drinking more water) leads to another good decision (eating right) and maybe even another good choice (exercising more).

Some experts believe that feeling hungry may be an indicator that you need water.

I'm not sure if that's true, but drinking water instead of eating a snack will reduce the calories you consume.

Finally, increasing your water intake before meals may help you watch your weight because it takes up space in your stomach. This, in turn, may reduce the amount of food you consume during a meal -- at least if you're middle age or older; studies don't indicate that young people who drink water before a meal tend to eat less.

Personally, water retention is a major cause for weight gain and water retention is caused by not drinking enough water. The same thing holds true for calories. To preserve life your body will hoard food or water if it thinks you are starving. So by drinking more water, your body will assume you have a regular water supply and will regularly flush the water out as urine. 

The same thing will happen with the calories your eating. If you cut your calorie intake drastically, your body will go into preservation mode and hoard calories in your fat cells. If your body is happy with your daily calorie intake it will continue to burn all the calories necessary for all your body functions and stop hoarding so you will start to lose fat.

Best Ways to Drink More Water

You don't have to drink plain tap water to avoid extra calories if you don't like it. Mineral water works just fine, or you can add lemons or limes to your water for flavor. Herbal teas have virtually no calories unless you add sugar and milk. Other healthy beverages include 100-percent fruit juices, vegetable juices, and low-fat milk. They contain some calories but also offer lots of vitamins and minerals. It's important to note that vegetable juices can be high in sodium.

Coffee and black or green tea contain caffeine, and many people think that the diuretic effect of caffeine offsets the amount of water supplied, but recent studies suggest that's not true. Caffeine is a nervous system stimulant, and caffeine-sensitive individuals may need to avoid excess consumption of highly caffeinated beverages like coffee, colas, and energy drinks.

What's The Mediterranean Diet?

 total diet and lifestyle approach continues to be one of the best prescriptions for a long, healthy life.

The Promise

Delicious food that's stood the test of time and helps keep you healthy for years to come. That's at the heart of the traditional Mediterranean diet.

There’s no single Mediterranean diet plan, but in general, you'd be eating lots of fruits and vegetables, beans and nuts, healthy grains, fish, olive oil, small amounts of meat and dairy, and red wine. 

This lifestyle also encourages daily exercise, sharing meals with others, and enjoying it all. 

Does It Work?

This diet scores big for heart health. Studies suggest it can make you less likely to get heart disease, lower your blood pressure and cholesterol, and may also help you avoid certain cancers and chronic diseases.

For weight loss, you’ll have better results if you stick with it more than six months, get regular exercise, and cut back on how much you eat. Studies show it may be better for weight loss than a low-fat diet.

What You Can Eat and

 What You Can't

You’ll eat mostly plant-based foods, including fruits and vegetables, potatoes, whole-grain bread, beans, nuts, and seeds.

You can have yogurt, cheese, poultry, and eggs in small portions. You should eat fish and seafood at least twice a week. "Good" fats get a stamp of approval: Think olives, extra-virgin olive oil, nuts, sunflower seeds, and avocados instead of butter or margarine. You’ll use olive oil a lot while cooking. Reach for herbs and spices to add flavor.

Red wine gets a thumbs-up, in moderation (one glass for women, one to two for men). But water is your go-to drink.

Dessert is usually fruit. Sweets and red meats are OK occasionally.

This pyramid shows you all the foods available to you on this diet Some foods you can eat daily some only once a week and some only once a month. Always drink all the water. When I was trying to lose weight I did drink coffee and tea but only black. You can eat all you want as long as you stay on the pyramid. If it's not on the pyramid don't eat it. You don't have to count calories. At first, you won't lose a lot of weight but after your body gets accustom to eating healthy, you'll feel better and start to lose weight. Naturally, the more active you are the calories you'll burn and faster you'll lose weight. Try to walk an extra 2  miles a day. If you keep track of your steps with a cell phone app or a pedometer, you need to log about 10,000 steps a day. That's from morning to night, don't try to do it all at one time.

Reasons Why You Need A Better Diet

A Healthy Balanced Diet

First posted on VeryWell.com, this post tells you the advantages of eating healthy. Also eating healthy will save you money. All that snack food and canned and bottled drinks are costing you a fortune and your only harming your healthy.

Eating a healthy balanced diet isn't all that complicated. Just choose a variety of foods from all the major food groups including fruits and vegetables, meats or protein sources, dairy or calcium, grains and cereals, and healthy oils and fats. It also helps if you also want to consume the right amount of calories to maintain a healthy weight and cut back on all the unhealthy junk foods.

Sometimes the question isn't about what makes up a healthy diet; it's about why should a person eat a healthy diet. So, in case you're wondering, here are my top ten reasons why you should eat a healthy diet.

Makes Losing Weight Easier

Oh sure, you can lose weight by eating low-calorie junk food or by following the latest ridiculously restrictive fad diet, but it's just not the best way to lose weight and be healthy.

Eating a healthy diet that includes lots of fresh low-calorie nutrient-dense fruits and veggies, high-fiber whole grains and legumes will help you lose the excess adipose and supply you with all the nutrients you need. 

Also Makes Gaining Weight Easier

While there's much more interest in losing weight, there are a number of people who need to gain weight due to illness or other reasons. Choosing healthful energy-dense foods like nuts, seeds, and dried fruit can help you gain weight without resorting to junk foods that aren't nutritious.

It's Good for Your Heart

A diet rich in fish, nuts, fruits, veggies and other healthy foods (like a Mediterranean-type diet) provides you with omega-3 fatty acids and monounsaturated fats that are good for your heart. It also makes it easier to avoid most trans-fats that are associated with cardiovascular disease. For tens of thousands of years, humans looked to the seas and oceans for food and many still do. You don't have to buy ready-made food in the grocery store. 

And Reduces Your Risk of Some Types of Cancer

Eating a poor diet, drinking too much alcohol, gaining too much weight, and heavy consumption of red and processed meats are associated with a higher risk of some forms of cancer. And although it's difficult to say that any particular foods prevent cancer, eating a healthy diet overall may decrease your cancer risk.

Sets a Good Example for Your Kids

If you're a parent or grandparent struggling with a picky eater, you might find the situation easier to handle if you set a good example for your child. How can you expect your kids to eat broccoli while you're sitting there eating potato chips? Also, getting kids and picky eaters into the kitchen is one great way to get them motivated to try new foods.

No Need to Waste Money on Supplements

Eating a healthful, balanced diet will provide you will all the essential vitamins and minerals you need every day. I mean, I know there's nothing wrong with taking a multi-vitamin to ensure an adequate intake, but research indicates there are more health benefits associated with eating a variety of healthful foods, and in some cases, taking supplements can be risky.

Please note, however, if your health care provider has you taking supplements for some reason, you shouldn't stop taking them without speaking to him or her first.

Helps You Feel More Energetic

Eating a healthy diet provides you with the carbohydrates you need for energy, along with enough B-complex vitamins to help the process along. Don't forget to start with a healthy breakfast because it helps keep you alert all morning and sets the stage for a day of healthy eating.

How Much Sitting Do You Do?

This is a great post you should read. Some of us still shake their head and wonder why they can't lose weight, but if you read this it will spell out the problem that most of us have with our weight.

What's the Worst Time of Day for Sitting Too Much?

By Wendy Bumgardner

Prolonged sitting is a risk factor for heart disease, even if you exercise, according to studies. Now that so many people are wearing activity trackers, Fitbit looked at anonymous aggregated data from over a million users to see who sits the most and when. It is enlightening.

The Worst Times of Day for Being Sedentary

Fitbit's data showed three times of day were the most likely to find you sitting or slumped at your desk.

Afternoon from 2 pm - 3 pm
After-coffee/before lunch - prime work/meeting time of 10:30 - 11 am
After work and after dinner, specifically from 7:30-8:30 pm.
10 Tips to Stop Sitting Still: If you know when you are the most likely to be inactive, you can literally take these steps.

If you know when you are the most likely to be inactive, you can literally take these steps.

Work and Sit More, Retire and Sit Less

The stereotype is that you retire to your armchair, but Baby Boomers never did like to be conventional. Total sedentary time decreases after age 55 and right around retirement age from ages 58-66, people sit less.

This reflects on what happens when you enter the workforce. The Fitbit data found that people from age 20 to 25 had their total sitting time go up an hour. Sitting time continues to increase by 30 minutes from age 24 to 30 and up another 30 minutes between the ages of 30 and 55. That's a total of two more hours of sitting compared with their school-age years. This is concerning because one study found that for each hour of sitting, heart disease risks rise 14%

30 Easy Ways to Walk 2000 More Steps per Day: Use these hacks to ensure you are getting up and moving around for 250 steps each hour of the work day.
Which Countries Sit the Most?

Oddly enough, it is in Spain that people are the least inactive during the workday, even though many still observe siesta in the afternoon. They are inactive for only 5 hours, 2 minutes before 6 pm, which is 45 minutes less than the average for the USA and China. It could be that a siesta break from sedentary work is what keeps them moving. Combined with a tradition of going for an evening walk, paseo, it could be that Spain is ahead of the game for reducing sedentary time.

Hours of Inactive Time Before 6 pm by Country - Fitbit Data

US: 5:47
China: 5:45
New Zealand: 5:35
UK: 5:29
Canada: 5:25
India: 5:23
France: 5:15
Italy: 5:12
Australia: 5:10
Spain: 5:02

Figure out what time of day is bad for you and do something about it. When you add the time you spend in bed to the time you're sitting, most overweight adults are on their feet fewer hours than the hours sitting or lying down. As a matter of fact, some adults are only on their feet about 4 hours a day. I put this in bold for a good reason. Even a one-hour workout can't erase the damage we do with that much sitting.

So what's the answer? Work from a standup desk with a stool so you can stand or sit. This isn't a new idea, many people work this way today. Our grandparents worked this way. Many blue-collar workers work this way now. Anything that will cut down the number of hours we sit. The desk that we sit at has been the biggest contributor to our health problems. This type of inactivity combined with a bad diet has ruined the health of millions of Americans.

Habits of healthy People

Learning about the common habits of healthy people can be a particularly motivational experience, even for people who are already living an active lifestyle. Learning from others who have had success staying slim and fit will encourage us to continue on the path to a healthier lifestyle.

It’s generally pretty easy to spot someone that is living a healthy life and it’s usually pretty admirable—they seem to smile a little brighter, they always appear to be happy, and they are constantly on-the-go and productive. Learn about four of the most common habits that these people have mastered and how you can emulate these to improve and build upon your own fitness regimen.

They are Actively Aware of Their Food Choices

Healthy people know exactly what type of food they put in their body and often make sacrifices to help keep their bodies running optimally. This means, when they go out to eat with friends, they won’t always be delving into a large serving of nachos or ordering that extra round.

They always read nutritional labels and scan for artificial sweeteners, tricky food additives, and preservatives, because they prefer avoiding over processed foods when possible.

While they are not always 100% perfect with their nutrition, healthy people often abide by general rules of thumb, such as, no alcoholic beverages during the week, no more than one soda a month, or other methods to do their best to avoid food that is unhealthy.

What this doesn’t mean, is that they are over the top or obnoxious about their habits—they choose to lead by example. To start developing this healthy habit, pay close attention to the foods that you eat. Keep a food log that documents what sort of foods you eat and how often you eat them. If you noticed any questionable or unhealthy food choices, work on weaning them out of your diet. You can learn a lot of good habits from healthy people and we can all learn a lot by watching what those people buy, what they eat and what they drink. It's easy to spot healthy people in restaurants, store or in the break room at work. Watching other people is a good way to find better habits that you can pick up.

Consistently Monitor Their Health

Aside from tracking their food and nutritional intake, healthy people also monitor their overall physical performance by regularly exercising to gauge whether or not their health has improved or worsened over time.

This means that they’ll often experiment with jogging longer distances or lifting heavier weights just to see how well their body responds to a more intense workout. If these exercises were more difficult than they had expected, it could be an indication that they should be scaling their efforts.

You should be consistently aware of how your body is supposed to feel so that you can understand when you aren’t working out enough, or even if you are working out too hard. Additionally, you should not be afraid to monitor your health by visiting a doctor for a checkup or consulting with a physical trainer when an outside examination is necessary.

Stay The Course Even When It’s Difficult

There are often going to be times when your fitness goals become unclear, you become physically exhausted, or you lose much of your motivation—hey, it happens to the best of us. But one habit that healthy people proudly focus on is a continual drive to fight onward, even when their health goals become overwhelming difficult.

Instead of painstakingly giving up, they stay consistent and add variety to their routine by incorporating new exercises which can make their healthy habits fresh again. They find other activities that make their lives more enjoyable, such as joining a gym with a friend, hiking with their dogs, or playing football with the kids.

To adopt this habit, focus on breaking any health plateaus that you experience by first realizing that it’s okay to not always be perfect. When times get tough and you start to struggle or question your motivation, this shouldn’t be considered a sign of weakness—this is a sign of growth and change, embrace the challenge.

Experiment With New Habits

Healthy people are always on the lookout for new habits, suggestions, or technology that can help them continue to grow stronger throughout their lives. They understand that their life really begins when they venture outside of their comfort zones by setting new goals and trying new sports or new activities.

Additionally, healthy people transition their new habit building beyond physical changes and introduce a variety of exciting new modifications to their diet—they cook new foods to surprise their metabolism and find new ways to balance their essential nutrients.

Think about how you can incorporate new habits to find the exercise and fitness routines that work best for you. Consider drinking more water, reading nutrition labels, getting annual checkups, scheduling more time for sleep, working out with a friend, trying new outdoor adventures, etc.

What are some of the healthiest habits that you have experienced? What are some of the areas that you are succeeding in and where could you use more help? Do you find developing healthy habits to be a beneficial process in your fitness routine, or more intimidating?

Summary

Healthy individuals stay on track and get back on track when they’ve slipped. Watch what you eat. Regularly monitor your weight. Consistently make time for your workouts. And keep on the lookout for new, healthy habits.

The biggest tip I can give you is to pay attention to your body. Monitor yourself every day. Make your goal, "your mission in life". Constantly be looking to improve on your plan and never lose sight of your goal. It will take time, in some cases years, but never stop trying. Sometimes other health problems can't take priority, but remember your goal and get back on track as soon as possible.

What's The Point, I'll Never Lose Weight

What's the point, do you have to ask? Everything we do in our lives is affected by our appearance. Maybe it shouldn't make any difference in our work life, but your appearance is the first thing that walks in the room. Sure, it's not fair that people pre-judge you before you even open your mouth, but it happens and it happens every day. Even when people know you; it's your appearance that helps you get that promotion; that helps you get a raise.

When you see an executive that's thin and trim you know that's what he want in his employees. The premise is that if he or she is in good physical condition, they know how to take care of themselves and therefore is organized and responsible and can take care of the job. Now, that might not seem fair, but in privately owned companies they can hire who they want and appearance does count.

And what about your social life, are the thin and trim people considered the "beautiful people" today?  Yes, just watch TV. Watch those magazine shows like "Extra". And what brought on the new mania? The new Immigrants pouring in, like the Brits, Orientals, and the middle eastern people like the East Indians. Companies have learned that thin people have more energy and will spend more time working. You're not going to hear anything from a company about a person's weight, but quietly, behind closed doors, there's an unwritten policy to "beware of anyone overweight, they might be a problem".
