Efficient Ways To Get In Shape
Dieting can be a slow process. At times it can be so slow that it almost seems as if there is no progress made at all. So it is no surprise that diet supplements are used by many American adults to help give their weight loss a boost. There's an entire weight loss sub-industry devoted to supplements which stops fat absorption, increase metabolism, and decrease appetite.
I'm an avid viewer of Dr. Oz's show as he seems to be very balanced and, at the same time, really up-to-date regarding the current trends in dieting and what works and what does not. So when he acknowledged that hormones can definitely slow down my weight loss efforts, I sat up and took notice. Maybe he would also have some helpful suggestions on the solution to this dilemma.
He did have a number of recommendations and I'm going to share them here, in case there is still a female in this country that has not tuned into Dr. Oz's show on a daily basis. He pointed out that after age 50 the body burns 200 calories a day less because of estrogen loss. As you age and your eggs "shrivel," your body turns to your belly fat as a backup for storage of its estrogen. That being the case, you need to provide your body with an alternative source of estrogen. Dr. Oz recommends you grind up and eat two teaspoons of flax seeds daily to boost your estrogen.
Try introducing new healthy foods to your diet. If you do not get five fruits or vegetables a day, introducing more fruits and vegetables in your diet should be a priority. Go to the grocery store more often and look for fruits and vegetables that look appetizing. If you do not like a vegetable right away, try different ways to cook it. You should also try juicing so you can have a couple of glasses of juice a day to get your five portions of fruits and vegetables.
Be more careful with the portions you eat. If you tend to overeat, put less food on your plate and try eating slowly. Avoid distractions so you can stop as soon as you are full. If you always feel the need to snack between meals, try having several smaller meals during your day. Have five small meals at regular hours or even six.
* Green Tea Extract - not only is green tea loaded with antioxidants, it also helps with weight loss. Green tea extract contains caffeine, theanine and catechins and these have shown to help with weight loss. Decaffeinated green tea does not seem as effective as regular green tea.
Work out twice a week to tone your body. You should start by developing your core muscles, for instance by doing some sit ups and some crunches. Once working out becomes easier, try exercising more frequently. Add some cardio exercises to your fitness workouts so you can burn a large amount of calories. Look for exercises you really enjoy so you look forward to working out. Join a gym if you need help with your fitness program.
These tips will help you reach a healthy weight in a reasonable time frame. Use what you just read to develop your own weight loss program and you will soon get the body you always wanted.
