Several Helpful Weight Loss Tips

The year 2009 has been one filled with highs and lows and I’m happy to say that it’s now at a high point. I’ll share some details about my experience with you.

Earlier this year, I ended up spending a lot of time indoors after I lost my job, and I ended up gaining 30 pounds in about 8 months. I couldn’t believe this, as I had never weighed this much before in my life.

From there, I tried to figure out what was going on. I wasn’t really eating any differently, and I guess it was just the gradual buildup of burning a few less calories every day.

Lucky for me, I’ve disciplined myself and find myself much lighter than I was just a few short months ago? You may be wondering how I’ve done it, and it isn’t nearly as hard as you might think.

First and foremost, I decided that drinking soda simply wasn’t a good idea. Even a diet soda isn’t good for you, as the artificial chemicals and sweeteners are said to have a negative effect on the body.

I didn’t stop at sodas though. I decided to eliminate any foods from my diet that had cane sugar or artificial sweeteners. I would get my sweet fix from fruits, and I really came to enjoy them.

Next, I make it a point to run at least 4 times weekly. I really try for 5 or 6 when I can, but 4 should do the job, especially if you aim for a faster speed each time.

The last thing I decided to do was replace all fried and sauteed foods with grilled and baked ones. This was difficult, but like any habit, I became used to it after a few weeks. I have a great body to show for it now, and I never plan to go back to the dark side.

While I still haven’t found a job, I’ve been writing about copper mailbox deals and brass mailboxes.
