9 Steps to a Healthy Weight Loss (part 2)

Here another tips for you that will help you to lose those unwanted pounds with the healthy way:

6. Get supported
Join with the people that have the same goals like you, it can be your family or your friends. Take a walk with them every day. They won't make faces when you order something for your health rather than for the fun of it. In fact, why not get a group together? That way, if one person is not available, maybe someone else will be. People who "go on diets" tend to start avoiding people, and that often is at least a part of the reason they fall off the diet wagon.

7. Sleep enough
When your body is tired, certain chemical changes take place and substances are released that contribute to weight gain. It is easier to get involved in activity when you are rested.

8. Have fun
You need to enjoy life. If you lose weight and feel healthy, you will want to enjoy life, and you will feel good about yourself. Then you if enjoy your life, you will probably be more active, and this, combined with other beneficial effects related to weight gain and weight loss will help your healthy weight loss. Go on. Have some fun.

9. Don't quit
This is the important thing that you need to know, when you are on a healthy weight loss program, your weight loss will be slow. Many people are disheartened when they think of only losing one or two pounds a week on average. However, that would be a weight loss of 52 to 104 pounds in a year and 104 to 208 pounds in two years! To put that in proportion, I had a friend who had a gastric bypass. She was told that even with surgery, she would probably only lose about 75 pounds in her first year, and the weight loss would slow down in the second year! Many people could accomplish similar results just by building up to a daily 20 to 30 minute walk and by cutting a few empty calories out of their diet.

And the last from me, be happy with your results because there is no failure until you give up completely.
