How Can I Lose Weight Without Starving Myself?
I am a person who has seemingly struggled with my weight for the majority of my life. I must admit that I was basically fat up until a few years ago. I eventually decided that I had had enough and went about finding a way of obtaining a weight that I would be happy and comfortable with.
I was a person that had quite a lot of stress in my life due to the fact that I had three jobs; one selling composite doors for a composite door company, another advising people about jobs in foster care and the other was to do with providing a professional DVD authoring service. When I became a little bit stressed or even depressed I would start to comfort eat.
I considered and read about lots of weight loss programs but eventually decided that I needed my own form of diet.
I was not prepared to give up all of my favourite foods and this was my plan:
I was very much aware of the importance of eating breakfast and would eat either cerial or toast in the morning. I would have a fairly light lunch, such as a sandwich, however for my evening meal I decided that I could eat whatever I wanted. The main thing and most difficult to implement would be the fact that I could no longer eat between meals. The snacks had to go!. I am not trying to say that this was easy to do, however I had a need and was determined to lose the weight.
For exercise I decided to leave the car at home, wherever possible, and walk far more than I ever had done. Another new idea which worked really well was taking my kids to the park on a much more regular basis. At the park we would play games such as football, cricket and baseball. It is amazing how much weight you can lose by having fun.
