MY TIPS
FOR WEIGHT LOSS
Exercise is
the key to losing weight, you may find it hard to change your
eating habits at first, I did. That's where exercise can
help burn the fat. I have an elliptical machine in my
bedroom and a Tread mill in my living room because I was
determined I would put the work in every day. This way
you wont miss your favourite programs or listen to music what
ever helps encourage you to keep going. My tip is get
yourself checked out first by your GP then start off at your
own pace. If 5 minutes is all you can stand then so be
it. Listen to what your body is
tellingyou when
you've had enough. You
will get better in time as long as you keep at it. I find
that less is more these days I do 15 minutes on my elliptical
machine and 15 minutes on my Tread Mill (You don't have to run
for it to work). I also bought some stretching bands to
use before and after exercise it makes your muscles more flexed
and ready for action so you don't end up pulling a
muscle.
To tone up my
muscles I don't recommend you use just one piece of kit, I
use several and love them all. for my arm's and core I
use a 4Kg
kettle bell, a Flexi-bar
it's great for the bat wings ladies. Unfortunately as you
get older it's inevitable that this is going to happen,
even though I work my arms alot I will still get a certain
amount of loose flesh when my muscles aren't flexed. This
is still work in progress for me and my tip to you ladies in
your 40's & 50's is keep your weight down don't become
someone's couch potato exercise keep it fun and look after your
arms by using your triceps and biceps
regularly. I
have An Abs lounger I enjoy using that it's great
for stretching your spine you can tilt that far back you
can touch the floor and come back up and touch your
toes. Unfortunately the matter does tear if you are
around 13 stone as a family member of mine found out to my
dismay. It also takes up a fair bit of room in your
home, when stretched out. You would need at least 6
feet of space, but it can be folded away when not
required.
Abs Revolutioniser (Ab revolutionizer I use for strengthening
my core muscles. It's a great piece of kit when I use it
with my bar weights on the back end flip up pipe.) I highly
recommend you use it with a yoga mat as doing situp with it can
hurt your spine on even carpeted floors - It does work for me
and I hate situps but this is quite easy to do. I've been
lucky I guess because I have purchased equipment that I
have found beneficial to my own personal use and I still use
some of them after 5 years or more for cardio exercise and
building muscles.
When I
haven't got much time, or away from home I will still
exercise by using the Slendertone belt which I also
believe works well when used regularly. I just
interchange them depending on how much time I have
and I only tone my muscles 3-4 days a week and I always
have Sunday off from exercise.
Exercise Tip! If like
me you will find that exercising can be very addictive once you
get into it, so set yourself reasonable targets and don't use the scales
asyour guide to weight
loss because you wont get an accurate reading because in the
beginning you will be losing water, gaining muscle and losing
fat. Your clothes are you best guide but make sure you
use a tape measure all over your body and keep a little
notebook to check your results each week. If your going
to measure your weight always do it on the same day and before
food and drink and in your smalls to get a more accurate
weight. I've found that you can fit alot of exercises
into half an hour and the more muscles your exercise the more
fat you burn. So start off like me on the tread
mill or air gliding machines for 15 minutes then either use
kettle bells or flexi-bar to work the rest of your muscles and
watch the weight drop off when you do this every day.
Increase your time if you have a lot to lose in the beginning,
its up to you know one's going to be standing over your
shoulder email me I would love to hear how you get
on.
Food
Tip! I think we all know which food is
our downfall and if you can either stop eating it altogether or
reduce it! already we are on the road to weight
loss! Bread was mine - did you know that one slice of
bread can have upto 150 calories if it's brown and thick sliced
and you may find your having several slices with a meal.
An average meal should only be 500 calories on it's own so the
bread is like having another meal on top.
