Losing 5-10 pounds is entirely possible but it takes something a lot of people lack: the ability to remain motivated and the discipline to stick with a meal pan without deviating. You can do it safely and do not have to starve or live at the gym. That method of quick weight loss is bad for your health and believe it or not you may even gain weight in the process.
Below are a few tips on hoe you can shed that unwanted 5-10 pounds in a healthy manner.
#01.
Make a complete meal plan for the time period of this diet. If its 7 or 14 days you will need to plan for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Also include healthy snacks for those in between meal cravings. Make the meals themselves only about 300-500 calories and high protein low card combinations. You can find quite a few great recipes online to help you with this part of the diet plan. A healthy food choice is the key to losing the weight fast.
#02.
Throw out al of the following items; white bread, bagels, pastas and any other baked goods that you have. If they are not in the house it will be easier to not yield to the temptation. All sugary snacks, sodas and energy drinks and for those that like tea or kool aid that is definitely off the list.
#03.
You meal plan should have you eating four to six meals a day. The meals should be high in fiber and protein and low in carbohydrates. Some of the best foods to use would be unprocessed cheese, fish, eggs, skim or 1-% milk vegetables and fruit. Try to make it fresh fruit or canned without heavy syrups.
#04.
From the beginning you should start some type of exercise program. You do not have to buy any of those expenses programs advertised on television or the web. Walking for 10-15 minutes a day will do for starters. The objective here is to increase the heart rate for a sustained period of time. If you are serious enough you can get a pedometer with a caloric meter on it to track your burn factor.
#05.
Water, Water and more Water - this will aid the kidneys in its function of flushing toxins and the broken down fatty tissues out of your system. Drinking water will fill the gaps and act as an appetite suppressant.
#06.
Finally try to stay more active than sedentary. Move around the house instead of just sitting in front of the television. Do anything that will make you burn a little energy. Television has a way of making a person feel fatigued and sluggish and the more you sit the more you will want to sit.
Losing weight quickly requires a resolve that you will do all that is necessary for the time required. After the weight is off you should also consider that if you return to your old habits you will just gain it back plus 5 pounds more.
