Don’t stuff yourself with food in a single sitting; instead have 5 to 6 small meals or snacks in a day. Eating several small meals helps the body to release less insulin, which keeps blood sugar steady and helps to control hunger.

It takes ? hour for the message to get from your stomach to your brain when you’re full. Because of this, simply take small portions to start. It’s easier to do when you know in ? hour you can go back for more if you still want some. But you won’t.

Build in some fave foods
It’s fine to build some fave foods into your healthy diet plan. Successful slimmers do it as it helps them avoid feeling deprived. Make sure you choose quality foods that you really feel like eating (do you fancy sweet, savoury, crunchy, creamy at that time?), sit down, eat slowly and savour them.

Deciding on what you will truly enjoy (and knowing that you can have it again another time if you want to) adds satisfaction and means you’re likely to be happy with a small amount.

EAT SOME PROTIEN AT EACH MEAL & AS A SNACK
In addition to everything that? been discussed before, eating protein helps you burn more calories. Jeff Hample, Ph.D., R.D., a spokesman for the American Dietetic Association says that, “Protein is made up mainly of amino acids, which are harder for your body to breakdown, so you burn more calories getting rid of them.?
Just think ?eating a protein rich snack can help you lose weight. How about a few slices of turkey or ham or some string cheese?
Eating protein will also help you feel full so that you are less likely to crave unhealthy snacks.

In stead of just walking or running at one pace, rather do a shorter, more intense routine:

* Warm-up for 3-4 minutes at a fast walk or light jog;
* Interval 1 – run at 8.0 mi/hr for 1 minute;
* Interval 2 – walk at 4.0 mi/hr for 1.5 minutes;
* Interval 3 – run at 10.0 mi/hr for 1 minute;
* Interval 4 – walk at 4.0 mi/hr for 1.5 minutes;

Repeat the 4 intervals 4 times for a very intense 20-minute workout.
You can modify this exercise and use it on an exercise bicycle or treadmill.

EAT YOUR VEGGIES
It is so easy to use a low-carb diet as an excuse for poor nutrition. Resist this temptation. If the only vegetable you have eaten in the last 5 years has been the potato, now is a good time to begin experimenting with other vegetables. This is important for your overall health and to avoid some nasty side effects of not getting enough fiber in your diet.
If you try hard enough, you will find vegetables that you enjoy eating. Experiment with grilling veggies and cooking with real butter to add flavor. You can also search for new recipes on the Internet or in cookbooks.
Remember, if you are only eating 40 grams of carb a day or less, two cups of plain salad greens contain only about 5 grams of carbohydrate. You have no excuse not to eat your veggies.

I walk a few miles a day but I barely eat 2. That works for me. Though, I seem to have gained a lot of weight from y!a. I would do it for 20 or 30 minutes per day for starters.

Also, YouTube exercise videos. I like to record them on my camera phone and play them back when I go to do my exercise.

That is a great start. You might want to consider running 2 min and walking 3 minunts and increase the running over time.

The real key to weightloss is diet. Eating just a little less will do more than a workout. Workingout helps burn added calories and tones.

Good luck and train yourself to enjoy your 45 minutes so that you look forward to it rather than dread it. I workout 1.5 hours three days a week and it is my priority.

One last this. set a goal. Find a 5k local run and sign up. Now train for it a AND DO IT.

Lower your starting goal. Aim for one mile, that is 20 Min’s. three times a week. After two weeks add a fourth time and then add another day each week. You need to build your leg muscles and not give yourself shin splints the first day. That is how I start and after 4 weeks the pounds just started disappearing. More important my energy level increased.

You’re right on the mark (assuming you are physically able to do it and your doctor would be okay with that) You need an absolute minimum of 30 minutes but 45 -60 will help you shed pounds more quickly. Also remember that muscle burns fat all the time, so the more muscle you have the more fat you’re burning. So try some push-ups, crunches & squats as well and you’ll speed things along even more. Good luck!
