Want to lose weight fast for a HS reunion, a trip to the beach, or just for your own peace of mind?  Lose weight too fast and you could harm your body.  Fad diets, diet pills, extreme fasting and other fast weight loss methods may work but they can also cause you to lose muscle, counter productive to a long term weight loss program, and can cause damage to your heart and other internal organs.  Here are some tips to safely lose weight fast.

Determine how many calories you consume, because burning more than you consume results in weight loss.  Keep a written record of every morsel, for at least a week.  Don’t cheat.  Cheating on this only harms you.  Now with the help of sources like mypyramidtracker.gov figure out the calories in what you eat.

Now that you know the calories you consume, start cutting.  This can be as simple as cutting down on portion sizes.  Remember, most restaurants and even people at home serve portions that are far larger than they should be.  There are a lot of other no brainer cuts that don’t significantly change what you eat.  These include salad dressing, butter, cakes, and juice or soda.  The average American consumes 240 calories a day from juice and soda.  That’s 90,000 calories a year – 25 pounds!  Getting used to the healthy taste of a salad with a pinch of lemon juice makes a big difference.  End you consumption of white bread, sugar and carbs.  These are easily replaced in your diet – try whole wild rice.

What about that side dish?  Take a look.  This portion of the meal often holds more calories than the main course.  Replace these items with healthy alternatives such as steamed vegetables, cottage cheese, or salad (minus dressing.)

Build up some muscle to increase muscle mass and metabolism.  That leads to burning more calories even when sitting still.  Aerobic regimens are the key.  Don’t pay attention to the 3-5 times a week school of thought on this  Find an activity you can sustain for seven days each week, forever..

You have your orders.  Get it in gear!
