My wife’s Cosmo just came in. And I had a peek at it. There was an article called “Super-sneaky Weights loss secrets.” That got me curious. I’ve heard of weight loss secrets before but not super snaky ones. So here are a few secrets I found in there.
End your workout with protein.
This one I really like. They suggest you eat a snack that includes protein if you feel hungry after a workout. And this is the part I agree with “People overestimate the number of calories burned while exercising…” And they usually reward themselves with food that has more calories. It kind of defeats the purpose.
Drink after dinner coffee
This one I’ve never heard. But it could be a way to change the dessert habit. They say to drink decaf coffee after dinner. By doing this, your body will gradually stop craving sugar at the end of a meal.
Give your guy the first bite
How about this one? They tell readers to give their guy the first bite, so that they have less to eat. Well ladies, just make sure you eat enough. We don’t enjoy having dinner with someone that eats like a bird. And if you don’t get enough calories you won’t be much fun to be with.
All that sneaky secret stuff means nothing. If you don’t look after your bodies need, you will struggle with your weight. Listen to your body and see how certain foods make you feel. If you do it right, you will not fall prey to cravings. From that, create your eating plan and build health from the ground up. Do it first for your health and everything will fall in place. If you post a comment on this blog, I’ll email you a free report on how to maximize fat loss using food and physical activity.
