Sleeping Pattern
Brigham Young University’s researchers suggest that people who follow a proper sleeping pattern can manage to keep their body fat in control.
This may sound weird, but following an incorrect sleeping pattern can influence your decision making.
Less sleep can also result in weight gain.
Sleeping for a fewer number of hours can trigger hunger.
Your diet plan can go for a ride if you get inadequate sleep.
So, health experts recommend people to sleep for at least seven to nine hours during the night.
But if you cross nine hours, again that can trigger weight gain.
What time do you need to get to sleep in-order to wake-up by 6 AM?
Can you manage to go to bed by 11 PM every night?
Understand your own sleeping pattern, and try to answer these questions.
Then, start following a new sleeping pattern before those seven initial weight loss days.
If you are one of those individuals who love to press the snooze button, you should ask your wife, girlfriend, or parents to wake you up on time every morning till your body starts responding to your new sleeping schedule.
Say no to working night shifts, at-least during the first seven days of weight loss.
Exercise Pattern
Cardiovascular exercises and strength training exercises are the best for weight loss.
Strength training may require an expert’s assistance.
But cardiovascular exercises like swimming, cycling, and running are something that you can start any time, even if you have set a small budget for your weight loss plan.
Around 45 minutes of cardio exercise every day can prove to be good enough, and you will feel better while looking at yourself in the mirror after seven days.
As your body gets more used to exercising, you can increase the time to an hour or more.
However, if you are looking for the best results, it is advisable to join a gym and hire an experienced trainer.
Forget about the unsuccessful weight loss attempts you’ve made in the past!
Surveys suggest that every month, hundreds of people join the gym, health clubs and create timetables for exercises.
But, most of the people get exhausted on day one and stop following their weight loss plans from day two.
So, even if you have failed before, there is no need to worry. Y
ou can wipe the slate clean, and start from scratch, and face those obstacles in a better way than before.
Just try to avoid mistakes that made you with your previous exercise plan.
Your willingness to lose weight is enough to help you reach your goal!
Set Targets That Are Achievable
Why do you wish to reduce your weight?
Do you wish to impress your loved ones?
Do you wish to use those old garments by reducing your weight?
Is it that your doctor has advised getting rid of excess weight?
These questions will offer energy and motivation for your mind to move forward.
Make sure that you set exercise and food-related targets that are achievable.
If you know that you cannot wake-up at 6 AM in the morning to workout, set the alarm for 7 AM from day one.
If you know that you cannot run for more than thirty minutes, don’t allow more than thirty minutes in your timetable for the run and don’t push yourself too early.
Make A List Of Everything You’ll Need Before You Start
Every task requires the set of the right gear.
Make sure that you purchase and keep all the necessary health-related beverages, nutritional food items, shoes, track pants, and t-shirts for exercising.
Make a list of all the possible items that you may need during these seven days in which you plan to start your weight loss journey.
If you are planning to join a gym or fitness center to perform exercises, make sure you pay your membership fees in advance.
On the other hand, if you plan to exercise at home, buy all the necessary equipment well in advance before these first seven days.
Plan Exercises And Diet Changes That Suit Your Lifestyle
Most of the time, people fail to follow an exercise routine or diet plan because they fail to fit in their day to day life.
As mentioned earlier, plan something that you know your body can sustain.
You may feel tired and stressed on day one and two, but stay strong and survive during those first two days like your life depends on it, because it very may well!
Later, you will start feeling great about your routine.
Celebrate When You Reach A Milestone
Celebrating your achievements will offer energy to keep going, freshen-up your mind and motivate you even further.
So, whenever you reach your first goal, try to celebrate by rewarding yourself.
Buy a new gadget for yourself, buy new garments, or spend a day at a spa and opt for a body massage.
If you follow all the food, sleeping and exercise pattern tips along with the additional instructions, you are sure to end-up losing ten pounds or even more in those seven days.
Then keep pushing forward!
Try This Peculiar ‘Carb-Trick’ That Melts Up To 1 Pound Each Day
”All this by Flavor-Pairing?” I asked.
I met an old friend for lunch last month and I was super impressed with how good she looked.
She said, “It’s not so much about the Flavor-Pairing, but more about how it re-awakens what the Japanese call, ‘the weight loss doubling molecule’ which signals 22-hour a day fat-burning effect in the female body.”
Even though I was skeptical, I’ve been struggling with my weight over the last few years, so I gave it a shot and watched the same video she did.
Well, it’s only a couple weeks later and you know what they say about how “you can’t transform your body overnight”…
They’re right – it actually took me 16 days to lose 22 pounds.
Now it’s my girlfriends asking ME what I’M doing differently 💅
