How to be slimmer

Well there are many ways to make yourself slimmer. The way I have found to become slimmer is to find a healthy lifestyle that you will enjoy for the rest of your life. Find a few activities that you enjoy doing and rotate them from day to day. Make a workout schedule and follow it strictly. If you just pick one exercise to do then you will get bored with it and quit with your exercise program. Unless you just really love doing that one activity. For example, I like to run, hike, swim and bike. I will spread it out through my week and have an exercise to do for one hour per day. Go online, and search for exercises to do, find a few you like, and try them out. To become, a healthier better looking person, you must be proactive and do some research. Put a little work into it from the start and it will make it easier. I like leaving inspirational notes on my bathroom mirror to help me get through the day and to make sure I exercise.

The reason I said to exercise earlier is for cardiovascular health. Not only will it make your heart strong, but also it will burn tons of fat and calories. You have to burn about 3500 calories to lose one pound of fat. It is recommended by doctors that you exercise for one hour four to five days per week. Cardiovascular health is key especially in light of America’s obesity epidemic. Getting your heart rate up for an hour four to five days a week makes your heart muscle stronger. The more you exercise your muscle, the less it has to work to carryout all its functions. Those who get there heart rate up on a schedule like this tend to have lower heart rates. That is because they have exercised their muscle.

Diet is also a key component into becoming a slimmer healthier being. The nutritional facts are on the packages of food for a reason (not only because the FDA said so but so you can keep track of what you eat). Not to mention the various free online resources that are at your disposal to keep track of your nutritional intake. Keep a log of what you eat and its content. I try to keep it under 1500 calories to lose weight. It is different with different people. I can maintain my weight by eating between 2000 and 2500 calories per day. Also, cut out trans fat and saturated fat. The less fat you eat the less you will gain. Stick to eating meats such as chicken and fish and stay away from red meat and pork. Chicken has minimal calories and fat content. And remember what your mother said and eat all your vegetables. So all it takes is a little determination and motivation. So get out there and get your workout on!!!!
