Physical Health - Lose Some Weight
We all have I, or at least most of us. Those friendly love handles, the cuddly look, the acceptable middle age spread, squeezing into the size 14 when we should be a happy 16. Perhaps we just go big and happy. They do say, however, that so many people have become overweight the problem has reached epidemic proportions. Growing evidence shows that being overweight makes it more likely you will be prey to cancer, gout, gallbladder disease and osteoarthritis.
A bit everyday is the answer
There is a mountain of diet sheets around all promising to trim off the unwanted in a reasonable amount of time. From eating all meat to eating no meat, any fat to the right fat, delving into dieting is a bewildering game. On wonder some say diets are not worth following or they plain just don’t work.
We all need food. It is the fuel to keep us going. Unfortunately we are eating too much and taking in too many calories. Takeaways and going out for meals are big social events and there are many television programmes encouraging us to do exciting things with food. All good fun but it does not alter the fact that many of us are carrying too many excess pounds.
So what can we do? If you can find a diet that works for you, do it. Reasonably clever people have thought out the majority of the diets and most of their advice is sound.
If no diets work try going to the doctors and work with their dietician. Join organisations that monitor you. If you don’t like any of those ideas try looking at what you eat each day and half this amount at each meal. Try using a smaller plate to put food on .If you have difficulty limiting the number of crisps or biscuits you eat do not have them in the house.
The number of ways you can lose weight is endless. You have to find what makes sense for you and follow the advice given. As a general rule if you eat small amounts of good, healthy, nutritious food you will not be doing yourself much harm.
