10 More Weight Loss Tips

By Stephanie Boyle

Ten more weight loss tips, hopefully these are all helping you on this journey to lose weight. Remember it will be difficult but it can be done. Take all these into account or use the ones you have and don't give up.


#41. Be sure to drink your 8 glasses of water a day.

#42. Wait 2 hours before exercising after eating, by doing this you will have more energy and more endurance to do the workout.

#43. Make exercise part of your daily routine, if it becomes a habit, it will not get pushed aside if life gets in the way.

#44. Find an exercise buddy whose fitness level is similar to yours, that way you can pick activities that you will both enjoy and both people can do them at about the same level.

#45. For additional motivation, subscribe to a magazine that includes your sport of choice. If your new activity is tennis, or basketball, subscribe to one of those magazines. Reading about it will make you more likely to want to get out there and do it.


#46. Never let your fitness routine become a routine. If it becomes easy, you should ramp it up. For example if you are walking for 30 minutes at a slow pace, speed it up to a medium speed, extend the time, or even both if you feel up to it.

#47. Exercise isn't just going to the gym. All work you do around the house can be exercise such as mowing the lawn you can put a backpack on to make it a better workout or when you go to the mall or to work, park at the back of the parking lot so you get a little workout walking into and out of work.

#48. Take the stairs instead of an elevator. It helps work you legs and your bottom, plus it can be great cardio if you run up and down a few times.

#49. Don't skip meals, skipping meals will only slow down your metabolism which will make your body want to store all the fat instead of wanting to get rid of it.

#50. Take a multivitamin daily to make sure you are getting all the nutrients needed.
