Many women feel that because they are female it’s going to be harder for them to lose weight. Personally, I don’t believe it because losing weight for most people is hard, no matter what their gender is.
So why is it so hard? It’s hard because we’ve all been lied to for years and years, and now it’s time to learn the truth.
Did you know that exercising too much will not help you to lose weight? You will very likely lose some initially, but soon you will plateau. Not good if you have a bit of weight to lose.
Instead you should be doing this (this is an example of what you can do):
Exercise for 30 minutes, three times a week. The first 15 minutes will be spent doing resistance training (lunges, pushups, chin ups, weights, squats, and many more). The second 15 minutes will be spent doing intervals. Intervals mean you’re going hard for a minute or so (these timings will vary as you get fitter) then slow your pace for a minute or so (enough to get your breath back), alternating for 15 minutes.
As for nutrition, please forget diet pills! They don’t work and they never have. If they were so great, then why are there so many overweight people around these days? Don’t waste your money!
Also, you should never, ever skip breakfast, no matter how much you detest eating breakfast. This is by far the most important part of your weight loss program. If you don’t eat breakfast, then you’re not getting your metabolism to work for you by giving it a daily kick start. Instead you are teaching your body to become more efficient at storing fat. If you want to lose weight and not gain it, then eat breakfast. Also, never, ever skip meals for the same reason.
Ideally, you should eat every 3 hours or so. This equates to around 5 to 6 meals per day.
