Quick Weight Loss Action Plan

Do you want to lose 6 pounds weight quickly? While many diets are geared at people who want to lose 20 pounds or more, the plan I´m presenting here will help you lose 6 pounds quickly in perhaps in just one week.

The first thing you want to do is clear out your pantry of all the foods that make you fat. Clean out your refrigerator and throw things away. Donate the packaged food in your pantry to a local food bank.

Then, go to the grocery store and buy the following sixteen things only:

1. Whole wheat bread
2. Tuna
3. Any and all fruits
4. Any and all vegetables
5. 8 oz. steak
6. Two chicken breasts
7. Salad vegetables
8. Balsamic vinegar
9. Special K Cereal
10. Skim milk
11. Brown rice
12. Instant oatmeal (not the sweetened packaged kind though)
13. Sliced turkey breast
14. 3 servings of fish
15. Low fat yogurt
16. Eggs

Using these foods as the basis for your diet, write out a diet plan for the next seven days. After that, you will be fully committed to sticking to it. Part of the motivation for clearing out your kitchen ahead of time is that there will not be any food that you can "cheat" with.

Next, you want to get a pedometer and make sure that you walk at least 10,000 steps each day. That may seem like a lot, but here are some ways that you can get extra steps in.

1. Park far away from the front door of your work or a store. Not only will you get extra steps in, but you will have a much easier time parking.

2. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. If you work above the fourth floor, get off of the elevator at least two floors early and walk the rest of the way.

3. When you have to contact a colleague at work, donít phone or email them, walk over to their office or desk.

4. If you take the bus or other form of mass transportation, get off a stop or two early and walk.

5. Walk the dog. If you donít have a dog, volunteer to walk the neighborís dog.

6. Take a walk before dinner. Not only will you increase the number of steps you take that day, but a walk before dinner will reduce your appetite.

Finally, try to drink at least eight, 8 ounce glasses of water each day when you are trying to lose weight. You can do this by drinking one liter of water at work and another liter at home. If you don´t like water plain, it is okay to substitute unsweetened iced tea or sugar free lemonade or punch.

It is possible to lose 6 pounds in a week. Try radically altering your diet, walking more, and drinking a substantial amount of water. It´s not a lifetime that you will be restricted to this plan, it´s just a week. And, you´ll be able to lose 6 pounds in that time.

Healthy Eating Habits for Healty Weight Loss!

For many people, eating habits are tied to other daily activities – some people find it almost impossible not to eat while watching TV, for example. Many people are also conditioned to eat in response to certain emotional triggers, such as boredom, loneliness, fatigue, anger or anxiety. These habits can be extremely difficult to break, and the only way to go about it is form new habits through daily repetition.

While reisisting the pull of a familiar eating habit can be very difficult the first time around, it becomes progressively easier, and within a month or so of consistent effort it can be replaced by a
healthier habit. In weight-loss circiles, this strategy has come to be known as "behavior modification." The following tips can be used to help kick unhealthy eating behaviors:

•Eat at least four meals per day, spaced about three to four hours apart, in order to keep your metabolism elevated. Avoid skipping breakfast, and make your meals either about equal in size or decreasing a bit in portion size as the day goes on – dinner should never be your largest meal of the day.

•Eat slowly, putting down your fork in between bites and not picking it up again until you have swallowed; chew each bite of food at least 10 times before swallowing.

•Settle on one place at home (or at the office) and try to eat all of your meals there as much as possible. This alone can help prevent mindless snacking in the kitchen or at your desk.

•Eat mindfully – avoid engaging in any other activities, such as watching television, working or talking on the phone at the same time.

•Avoid storing food anywhere in the house except for the kitchen. Keeping snack foods like cookies in plain view on the counters can encourage snacking – put them away in a pantry cupboard.

•When shopping, make a detailed list beforehand and stick to it. Avoid buying junk food and try to replace it with healthier alternatives without sacrificing flavor.

•When eating family meals, try to keep the serving dishes in the kitchen rather than placing them in the middle of the table.

•Use smaller plates: Studies have demonstrated that the same size portion on a smaller plate actually appears larger, and this can help you avoid overeating.

•Make a habit of not entirely cleaning your plate, even if you just leave one bite of everything behind. Most people are condiditoned to eat until their plate is clean, rather than when they feel full, and this can help correct that habit.

All of the techniques above can be helpful in ditching unhealthy eating routines and establishing new,
healthier habits. These techniques also a must for a successful and healthy weight loss plan!
