Set Small Goals To Lose 10 Pounds And A Dress Size

Get a piece of paper and a pen. Write down our goal of losing 10 pounds and one dress size. The amount of weight necessary to lose a dress size is approximately 10-15 pounds. It won't take months to do this. You can reasonably lose 10 pounds in 30-60 days. It's unreasonable to try and drop a size in a week. You'll do more harm than good and the results will not last.

We are going to focus on our goal. Let's do some simple math. We have to burn more calories than we eat to lose weight. There are 3,500 calories in a pound. Hypothetically you can lose a pound a day if you burned that many calories. Some people recommend cutting back 500 calories a day. After a week's time you would have lost a pound.

One week, one pound. Pretty good.

Planning is the easy part. Now you have to do it. There are a few ways to do it though. They don't require drastic lifestyle changes.

And contrary to what you've been led to believe by the diet soft drink makers; drinking diet sodas is not part of a successful weight loss plan. You can do a search on Google and read the latest research. But basically, an ingredient in diet sodas keeps you from feeling full so they lead you to overeating. And when we are trying to cut our caloric intake this is not as good as it seems.

Ok, so how can we lose a pound a week? We want small realistic goals. A small goal to shoot for is adding some physical activity to your day. A short 15-30 minute brisk walk is a start. Try and do it 2-3 times a week until you build it into a new habit. Once it becomes a habit then you will keep it a part of your life.

Small changes can make a big difference in your waist line and your life. If 500 calories is hard to achieve, shoot for a smaller more manageable decrease that you can live with and build up from there. Try and cut out 100 to 200 calories a day. 100 calories a day and you'll lose about 10 pounds a year. 200 calories, about 20 pounds a year. 300, 30 lbs. 400, 40 lbs. You get the idea.

If you starve yourself you're not going to make lasting changes. Eat often so you won't go hungry. Eating 5-6 small meals a day is the new recommendation to keep your metabolism running and burning calories.

These quick ideas will help you lose 10, 20, or even 30 pounds and drop a dress size or two. Set a goal and set your mind on achieving it. Reach a small goal and then set a bigger one and then keep going. You can do it.
