Tip of the Week
Diet Write
If you're trying to lose weight, (and who isn't these days?) keep
a food diary. In it, write down every morsel that goes in your
mouth each day. You'll be surprised at how much more you eat than
you think you do. It also makes you aware of your eating. Being
aware is key to losing weight. Do this for a week to become aware
of what you may not have realized goes into your mouth. Then
modify your portions and think twice before taking "just one
bite".
Question of the
Week
Question:
Hi, my name is Scott, and I am starting a diet. I just recently
bought diet pills. Are they safe and do they work? Thanks for you
help, ahead of time for any Information you can provide me with.
Answer:
We don't
like to recommend taking diet pills to anyone. Unless you are
morbidly obese and under a doctor's supervision, there are better
ways to lose weight. Diet and exercise is the age-old maxim for
losing weight. If the body takes in more calories than it works
off, it stores the excess as fat. There is no magic pill.
If you are serious about losing weight, begin an exercise program
and modify your diet. We know. It sounds easy. It is not. That's
why there are so many diet hucksters out there selling instant
weight loss to hopeful fat people. Start with easy walking and
increase time and distance in small increments each week. For
instance, start with 10-minute walks and increase to 20-minutes
over a few weeks. Increase intensity as you gather strength. Build
from there. Find sports and activities you like that keep you off
the couch and moving. Mow your lawn; clean out the garage; take up
tennis or racquet ball. Cut fat in your diet and you will
automatically cut calories. Cut down on portion sizes. Check out
our home page for different ways to eat and exercise for the way
to healthy weight loss. Diet pills may work for a while but not
without side effects. For lifetime weight control, the answer is
diet and exercise.
Sincerely,
The HFT Staff
