Michael Beeler’s Tips on Loosing Weight

 

1. Never skip the MOST important meal of the day, BREAKFAST!! Eating early in the day keeps us from “starvation eating” later on. But it also jump-starts your metabolism.

2. When going to store don’t drive around looking for the closet parking space, park as far away and walk in. At work take the stairs instead of the elevator.

3. Take a nutritional lunch to work, eat it at your desk and take a 20 minute walk at lunch.

4. For all the stay at home moms. When cleaning up the kitchen do some body squats and pushups off the kitchen counters.

5. Eat often: eating many well planned low calorie meals a day helps you keep from snacking and make you feel less hungry.

6. Drink lots of water. It’ll help with your flexibility, strength, and well-being, and it helps all of your internal components with flushing out your system. 64 to 96 ounces of water a day.

7. Write down your goals. Studies show that people who write down goals are more likely to achieve them.

8. Don’t get hung up on scale weight. If you step on a scale, it just gives you a number. It doesn’t tell you how much muscle and fat you have.

9. Eat nuts, they provide good, unsaturated fats (good fats) and a good source of protein and fiber. A handful of nuts are healthy, low-glycemic snack. Great on salads.

10. Always warm-up and cool-down after exercising. It warms up your working muscles and connective tissue, heart, and lungs. Helps to prevent injuries and to allow you to work at a high degree of intensity later on. 5-10 minutes.

11. Choose lean, high-quality proteins like egg whites, chicken, lean red meat. Choose cuts of “round” and “loin”
