The Best Way To Lose Weight

There is much talk in the media about how more and more people are becoming obese and the negative affect this can have on our lives. The question is what is the best way to go about losing weight? There are so many different weight loss programs being advertised which makes it very hard to know which one to go for. In this article I write about what I consider is the best route to take to help people to shed their excess weight and to eventually reach their ideal target weight.

Article Body:

I have battled with my own weight for much of my adult life. In the past I have tried methods such as crash dieting where I would basically radically reduce the amount I was eating for a number of weeks in the hope that this would work. I had limited success with this approach, at times I did lose quite a lot of the fat but it always seemed to return only a few weeks later, once I had started to eat properly again. This I have read is not exactly the most healthy of routes to take and one in which I eventually gave up on.

I was then quite lucky to receive some very good advice from a friend of mine. He had also had many problems in controlling his own weight and told me about how he had managed to reach a weight he was happy with.

What he had decided to do was to change his whole approach to dieting and weight loss. He had often seen it as one massive choir and effort, an effort that he never truly believed would result in a successful outcome. This he soon realised was a very negative way at looking at things which no doubt was always likely to end with a negative result.

He then decided to turn full circle and to think in a far more positive way. Instead of seeing weight loss as a choir he would see it as a form of hobby. You are no doubt thinking that this is rather strange, well that was what I was thinking when he was explaining it all to me.

Within his overall hobby of losing weight he would have additional hobbies. These included playing tennis, badminton and football. These were sports he had enjoyed playing when he was at college but that he had rarely played since becoming employed. He therefore decided to start to play these sports again whenever he could. His opinion was that if he could put in as much time to his new hobby of losing weight as he did for all of his other hobbies that the results should then be positive.

He set himself goals of where he wanted to be, weight wise, at the end of each month for example and worked hard to attain these goals. The sports that he decided to start playing again not only helped him to lose weight but also helped to improve his social life.

I decided to follow my friends lead and took a similar approach. This is probably not ideal or even suitable for reasons such as health for some people but it certainly helped me and my friend to feel a lot better about ourselves and our weight.
