No More Crash Dieting

The big buzz right now is to lose weight fast & lose weight now! It is vital that we learn the proper way to eat, instead of going on perpetual diets and that we definitely start to make life style changes. The only way to do it now or to do it fast is to start now and start fast .... eating right!

The things to start now and start fast, are drinking lots of water (6 to 8 glasses a day) which washes out the toxins and fat as weight is lost and add daily exercise. Eat lots of fresh fruits and vegetables (5 to 9 servings a day) and take 1 day at a time instead of rushing the process.

The next thing that we can do every day to help us to reach our weight loss goals quicker is to take our time and really chew every bite thoroughly and to deliberately enjoy it - which will help to fill us up quicker and then we will be satisfied with less food.

Also, let us educate ourselves on the basics of nutrition, weight loss and exercise and find the things that work best for our bodies then perform appropriate exercises for our body at least 3 times a week.

Above all let us pray for God’s help. The Bible says that without God, we can do nothing (John 15:5), but we can do all things through Christ that strengthens us (Philippians 4:13) - because Jesus is The Way, The Truth, and The Life (John 14:6).
