1)Drastically reduce or eliminate refined carbohydrates from your diet. The list would include most breads, pastas, rice, corn and any snack foods made from these. Anything that comes prepared in a package should be avoided. Substitute more vegetables and salads(light dressing) for the missing bulk.

2)No liquid calories. This would include soft drinks, juice and milk. Don’t put any sugar or heavy cream in your coffee or tea. Learn to love water. Not only does it contain no calories but it helps to cleanse your system in many different ways.

3) Eat heavier in the earlier parts of the day and have a light dinner. No snacks other than raw veggies before you go to bed. Studies have consistently shown that people who eat in this fashion have fewer weight problems.

4)Exercise. If you’re in good shape but never exercise, even a moderate walking program applied consistently will take pounds off fast. More strenuous forms of exercise or recreational sports will do it faster. Just don’t up your calorie intake.

5)Start each meal with a good serving of raw vegetables and salads before you touch anything else. This will fill you up and make you eat smaller meat and potato portions. You probably won’t want anything for dessert other than an apple or orange.

6)Pretend that your television(s) is broke and can’t be fixed for two weeks. Find other things to do. You might be be very surprised to see the effects on your waistline and mental health after a few weeks.

It isn’t hard to lose 10 pounds. It just takes a focused approach and some tweaking of your current habits. If you practice any of these approaches you’ll see progress. Combining two or more of them will see even better results. We’ve all seen stories about formerly obese people who’ve lost 100 pounds. This is a lot easier to do now, before it gets to that, than to have to do more later.

Four ways to lose weight with your laptop.

1) Let your work space become your friend and not your weight gain coach. We all love to eat snacks while surfing the Internet for hours. Snacks are Ok to eat. Eating fresh snacks when sitting at your laptop computer will help you lose weight. Toss the cookies, candy and junk food sitting on your desk in the trash. Now replace them with fresh fruit or veggie’s like apples and carrots. In no time at all, you will feel better about yourself and have more energy. Oh, by the way, did I mention you will also lose weight too.

2) Sometimes, the only thing we move is our eyes, hands and fingers when sitting at our computer. This does little for circulation or to burn calories. The next time you are using your laptop try moving a few more body parts. Pretend you are sitting in front of an old time musical organ. The type that had pedals underneath you pushed to make the sound. Now, as you are using your laptop computer pretend you are sitting at the musical organ. Start pushing those pedals. Lift one foot a few inches from the floor and gently push it back down. Now do the other foot. Do a set of 15-20 reps. Rest, breath and repeat. Do this mini-workout several times an hour. This will help get your circulation going, give you more energy and lose weight. Soon you will be doing this mini-workout during the day without thinking about it.
3) Start drinking acai berry juice along with bottled water when sitting at your laptop computer. Acai berry promotes and contributes to healthy weight loss. Acai berry juice is full of omega fatty acids and heathly fiber. It will jump start your metabolism and suppress your appetite. This in turn will help you burn more calories with less effort. It can make you feel so energized, that you may want to drop by the gym, on the way home from work.
4) Change your Windows desktop background and screen saver on your laptop to reflect images of positive affirmations. This can give you a can-do attitude, help you lose weight and make you feel good all day long.
