Weight Loss Tips - Starting off? Here's my tips, add yours!!!

Weight Loss Tips

These are what I suggest, they can be a difficult for some but well worth it.
1. Stop drinking anything but water, I know it hurts but it's worth it. Put a slice of orange or lemon to make it taste better (I drink straight water all day, every day). Drink at least a gallon of water per day.
2. Stop eating white flour foods, switch to whole grain/whole wheat foods. Remove white flour which causes blood sugar spikes will allow your blood sugar to be better maintained through the day. When you're buying the whole wheat/whole grain foods make sure the first ingredient doesn't say enriched flour, it must say whole wheat or whole grain.
3. Eat 6-8 small meals per day.
4. Eat more protein!!! Chicken breasts and water packed tuna or salmon are AWESOME! If you ate 4,000 calories a day of whole wheat pasta and chicken breast or tuna you can not imagine how much food this is!!! 50 chips a hoy cookies is 4,000 calories. I used to eat this every night before bed... Soy protein has been shown to help increase fat burning, it's hard to find but I use Mannatech GlycoLEAN GlycoSlim.
5. Drink 3 8oz glasses of skim milk per day.
6. You don't need a gym, just Exercise!
