Losing weight is hard. Dieting is hard. These are facts. So I'm here to give you a little confidence and a little drive to make them a little easier.
Most people know what they need to do, but they don't do it because they don't have someone telling them to do so.
It's a lot easier if you are committed to something, like a sport, to get it done. Why? Because you have someone in a position of authority telling you to do something.
However, when we're faced with our health and healthy choices, we are the boss.
Then, it's a lot harder to go and do something because you are the entity in charge.
I see commercials for fat burning pills and diet supplements all the time. It's true they may work, and they probably help. Indeed, there is no pill or magic formula out there that will melt fat away with absolutely no effort at all.
You can't take any of these and sit on your ass, expecting to lose weight. You need to get a good diet and exercise regiment and stick with it.
If you feel you must take any form of weight loss supplement, I recommend Hydroxycut Hardcore. I used a product called BioBurn D2T, which had one extra ingredient from the old Hydroxycut formula. I lost 30 lbs in 2 weeks.
Don't go out and buy anything just yet, I wasn't just lazing around eating Cheetos, either. I was in the gym for 2 hours a day lifting and running 5 miles, Monday through Friday.
This is me, Senior year weighing in at almost 280.
Here's me at the end of Senior year on spring break, weighing in at 200 even.
As you can tell, I probably lost too much weight. Weight that I lost in under months. Some people in my family felt I did, but don't worry college and the infamous Freshman 15 helped me back up. Sadly, I'm trying to work it all off, again. Just seems I don't have the time like I used to!
However,
I'm here to tell you that YOU can lose weight and all you need is a positive mindset. Of course, I was only 18 at the time. I'm saying that age may have had a big factor in my weight-loss. That doesn't mean you can't lose weight without solid effort.
Some tips on what to do:
o If you asked me what I thought the most important ingredient in weight loss is, I would say time. You can't expect to look good overnight, unless you have the money for liposuction.
o Never give up, Never back Down. Want some inspiration? Watch Never Back Down. This has to be one of the most inspirational movies I've ever seen. Talk about wanting to get off the couch and go do something!
o Eat Healthy. I can't stress it enough, really. You should try a bunch of different things until you find a diet that works. In fact, do what I did and make a collaboration of all the diets and knowledge you've found and make your own.
> I made up a pseudo Atkins diet where I was eating healthy carbs, such as whole grain wheat’s. I would try to eat healthy wherever I was and fight my cravings to eat when I was out. (That's a good way to save money too!)
> Eating small portions throughout the day was also something, I believe, that worked extremely well.
o DRINK TONS OF WATER
> Unless you drink a bathtub full of water, you should be fine. Drink as much of it as often as you can. Never drink anything else, except for skim milk, if you are trying to lose weight.
> It's almost like water is a liquid fat burner, except it's not. IT'S LIQUID LIFE!!
