How to Lose 10 Lbs Fast

1.  Get Motivated!  Hire a personal trainer and set a goal with a date, enter a contest or challenge, make a bet with a friend or co-worker. Take action and find someone or something to motivate you. 2. Reduce or Eliminate Starches-The number one rule to permanent, quick weight loss is to severely reduce (one fist sized serving a day) or eliminate starchy foods such as pasta, bread, rice, potatoes, cereal and beans, yes beans too! These foods contain a ton of sugar waiting to invade your body, cause you to over release insulin and drive your body into fat storage. Yes, all carbohydrates turn into sugar inside your body and believe it or not starches contain more sugar than any other foods! 3. Exercise Daily-You have to MOVE! It could be as simple as taking an easy 10 minute walk after dinner each night, performing calisthenics at home or jumping into a class at a local gym but you have to MOVE! If you have not been working out then start easy and work your way up, don't be in a rush and go at your own pace. If you have been working out then step it up and either workout a little harder or completely change what you are doing.Change will bring change! 4. Eat! Guess what? You have to EAT to lose. Yes, you do. You need to eat 3 healthy meals a day and 2 snacks. Snacks are "mini meals" strategically placed throughout the day to starve off HUNGER and SUGAR cravings as well as STIMULATE your metabolism. Try to have something healthy about every 3 hours. Eat less as the day goes on by making Breakfast your largest meal and Dinner your smallest, this way you have all day to burn off breakfast and your body can digest a small dinner overnight. 5. Reduce or Eliminate Sugar-Sugar is the leading cause of obesity in the country. You can increase the amount of healthy fats and protein you consume to make up for the sugars you are lowering. Proteins and fats give you satiety and you will quickly see sugar cravings and hunger disappear when you include more of them in your diet. So, what do you eat? 1) Include a healthy protein at each meal. Foods like chicken, fish and seafood, turkey, red meat and eggs provide your body with all the essential amino acids it needs. Some people need just little protein at each meal and others need a lot. 2) Include fresh vegetables at each meal. Vegetables are a great source of fiber and nutrients. They are very low in calories and they are hard to over eat. Some people need a lot of vegetables and some just need a little. 3) Include a healthy fat at each meal. Healthy fats such as olive oil, coconut oil, butter-yes butter, nuts and seeds, avocados and nut butters such as almond butter need to be included in moderation at each meal. So if you are a vegetarian eat a ton of fresh vegetables and a small amount of protein and healthy fats. If you are a carnivore eat a ton of meats and a small amount of fresh vegetables and healthy fats. Eat less as the day goes on, exercise and find someone to work with you or motivate you towards your goal.
