There are literally thousands of weight loss programs out there
today - which shows that losing weight is an almost universal
preoccupation! When you examine what many of these programs are
all about, though, you can see why people who lose weight
typically are not able to keep it off for good. Unlike natural
weight loss, many weight loss programs emphasize special
products such as meal replacements or supplements. The problem
is that no one can stay with this type of program for life - and
as soon as you get off the weigh loss program, the weight is
likely to creep back on, and you're back where you started.
Natural weight loss is different. With natural weight loss, you
use the simplest principle of all - the fact that, in order to
lose weight, you must use more calories than you take in. You
make this principle work in your favor, and you can do this in
one of two ways. You can either eat less - and that doesn't mean
cutting out or minimizing entire food groups, but just eating
less of whatever you happen to be eating - or you can exercise
more. To be really successful, of course, you should do both.
To limit how much you eat, the simplest and most natural
technique is this: eat only when you're hungry, and when you're
not hungry anymore, stop eating. It sounds simple and logical -
but it's amazing how few of us actually do this! This natural
weight loss technique has one great advantage - it teaches you
to listen to your body. Given the chance, your body will tell
you when and how much you need to eat. No book can tell you
that. After all, your needs vary from day to day. Some people
have a 'hungry day' followed by a 'not hungry' day, and that's
waht's natural for them. 'Naturally' thin people are those who
habitually listen to their bodies.
The natural way to exercise is to do it often, but at a low
intensity. Throughout most of human history, people didn't visit
the gym, but they did move around all day, every day - they
walked or rode everywhere, for one thing. And most of these
people were not overweight. You can do the same. One way to do
this is to establish a certain 'minimum distance' for driving,
and stick to it. For example, you can decide never to drive if
your destination is closer than ten blocks. Of course, there
will be exceptions, but just following a policy like this most
of the time will inject a lot of extra exercise into your day.
