Fastest Way To Lose Weight - Diet And Exercise

By Benjamin R. Ehinger

Why is everybody searching for the fastest way to lose weight? Why is there always some fad coming out and spreading out like a plague? The fastest way to lose weight is diet and exercise, that is if you want to keep it off, and there are certain diets and exercises that are better than others.

If you are looking for a great diet, then you should try what they call moderation. When people begin over indulging in sweets, fats, carbohydrates, or anything else they end up gaining weight because there is left over energy that is not burned. It is also horrible for you to cut carbs or fat completely. Your body needs both of them and you just need to know how and were to get them from.

One thing to remember with your diet is to eat 5 small meals a day instead of 3 larger meals. This will help your metabolism speed up, which will help you burn more fat and more calories faster. Plus this will help you keep it off and continue to lose unneeded fat.

As far as exercises are concern, running, jogging, or walking are the best choices to lose weight fast. Running specifically will help to burn the most fat and the most calories. You should ignore what some say about running because it is no harder on your knees than everyday walking.

The key is to make sure that you get at least 30 minutes of aerobic exercise 3 times a week. This is necessary only to maintain your current body shape. Of course, if you are not currently working out, then you will lose some weight if you do the minimum of 3 weekly sessions of 30 minutes of aerobic exercise. If you really want to lose weight, then you should perform 4 or more sessions of 45 minutes of aerobic exercise.

This may take some time in order to work up to and you may be discouraged at first, but understand that if you go from no working out to even 15 minutes a few times a week you are taking a step in the right directions. From there you will be able to work up to 30 minutes a day and all the way to 45 minutes a day over time. Allow yourself 8 - 10 good weeks to get there and you will see great progress. The key is to stick to your workout plan and make it a habit.

So now you know that the fastest way to lose weight is the old fashion way, diet and exercise. There is no need for you to try out fad diets or try to use workout plans that don't work. Stick to your plan to exercise and eat right and after about eight weeks you will see results. You should lose around 1-3 pounds a week, anymore than this will be unhealthy unless it is the first few weeks.
