Collection of Tricks and Easy Ways to Lose Weight

If I told you that movie stars suffer also from cellulite I wouldn’t make you feel any better, right?

I am just trying to point out a thing which is obvious to us already: once you get it, it’s hard to get rid of it. The more you wait before you take action, the longer it will stay with you.

There are afew things that can facilitate the ‘getting rid of cellulite’ process. Obviously, exercise is the first thing, and losing weight is the second one. According to other sites, however, neither exercise not fat loss will decrease the cellulite. FALSE. They both do, as many of you already know. If you start exercising a lot, particularly for those areas, you reduce it. I’ve been there, done that, witnessed it.

If you read websites and articles you will realize that everyone disagrees. And if you make a list with the FALSE ways that help you get rid of the orange peel effect, you will be left with nothing to do. To summarize for you: there’s nothing you can do, if diet, exercise, water, massage, laser therapy, etc, do not help.

It’s wrong. All women know it, because the moment you take action against cellulite, you see the results.

What is cellulite actually? It is an accumulation of fat, fluid and toxins trapped into a hardened network of elastin and collagen fibres in the deeper levels of your skin.

The causes? Many, including poor diets and hormones.

If you can get rid of it? Yes, you can.

What I started doing and worked, no matter what others say about these techniques?

Exercise: lots of exercise for legs and thighs, especially the ones that build lean muscle. Try yoga or winsor pilates. Why some athletes have cellulites? Unless your exercises focus on those particular areas, you will never get rid of it! Anyway, forget the athletes. Look at some of your skinny or good looking friends who don’t have it. Some of them had it but now they don’t anymore. Ask them the secret. Exercise they will say.

Losing weight: You will see the difference! Or you think that when you lose weight you don’t lose at all from certain areas? You think you can end up with very thin arms and a tight butt and stomach and still have all the kilos on your thighs? I doubt it.

Massage: Whoever told you that it doesn’t work, doesn’t know what he/she is talking about. Whenever I start my own massage routine or use the electric ‘machine’ for massage, it helps me. Do it every day, five to ten minutes, even fifteen for one leg.

Creams: They do help, especially combined with massage. Ask the ones who use them regularly! I did so for a month, before summer and I could see the difference! Many of my friends use creams and see the difference. First, in only two weeks, your skin becomes a lot softer, then the orange peel starts disappearing. I have tried Dove Firming Intensive Cellulite Gel-Cream for 10 bucks. There are others too.

Hot and cold showers: They help. Maybe not directly, but the Scottish showers always helped metabolism.

Plastic bags: It sounds weird, doesn’t it? Well, a ‘tactic’ used here, in Romania, by young girls, was to wrap their legs in plastic bags or something similar and then exercise or ride a bike, even sleep. The area perspires thus gets rid of your extra water and the toxins retained in the cellulite tissues. Try it once and see the drops of sweat!

I’m not taking money for this advice, but if I were to take, I would guarantee the results. If you combine all of the above there is no possible way in which you can cheat the fat on your button or legs!

Not today. Today it’s gone and you want to enjoy your pasta still.

But be ready for tomorrow. Get positive! You will defintely not start a crazy diet to famish yourself! You will simply apply some of the easy tricks I shared with you. You will have fun tomorrow by making a change!

Changes are fun, aren’t they? Routine is boring, and all that eating and living in front of the TV became too much. So making a change is like having a small vacation.

When you wake up, imagine the energy you will have! You are full of life, ready to start. Remember: no sweets! Try lots of teas and bubbly water (if you need pops), eat until almost full but only good calories. Do not famish yourself!

You should find 10-15 minutes to exercise a bit, so you can actually feel the adrenaline being released into your body. Force yourself a little, and try to touch those muscles to see how nice they feel when they are like steel. Don’t worry – soon you will get there!

Encourage yourself!

Go shopping! Not to the fast food place, but to the super market. Or go shopping for clothes. If you shop for food – which might be a wonderful idea – admire the sweets on the shelves and don’t buy! That will give you more confidence! Buy instead any veggies or fruits that you feel like eating. Instead of chocolate, have a fruit yogurt – preferably a diet one. They will definitely make you feel better! Get ham, get white cheese, olives, lemons, limes, chicken breast, or fish. If you buy bread, remember that rye bread is the best, so go for it. Do not have more than two slices a day though! Buy juice without sugar: grapefruit, orange, apple, whatever you like.

When you get home, don’t start eating everything. But if you want to try everything however, take one bite from whatever you please (the good things that you’ve bought, that is). That will calm you down. Remember, your plan today is not to lose 5 pounds, but to change your frame of mind and get yourself used to the new life!

The best way is not to lose tens of pounds a week and then put them all back on. Your goal is to have fun with your new diet and feel the change in you. Your goal is to feel that today you took the step towards losing one extra pound, one step towards building a beautiful body, one step towards feeling your body clean again.

So go for it and stop whining! Boost up your morale tomorrow!

I ain’t gonna put a picture of a chocolate because that would start me right away!

Have you ever smoked? In case you haven’t – good for you – then you should know that eating healthy and giving up chocolate is easier than quitting smoking. And that should make you feel better.

Chocolate is addictive. I don’t know why – maybe because it causes your body to realease endorphines, the ‘happy’ fellows. If I don’t have a chocolate or a bar one day, I can survive the next day. But the first day is always hard.

Of course, I tried to trick myself into eating chocolate without sugar, but that doesn’t really help. What you need to do is to break the addiction!

I could tell you to have only one square a day and everything will be fine. But we both know that one square will never do. It’s at least four squares!

There are no tricks in breaking an addiction, but just giving up the idea of chocolate. Try it at least for a while. Pretend it’s a game. Pretend you don’t even know what chocolate tastes like. And make sure you have no sweets around the house – not where you can see them, at least! And if the word ‘chocolate’ crosses your mind, find something to do: fast!

This is maybe one of the number one factors why you do not lose weight, if you do eat properly.

Normally, the growing hormone is responsible for growing in children, but once you become an adult, it is produced less and less. The body stops producing it when you are around fifty.

This hormone plays with the fats in such a way so that you remain fit.

So how can you stimulate the production of the growing hormone? There are a few tricks and a few other nutritional supplements. First, it is produced while you sleep, and the maximum quantity is released 90 minutes after you have fallen asleep. Exercise also stimulates the production, even more if you exercise 15 minutes before going to bed.

Aminoacids are the most responsible for stimulating the production of growing hormones. For example, omitine and arginine. These two aminoacids form a very strong connections and they can be found in similar foods: nuts, popcorn, gelatine, chocolate, raisins, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, and all the food rich in proteins.

It’s funny how all of the above help you both lose weight and put on weight, isn’t it?

As a conclusion, if you don’t want to risk it, try getting a nutritional supplement that already contains the two aminoacids. Or eat small quantities of nuts, raisins, and seeds. The body needs them anyway and if you are careful and don’t overdo it, it’s fine.

First, unless prescribed by your doctor, do not take it on your own. As a nutritional supplement it is not reccomended. Instead, try to get it from food.

Seaweed, any sea food, and onions are very rich in iodine.

There is also salt with iodine but I do not reccomend overdoing it because too much salt is bad for your body. Very bad even! The smallest thing that can happen is to make your body retain too much water. As for the worst things, there are too many, including increasing your blood pressure.
