Tyler Texas Weight Loss Tips

Tyler Texas Weight Loss Tips

Although the weight loss industry would tell you different, shedding pounds can be difficult.  There are so many potholes in the road of best intentions that adhering to any plan sometimes seems a futile attempt.  Luckily, there are some simple things you can do to kick start your weight loss in Tyler, Texas that don’t require much effort or money.

Perhaps the simplest thing is to increase your water intake.  Your body needs water, and not the kind that is tainted with syrups and sugars.  The standard advice of eight 8 ounce glasses a day, or 64 ounces, is a good place to start, but is probably not accurate for the majority of the population.  You need to consume, in ounces, your body weight divided by 2.  So if you weigh 200 pounds, you should strive for 100 ounces of water per day.  If you think you are hungry, reach for the water first; you could just be thirsty.

Snack on fruits or veggies instead of chips and cookies.  If preparation time is a barrier, consider purchasing fruit that is already cut up.  A simple fruit salad makes a great substitute for a hamburger at lunch.  You’ll have more energy without a bloated, overly full feeling and the sugar you get from the fruit is in a form that your body can use.  Give the Tyler, Texas fast food joints a break for a month and see if the scales, and your wallet, don’t show positive results.
