The Lazy Man’s Guide To Losing Pounds

If only there were a lazy, easy way to lose weight without killing yourself and without jogging around the neighborhood.

If you think your are going to lose weight in a boot camp, think again - it’s not going to work. You are probably like me and many others that work on a computer all day, here are some lazy weight loss tips to get you going. You heard right, lazy and lose weight in the same sentence.

1. Walking

This sounds too easy but it’s true. You need to start walking again. This is not the same as walking into the kitchen to get some snacks. This is real walking, even power walking if you should become inspired to.

Walk for at hour first thing in the morning, even if the weather is’nt playing along, go to a mall. The shops are not open yet, but the mall is open early and you can walk there.

If you don’t look out, the power walkers, who run the mall might run you over. You might also become a mall power walker and burn more calories at the same time.

2. Swimming

Do you own a lake or a swimming pool? Alright, maybe this is going to sound like more work than it’s worth but it’s worth it. Community centers, YMCAs and YWCAs and some gyms have pools. Swimming is a great way to get an aerobic workout.

If you haven’t been in the water in a while it may sound like to much work, but it’s fun. If you swim a few times a week you will burn fat.

3. Eat more meals

If you eat more meals but smaller portions your body will be able to process calories better while it’s working to digest food. This means that if you only eat 2 or 3 meals a day your metabolic rate will be slow.

4. Don’t snack in front of the TV or computer

If you break the habit of having a snack around all the time you will shed weight from your stomach. You can say no to yourself.

5. Substitute

Change out the bad food, for the good. This is so easy to do once you get the hang of it. Start eating more fresh fruit when you want to eat something sweet. Stay away from the French fries and chocolate shakes. In fact, stay away from McDonald’s and Burger King for awhile. Start including more unprocessed foods in your diet. This gives your body something to do while you are sitting at the computer.

These are the lazy ways to help you to start losing weight. All the work is being done, while you’re not doing very much. You have to try to do some activity for greater success.
