The Golden Rule of Weight Loss

There is a golden rule of weight loss, if you didn't know it!~

You can't expect to lose weight if you are immobile during the day, yet eating the same calories as if you were moving around?

We all know this, it's common sense. Yet many of us find that we eat more during the day when we're working because we're bored or because we seek some small grain of happiness in our daily life. However, the Golden Rule of Weight Loss Should Be:

The less you move, the less you should eat. The more you move, the more you should eat! Seems simple huh? So, why do we continue to eat the same amounts when we're not moving around? The psychology behind it becomes increasingly important to understand.

If you eat a lot and don’t move, then you will surely gain weight. So eat less! If you move more, then your body requires more energy to burn, so you SHOULD eat more!

Your body knows if you don’t move a lot during the day. If you sit and work on the computer most every day, you shouldn't get that hungry! Mind over matter!

If you work at a computer all day, you don’t need a lot of food to sustain you. When you do eat, learn to eat small amounts at a time and eat foods that replenish your body and that are good for you instead of fatty foods that make you gain fat.

If you can learn to listen to your body you'll know when you are really hungry. You'll also know how to control those unexpected urges when you get them!

Eat wholesome, nutritional foods MOST OF THE TIME! Nutritious foods are your friend! Junk food is your ENEMY. Nutritious foods are foods that feed your body which is SUPPOSED to be your ‘TEMPLE’.

I have followed this 'rule' for Weight Loss' most of my life! Thats why I'm lean and trim at age 48. I feel absolutely gross when I put on even a few pounds.

Statistics show, that people over the age of 40, gain an average of about 5 pounds a year. Thats a LOT. Do the math and see how much weight you've gained a year! It is much harder to get extra weight off of you the older you get also. So do it now while you still can. Lose the extra weight and you will feel light and fluffy! Keep the extra weight and you will keep feeling heavy and stuffed.

The golden rule is to eat the right foods when you do eat, and to eat less food in general when you're not moving. Make sense? If you follow this guideline for weight loss, you will lose weight!

FYI: *The absolute, hands down, easiest, safest, best all around, fastest, and healthiest way to lose weight is to do this.
