Fasting to Lose Weight?

Our church music team is currently having their 3 days fasting in preparation for our upcoming concert. I also fast but I only did it for one day. I have tried fasting before for 3 days and we just stayed in the church. My fasting diet is only water and juice but I thanked God that I was able to survive it. For some people,they fast as a way to lose weight or to cleanse the body. Some fasting diets involve drinking nothing but water or eating only raw foods for a period of one or more days, while others restrict food on alternate days. Certain fasting diets only allow liquids like water, juice or tea and that’s what I usually do.

When you fast, your body is actually forced to dip into energy stores to get the fuel it needs to keep going, so you will lose weight. The big question is how long you will keep that weight off? you will probably gain back the weight you lost and possibly even put on more weight when eating the same calories you did before the fast. Research has shown that fasting on alternate days can help people lose weight, but not for long. I think this one will one work out for me because people who followed an alternate day fasting diet shed weight, even when they ate all they wanted on the non-fasting days.

Exercise is the Key

Most of us know the importance of having a balanced diet. But when it comes to physical exercise, many of us are guilty of being lazy in doing it. Well, I am actually one of those who are too lazy enough in doing some exercise.

Did you know that using exercise as a balanced program of personal fitness is often the last thing people consider as they sign up for gym membership? I remember when my mom enrolled in a fitness class for her aerobics and fitness and she wanted me to enroll so I can do some exercise too but I’m still doubting if I could do it or if ever I enroll and if I can continue doing it.

As we all know, Exercise is the key to weight control because it burns calories. If you burn off more calories than you take in, you lose weight. It’s as simple as that and once you begin to exercise regularly, you will discover many more reasons why exercise is so important to improving the quality of your life.

Exercise reduces stress, lifts moods, and helps you sleep better. It can also keep you looking and feeling younger throughout your entire life. I better start to get physically active this time where I need to exercise everyday so I can start in losing my weight and live a healthier lifestyle.

Did you know that there are different kinds of weight loss products available in the market today? Aside from the popular and common diet pills or slimming capsules, there’s also a slimming coffee and a slimming orange juice. Now there is even a sensa reviews about this product that is so called a sprinkle diet which was created to be sprinkled on anything that is eaten which enhances the flavor.

I haven’t tried it yet but it looks promising to me. I better try it when it is already available here in our place. This serves as an appetite suppressant and I think its much better than diet capsules and drinks.
