Smart Ways to Reduce Calories and Still Eat Good Foods

By Harry Drake


In some ways weight loss is like math because you have to make what you can burn-up every day greater than what you eat each day. A lot of things can complicate that formula, not to mention deciding what to cut out and how much exercise to do. One of the quickest ways that people learn to deal with this is to limit how many calories they take in each day to a relatively small number.

One thing that is crucially important is to reduce total calories in an intelligent and healthy manner. So let's dive right into how you can accomplish healthy calorie reduction. You may be surprised to know that just about anything else you drink that is not water has quite a few calories in it. Water is natural and what people drank exclusively a long time ago, and it also is devoid of any calories at all. Our bodies are mostly water, and that makes water the very best liquid to ever consume.

Just about all non-water drinks, except for a few, are just teeming with calories. In as little as eight ounces of a soft drink, you can be taking in at least one hundred calories in that. So just think about that for a minute, depending on what you drink each day you could shed quite a few calories right there. Use smaller dishes when you serve your food. Oddly enough this actually works. It is only logical that a dish not filled up will give you room to add food that you did not need. If you use a smaller dish, there simply is no additional room. You will have a reduced intake of the food you eat on a daily basis. Even switching just from a twelve inch plate to a ten inch plate can help you cut your portion sizes by twenty five percent. By using this strategy, you can cut at least five hundred calories at each mealtime.

Millions of people have the habit of snacking when they watch whatever they do on the TV. We all know how much that contributes to unnecessary calorie intake, so work to bring that one down as much as you can. Look for other areas where you can make changes, and one good one is to reduce TV watching and just do something that is active.

Just think about what you do, and this represents can even more calories you can get rid of pretty easily. You would be amazed at the number of calories you can burn up just by doing simple walking.

If you look honestly at what you do each day, we know you can find several ways to put more activity into your life so you can get rid of those calories. Try to uplift yourself and be more positive about what you can accomplish because you really can do more if you put your mind to it. There are workouts you can do and enjoy while keeping yourself healthy. You can do a bodily exercise or use equipments like using a home exercise bike machine to assist you in your daily workout. If you have not done any workout for a long time, though, make an appointment with your doctor and get a check-up, first.
