How to Maintain Your Weight
Topic: Health and Wellness 1:31 am EST, Dec 23, 2008

A lot of people who struggle with their weight become worried or anxious when it comes down to dining out. One of the main reasons behind this fear is embarrassment of appearing too picky. It is often difficult to have a good time socializing when you are constantly thinking of your commitment to your waistline. This is especially true when the dinner plans are a first date. In this situation, a lot of people set aside their weight loss goals and order anything on the menu.

Maintaining weight loss starts with losing weight in the right way. Many people who are able to keep the weight off have actually lost the weight over a long period of time. They don't follow crash diets or attempt to lose five pounds a day. They slowly and surely change their eating habits and increase their activity levels so that they lost weight regularly.

Once you have reached your ideal weight, be sure to upkeep with your workout regimen. Exercise at least 30 to 60 minutes each day. You should also eat 3 healthy meals each day, starting with a nutrient rich breakfast. You should also be sure to include five servings of fruit and vegetables into your daily diet.

Another key to maintaining your weight loss is to keep exercising. Your exercise level should stay on par with what it was while you were learning weight. To avoid getting bored with your exercise routine, try a new activity, such as martial arts or belly dancing. Find ways to incorporate more activity into your daily life. Take the stairs, park far away from your destination and look for family friendly activities that you can share together.

Increase your activity level. The human body is built to walk, run, hunt, jump and so on. But most people these days sit in front of the computer or Tv screen. Exercise improves weight loss and is very important to maintain your weight also. The more you move yourself the more you burn calories.

Count calories and nutrients, measure your portion sizes, weigh your food, plan your menus in writing and monitor your body weight and body fat percentage. If keep absolutely no count of your calories, then you can easily gain all the weight back very quickly.

Eat Low-Energy-Dense Foods. Mayo Clinic developed a Healthy Weight Pyramid to "encourage weight loss, weight maintenance and long term health." Low-energy-dense foods (lower calorie foods that make you feel full), are an important part of the pyramid. Fruits and vegetables are low-energy-dense foods and you may eat all you want.

Other Very Useful Tips:

Identify your poor habits and start to break them with habits that will serve you.
Avoid getting into habits that could be a permanent problem such as a cappuccino one day and before you now you are having a cappuccino everyday.
Form a support group at work.
Depending on the length of your lunch time – maybe go to the gym at this time or go waling with a few colleagues a certain amount of days a week.
