How long does it take to lose weight?

How long does it take to lose weight? I do see a lot of weight loss ads that promises instant results in losing weight. Most suggest that you can lose a lot of weight in about a month. True? Well, seeing these ads brought a lot of excitement to me. I even thought about liposuction in the past because thinking that it will produce instant results. Somehow its very expensive. Its true that you can lose a lot of weight in a month but its not going to work your metabolism. If your metabolism isn't good at all, you'll gain back all the weight you've lost instantly. Although there are some ads that promises that they will also work on your metabolism. Its just that you'll still eat junk foods because your body is used to it.

The best way to lose weight is still the old fashioned way which is diet and exercise. Remember that you won't see changes in a month. You'll probably see changes in about 6 months or more. Just don't worry if it takes long because its more of a lifestyle change. Once you succeeded on weight loss using the old fashioned tips that I gave (diet and exercise), you'll notice that you can eat as much as you want without worrying about weight gain. Your body will get used to exercise. It will also get used to the food that you eat. I myself noticed that I've been eating a lot of clean stuff ever since I succeeded in my weight loss. I do eat junk foods but I don't crave for it the way I craved with it before.

Automatic Diet

A lot of people asked me how I lost weight. I gave them the typical weight loss advice. The hardest advice they can't take is go on a diet. Dieting is really hard especially if you become tempted by comfort foods most of the time. Even I myself had a hard time dealing with it. Anyway, I know of a program called "automatic diet". I just noticed this program myself. Its automatic because it just happens. The first thing you need to do before it happens is to exercise more. Stick to your standard eating habits first. If you have a hard time giving up that mouth watery juicy burger, that is fine as long as you exercise. Discipline yourself with some exercise. I do schedule my exercise in the afternoon. I do 30 - 45 minutes cardio but I don't do cardio immediately after eating. Weeks after doing it, I noticed that my eating habits started to change. I began eating a lot of fruits and vegetables. I did neglect them before. I even noticed that my point of view with junk foods changed. That is how the automatic diet works. The good thing about it is that this automatic diet is really fun. You won't feel the grudge of dieting when you do this kind of program. Its just automatic!
