Hmm, something cool for me and you

Look, this is what I accidentally found while looking for other stuff but meh, worth reading!

Young adults are at a vulnerable point and take peer pressure very seriously. They worry about their appearance which can cause those that do not have a weight problem to take unnecessary measures. Skipping meals isn’t the answer. In fact, skipping meals is counter productive as it causes the metabolism to slow down and use up FEWER calories. Never, EVER skip meals when you desire to lose weight! This can’t be stressed enough!

One necessary part of the best diet plan is exercise. Sometimes, this can be enough. It helps your body to digest the food that you eat. It builds muscle which naturally burns more calories than other body tissues. Exercise uses energy that would otherwise be converted into fat. If you increase the amount of exercise you get you increase the quantity of calories burned and consequently, the quantity of weight lost.

Consuming water is crucial, particularly when you are exercising. It’s the only food you can eat that’s guaranteed non-fattening.

Rather than consuming three large meals each day, switch to 4-6 smaller meals per day. Rather than eating breakfast cereal and toast for breakfast, just have one or the other then have a piece of fruit a couple of hours later. At lunchtime eat your sandwiches but set aside the fruit or cake for afternoon tea etc. This can keep your body’s metabolism working at peak performance and stop the food from being converted to fat.

Bear in mind that the best teenage diet plan involves eating smaller amounts more frequently, and getting heaps of exercise.


Any changes in your plans?
