Know your eating habits, then set reasonable goals for yourself. When you do snack, choose fresh fruits and unsalted, low-fat snack foods. Changing your behavior will help change your weight for the better. Increasing physical activity Diet alone is not the only answer to weight loss. To lose weight, you need to increase your physical activity to aid in burning calories.
Light activity burns calories at a slower pace than strenuous activity.
Include weight-bearing exercises to maintain strong, healthy bones. More vigorous exercise has the added benefits of improving the fitness of your heart and lungs. These are called aerobic activities and should be done at the right intensity for 30 minutes three to four times a week. Choose activities that you enjoy and try a number of different activities. Variety keeps things interesting.
