The New Year is typically when most people start
a weight loss plan. Armed with an entire year ahead of them, and the desire to
drop pounds and be more active, Americans seek the best way to lose weight.
Health Briefs TV believes that a healthy weight
loss plan is one which encourages healthful eating, daily exercise and a support
network. Fortunately, there are some good programs which we review here that
can help shed the weight gained last year.
Always keep in mind that the weight loss plan
should fit the lifestyle, culture, health and physical needs of the person.
Allergies to foods, chronic conditions and intolerance should also be
considered.
A healthful weight loss plan includes eating
plenty of legumes, fruits and vegetables, healthy proteins such as fish and chicken
and grains. There are several good plans available from the new Weight Watchers
program to the fresh meal delivery plans around the country. Each of these
offers the participant delicious healthy meals and portions which are
comparable to the person’s lifestyle and personal choices.
Any plan which includes a supplement to
increase quick weight loss is not altogether healthy. Choose a plan that
encourages lowering carb intake and increasing protein in the daily diet. Add
an hour of good physical activity, such as walking after dinner. The Health Briefs TV show also suggests walking on breaks during the work day, and
drinking enough water to stay hydrated. Add a squeeze of lemon, orange or a
slice of cucumber to help boost weight loss and add flavor to an otherwise drab
drink.
The New Year is here. What are your plans for
staying healthy this year?
