Weight Loss Management

Losing excess weight is one of the most effective ways to improve your overall health. In fact, being overweight is connected to a whole host of health conditions, including:

• Diabetes
• Heart disease
• Cancer
• High blood pressure
• Stroke
• Arthritis
• Back and joint pain

The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a good indicator if you should lose weight. This shows if you are a healthy weight for your height. Other factors, such as the amount of muscle and waist size should also be taken into account. Many people struggle with their weight, but there is a lot you can do if you want to lose weight.

Weight loss tips

Many people fail to lose weight because they attempt to make too drastic a change, completely overhauling their diet and lifestyle all at once. Small changes are more sustainable and are more likely to be successful.

Perhaps begin to take a walk after your evening meal. This can help aid digestion, as well as getting you into the habit of being physically active. Introduce healthier snacks such as nuts. Nuts provide a great balance of fibre, protein and healthy fats.

Have breakfast every morning. Skipping breakfast may lead to you snacking more. Have a healthy breakfast such as wholemeal toast or poached eggs. Drink plenty of water. Not only will this keep you hydrated, but it will help you feel fuller for longer, reducing snacking.

Weight loss products

There are also weight loss products available, to compliment a healthy diet and exercise. These can help to reduce the amount of carbohydrates, sugar and fat the body absorbs. Weight loss products can also help to reduce blood glucose and insulin levels. This can reduce cravings.
