The summer weather is (almost) here!

The summer weather is (almost) here in Israel.  It is a topsy turvy spring this year.  One day it is hot, and the next day is cold.  You almost don't know whether to keep the coats out, or put them away for  the winter.

One thing that is certain, is that this is the time to lose weight.  The basic premise of losing weight is to use up more energy than you are getting from food.  Some people do this by counting calories.  This can get very time consuming as you have to figure out how many calories each serving of food has before you eat it. This sounds like to me too much work.

Another way is exercise.  This is a good way to lose weight, and you get the added benefit of good blood pressure, heart health, and a good mental attitude.  If you like to exercise, then exercise every day for 20 minutes, eating a balanced diet.

One thing that you must not forget is to drink enough water.  Yes, water.  Cola, coffee, fruit juice does not count.  You still need your water.  80 percent of your body weight is made up of water and if you don't drink enough, your kidneys have to work that much harder.   These other drinks are just for a bit of taste to finish a meal, the water should be your main drink, not to add more sugars to your diet.


One way to get a good diet is to go to a certified dietitian.  If you stick to your diet, and drink your water, you should gradually lose weight and stay healthy at the same time. 

NLP can also help you keep to your diet. You install anchors in your mind, with feeling, taste, smell and vision clues.  Whenever you think of eating the chocolate bar, give yourself your anchor and feel how it is to be thin, without the extra calories.  With NLP you don't need very many sessions to get results.
