How I Lost Pounds Quickly and Safely

What is one of the most talked about topics in society today? Out of many possible answers, the topic of losing and maintaining weight stands out, especially as it affects more people in our world these days.

The question is often asked...how can I lose weight? And how can I do it as quickly and safely as possible? There are many different methods that are discussed. Some are effective, some not so much. When I was at a time in my life where I needed to answer this question, I found an extremely simple method that helped me lose the weight quickly and safely. Does it work? That depends on you. I will say that, in using this process, I lost 20 pounds in less than two months. And this has occurred twice in the past 15 years of my life.

I share this easy two step process with you in hopes that it helps you as it did me. It may seem overly simple. However, I think that's partly what makes it so effective. I understand that people have different things that may or may not work for them, but I don't understand how so many people look past this method of losing weight. Here are the two simple and effective steps:

  1. Counting Calories - It's a simple fact. The less you eat, the less you gain. I don't know how much more simple it gets. The average person eats around 2000 calories a day. I realized that when I was gaining weight, I was eating significantly more than that. If I wanted to lose weight, I needed to eat less than that. I set a reasonable total of 1500 calories per day. I could still eat whatever I wanted. I didn't have to limit carbs or anything like that. It was simply a case of budgeting the amount of calories. If I was having a big dinner or lunch, I just sacrificed in other areas during the day. Even if I wanted to take advantage of my evening Dorito snack, I made sure I had those calories remaining. Once again, I can't believe that when I hear people struggling to lose weight, they look past this extremely basic and fool-proof method.     
  2.  It's all in your head - Another part of mastering the weight-loss process is mastering the mental aspect. The key is to avoid focusing on losing weight. Instead, focus on the goal. Focus on the exact weight you want to be at. Then visualize yourself at that weight. See yourself being able to do what you want to do and wear what you want to wear. Feel the joy and confidence of accomplishing the goal. Hear the compliments from others. When you have the goal firmly planted in your mind along with the faith that it will happen, it helps you take the necessary steps to accomplish it. You will see a snowball effect that will make things happen very quickly. For more on using creative visualization, I recommend you check out this article...

I will say that I am not an expert when it comes to weight loss. I also understand that some people deal with weight issues that go above and beyond diet and fitness, and have experienced struggles that go far beyond what I had. These techniques worked for me. I share them with you in hopes that you will experience the same rapid success I did. I strongly recommend you give it a try. Not only has this worked for me, but I know of several other people that have experienced quick changes as a result of going about it this way. I know it can happen for you too :)
