One thing's for sure, in this day & age, if you're wanting to lose weight you can be excited and discouraged before you even start down the path. You're excited because you've made the decision, which is the first step, and you know you're willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done. However, you're discouraged because you have no idea what plan of action to take, which is the second step.
With new weight loss programs, plans, pills, and supplements being introduced to the market, on what seems to be a daily basis, it's no wonder only about 10-20% of people who start down, "weight loss lane", stay on the road until they've reached their destination. Not only that, but some that do stick to the plan turn right back around and return to their old habits.
The main problem is that once you choose a plan and get the desired results, the second you try to go back to a normal lifestyle, the weight piles right back on sometimes even more than when you started. Now if that's not discouraging I don't know what is. This is mainly due to the fact that most diets are too restrictive.
See, what most of us don't realize is most diets, diet plans, and diet pills aren't designed to use on a continuous basis. That is, more than likely you wouldn't be too healthy or happy if you continued to use them. Another thing we have to realize, and accept, is that an effective weight loss plan should be a lifestyle change plan, not just a one-time event.
What I've found, through not only my personal experiences but also the experiences of people I know, is that the most effective way to lose weight, keep it off, and maintain a healthy lifestyle is through natural, whole foods and natural supplements. For instance, we all know that eating fresh fruits and vegetables is much better than just relying on a multi-vitamin, and eating organic foods is a million times better than eating processed foods. Following an all-natural plan may take a little longer to see results initially but I can assure you that the long term results and benefits will blow anything else out of the water. You will not only keep the weight off and have more energy, but you will also add years to your life, which means you can enjoy the new and improved "you" even longer.
On the other hand, being that a lot of us live a fast paced life and like to see results immediately, there's nothing wrong with giving yourself a little jumpstart. What better way to do that than with a fat burning supplement. Now, before you get into a tizzy and say, "well I thought you said that the most effective way you know is the all natural way?" Let me explain myself. To much of your surprise there is such a thing as a natural fat burner. Some of the ingredients include apple cider vinegar, cayenne, ginger, and bromelain. With a natural fat burner like this you should not only begin to see, but definitely feel the results within your first week or two, in most cases even sooner.
Obviously you will need to incorporate some sort of exercise regimen into your weight loss plan as well. Studies have shown that a combination of cardio and weight training produces the best results. Cardio helps you burn calories and fat while you're exercising and weight training, even with light weights, helps to increase your resting metabolic rate, that is, you'll basically be burning calories while you sleep. The natural ingredients that I mentioned in the fat burner will also play a huge role in this process. To incorporate everything I've mentioned in to your soon to be new and incredible, healthy lifestyle is like killing four birds with one stone. What I mean is, the whole foods that you eat, the all natural fat burner you'll be taking, the cardio, and the weight training that you'll be doing is the complete weight loss success formula you've been looking for.
