There really is no magic formula for women and even men to maintain a good weight. Every woman aspires to be thinner or more beautiful but they don’t have the determination required to keep the weight off.
Everybody wants a magic formula so they could just magic their way to a slimmer and healthier new person that they so want to be but the bottom line here is this, there is no magic formula but the basics to losing weight is simple and constant- count your calories and exercise.
A woman’s fitness can not just be solely based on our weight. Remember, if you develop muscles then you’ll be heavier as muscles weigh more than fat. So, if you are exercising and you checked your weight and you still haven’t shed a pound, you should not be upset as this only means you’re gaining more muscles while shedding off those fats. What’s important is that you are becoming healthier and your BMI is decreasing.
Of course, the main goal of losing weight is to decrease the calories and this can be done by decreasing the amount that you eat and/or by increasing your activities. So, for example, you want to be 120 lbs and you’re now 150 lbs, you need to consume only 1200 calories a day.
Or, eat 1,500 calories a day and burn 300 calories of it through exercises. That’s it! There’s no weight management magic out there but it’s all very easy yet so hard to do. Keep your cravings at bay and be determined enough to start exercising.
