How to Lose a Guaranteed 25 Pounds a Year Without literally Trying Even while the Holidays

Before you head into the holidays, contemplating all of those fancy appetizers, epicurean meals and yummy desserts, and feeling guilty that you're sabotaging your weight-loss program, there's a inexpressive strategy that you might want to tuck in the back of your mind.

During the past year, while faithfully documenting the foods I was eating, I realized that the easiest and fastest way to lose 25 pounds in one year was to pay attentiveness to the beverages I consumed. What I discovered was that it didn't matter what I put into my mouth, food-wise; what mattered were the beverages that I drank.

Food And Dessert

While I tried to utter a 1200 calorie per day regime, it dawned on me that I was sabotaging my own diet plan by drinking 800 to 900 fat per day. I'm not talking about drinking, in a totally alcoholic sense, either. Stay with me a little as I justify this inexpressive to you.

I was never a math major, but it did not take me long to do a quick analysis of my reports straight through an online calorie calculator. It showed me that when I consumed 900 fat per day straight through the liquids that I was drinking, that only left me with 300 fat for food. Oh my gosh. Even a peanut butter and jelly sandwich would cost me 456 calories...putting me 156 fat over my limit for the day.

That's when I decided to do some reverse psychology on my diet plans. I calculated that if I only took in 100 fat per day worth of liquids, I could indubitably eat 1100 fat worth of food. In other words, it was easier for me to delete all the high calorie beverages from my meal plans than to count fat for every snack of food that I located into my mouth.

At the end of one year, I had lost 25 pounds, and all I did was make sure that the daily caloric value of my beverages did not exceed 100 fat per day. Yes, of course, I applied the 90/10 rule, as I tried to utter my 1200 calorie per day meal plan. Ninety percent of the time I adhered to 1200 fat per day. But 10 percent of the time when I had cravings or went out to eat at a special function with my family or friends, I didn't worry about it.

So if you do nothing else this next year, and you just limit your beverages to no more than 100 fat per day, you will lose 25 pounds in one year. In case you're intriguing how person could drink 900 calories' worth of beverages in one day, consider that an 8 ounce glass of 2 percent milk is 120 calories; a latte is 300 calories; a soda is 100-160 calories; juice is 240 calories, beer or wine is 150 calories, and the list goes on.
