Diets For Weight Loss

Losing weight the healthy way is the best way to loose that extra unwanted weight without harming you or your body. Here I have compiled a short list of meals that are still mouth watering and good for you. These diets will work for almost everyone, and don't think these diets consist of just veggies there are lots of delicious foods out there that you can still eat!

Weightloss won't happen immediately, it happens overtime with healthy eating, exercise, and good habits. Although not everybody has good habits. I don't and I still lost the weight. But this isn't my story it's yours. If you want to check out things that might help you make the change of your life such as exercises and small things that you can do they are called weight loss techniques and tips.

So according to the experts, the best weight loss diet out there is The Weightwatcher's Diet. But not all of us have the time or the money to spend on these expensive diets even with their free offers and coupons. Of course there's different diets for people with different needs, some people are diabetic, some need heart healthy diets, and some need just the plain old diets for losing the added weight. No matter which one it is don't give up!!!

In the end things will pay off and you will slowly start to see a change in your body, health, and life even. There's no use in preaching to the choir, atleast that's what I was always told. If you know what you have to do, then get up and DO IT!

Losing weight will not be easy and don't get over confident just because you may have lost a few pounds in the first few weeks and cheat your diet, because that may have what got you there in the first place or maybe not depending on who you are. Always keep your eye on the goal once you have reached your goal don't go back, don't give in.

Not only does losing the weight benefit you mentally you have a much higher percentage of living a longer life than somebody that it is overweight. You hear all these things about how being overweight is bad for you and you could be at risk for this disease and that. Well don't ignore them. Don't think "No, this could never happen to me." Because it does, it happens to people and by the time they want to make a change sometimes it's too late. So don't be one of those people. Let these diseases scare you into wanting the lose the weight and live longer.

I'm not only talking to people that are overweight, I'm talk to everybody thats wants to lose any kind of weight. Not just women and not just men. EVERYBODY.

Men, women, and children alike as much as I hate putting that in here. This has gone too far, we are allowing our children to have to live with the added burden of being over weight. To be made fun of, teased, and bullied. It's not fair. Life isn't always fair but you can make it better. We as adults have a hard time handling the extra weight let alone our babies. So make the change today and make a good example for men, women, and children everywhere.

Alright so I'm done preaching for now. I hope my pep talk has prompted you to make a change for the better and to never give up. I have below a couple of free reciepes for you. Thank you for reading and be sure to come back next week where I will be updating with more information and more FREE reciepes!!!

Whole Wheat Apple Pancakes

Ingredients

1 cup low-fat buttermilk
3/4 cup nonfat milk
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon honey
6 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 medium apple, diced
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup whole-wheat four
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

Preheat the oven to 250. Put the apple in a microwave-safe bowl and tightly cover with plastic wrap; microwave on high until softened, about 2 minutes.

In a large bowl, whisk the flours, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a small bowl, whisk the buttermilk, nonfat milk, eggs and honey, then slowly add the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.

Heat a large nonstick griddle or skillet over medium heat. Spoon 1/4 cup batter onto the griddle for each pancake and sprinkle each with apple, then drizzle a little more batter over the apple. Cook until the tops are bubbly and the edges are dry, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown, 1 to 2 more minutes. Keep the pancakes warm on a baking sheet in the oven while making the rest.

Place 2 pancakes on each plate. Drizzle with the syrup.
