What are fun ways to exercise and good tips for losing weight?
I weigh 174 and I’m on the Jenny Craig diet. (I used to weigh 181 when I started Late August.) I know I’m not losing as much as I could because I cheat “just a little” and I didn’t like to exercise. Nothing really inspired me THAT much to lose weight until a problem I got involved with not too long ago. I’ve been running around Wal-Mart, going on tracks, etc but I know I’ll eventually get bored with it. I’ve considered DDR and I’m going to save up for that.. but until then, I need fun ways to exercise. I would also like tips on eating. I tend to cheat a little.. so if I do have the urge to cheat, what should I eat?

It is okay to cheat a little bit. People who try to be strict usually go nuts when they think about, see or smell their favorite foods and often end up binging. When you cheat, eat what you are craving, but in small portions.

You sound like me 😉 Some snacks that are healthy – almonds, dried or fresh fruit, baby carrots, dark chocolate (a little), and yogurt. I try to keep foods like that on hand for when I need a snack. Finding someone to exercise with helps me a lot. I like walking/jogging, Pilates, tennis, bike-riding, roller skating….whatever it is it’s always more fun with a buddy.

you can try to exclude, or take as minimal as possible on carbo and fats food in your diet, e.g flour, rice, potatoes, and all the oily and fatty food, etc.
Try to take up courses for exercising, like steps aerobics, cardio, etc. Its more fun doing in a group with an instructor, thus more motivation 🙂 I know there are cheap courses in the Singapore sports complex, you can go and take a look 🙂

How to Lose Weight Naturally?
How to lose weight naturally has been in debate for years.
Some say low carb. Some say high carb. Some say it’s how much food. Some say it’s how much exercise. But none of these covers the whole picture.
How to lose weight naturally is not rocket science. It just takes accepting the facts of these seven natural laws of weight loss, plus good old-fashioned stick-to-itiveness.
Seven Laws of How to Lose Weight Naturally
1. Make a commitment to whatever it takes. You not only need to know what to do, you also have to manage yourself in such a way that you do it. If you already knew exactly how to get yourself to lose weight and keep it off, you’d be at your perfect weight right now. Without 100% commitment to do what it takes, your goal has no staying power.
2. Start from a foundation of happiness. Most people think losing weight will make them happy. But happiness is a mental state that can only be created right now. And nobody wins at any challenge if they’re unhappy. So be happy. Accept yourself and your current circumstances and be enthusiastic about the future you’re creating.
3. Design your own healthy diet plan. Natural doesn’t mean spontaneous. As a matter of fact, spontaneous gratification is what gets most of us into trouble. Just like managing your time and money, weight management takes planning and organization. To burn more calories than you consume, based on your lifestyle, how are you going to handle the details?
4. Manage your emotions. Emotional eating is a major reason for failure. We’ve learned to use sweets, fatty foods and overeating for entertainment, celebration and to sooth and stuff down unpleasant emotions. Come up with a list of other things you enjoy (besides eating). And begin exchanging old bad habits for healthy new ways of enjoyment and soothing.
5. Find a way to exercise daily. Exercise is healthy and burns calories. It doesn’t have to be complicated or extreme. It just has to happen. Decide what kind would be best for you and work it out with your schedule. There are great exercise videos, walking paths and a variety of gyms everywhere. Choose a time and method and make it a regular habit.
6. Keep a Journal. If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it. Studies show the great majority of people who lose weight and keep it off are very aware of what they eat and the calories they consume. Many keep a journal. Research shows those who guess at the amounts, without writing them down (at least in the beginning), grossly underestimate their calories.
7. Be persistent. Nothing gets accomplished without persistence. Persistence is the only common denominator of all successful people. The story goes that Thomas Edison had 999 failures before he finally invented the light bulb. If you’ve tried and failed 999 times, learn from your mistakes and do it better next time. The only way to succeed is to persist.
