So, your New Year resolution is to lose those extra pounds piled over Christmas and New Year holidays? Before you begin any fast weight loss solution, be it a diet pill or a diet plan, let me tell you the secrets of successful weight losers.

The National Weight Control Registry at www.nwcr.ws has collected data on people who’ve shed a significant amount of pounds and kept their weight off.

Here are the successful weight losers’ secrets:

* 78% eat breakfast every day. This doesn’t mean grabbing a donut on the way to work. Make sure you eat a healthy meal like an egg-white omelet and whole-wheat toast.

* 62% watch less than 10 hours of TV per week.

* 90% exercise about one hour per day. The most frequently reported form of activity is walking.

* 75% weigh themselves at least once a week.

* If a bad weigh-in sends you to the cookie jar for comfort instead of to the gym for revenge, skip the scale and keep an eye on how your clothes fit.

To keep your weight off permanently, you really have to maintain a low calorie, low fat diet and doing high levels of activity!

Did you know …?

* 55% – 75% of your body weight is made up of water.

* Your body needs water to regulate its temperature, protect its organs and tissues, deliver nutrients and oxygen to its cells, remove waste and absorb vitamins and minerals.

* This is how much water you lose each day: 1.5 liters through urine, 1 liter through breathing, sweating and bowel movements.

* Water helps you lose weight. Often, when you feel hungry, you’re actually just thirsty.

Drink a glass of water, wait for about 15 minutes, then eat if you’re still hungry after that. Drinking a glass of water before every meal will help you feel fuller, faster and you eat less.

* Drinking enough water reduces bloating. If your body is constantly dehydrated, it stores extra water as a reserve in anticipation of becoming dehydrated again.

Being inactive is no reason to be complacent about your fluid intake. You can be dehydrated even in a cool environment such as an air-conditioned office.

Humans perspire 24 hours a day and when you don’t realize you’re losing fluids, that’s when it can get dangerous.

As a guideline, you should be drinking:

500 – 600ml 2 hours before your workout.

150 – 200ml every 15 – 20 minutes during your workout.

600 – 700ml immediately after your workout.

Ever wonder how you can lose 10 pounds in one year? Stop drinking one can of pop a day.

One 12-ounce can of pop contains 135 calories and 35 grams of sugar (10 teaspoons of sugar).

If you enjoy pop and feel that you want it to be part of your diet, then this is your decision.

Since pop is now available in all-size bottles, limit your serving size to no more than 12 ounces per day, otherwise you’ll be taking in too much sugar.

If you haven’t tried flavored seltzers and sparkling low-calorie beverages, this may also satisfy your cravings for pop.

Remember Today’s Fast Weight Loss Solution Tip – If you save 135 calories every day, you could lose 10 pounds in one year.

“I jog for 45 minutes and perform 40 repetitions of squats 4 to 6 times a week. Although the circumferences of my thighs have reduced and my thigh muscles have toned up, my inner thighs are still flabby. I have also tried slimming creams on these areas, but nothing seems to work.

Is there anything I can do to lose my inner thigh flab?”

I used to have this same problem when I first started trying to lose weight with exercise. It’s kind of frustrating to see that the inner thighs were still flabby after a while.

Fortunately I came across this fast weight loss tip on the magazine. :-)

So, what can be done to get rid of the flabby inner thighs?

You see, the majority of the exercises you’ve been performing involve forward movements, which are great for working your prime muscles such as your quadriceps, hamstrings and glutes, but leave your inner thigh out of the equation.

Try adding activities that involve lateral or sideways movements. This will get your lateral stabilizers working and your inner thigh muscles activated.

Alternatively, try interchanging your squats with lunges and progressing from stationary lunges to walking lunges.

These exercises will require you to use more muscles in order to stay balanced.

Try out today’s fast weight loss solution tip to get rid of your flabby inner thighs.
