My boyfriend is trying to lose weight?!
Question: My boyfriend is trying to lose weight!?
He is 6'4" and weighs 260, down from 270!. I finally got him to cut out all the coke he drinks!. He has a major addiction to sweets, and thinks he is doing right by eating sugar free chocolate candy!. He has a stressful customer service job sitting all day in front of a computer taking calls!. He says he is allowed to have snacks at work, but won't eat anything I pack, like veggies and low-fat dressing!. He actually thinks it's healthy to eat stuff like sun chips or popcorn in the bag!. I really love him, what are some things I can do or say to help him!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

1) Drink a glass of water before every meal!. It fills you up so you don't over eat!. Also drink a glass of cold water every morning - Your body burns calories by cooling down the water to make it useful to your body!.
2) Eat slowly - It takes your brain 20 minutes to realize you're full, so if you eat fast, you'll overeat!.
3) Never crash diet!. Don't go under 1200 calories a day!. It'll slow your metabolism down, and you won't be able to receive all the nutrients you need in a day!. And once you do start eating normally again, you'll regain all the weight you lost immediately!. Instead, take it slow and steady!.
4) Don't be a lazy bum!. Do jumping jacks while watching TV, run laps around the coffee table - Just try to keep yourself moving!.
5) Immediately after eating, pop a piece of cinnamon or mint gum in your mouth so you don't feel the urge to keep picking at your food!.
6) And don't beat yourself up if you had a bad day! Listen to your body - If you want something, have it! Just always remember to keep it in moderation!. But don't deprive yourself, or you won't get ANYWHERE!.
7) Leave a couple bites left on your plate when eating!. You can save calories by not eating every last bite!.
8) Substitute "diet" foods for regular foods - Skim milk for whole, low-fat cheese for full-fat cheese, light bread over regular bread, reduced calorie yogurt over regular yogurt, Splenda for sugar, etc!.

Make sure your plate has this ratio - 50% veg, 25% carb(potatoes, corn and peas come in carbs category), 25% protein!.this will prevent cravings too!.an occassional treat is OK!. have a snack every three hours!. fruit (ideally berries) or soy nuts!. just 2 tbsp of soya subsides hunger pangs!. switch from white rice and bread to brown!. eat 900gms of veggies a day!.Lose a kilo a week!. that is permanent loss!. pick an exercise regime you like!.
get a pedometer and try to take 10,000 steps everyday!.
