First, your weight loss program should already have clearly defined goals. More specifically, you should already be clear about how many pounds you are going to lose, and how much time you give yourself. The more ambitious your goals, the more effort that you will have to put in.

Once you know what your goals are, you can easily work out how you are going to achieve those goals. It’s a simple numbers game at this stage. If you burn more calories than you take in, you are going to lose weight. Of course, for your program to be sustainable, you have to continue keep your metabolic rate up. Don’t ever forget that.

Make up a list of foods that you like to take. Consult your fitness trainer, or find out from a weight loss book, how much calories each type of food contain. You can then easily calculate how many calories your diet will contain on a day to day basis. It also make more sense to take smaller meals, but in higher frequency. For example, taking 5 smaller meals is better than taking 3 big meals each day.

Make sure that you include lots of fruits, vegetables, and poultry in your diet list. Foods that contain larger amounts of antioxidants will help improve your overall health. If you like, you can consume some health supplements. But always remember – everything in moderation. For example, if you take fruit juices that contains lots of antioxidants, just about 50mg to 60mg per day is good enough. Consuming more than that will not help. It may even hurt your health!
