Visite kp.org/bettersuccess para ver más ideas para hacer que las
calorías cuenten.
Prepare una receta para un verano sano Aun los cambios sencillos
pueden tener un gran impacto en su cintura:
Tome agua. Beba agua en lugar de soda. Las calorías adicionales de
todo ese azúcar hacen subir de peso.
Échese la siesta y conquiste. Si no duerme lo suficiente, es muy
probable que tenga sobrepeso u obesidad y que acabe teniendo
diabetes.
Gane todos los días. Haga más esfuerzo en las tareas domésticas
para convertirlas en ejercicios para quemar calorías.
Siga su programa para tener un peso sano Con tantas tentaciones por
todas partes, puede ser difícil mantener controladas las calorías.
Si no resiste la tentación, vuelva al camino correcto identificando
las cosas que podrían evitar que alcance su meta de peso.
Vuelva a los hábitos sanos sabiendo cómo y por qué no siguió su
plan para perder peso. ¿Ha cambiado algo en su vida? ¿Disfruta de
los ejercicios que hace? ¿Extraña ciertos tipos de comida? ¿Es su
meta específica y realista? Sea honesto, pero sin juzgar. Anote sus
respuestas y haga los ajustes necesarios para recuperar su
motivación.
Y, hablando de motivación, casi todo lo que haga que usted se mueva
le fortalece los músculos y quema calorías. Así que redoble la
frecuencia y hágalo divertido. ¿A lo mejor puede mover la cadera
con la hula-hula?
