Type 2 Diabetes Weight Loss: Make Sure It Works
By ravi agrawal
Set a goal:
To achieve weight loss it is best to start with a realistic goal. Discuss with your doctor your ideal healthy weight and the period of time it will take you to achieve it. Losing weight quickly may appear more satisfactory however, it is healthier to slowly lose weight at the rate of about 2 pounds per week.
Calorie count and portion control:
Keeping an eye on the portion sizes and counting your calorie intake is necessary for weight loss, as it is in other weight loss programs. One serving of vegetable is about the size of a baseball. A deck of cards is approximately one serving of fish, meat or chicken. One quarter cup of dried fruits and nuts is about the size of a golf ball. If you are not comfortable with the eyeballing of food scheme, consult a nutritionist and measure your food for a while.
3500 calories is approximately one pound
of fat. So, if you take in 3500 calories without expending it then you tend to put on a pound. Conversely ,if you burn off 3500 calories per week either by exercising or by decreasing your calorie intake, you can shed a pound in that week.
Weight loss maintenance:
Maintenance of weight loss is very important in Type 2 and can be done by sticking to a balanced diet and a strict exercise routine. Before starting out on any weight loss program it is advisable to consult your doctor on your individual diet plan.
