Here is some expert weight loss advice from college professors studying weight loss or related fields, so this should appeal to you more than fad diets.
James O. Hill is the director of the Centre for Human Nutrition at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Centre in Denver. His main tips:
Set 10% of your weight as your weight loss goal. Restrict your calories, lose the 10%, then spend six months maintaining the weight loss with increased exercise. If you still need to lose weight after that, start again.
Work out with moderate intensity to increase your endurance. He says exercise doesn't make a difference for many, because it just doesn't burn enough calories. He says exercise becomes more important in maintenance of weight loss. My take: Burn more than you take in. It's not rocket science, it's just very difficult.
Weigh yourself regularly. at same time of day or week for immediate feedback.
Eat breakfast!!!
He says if you keep the weight off for three years, you can say it has been a lifestyle change.
Ralph La Forge studies the role of exercise in weight loss and is managing director of the Lipid and Disease Management Preceptorship Program at Duke University Medical Centre.
He says that most people can't lose weight just by exercising. People overestimate the amount of calories the burn in a workout.
If you want to exercise, go for aerobic activity. He doesn't really support strength training for weight loss.
Do aerobic activity that is weight-bearing. Do longer, moderate-intensity workout. He knocks the idea of a fat-burning zone at low intensity.
