The obvious formula is to reduce the amount of food you eat and exercise. However following that formula may not give you the results you are looking for. This works for a short time but then you begin to plateau. Even increasing your aerobic activity has little effect. But we can change that.
You can see eye opening results, if you simply add resistance training to your fitness program. You will notice a change in your weight and size. Even before the scale reveals it, you will see it in the mirror. If you don't have a full length mirror, it's time to get one. Not only will you see a change in the way you look, these exercises are important to build strength and flexibility. All you need is thirty minutes a day, but if you have longer than that then go for it.
Of, course what you eat will determine how much weight you lose. You want to cut back on fat, sugar and salt. Don't expect exercise alone to take care of your weight loss goals. You have to eat less and burn more calories to actually lose weight. I like to use the LOSE IT App. It is free for iphones and ipads you can also go to loseit.com. Give it a try.
