So what’s better than liposuction? Rather than going under the knife, simple and natural weight loss resolutions that you can easily stick to might be just the ticket. Try as you might, weight loss resolutions often diminish into apple pie and ice cream socials as the days and weeks go by.  As those pounds creep up there are ways to keep those resolutions with a little effort and planning.

Although not all of us can dance to the oldies with Richard Simmons, we can make small strides to be healthy and in perfect health once more without liposuction.  Exercising can be fun and relaxing and is much better than liposuction.  Not into going to the gym? Then how about jumping on a mini trampoline or jumping rope on your patio?  Walking up and down stairs in your home and jogging in place are also great exercises. One of the single easiest exercises to do is to walk in place.  Yes, that's right with some simple effort you can be thinner and healthier this time next year.

Don't get discouraged, get even.  Measure your waist and aim for a 33 inch waist if you are a woman and if you are a man try for a 35 inch waist.  Throw out the scale and bring on the tape measure.  No longer are you a victim of sugar cravings, you are a new person starting today. 

If you want to lose weight and be healthy, then here are a few simple solutions to the problem.  Make and set small five pound goals.  Chart your results and then measure your success by your pants size. Start with this simple plan.

1. Cut out all sugar and replace it with honey or stevia.  Never ever use sweeteners as they are highly toxic.

2. Eliminate all white foods: white flour, white rice and white potatoes.

3. Use only sea salt.

4. Eliminate all package and canned goods.  Make everything fresh.

5. Limit chicken to twice a week.

6. Eat red meat only once a week and no more than the size of your fist.

7. Switch to whole wheat breads.

8. Snack on fresh fruits and veggies and be careful of the sugar content in some, such as bananas, mangos and carrots.

Losing weight naturally is better than liposuction and is not difficult with a few changes.  Exercise for fun and eat for pleasure.  Adding in some smoothies or sorbets made with your favorite fruits will help you stay on track. Dieting can be fun with the right recipes and information to guide you. Common sense, moderate exercise, and a little planning can help you keep your resolution to lose weight naturally….and that’s much better than liposuction.
