How To Use Losing Weight Tips For Women Over 40

By Diana Lensbury


If you're like most people you've seen an increase in the size of clothes you wear, especially if you're over 40. Below are a few weight loss tips for women over 40 and beyond. Just remember, every one's metabolism is different, so in reality you'll have to tailor any type of program to fit your individual weight issue and lifestyle.

There's a good chance you gained weight without noticing it until it was suddenly a health issue. And even worse, the older you are, the harder it is to lose it. While you may be eating the same and getting the same exercise, it just doesn't seem to work anymore.

In reality there's a good chance you've been gaining a few pounds every winter, and you take almost all of it off every summer. This leaves you just a few pounds heavier than you were the spring before. Unfortunately, taking that last little bit off seems harder than any other pound you've had to lose.

One of the reasons is that your metabolism ages just like you do, meaning, it's slower. This means you're going to have to put some extra effort in every spring. You may also need to eat different food. There's no doubt that what we eat plays a major part in how our body's process food.

This may mean you'll want to lean towards a fresher diet or eat more fresh foods. One of the reasons besides just being a healthy diet is that fresh foods are processed easier by your digestive tract. A healthy digestive tract really does aid weight loss, as long as it's moving normally you'll find the pounds are easier to lose.

You will need to add a bit more activity to your schedule. It doesn't mean killing yourself at the club, but it does mean adding a few extra minutes a day. If that won't fit in your busy schedule, then take the time to get it elsewhere. Try walking a bit faster, sitting down less, and even parking your vehicle further away.

As long as your realize that it's harder to lose and easier to gain after 40, you'll be OK. Just take time to adjust your thinking as well as your eating and exercise habits and it won't sneak up on you. Remember, if you're not careful before you know it your weight has become a health issue, take the time now to stop the cycle of a few pounds every year. Eat healthier and get just a bit more exercise and it will be easier.
