Tips To Getting Slimmer (The Natural Way)

Well everything contributes. Watch the kind of food u eat.
Don't eat food with high level of cholesterol ie. greasy foods, food with high fatty contents etc.
Don't stuff your face with fast food. Eat healthy (try more vegetables than meat).
I know people who'll put small rice in their plate and a pot of meat to go with it.
NOT GOOD! Try eat everything on a balanced level and remember A FAIR AMOUNT OF VEGETABLES!
For some people stress might be a problem. Some people under stress add serious weight.
So if u kno this is the case for u, then avoid stress like a plague.
Try excercising a little' too. Say, twice a week go to a gym or try running a mile or two.
I know it ain't easy but it pays off at the end.
You've prolly heard all these before but I'm jus trying to help (and I hope I did )

All Nigerian food is healthy to eat as long as u don't OVERLOAD!
Remember, TOO MUCH MEAT IS A HUGE PROBLEM!
Cos' I kno 9jas we like meat. 
Also avoid too much rice, because believe it or nat too much rice
(or any other food with alot of carbs)
makes u add weight. Like I said before, eat everything on a leveled scale.
Let one not be too much more (ok maybe a little' more; but not a significant amount)
than the other. 

do people acrually gain weight due to emotional stress?

it's also good to know your body type so you don't go on do do something unhealthy.

somepeople have hard time losing weight than gaining weight.
for some, it's 50/50
and for others, they have hard time gaining weight but it's easy for them to lose weight.

the number one thing for anyone living in the states or any so called "first" world country can do to get a healthier diet is to eliminate anything with the following additives

MSG
Corn Syrup
Hydrogenated Oils of all kinds.

They are all manufactured additives made from corn through various enzymatic processes that are not meant to be consumed. Especially Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (HOV). Unbleached HOV looks almost like candle wax and is added to baked goods to increase their shelf life. Corn Syrup is the reason diabetes is a so called "epidemic" in this country. Prevention is ALWAYS, ALWAYS better than treatement. Eliminate those 3 things and excercise and eat your local food. Fast foods are not only bad diets, they are KILLERS. (most fast foods are baked with HOV because it makes foods taste better, they also add corn syrup and msg to make them taste sweeter).

Infact refined sugars like Sugar cane are bad as well but not as horrible as corn syrup which really isnt corn syrup at all just like Hydrogenated oils aren't oils at all but fats that have a trans conformation (as opposed to cis fats that occur naturally in higher concentrations). Not only did the sugar cane kill millions of slaves who harvested it it is killing people now that consume the bleached, refined product.

The guy who said stay away from stock cubes, wow, thank you for that. Those things are POISON. MSG and TRANSFATS all concentrated into one delicious cube. Use salt in moderation. Cook with palm or coconut or olive oil, refined vegetable oils like corn or canola are bad.

Meat is good and good fat and good cholesterol is essential to your food no matter what is fed to us by companies pushing grain products like corn and its derivatives. We humans have grown and lived on meat for thousands of years, our bodies are meant to consume meats and the fats that are present in them. The problem comes when the meats we consumed are from animals fed grains instead of their natural food, injected with hormones and bred in factories unlike the animals that occur in nature so that they have even larger fat content and develop toxic chemicals from the hormones and pesticide from the grains they consume. Most cows in the US are fed corn, not grass, because it is cheaper. When you feed an animal food it is not supposed to it it becomes sick, so they inject it with hormones to combat the conditions it develops, they kill the cow, package it, place preservatives so it stays "fresh", package it with CO2 so it doesnt oxidize and voilla, preprocessed meat that is bad for you in more ways than one.

The moral of the story is simple. Stay away from PROCESSED FOOD. Processed food is the reason cancer and diabetes are the top health related killers in this country. Sweden took the initiative and banned transfat. The US will never do the same as long as pro Corn Agribiz like ConAgra continue to exist in the form that they do.

Eat Organic vegetables, farm raised meat, consume as little sugar as you can, stay away from substitute sugars like Nutrasweet (they are 1000X worse than Cane Sugar, they claim the calories are not empty, sure, they are non caloric much like DDT is non caloric, both are not meant to be ingested), eat ogranic eggs from farm raised chickens, coconut is excellent especially the oil, cook with olive and palm oil as opposed to corn and canola oil, we have lived on foods like yam and palm oil and ground cooked peppers and beans for years, they are good for us as long as they are not genetically modified or preprocessed.

PS I am not a lady, I just realized this thread was for ladies to stay slim. However my facts still stand for both sexes.

Shango,

Highly informed about this stuff. Meat and dairy products are the number 1 cause of a lot of dreadful diseases and sicknesses today. Thank you for the hints. By the way Shango you should consider giving your life to Jesus.

Omoge,

the most healthy place according to CNN documentary is an island in Japan average age of people there is 95 to 100 years. They don't eat meat there at all.  80-90 percent of their foods are fresh/raw fruits and vegetables.

@Omoge

Kool, Fresh, raw organic fruits and vegatbles are the way to go.

@Omoge

Yep, I guess that's why they call u Omoge lol. Life begets life you know. Living fresh organic fruits and vegetables are the life force that properly nourishes the living cells of our body. Once they are properly combined they work lotta miracles in our health. I'm proud of you keep up the good work.

u funny

Those are good nutritional facts. People should also take into account that when we heat those fruits and vegetables at temperature over 107 degrees we destroy the natural enzymes, nutrients, and vitamins that are really good for the body, Not only that we destroyed them, we denature them which also is not good for the body. In Gen 1:29 the Creator of the body clearly printed there what to feed the body He created. It is just like a manual for a product recomended by the manufacturer

are u in america or nigeria
