Strategy to lose weight

The classic and probably the most effective approach to losing weight is to apply a 2-pronged approach which is diet and regular exercise. By decreasing your calorie intake and increasing physical activity one is assured to lose those undesirable pounds. The usual problem lies in finding a sustainable system that can last a lifetime. Here is my initial plan for this month.

1. Give at least an hour for exercise everyday.
2. Go to the gym at least 4 times a week and if it is not possible then I would walk or run around my subdivision.
3. Limit the rice intake to 1 cup per meal.
4. No more sodas and other sweet drinks.
5. Avoid fried and baked goods.

I will not drown myself with more rules now because it will be hard to keep track if you a 100 rule guideline and you are still starting. It is very important that one should not be overwhelmed by the rules and goals that are set.

Once, a routine is set-up then it will be the right time to add new rules and changes.
