Oprah's diet for weight loss
Must be combined with a fitness routine and lifestyle changes
Oprah's dramatic weight loss has set off a frenzy about how she did it. The good news is that she has not kept any secrets at all. On her television show and in the O magazine, she has continued to share what worked for her and what didn't. In this article, we have summarized the
key parts of Oprah's weight loss
program. (Related:

Stay away from white foods. That includes refined flours,
potatoes, and sugar. These are very common ingredients in
processed food, especially in breads. However, Oprah is not saying that she does not eat grains; she has said that she does eat
whole
grains.
No alcohol. While this may be too extreme for those of you who
do enjoy a drink occasionally, giving up alcohol works for many. Mary Lou Henner does not recommend alcohol and
Naomi Campbell attributes her
fountain
of youth to staying away from alcohol. It is
widely known that
Paris Hilton does not drink alcohol. |
Portion control. It is amazing how you can stop eating after you are sort of 50%-70% full.
In fact, many diet experts believe that remarkable weight
loss can be achieved by merely controlling your portions even if you do nothing else. Oprah also has become extremely careful with her portions.

No more eating after dinner time.
It is good to eat your last meal of the day about three to four hours before going to bed. And once you are done, you should not eat anything at all after that. A good way to stop yourself is to brush your teeth immediately after dinner. Oprah's
personal trainer,
Bob
Greene, strongly opposes snacks after dinner and attributes the
bad habit to rapid weight gain. If there is a lot of food in the body that just sits there when you are sleeping, it results in weight gain.

Water. The more you drink the better off you will be.
Exercise and fitness routine. Oprah has
recently become very athletic. She had run the Marathon before the weight loss
(Celebrity
weight loss secrets), and even now her routine is very rigorous and includes strength training, cardio, and
Pilates.
Will this weight loss program help you
become fit?
Probably! It
appears to be simple, straightforward, common sense program. The key
here is discipline and motivation. If you can find the motivation inside, you will find the will power
for diet and exercise.
