Lesserterian

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


Lesserterians generally follow the 4W's principles of weight loss/control, being Weight, Water, Walk and Wonder.

  • Walk very day (or some other exercise), even if only 15 minutes or to a distant sandwich shop !!
  • Weigh yourself every day and keep it in a Graf. Send it to someone also doing the 4 W's Program - Accountability, Understand your range, same scales each day at roughly the same time
  • Drink at least 1.5 litres of Water per day - Stops the hunger feelings
  • Wonder (pre tense - "do I need it" or "shall I have a carrot instead of a ..", i wonder whether i will only have 1 instead of ... or in past tense, "should I have eaten it") - A quick Stevie saves embarrassment and needing longer walks. "I wonder if that extra one will make me weigh heavy tomorrow?"

An example wold be - Drinking a big glass of water, then walking to the bottle shop while wondering whether to buy 7 bottles for the week or just four, then wondering whether you need the packet of Pork Crackle while weighting in the queue!!

Simple rules to think about include:

  • Mind over Fatter
  • Less of Everything - Sustainable Weight Loss
  • Waste the Waist
  • Better Fed, Not Dead
  • Grow Old, not Cold
  • Feel Great, Don't Inflate
  • Being Porky, Makes you Dorky
  • Desert the Dessert
  • It is not worth the weight

Food tips include:

  • Eat everything you did at start of 4W's engagement, but in less quantities (small reduction at start). Hence the Lesserterianism !!
  • Hor d'ouves - Look at the chips, cheese or dip and wait until they are almost gone before you have any
  • If you drink every night, drink 5 days a week. Instead of 3 Tim Tams, have 1 etc
  • If you have chocolate every night now, have it 3 days a week
  • High fibre, high protein, high fat, LOW sugar (not NO, but LOW)
  • Flax seeds, almonds, Hemp Seeds on all sorts of things
  • Full cream milk, butter (not margarine), but less of both
  • Pizza without the base (eg just eat the toppings)
  • Long Macchiato if you are a coffee drinker (eg no unnecessary milk!!)
  • Work out what your treats are - have but less often (mine include BBQ shapes, chocolate bar when do shopping),
  • Psyllium husks on your cereal/porridge each day (Lowan porridge with honey, psyllium, flax, hemp seeds)
