How to Lose Weight by Running

Many people begin running because they want to lose weight. 

As one of the most vigorous exercises out there, running is an extremely efficient way to burn calories and drop pounds. 

A 150-pound person will burn approximately 100 calories per mile when running. 

If you're hoping to use running to lose weight, here's some advice on how to be successful.

1. Healthy Eating is the First Step

If you want to lose weight by running, keep in mind that you'll only shed pounds if you burn more calories than you consume. To lose a pound, you have to burn, through exercise or life functions, about 3500 calories. So you'll need to combine running with a healthy diet. Runners do have special nutrition needs, but the basic principles for healthy eating still apply. Try choosing smaller portions of high-fat and high-calorie foods and eating more whole grains, fruits, and vegetables.

One common eating mistake among runners is that they overcompensate for the calories burned by exercise with extra calories from more food and beverages. Some runners even find that they gain weight or hit a weight loss wall, despite their regular training.

One way to prevent "stealth calorie" consumption or mindless eating is to write everything you're eating in a journal for a few weeks. Seeing a record of your food intake will help you see where your diet needs improvement. It will also keep you on track because you'll think twice before putting that chocolate-covered donut in your mouth.

2. Follow a training schedule.
Sticking to a training schedule is a simple way to stay motivated to run. You'll know exactly what you need to do every day and each run builds on the next, so it's much harder to postpone or skip workouts. Following a schedule can also help you avoid a running injury by not increasing your mileage too quickly. 

3. Run Regularly
If you don't want to follow a schedule, you still need to have some consistency with your running because you won't lose weight by running once a week. It's best to get some activity every day but, if that's not possible, try to shoot for at least 3-4 times per week.

4. Keep it Challenging
Incorporating speed work or interval training (running at a very fast speed for short intervals of time) into your running routine can also help your weight loss efforts. Speed work burns a great amount of calories in a short period of time. You'll also increase your muscle mass and improve your resting metabolism, causing you to burn more calories throughout the day.

5. Eat for Performance
If you're running regularly and you're training for a long-distance event, proper nutrition is especially critical for your performance. Skipping meals doesn't allow you to train with adequately fueled muscles. You shouldn't skimp on calories before, during (when necessary), and immediately after your very intense and long workouts. These are crucial times when nutrition is important to performance and recovery.

How Celebrities Lost Weight

Nigella Lawson (Pic: Big Pictures)

Losing weight is tough enough for most of us. But for ­some weight-conscious celebrities, slimming in the spotlight can ­be even harder. This lot did it though!

Famously curvy Nigella, 51, has dropped from a size 18 to a 12.

According to reports, she lost the weight on the Clean and Lean plan, devised by trainer James Duigan who also looks after Elle Macpherson and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.

The diet is based around fish, lean poultry and vegetables and people on the plan also have supplements and diet shakes.

After going up five dress sizes before giving birth to son Bobby in February 2010, Jennifer Ellison regained her size 8 figure this year after losing five stone.

She described herself as a “hippo mama” when she ballooned to a size 18, but now the 5ft 7in actress is sharing her secrets in a fitness DVD called Fat Blaster Workout, which is out on Boxing Day.

Reflecting on her weight gain, Jennifer, 28, said: “I got huge. I looked like a hippo. I had absolutely no idea how I had ballooned during my pregnancy. All I thought about was eating plenty of food to keep my baby healthy.”

Dawn French (Pic: Getty)

Often referred to as a “roly-poly” comedienne, Dawn, 54, is fast losing that reputation after recently shedding four stone.

At the Galaxy National Book Awards in London last month, she beamed in a sheer black knee-length dress ­and black heels.

Her new look is a far cry from the cuddly Dawn French of old, who once famously said: “There are two types of women: the ones who like chocolate and complete bitches.”

She’s now 16 stone, down from 20, and revealed: “I’m eating healthily, taking care of myself and feeling very happy. I want ­to go to ­Pilates classes, too.”

Dawn, who is now single after splitting from husband Lenny Henry, 53, last year, now only has an occasional Cadbury Fruit & Nut bar and has
given up chips, opting instead ­for salads.

The Birds of a Feather actress definitely deserves to pop the champers after losing a massive eight stone this year.

For the first time in decades, Pauline, 52, weighs a healthy 11 stone.

She decided to conquer her weight after doctors said she needed a hip replacement. She was also mortified when she had to ask for a seat belt extension on a plane.

At her heaviest, Pauline weighed 19 stone and was a size 28. She has followed the LighterLife diet strictly since last January.

“I know the whole world starts their diet in January and most stop by March but I was determined,” she said.

Ruth Jones (Pic: Getty)

After years of fad diets, everyone’s favourite Welsh lady Ruth Jones lost four and a half stone the old-fashioned way – by simply counting calories for 22 long months.

And in November, the actress, 45, proudly unveiled her new size 12 figure.

As Nessa in sitcom Gavin & Stacey, which she ­co-wrote with James Corden, she made a virtue of her size 24 curves. But after years of feeling  genuinely happy, she decided to lose weight.

She said: “I came back from holiday in January 2010 and we all overdo it on holiday, don’t we? Something just clicked, I felt this is now or never, I wanted to make a change.

“I’ve done loads of diets in my time but I have never done it the old-fashioned way – taking in less calories than I was using.

“And I mean LOADS of diets – the F-plan diet... remember that? It brought jacket potatoes back in fashion! And the CaveWoman Diet – meat, fish and veg. I went to loads of slimming groups, too.”

Ruth, who lives in Cardiff with her husband David Peet, gave herself a strict calorie intake. While a woman’s average recommendation is 2,000 a day, Ruth limited herself to between 1,200 and 1,500.

“Some days are better than others,” she said. “I realised I was going to have to be patient. If you’ve got a few stones to lose (seven in my case!) then it’s going to take time.”

Kelly Osbourne weight loss: how I transformed myself, inside and out

Kelly Osbourne has shed 69lbs, almost five stone in total. Here she reveals how she did it.

Kelly Osbourne’s transformation into the fit, bubbly 28-year-old she is today has been inspiring. But it hasn’t been easy for Kelly, who has shed 69lbs, almost five stone in total. 

In an exclusive photoshoot and interview with British Cosmopolitan’s spin-off health and fitness magazine, Cosmopolitan Body, she unveils her stunning bikini body and how she got it...

 “People think I lost weight and that’s what made me happier. That’s not true; I had to learn to love myself first. Losing weight was just one benefit of putting the hard work in and sorting myself out on the inside first through therapy. 

That was one of the scariest times of my life. I swear I’ve never felt more naked, because I had to actually be me and couldn’t mask it.” 

Now she opens up about the moment she realised she was happy with herself: “I’ll never be the kind of person who thinks, ‘I’m so hot.’ I don’t want to be. 

But I've learned to respect and love myself – something I didn’t think I would ever be capable of. At the Emmys last year I had my first moment when I really felt good. 

I put on my dress and when I looked at myself in the mirror I cried. Never in my life did I think that Zac Posen would specially fly in a dress for me that he could have given to any nominee. It fitted me perfectly!” 

As always Kelly is refreshingly honest about how she shifted the pounds: "Working out is not fun, I’m not going to lie and say it is. I sweat my arse off and I’m miserable for the hour I’m doing it but when I’m done, I feel amazing. 

There’s no quick fix and it does take a long time. It drives you mad when you see someone eating chips when you can’t have any, but it’s so worth it.” 

On keeping the weight off for good she says: “If you want to change your body you can’t just diet; if you do that, you lose weight, then get fat. You’ve got to commit to a whole life change and teach yourself a whole new lifestyle... It isn’t fun, but it never will be. 

I don’t deny myself anything – I still eat chocolate and cake and always will. Everything in moderation.” “When I started exercising I couldn’t even do one sit-up! 

By the end of the first week I could do three, and that was a big deal. Now I work out every day and I just don’t feel good if I miss it. It’s amazing how quickly your fitness builds, but you have to really want it.” And through finding happiness within she’s found love too: “I have finally learned to let somebody love and treat me the way I deserve to be treated and that’s a great feeling. 

The thing is, if you think you don’t deserve to be treated well, you won’t be. 

A lot of girls don’t believe they deserve the best and their boyfriends walk all over them. I learned the hard way. But when I met Matthew [Mosshart, her boyfriend of more than a year] everything changed and I realised I’d never been in love before.” 

The full interview appears in the new issue of Cosmopolitan Body, on sale this Thursday 27th December.

Burning Calories

There are three ways of burning calories. Here's what they are and how you can influence your body into burning more calories.

How to Make Your Body Burn More Calories

You can make weight loss quicker and easier by increasing your metabolic rate and burning more calories.

Metabolic Rate is the rate at which the body burns up calories. A body that consumes 2500 calories a day, and burns 2500 calories a day will stay at the same weight. A body consuming 2500 calories daily but burning only 2000 will gain weight at the rate of about 1lb a week.

This explains why that ‘lucky’ person across the table from you doesn’t get fat from all that junk food.

You can do quite a lot to speed up your metabolism – the secret of burning calories lies in knowing what determines your metabolic rate and what you can do to influence it.

You burn calories to provide energy for three main functions:

Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)

This is the amount of calories you burn just by being alive – even when you are lying down, doing nothing. BMR accounts for approximately 60% of the calories burned for an average person.

Burning Calories for Activity

This is the energy used during movement – from lifting your arm to operate the remote control to cleaning the windows. This accounts for approximately 30% of the calories burned by an average person.

Dietary Thermogenesis

The ‘thermogenic effect’ described as meal-induced heat production – the calories burned in the process of eating, digesting, absorbing and using food.

How to Speed Up Your Rate of Burning Calories

You can influence all these factors, and speed up your rate of burning calories using some, or all, of the following tactics:

Build Muscle

Increase the amount of muscle in your body. For every extra pound of muscle you put on, your body uses around 50 extra calories a day. In a recent study, researchers found that regular weight training boosts basal metabolic rate by about 15%. This is because muscle is ‘metabolically active’ and burns more calories than other body tissue even when you’re not moving.

Training with weights just 3 times a week for around 20 minutes is enough to build muscle. Not only will you be burning more calories, you’ll look better – whatever your weight.

Move More

Although the average person burns around 30% of calories through daily activity, many sedentary people only use around 15%. Simply being aware of this fact – and taking every opportunity to move can make quite a dramatic difference to the amount of calories you burn.

The trick is to keep the ‘keep moving’ message in mind. Write the word ‘move’ on post-it notes and put them in places you’ll notice them when you’re sitting still. Then, take every opportunity to move – here’s some ideas for burning calories:

• Tap your feet
• Swing your legs
• Drum your fingers
• Stand up and stretch
• Move your head from side to side
• Change position
• Wriggle and fidget
• Pace up and down
• Don’t use the internal phone – go in person
• Use the upstairs loo
• Park in the furthest corner of the car park
• Stand up when you’re on the phone
• Clench and release your muscles

You’ll find lots of opportunities for burning more calories if you remember that you’re looking for them! Keep thinking ‘keep moving’.

Eat Spicy Food

There is evidence to show that spices, especially chilli, can raise the metabolic rate by up to 50% for up to 3 hours after you’ve eaten a spicy meal.

Drinks containing caffeine also stimulate the metabolism, as does green tea.

Aerobic Exercise

As well as the actual amount of calories burned during exercise – studies have shown that sustained, high-intensity exercise makes you burn more calories for several hours afterwards.

Try 30 minute sessions of heart rate raising exercise, such as vigorous walking, step aerobics, jogging, cycling or swimming, 3-4 times a week.

Eat Little and Often

There is some evidence to suggest that eating small, regular meals will keep your metabolism going faster than larger, less frequent meals. There are two reasons why meal frequency may affect your metabolism. Firstly, levels of thyroid hormones begin to drop within hours of eating a meal, and metabolism slows. Secondly, it may be that the thermogenic effect of eating several small meals is slightly higher than eating the same amount of calories all at once.

Provided your small meals don’t degenerate into quick-fix, high fat, high sugar snacks, eating little and often can also help to control hunger and make you less likely binge.

Excellent Tips To Help You Lose Weight

When it comes to losing weight, it is much easier said than done. If you have previously tried to shed a few pounds and failed, you are not alone. Millions of people attempt to lose weight each year to no avail. This isn't because they aren't capable of losing weight, and it doesn't mean they are lazy and without will power. All it means is that they don't have the right information with regards to weight loss. The following article is full of helpful tips and tricks that is sure to get you to your ideal weight. Read on and learn.

If you are trying to lose weight, you may be tempted to skip a meal or two here and there. However, this is simply a terrible idea. Starving yourself will not get you the results you desire, and it can seriously affect your health in a negative way. It may even cause weight gain, as your metabolism will drop a great deal. Instead, make sure to eat smaller meals throughout the day, spaced out every few hours. Eat breakfast so as to start your metabolism, and try to have your last meal before 8 pm. This method will keep you full throughout the day so that you won't have any hunger pangs, which will also reduce the likelihood of you having junk food cravings.

Consider taking a brisk walk prior to eating each meal. This will get your blood pumping and ready for digestion, while burning a few extra calories at the same time. In addition, when you workout right before you eat, you are more conscious of the foods you are consuming, so the chances of you making a poor decision for your meal is lessened dramatically. It also has the added benefit of giving your metabolism a little boost before each meal.

When it comes to snacks, how many times have you reached for a box of whatever is around and just started eating right out of it? This is never a good idea, because you don't realize how much you are consuming. Instead, make sure you take one serving of said snack, and then put the box away. While you still might be hungry, give yourself enough time to digest before going back for a second serving. Try and wait at least 15 minutes to give your stomach a chance to signal your brain that you are full.

One common misconception people have about losing weight is that they have to eat less. But if you forget about eating less and instead focus on introducing healthy foods into your system, you can actually consume more food than ever before. For example, consider adding more greens in the form of large salad. You will find them both filling and tasty.

Losing weight is going to be an uphill battle, but it isn't one that you are going to lose. Just make sure you use the tips mentioned in the article above, and you are sure to get the body you have always wanted.
