Below are some tips on how to lose weight.

1. Choose a low–carb diet
If you want to lose weight you should start by avoiding sugar and starch (like bread). Sugar and starch may increase your hunger, avoiding it may decrease your appetite to an adequate level.

2. Eat when hungry
Don’t be hungry. The most common mistake when starting a low carbohydrate (carb) diet, reducing carb intake while still being afraid of fat. The problem is that carbs and fat are the body’s two main energy sources. It needs at least one. Avoiding both carbs and fat results in hunger, cravings. The solution is to eat more natural fat until you feel satisfied. You can eat butter, full-fat cream, olive oil, meat including the fat, fatty fish, eggs and coconut oil.

3. Eat real food
Another common mistake when eating a low-carb diet is getting fooled by the creative marketing of special “low carb” products. An effective low carb diet for weight loss should be based on real food like, meat, fish, vegetables, eggs, butter, olive oil, nuts, etc.

4. Stress less, Sleep more
Chronic stress may increase levels of stress hormones such as cortisol in your body. This can cause increased hunger and result in weight gain. Letting yourself get a good night’s sleep is another way of reducing stress hormone levels.

5. Exercise smart
Exercise burns the body’s glycogen stores, which are essentially carbohydrate. This means that after a workout, you can eat a little more carbs than you otherwise can permit yourself, without negative effect on insulin or fat storage. Exercise can both make you feel and look better.

Dear Fred,

It was a real sorrow that I heard this morning of your great loss. I knew your mother was ill. For your brother told me several weeks ago. However, he at that time did not seem to think. The illness was very serious, the news of your mother’s death came to me as a shock. You have my sincere and heartfelt sympathy, my dear fellow, in your sorrow. I know you will feel it deeply, for you always thought so much of your mother and loved her so truly. I feel it also as a personal loss to myself for your mother was always very kind to me. I admired her a good and noble woman. Her death must be a terrible grief to your father too. Please assure him of my sincere sympathy.

Words, I know, are poor comforters. “The heart knows its own sorrow”, and in such sorrows we are always alone. However, it is not mere words when I say that I feel with you in your sorrow.

Your sincere friend,

Jack
