TOOLS FOR EASY WEIGHT LOSS
With just a few special tools you can be prepared for your weight loss journey.
A food scale is an incredibly valuable tool. Even if you are not the type of person to weigh and measure your food consistently, food scales are great to help you learn what a proper portion size looks like. These scales come in a wide variety of sizes, shapes, and price ranges. It is not necessary to spend a small fortune. Ideally, the scale would measure in both ounces and grams.

A set of measuring cups and measuring spoons is necessary for the same reason. Who knew a tablespoon of olive oil was such a small amount?
While certainly not necessary, a blender can be very useful. Smoothies are an easy way to get in the recommended dairy and fruit servings each day. I also use mine to make a mean margarita, but that’s another website…
A scale for body weight is a good idea. While I recommend weekly weigh-ins when trying to lose weight, daily weigh-ins are a great way to help with maintenance, once your ideal weight has been reached.
A tape measure is a great tool for weight loss. Many times when the scale does not show a decrease in weight, the tape measure can provide assurance that you’re on the right track.
One of the most economical weight loss "tools" is a good walking program. Comfortable walking shoes are the only necessary item when walking for weight loss, although a pedometer might be fun. If you’re at all competitive, you may enjoy increasing your steps daily or weekly. Most fitness experts recommend that we aim for 10,000 steps each day. This equates roughly to 5 miles over the course of the day!
I've found a new, really interesting site that caters to folks over 50 who want to stay fit by walking.
