The first secret to her weight loss success is to write down everything she eats.  This not only includes writing down the food, but also the calories.  When you do this, you will begin to realize exactly how much you are eating.  If you are a big nighttime snacker like Carrie Underwood, then seeing how many calories you eat in a day can give you an idea of how much you can snack on at night.

 

If the food you are eating doesn’t have a nutrition label, you can easily look up calories by visiting sites like CalorieKing.com.

 

Starting simply with exercise helped Carrie to stick to an exercise program.  While you may not have the money to hire a personal trainer, you can learn the best personal trainer tips by reading books such as Leigh Peele’s Fat Loss Troubleshooter.

 

To get more energy, learn to love cardio.  Working out your heart and lungs will not only melt the pounds off, but it will also lower your stress and help you to have more energy throughout the day.

 

Carrie also tries not to stress out about the scale.  Having a positive attitude will not only help you to lose the weight, but it will also help you from becoming too obsessed with losing weight.  Keep a positive attitude, and remember that being healthy is far more important than being skinny.
