You know you have weighted, err, waited more than enough. Soyou decide to get yourself started on some weight loss programsand regimens.

In all likelihood you would draft yourself withthe ones that promise you sure-hit quick weight loss tips.

So you sweat and strain with your chosen weight loss program,perhaps ecstatically so at the start.

Sure your body gets allaching with all your joints and knuckles cracking in epicproportions like ungreased door hinges of horror movies.

Looking at yourself in the mirror, you cringe at the sight ofthis blob staring back miserably at you still with the extraflabs flapping around somewhere there.

You sigh inexasperation. Whatever happened to the weight loss program thatpromised to sculpt your body to whistle-bait shape?

You screamin desperation. You know you have just been weigh-layed, erragain, way-laid by some pseudo weight loss masters.

Truth is, we tend to pattern our weight loss mindset after thementality of that of some backyard gym instructors.

We tortureourselves with the age-old dictum "No pain, no gain." Let'sface it, while it did miracles for Rocky, it sure did get himcrippled (or, killed) in the final picture.

We are no Rocky. We are ordinary human beings withnot-so-ordinary day-to-day affairs. Some are multi-tasked likethe housewife who has to master doing diapers in one hand,pitching copies in the other, while applying tantric massage onher hubby with her feet.

All throughout she is troubled betweengoing for weight loss surgery and taking weight loss pills.

"No pain, no gain" is foolishly macho and downright false. Ofcourse, there's bound to be some discomfort when you're justgetting started with your own weight loss program, and laterwhen you start to reach out for new weight loss goals.

But there's an important difference between discomfort andpain. Learn it. Listen to your body say, "Moderation in allthings." Pain means injury. Pain makes you quit the weight lossprogram.

If you don't like your chosen program of weight loss exercises,you won't stick with it. It will become a chore, you'll slackoff and finally give up the entire weight loss program.

Tailoryour weight loss exercise to yourself, not to what others do orto some false image generated from within or without.

Of coursewhen you're just getting started, weight loss may seem like achore. But appearances are not always reality.

Realize that your body and mind would always prefer being a couch potato,and will rebel at the thought of exertion in the weight lossprogram, so you've got to give any form of exercise a chance togrow on you before you start analyzing whether it's for you ornot!

The key is to turn weight loss exercise into play, thenyou'll succeed and persist. Lack of joy makes you quit.

So spice up your own program of weight loss exercises bycustomizing it according to your our own weight loss needs.Variety is still the spice of weight loss.

You should not besatisfied just with pounding the pavement or sweating in a gym.

Variety makes you learn how much you're capable of. Play around,pick and choose, experiment with your own customized personalweight loss program.

Whatever weight loss exercises you choose from the following,try to get your heart rate up to about 70 percent of your safemaximum.

You can do that by using this formula: 220 minus yourage equals your Maximum Safe Heart Rate. Keep it at this ratefor a solid half-hour.

Don't go over the 85 percent rate formore than a couple of minutes at a time. Of course, heart ratedoesn't figure into strength builders such as weigh lifting.

Note : The calories-burned figures that follow are for a110-pounder. A 154-pounder should add on another 28 percent tothat number, while a 198-pounder should add 55 percent.

Walking : Calories burned at 2 mph is 145 per hour; 3 mph is235 per hour; at 5 mph is 435 per hour.

Jogging : Calories burned at 5mph is 530 per hour which isroughly about a 12-minute mile.

Jumping Rope : Calories burned is 600 calories per hour.

Swimming : At 30 yards per minute (about one lap of anOlympic-size pool), calories burned is 330 per hour.

Water-walking : Calories burned is 360 per hour in a fast game.

Bicycling : Calories burned at 10 mph is 390 per hour.

Aerobic Dancing : For low impact, calories burned is 240 perhour and for moderate impact, 350 per hour.

Square Dancing : Calories burned is 350 and up - way up! - perhour.

Table Tennis : Calories burned is 450 hour.

Rowing : Calories burned is 600 per hour.

Cross-country skiing : Calories burned at 10 mph is 600 perhour.

Weight Lifting : Calories burned is 250 per hour.

Martial Arts : Calories burned is 620 per hour.

You really won't know what you like unless you try it. And ifyou haven't tried it don't knock it.

Try mixing gardening withwalking, housework with rowing, bicycling with weight lifting,dancing with martial arts, table-tennis with cross-countryskiing, outdoors with indoors, team sports with solitarysports.

Without variety, humans get bored and stale. They stopreaching. Boredom makes human beings quit.
