Try to quench your hunger pangs with nutritious homemade juices and soups that are light, filling and tasty all at the same time. In other words, a heavy meal is a strict ‘No-No’ for serious weight watchers.

2 Keep healthy snacks at home

When you are on a weight loss diet, hunger pangs may strike you any time. So, you need to keep your healthy snacks near at hand. If you have healthy snacks ready, you’ll never go for the unhealthy ones. Let go the unhealthy fried snacks like chips or sugary ones like candies, muffins and bring in the healthy weight loss-friendly ones such as dark chocolate, hard boiled eggs, roasted chana, roasted peanuts, yoghurt etc.

3 Go for walks

Walking is one of the simplest weight loss exercises and is quite effective too. But, most of us tend to overlook the weight loss benefits of walking. According to researchers, 30 minutes of brisk walk regularly can let you burn as much as 150 calories and more. So, make it a point to go for walks regularly to burn out those unwanted calories!

4 Don’t use lifts

Generally we have a tendency to avoid stairs and choose lifts or elevators. But, climbing stairs is one of the best weight loss aerobic workouts and helps you burn considerable amount of fats 60 minutes of stair climbing session each day can make you burn as much as 532 calories per session.

5 Don’t starve yourself

In most cases, people trying to lose weight fast practice exhaustive dieting and in the process, deprive their body of essential nutrients. But, you need to keep in mind that you cannot fight the battle against obesity with an impoverished body. Nutritional support is very much needed when you are trying to drop your extra pounds. Without nutritional backup you cannot boost your body’s metabolic rate. Moreover sacrificing food at some point of the day may urge you to overeat later during the day.

6 Spice up your foods

Spicy food as per scientific research controls your appetite to a large extent. So, include hot cayenne pepper generously in your diet. A compound called Capsaicin in Cayenne Pepper can promote fat burning through a process called thermogenesis. Thermogenesis produces heat in your body internally and that promotes fat burning.

7 Eat home cooked meals

Ready-to-eat-meals and pre-packaged meals are very much a rage now but such meals are actually the culprits. Such meals are high in sodium, unhealthy fat and preservatives and really very fattening. So, to lose your extra pounds you need to get into the habit of eating only fresh, home-cooked meals.

8 Feast on proteins

Proteins are the key nutrients for efficient weight management. Your body takes time to digest proteins and spends about 80 to 100 more calories per day to metabolize the proteins you consume. The result is a slimmer body, a curvy waistline and a flatter belly! Some examples of protein-rich foods are eggs, chicken, red meat, yoghurt, cheese, milk, fishes etc.

9 Feast on veggies

Vegetables of every kind should be included in your diet generously. Vegetables are rich in fiber and fiber is needed for healthy weight management. According to a study published in the journal ‘Nutrition Reviews’, increase in the consumption of fiber-rich foods could aid in weight loss by suppressing your appetite. Fiber also cleanses your gut and boosts digestion thereby helping assimilate nutrients from food in a much better way.

10 Drink water

Make it a point to drink 8-10 glasses of water per day. Water hydrates your body and speeds up metabolism significantly. According to recent findings your metabolism can increase by 30% post drinking of 0.5 liters of water. Furthermore, it has been declared that drinking a glassful of water 30 minutes before mealtime could cause you to take fewer calories at meal.

11 Avoid ‘fizzy’ Drinks

Fizzy drinks are loaded with sugar and thus, are full of empty calories. Drinking Fizzy Drinks can increase the fat content of your body and make you blow out of proportion in shape and size. So, avoid fizzy or carbonated drinks and rely only on the freshly extracted fruit juices you can make at home.

12 Closed the doors to refined carbs

Refined Carbs are the worst enemy for weight loss. So, avoid consuming refined carbs like white bread, pasta, white rice, pastries, added sugars, soda, breakfast cereals, sweets etc. Thus, refined carbs are a strict No-No for healthy weight management.

13 Eat slowly

Eating slowly stands for chewing your food thoroughly and converting it into a mushy lump prior to swallowing. Eating slowly gives your brain the needed time to realize that your tummy is full now and you don’t want any more…your brain actually needs some amount of time to realize that and eating hurriedly could end you up packing in many extra calories within the time taken by your brain to realize that you have already eaten to your stomach’s fill. Several researchers have shown that eating slowly could stimulate the production of fullness hormones in your body and suppress your appetite.
