Weight Loss Tips That Really Work!

It is a fact that women struggle more with weight loss than men, simply because men are more competitive and more active. We are going to set the record straight and see how a few weight loss tips for women can put us on the fast track to weight loss success.

Weight Loss Tip 1 – Enjoy your food, but eat smaller portions…

Let’s face it, food makes life more enjoyable. Have you ever met a very happy and vibrant person on a strict diet?, not likely. Your body needs different vitamins, nutrients and minerals which our body absorbs through the food we eat. So we are going to enjoy our food by combining it with tip number 1. Eat smaller portions by taking a smaller plate. Tip 1 is basically a psychology method in which your eyes see a full plate of delicious food, but remember it is a smaller plate and thus leaves you feeling satisfied.

Obviously, you can see that by following this tip, you can virtually cut your calories in half by following this one tip only.

Weight Loss Tip 2 – Increase your fibre intake…

Fibre is one of the most important things we need in our diet. The average human needs about 21 grams of fibre per day to stay healthy. I can almost guarantee you that if you calculate how much fibre you get in per day, it is not even close to 21 grams. Purchase a high fibre bran and have three small portions in the morning, afternoon and evening. This will remove all that nasty stuff clogging up your GI track and helps lowering cholesterol too.

Weight Loss Tip 3 – Cut the carbohydrates at night…

One of the biggest culprits halting a persons progress to weight loss is eating carbohydrates at night. Does this sound familiar?, you sometimes wake up late for work, skip breakfast, at lunch eat something small, and by the time you get home you are a starving lunatic, and subsequently eat a large meal and maybe even dessert.

The main reason this tip is so important is that you are eating a massive amount of carbohydrates an hour or two before bedtime, which brings us to this simple explanation. Carbohydrates supply energy. You need to do something physical to burn that energy. What happens to that energy if it is not used?. Yes, you guessed it. It turns into fat. So the simple solution to this problem is eating more during the day and less at dinner.

Weight Loss Tip 4 – Burn some energy the easy way…

We are lazy as people, and the body naturally follows the path of least resistance. Therefore, we have to move out of our comfort zone, but with the minimal effort. If you have any chance to do something physical, do it. If you are used to taking the elevator, rather take the stairs. If you live close to work, walk instead of driving. Use any possible way you can to burn off excess calories.

These 4 weight loss tips are very easy to follow and takes minimal effort. Anyone can follow them, because they do not require radical changes to your lifestyle. This is truly as easy as it gets when it comes to losing a few pounds.
