Ten Tips for Easy Weight Loss

You may calculate your calorie intake for each meal, but you could also try a few strategies that may help you achieve long-term weight loss and don`t require a great effort. Here are ten of them:

Tip #1: Check your weight once per week.

There`s no use to check your weight every day since your body may retain more water one day. Once per week is enough to correctly monitor your weight loss results.

Tip #2: Don`t spend more than two hours per day in front of the TV.

Adults that spend more than two hours per day in front of the TV have a seven percent higher calorie intake compared to those who spend less time in front of the TV, according to studies.

Tip #3: Talk to a friend three times per week.

If you decided to start a diet, the long-term moral support is extremely important. Friends may help you stick to your diet and resist in front of temptations.

Tip #4: Consume four grams of fibers per meal.

A diet rich in fibers may provide you the daily calorie intake without feeling hunger between meals. Women who consume less than thirteen grams of fibers per day have a higher risk to gain weight compared to women who stick to the daily recommended dose of fibers, studies showed.

Tip #5: Do 5,000 extra steps per day.

Regularly, a person with a normal physical activity does 5,000 steps per day. By increasing their number, you may have benefits such as low LDL cholesterol, higher levels of HDL cholesterol, stable blood pressure, stable blood sugar levels, and weight loss.

Tip #6: Write down what you eat.

Tip #7: Sleep seven hours per night.

People who don`t spent enough time sleeping have low levels of a hormone that gives the sense of fullness. It was showed that women who sleep with four hours less have a 234% higher risk to become obese.

Tip #8: Drink eight glasses of water per day.

Water doesn`t only quench your thirst, it also enhances your metabolism.

Tip #9: After nine hours of work, rest!

People who spend time at work after schedule are more probably to gain weight unlike those who respect the normal working schedule, according to studies.

Tip #10: Avoid high-carb products.
