First Tip - drink plenty of water
Water is one of most effective weight loss tools. Drink plenty of water. Start with a big glass of water in the morning. Whenever you feel hungry drink a big glass water. Wait for at least half an hour. If you still feel hungry eat some fruit or food. The problem is over the years we have neglected to read our brain signals correctly. So even our brain is telling us that we are thirsty we interpret it as hungry and gobble up food. This is a never-ending cycle of eating more and more to try to quench our thirst.
Don't replace water with fizzy, sugary drinks or alcohol which contain large quantities of sugar and are detrimental to your health. Say no to all sugary, sweet drinks. Want some flavoring for your water. Add a hint of lemon juice or mint to it. Don't add sugar. it makes a great drink that you can sip all day.
Second Tip: Avoid Spaghetti and bread
Take a vow to avoid processed food. This includes pastas, noodles, spaghetti and bread. These foods contain loads of carbohydrates that simply settle around your belly at fat. For a week go with whole grains, fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds. A variety of foods will ensure that you get all the nutrients you need in the right amounts.
Third Tip - Exercise
Get up and get moving. Include lots of cardio exercises that get all the large muscle groups pumping. Kickboxing, jogging and dancing are just few examples of high-intensity exercises that really get your heart pumping and your muscles working hard for the next 7 days.
You will see quick results but what you need is a long-term plan that keeps away the fat permanently.
