Ten Top Dieting Tips

top dieting tipsWeight loss is as difficult and complicated as you want it to be. The main principle to losing weight evolves the most simplistic of approaches that we have somehow forgotten, preferring a combination of science and magic.

If you were to consume less calories than you expel (or burn) common sense and simple mathematics would dictate that your daily or weekly step on to the weighing scales would present you with a downward trend.

With this in mind here are 10 top (highly unoriginal) things to do to aid you in your weight loss attempt.

1. Eat only when you feel hungry - comfort eating is not that comfortable when you consider the calories you are introducing into your body. Chew your food well before swallowing and don’t eat to over indulgence.

2. Drink plenty of fluid - one of the best natural appetite suppressant is water. It is cheap, effective and doesn’t cause side effects.

3. On the subject of drinking fluid, the next time you are hungry - drink a glass of water. The messages that our brain recieves regarding hunger and thirst are remarkeably similar. So before reaching for a snack, drink a glass of water - it could be thirst.

4. According to the modern concept, a balanced diet with high but healthy protein and moderate carbohydrate along with regular fitness exercises helps best to reduce weight. Protein burns fat and conserves muscle mass.

5. Never eat just before bedtime - this is the worse time to consumer food. Eat a larger portion at the start of the day, slightly smaller around lunch time and smaller still for dinner or in the evening.

6. Be active - You cannot burn a sufficient amount of calories if you are a couch potato. Dance, run, do sports ….. be active

7. Dont eat to relieve stress - if you feel stressed see number 6.

8. It is often said that you eat with your eyes. By putting your food on a smaller plate it will give the impression of a larger meal. Or wear a blindfold!

9. Avoid alcohol - if the temptation is too great to resist, a pure spirits such as Vodka, rum or gin is the lowest calorie option.

10. Do something - you cannot lose weight by simply browsing the internet looking for best diet tips
