8. Burn Calories
Don’t just rely on diet, you also need to push your body in calorie counting and exercise to create the imbalance between the two and get weight loss flowing! If you have a calories deficit at the end of the day, you are losing weight, it’s as simple as that!
9. Portion Control
We all eat more food than we are supposed to, so when you plate up your dinner at night, take a second plate and transfer only two thirds of your original portion to actually eat. You can trick your eyes by using smaller plates too!
10. Better Sleep
Our bodies are much more receptive to exercise and diet when they are full rested, so make sure that you adopt a healthy and regular sleeping pattern to best compliment your weight loss regime.
11. Reduce Alcohol Consumption
The majority of hidden calories that people consume are always in the form of alcohol. There is no point counting calories all day only to drink three glasses of red wine every single night. Cut out the alcohol and see your stats improve!
