Hi

1. Drink lots of water instead of fizzy drinks and fruit cordials.
2. Drink milk instead of semi-skimmed, or semi-skimmed for skimmed.
3. Eat lesser amounts of food than usual.
4. Avoid the intake of tea or coffee with sugar.
5. Take smaller portions of the food that you enjoy.
6. Avoid a second helping at dinner.
7. Unhealthy treats like confectionaries; sugar biscuits and crisps between meals should be cut down.
8. Cut down on beer or alcohol.

Keep sharing and reading

Thanks

Hello
The healthiest way to lose weight is neither crash diets nor bursts of exercise. The body likes slow changes in terms of food and exercise.

For example, someone who hasn't exercised for years shouldn't rush into running miles a day or pounding the treadmill. Not only will the struggle to do so leave you feeling disheartened and demotivated, you're also far more likely to injure yourself and set your fitness levels back further.

The same goes for people who suddenly start starving themselves. Diets that severely restrict calories or the types of food 'allowed' can lead you to be deficient in the nutrients and vitamins that your body needs.

So, if you need to lose weight, what should you do?
Energy needs and weight loss

Your body uses food for energy. It stores any excess energy as fat. This means if you eat more food than your body needs for daily activities and cell maintenance, you will gain weight.

yeah...absolutely right dude...everything we can do, check that fist of all that it's suit on us or not..? the same way doing all that thing for loosing weight as per your body stamina as well as your body capability...don't jump directly to do much harder that you never had tried at once....first go to the lower once in all, if it's the matter of exercise or diet control or whatever you do....and gradually when you came to the improvement and than increase it..slowly...!
and see the results...!

That is some really good tips and well worth trying and will work wonders for some but for those who keep failing or starting and stopping or they just can't seem to drop the weight it maybe worth trying some therapy.

Its surprising why some people can't lose weight, this can be due to self sabotaging behaviors or depression and a range of other reasons, food can become an addiction based relationship and an emotional trap, you eat to feel good and after you have eaten you feel guilty so you eat to feel good again, and so it goes on Sad

If you try and push people to lose weight to fast it can make it even worse, so always encourage and don't push or it can lead to more serious psychological problems.
