Trying to drop a few pounds quickly? Here are some simple tips that could help...

Start a food diary

Write down whatever you eat throughout the day. Include even that little bite of chocolate or cake. Research says that people who maintain writing down all that they eat, tend to lose weight quicker than ones who don't. Once you have it in black and white, it is easier to cut out all the empty calories that you were consuming without meaning to.

Do weight-loss affirmations

Don't 'exercise'

 

Words like gymming, exercising put off a lot of people. So, take the focus out of 'exercising' and indulge in walking on beaches, swimming, washing your car, sweeping and mopping the floor, chasing your pet dog to even enjoying sex — all this will help you reduce weight without you being bogged down with the term.

 

Fall in love with water

 

That urge to reach out to a soft drink or any aerated, or sweet beverage, could be one of the major reasons for your increasing weight. Studies have found that you could be adding more than 10 kg per year, thanks to just aerated beverages.
