We all want to lose weight fast while still enjoying the foods we love and not working out all day. Experts say it's impossible, but I'm an eternal believer in having my cake, and eating it - literally. Try these tips to optimise what you are already doing, but consuming less calories, and burning more at the same time.
Food Swaps
Instead of consuming one large cinnamon roll, have two mini cinnamon rolls and a cup of orange juice. Or replace your standard full-fat ice-cream with homemade icecream, easily made from frozen whipped coconut cream, which is low in calories and rich in nutrients with cocoa powder. You can even add some banans.
Exercise
If you live a reasonably sedentary life, the thought of exercise alone can be exhausting. However, take it from a fellow couch potato: any exercise is good. Two months of yoga had a tremendous effect on my blood pressure and energy levels, so much so that I'm ready to take on something new.
Exercise needn't be boring either. If you don't like walking, jogging, skipping of weightlifting, consider a fun exercise that you can do at home, such as Zumba, Yoga, Tae-bo or Pilates.
Foods
Every little change for the positive helps when you're trying to lose weight and including these foods into your diet will enhance the taste of your meals and have a positive, fat-burning effect.
1. Turmeric
Turmeric brings a delicious taste and beautiful yellow colour to curries. It also contains curcumin that is known to inhibit the growth of fat cells. It also prevents fat storage.
2. Black Pepper
Rich in piperine, black pepper also blocks the formation of fat cells.
3. Red Peppers
Chilli, paprika and cayenne pepper contain capsaicin which refs up the metabolism and helps to curb your appetite.
4. Ginger
Ginger helps to break down fatty acids in your food, and helps them to be eliminated, rather than stored in the body as fat.
The Reason Why You Struggle to Lose Weight
Many people don't understand why they are overweight, despite eating healthy foods and exercising regularly. The problem is that much of the food available to us today is either genetically modified or lacking in essential nutrients. That's why it's so important to find a quality supplement that addresses nutritional deficiencies and imbalances effectively.
The body needs optimum nutrition to be healthy, and it needs to be healthy before it can lose weight and keep it off permanently.
