Brush your teeth after dinner

A lot of people have the tendency to snack when watching TV at night. This is not a good choice because the calories consumed are more difficult to burn since there is minimum body activity at night. A nice trick is to brush your teeth after dinner so that you lose the desire for snacks. You can also make it a habit to drink a glass of water after dinner to keep your stomach full.

Cold temperatures are better than warm

The body needs to burn more energy when in cold temperatures to keep the body warm and at normal temperature levels. This has a positive impact in the overall fat burning process. It may not be the most efficient way to lose weight but it is a factor that helps.

Hot and spicy foods increase your metabolism

It is a proven fact that hot and spicy foods can increase your metabolism. This is because they accelerate the body’s thermal rate thus giving a boost to the fat burning process.

Water is vital for weight loss success

Do not underestimate the power of water in losing weight. Water has 0 calories, it can give you a feeling of fullness thus you will eat less, it helps you flush toxins from your skin and body and keeps your body organs hydrated and in good condition. 6-8 glasses of water per day are enough for the average person. Start and end your day with a glass of fresh cold water and do not forget that our body is 75% water and we need to continuously re-fill our reserves.

Fiber is your weight loss friend

Fiber is very important in your weight loss diet for many reasons. First it can keep you full for longer periods, second it cleans your insides and last but not least it can boost your metabolism which means faster weight loss.

Do not take cream with your coffee

 Many people follow a diet to lose weight but they drink their coffee sweet with milk and cream. This literally can destroy your efforts especially when you drink 5-6 coffee drinks per day. Instead try to get used to black coffee with no sugar. Once you get into the habit of drinking black coffee you will also realize that it tastes better.

Walking is one of the easiest ways to lose weight

Do not be afraid to walk. Every time you get a chance to walk see this as an opportunity to shed a few pounds.  Try to find ways to walk as much as you can. You can cleverly park your car away from your office so that you get a chance to walk from and to your work on a daily basis. While at work ignore the elevators and do some cardio exercises by using the stairs.
