Simple Tips for Fast Weight Loss Without Diet or Exercise
Losing weight can be a difficult and frustrating process, especially when you don’t have the time to commit to diet and exercise.[0] It is possible to lose weight without needing to alter your lifestyle drastically.[1] Here are some simple and effective tips for losing weight fast without diet or exercise:[2]
Drink Plenty of Water: Drinking enough water can help you to feel full and prevent overeating. Try to consume an amount of hydrating fluids that is equivalent to half your body weight in ounces every day.[3] Drinking plenty of water can also help to boost your metabolism, flush out toxins, and suppress your appetite. Avoid sugary drinks, such as soda or juice, which are high in calories.[2]
Intermittent Fasting: Intermittent fasting is becoming increasingly popular in the fitness and nutrition world, with many people seeing its benefits. Periodic fasting involves consuming food only within predetermined time frames.[3] For instance, you could limit your food intake to eight hours per day and fast for the other sixteen hours.[4] Studies have found that intermittent fasting is associated with weight loss ranging from 0.8% to 13%.
Strength Training: Weight training can also help lose fat while building muscle.[4] Research has revealed that when 3 pounds of lean muscle were gained, 4 pounds of fat were lost.[4] Resistance training has also been shown to reduce body fat percentage, body fat mass and visceral fat (the fat that surrounds your organs).[4]
Don’t Skip Meals: When you skip meals or go too long in between meals or snacks, you get overly hungry. This makes it much more difficult to make healthy choices, and it also makes it harder to not overeat later. A good breakfast can set you up for success in meeting your weight-loss goals. Research has indicated that having breakfast can help stave off hunger, thus diminishing the chances of having too much to eat or reaching for sugary snacks as a way to satisfy one’s appetite during the day.[5]
Exercise Regularly: Studies have found that even thirty minutes of moderate exercise per day can have a significant reduction on body weight and body fat percentage. A brisk thirty-minute walk a day can help you burn more calories and reach your weight-loss goals.
Reduce Carbs: Processed foods and sugar are high in calories and can contribute to weight gain.[6] Reduce your consumption of these items and go for whole, natural foods instead.[0]
