5 Fat Slashing Tips on How to Lose Weight in 30 days
Below are 5 ways on how to lose weight in 30 days - but more importantly keeping the weight off for good-
1. Don’t eat to cure the blues - reaching for the biscuit tin because you feel stressed? The key to fat loss is recognizing your own triggers for emotional eating. If you want to eat, and you’re not hungry - stop and ask yourself ‘What is it I really want?” : Is it to feel less anxious, sad, stressed? If the answer is ‘Yes’, then you need to workout ways to deal with the situations that are causing you to feel anxious or depressed. Doing some exercise could help ease stress, or you might feel better if you call a friend to have a chat.
2. Carbs are plentiful and readily available but you don’t have to drastically reduce carbs. Choose the good kinds of natural carbs over the processed kinds - better yet, think fiber, not carbs. Focus on a high fiber fitness meals. The key is to focus your carb intake on fruits and vegetables, which are loaded with loads of nutrients, carbs and fiber!
3. In descending order just like a nutrition label, drink plenty of water, shoot for 2 grams of protein per kilograms based on your lean mass weight. If this is complicated use your realistic goal weight. And stop thinking all fat is enemy - it’s not. Get plenty of omega 3 fatty acids. You can try flaxseed - 1 tablespoon per 45 kg of lean mass body weight. However, avoid trans fat like the plague. Check the ingredient’s list and if the label says hydrogenated put it back on the shelf.
4. Change your habits in stages. Allow yourself plenty of time to make small changes to your eating habits, such as choosing reduce fat milk instead of full fat milk. When you’re comfortable with this, make another change. For example, snack on fresh fruit rather than biscuits. The same goes for activity. Gradually increase the intensity and the amount of physical activity you do each day. Find activities that you enjoy.
5. When working out - don’t do isolated muscle exercises like crunches or bicep curls. Give compound training a go. Isolated exercises work on 1 small muscle group, whereas compound exercises work more than 1 muscle group. For example, if you do a Tricep extension (isolated exercise), you work on your triceps, but do a push up (compound exercise), and you work your chest and shoulders, as well as your Tricep muscles. Compound exercises are an amazing way to work multiple areas in the body in less time - and burn far more calories. So, make your resistance routine consist of a few compound moves like squats, lunges and dead lifts.
The above steps are just some of the ways on how to lose weight in 30 days. The great part about this is - these tips are manageable long term and if you follow it consistently, you will live a healthier lifestyle and lose more weight in a healthy manner. Weight loss is hard, but if you are consistent with your actions, you will lose weight in 30 days and more body fat will come off!
