Drink 1 Glass of Water Before Every Meal<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">It is often claimed that drinking water can help with weight loss \u2014 and that\u2019s true.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">One study shows that drinking a glass of water about half an hour before meals helps you to eat fewer calories and lose 44% more weight, compared to those who didn\u2019t drink the water.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"2_Eat_Egg_For_Breakfast\"><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">2. Eat Egg For Breakfast<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Eating 3-4 egg whites and 1-2 full eggs in a day not only helps you give proper protein and healthy fat but also helps you to you lose weight.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Studies show that replacing a grain-based breakfast with egg can help you eat fewer calories and you feel full for a longer time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">If you don\u2019t eat eggs, then you can replace it with sprouts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"3_Drink_Green_Tea\"><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">3. Drink Green Tea<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the top-secret of Japanese slim figure is green tea. Unlike milk tea, green tea contains <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">small amounts of caffeine, it is loaded with powerful antioxidants which are believed to work synergistically with caffeine to enhance fat burning.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"4_Try_Intermittent_Fasting\"><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">4. Try Intermittent Fasting<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Intermittent fasting is a popular eating pattern in which people cycle between periods of fasting and eating. Normally the cycle has 16 hours of fasting and 8 hours of eating period. Beginners can start with 12-hour fasting and increase after some time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">It can be practiced twice in a week. But be sure during the eating period try to eat healthy homemade balanced food. Avoid packaged food and artificial juices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">If you want to know the intermittent diet plan, comment below.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"5_Cut_Back_on_Refined_Sugar\"><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">5. Cut Back on Refined Sugar<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Refined sugar is one of the worst ingredients in the modern diet. Most people consume way too much.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Studies show that refined white sugar consumption is strongly associated with an increased risk of obesity, as well as conditions including type 2 diabetes and heart disease.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">If you want to lose weight, cut back on refined sugar and replace it with jaggery or natural sugar. Next time when you are shopping for your monthly grocery, read the ingredients and the sugar content in that food.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"6_Use_Smaller_DarkColorPlates\"><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">6.

They usually eat in dark color bowls so that they can eat less.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"7_Keep_Healthy_Food_Around_in_Case_You_Get_Hungry\"><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">7.

Chew More Slowly<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Your brain may take a while to register that you&#8217;ve had enough to eat. Some studies show that chewing more slowly can help you eat fewer calories and increase the production of hormones linked to weight loss.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Also, consider chewing your food more thoroughly. Studies show that increased chewing may reduce calorie intake at a meal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"10_Get_Good_Sleep\"><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">10. Get Good Sleep<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Sleep is highly underrated but maybe just as important as eating healthy and exercising.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Studies show that poor sleep is one of the strongest risk factors for obesity, as it\u2019s linked to an 89% increased risk of obesity in children and 55% in adults.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"11_Don8217t_Diet_Eat_Healthy_Instead\"><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">11.
