How to Lose Weight Fast - Know your Calorie Intake!
Every time you eat around 3500 unused calories, you body gains a pound. That means eating an extra hundred calories a day can lead to you gaining a pound every month. That makes it twelve pounds by the end of the year!
Sounds scary! Don't worry, you can control and even reverse the whole process.
To find out how many calories you are consuming in a day, use the free food journal and calculator at FitDay.
Keeping a track of your food intake will actually help you to lose more weight.
Quick Weight Loss Tips - Simple Diet Changes That Work!
Here are some simple diet changes that can help you lose weight fast.
Eat Whole Grains
Avoid eating any carbs unless they had at least 2 grams of fiber per serving.
Fiber helps you feel fuller longer and can keep you from snacking or eating more at a sitting. Also, your body cannot digest fiber. So every gram of fiber you eat is 4 calories off your daily total. Eat the recommended 25-35g a day and that's 100-160 calories off a day.
Cut Out The Extra Sugar
The tough thing about today is that excess sugar is put into everything. If you like your coffee sweet, try some sweetener. It will save you 60 calories a tablespoon.
If you like soda, drink diet or flavored water. Stay away from high processed sweets and desserts. It's ok to allow yourself a treat here and there but don't go overboard.
Eat More Protein
Get 30-40% of your calories from lean protein.
Protein helps you build muscle, which helps you burn more calories. Combine protein with exercise and your body can't help but slim down.
NEVER Skip Meals
If you skip a meal your body goes into starvation mode. It will decrease energy output by lowering your metabolism in an effort to save fat and muscle stores. If you are trying to lose weight, you do not want a slower metabolism. Skipping meals can also lead to cravings and binge eating.
Practice Portion Control
Most people do not know what a proper portion size is.
3 oz. meat: size of a deck of cards (1 serving)
1 oz. cheese: size of 4 dice
Medium potato: size of a computer mouse
1/2 cup pasta: size of a base ball
Serving sized bagel: size of a hockey puck
Common Practices At and Away from Home
Practice packaging or measuring out your portions at home
Buy 100 calories snack packs
Ask for half of your meal to be wrapped when eating out
Order a small fry or soda instead of a large
Bring your own lunch to work
Drink LOTS of Water
You should be drinking 8 glasses of water a day to properly hydrate and regulate your body. Check out our Water Weight Loss Tips Page for more information on this subject.

Fast Ways to Lose Weight Quick through Exercise!
You need to increase your level of exercise and physical activities.

Use Muscle Confusion
Your muscles get used to doing the same thing over and over. If you want the pounds to melt away, change up your routine every 3-4 weeks. By doing this, you confuse your muscles, always making them responsive to your workouts.
Usually, people hit a plateau in their weight loss. Don't slow down your weight loss progress. Keep it consistent by always keeping your body guessing.
Follow these quick weight loss tips and you will quickly and effectively burn fat and lose weight.
