Therefore, we want to share these simple tips that will help you lose weight. These tips are healthy and only require adapting to them for rapid weight loss. - 80–20. This means that to avoid feeling deprived, eat healthily 80% of the time and for the remaining 20%, eat what you want but try not to overdo the portions. - Chia and flaxseed. These seeds can help you lose weight because they provide a feeling of fullness and contain good omega-3 fats. The best way to consume them is by soaking them overnight and drinking the water throughout the day. You can add stevia to sweeten it but it's preferable not to. You can add a bit of lemon juice or strawberries to enhance the flavor. Try to drink three glasses a day. - Little bread. The easiest and healthiest way to lose weight is to consume little bread and its relatives: pasta, potatoes, rice, and other similar foods. Try to eat only one serving of them per meal. - Don’t drink calories. For many people, the biggest sources of calories are beverages, and in hot weather, this worsens because people consume frozen coffee drinks that are loaded with sugar, flavored waters, juices, soft drinks, and the dreaded sodas. During this time of reclaiming your figure, drink water and treat all these beverages as if they were desserts. Consume them only once a week. - Sweet palate. Avoid desserts and everything sweet. This is because sugar disrupts insulin levels, which makes us feel hungry. At first, for many people, it’s hard to control sugar because we are almost addicted to it, but it’s only at the beginning; gradually the body gets used to it. - Drink water. This helps in various ways: it gives us a feeling of fullness and helps control hunger, keeps us hydrated, and eliminates cravings for sweet drinks. You can flavor water with lemons or other fruits. - Carnivorous. Meats and proteins are your allies in providing nutrients and controlling hunger. Use lean meats and cook them with little quality fat or none at all.
