[gallery size="medium" td_select_gallery_slide="slide" td_gallery_title_input="How to lose weight fast" ids="117315,117316,117317"] By Mariam Nihal Here are ways, if used moderately will help you lose weight fast: 1. Drink lots of water. Especially closer to meals so you don't confuse hunger with thirst. Try having water half an hour before meals. 2. Eat a high-protein breakfast. But make sure to eat healthy carbs like brown toast in the morning instead of any other time. Your metabolism rate is high and you have the energy and time to burn this off. 3. Avoid sugar. And most importantly drinks infused with sugar even if it is fruit juice. 4. Snacking is dangerous. Plan your snacks, make sure they are healthy. Stay away from fried products. 5. Eat soluble fiber. 6. Eat mostly whole, unprocessed foods. The less ingredients and additives on the label, the better. 7. Eat your food slowly. Chew it and don't rush. 8. Eat regularly, at least 5 times. Don't starve and definitely don't wait too long between meals so you don't hog when you finally see food in front of you. 9. Meal plans. The most important facet. Plan your meals. Make sure food will be available when you're hungry. Plan all meals and don't let it slip or you will end up cheating and snacking on anything possible. Don't underestimate hunger. 10. Exercise. Don't forget to keep yourself active and in addition to your well controlled diet you will burn a few calories and hopefully a few inches. Ask your trainer to design a workout based on your body type or work on focus areas. 11. Sleep and rest well. Poor sleep is one of the causes of weight gain. It can also help get rid of bloating and stress eating. 12. Try a low-carb diet. Removing carbs from your diet can help lower your insulin levels, which lowers your appetite and can help you lose weight without hunger pangs. 13. Juice cleanse. This herbal remedy uses fresh juices that make up this strict detox plan. 14. For extreme measures, the military diet can help you lose up to 10 pounds in a week, but it shouldn't be done for extended periods of time.
