1. Workout smarter
Studies show people lose more weight and keep their metabolism high by doing 3 or 4 shorter 10 minute workouts as opposed to a traditional 30-40 minute cardio workout. A study at the University of Pittsburgh showed participants who did the shorter workouts more often lost roughly 50% more weight than those who did the longer workout.

The reason this works is because you keep your metabolism high all day as opposed to spiking your metabolism and letting it go back down.

2. Drink Water
Drinking a lot of water actually lowers the amount of fat your body stores. Plus, you’ll feel more full throughout the day!

3. Eat More Fruits and Veggies
When you eat raw fruits and vegetables, your body has to burn a lot more calories to break them down as opposed to a normal meal. Plus, fruits and vegetables tend to make you feel fuller and are healthy food choices!

4. Drink Green Tea
Some studies suggest you can burn up to 40% more fat when you drink 3-5 cups of green tea a day. Green tea is great for the digestive system and is an excellent alternative to sodas, juices, and coffee.

5. Eat More Fiber
Eating fiber has all kinds of benefits such as speeding up your digestive system, flushing your colon, and making you feel full.

6. Eat More Protein
Protein speeds up weight loss by maintaining lean muslce in your body which raises your fat-burning metabolism. Plus, protein is another substance that helps your body feel full.

7. Limit Your Salt
Consuming more than 1 tablespoon of salt a day will cause you to retain water and gain weight also causing bloating. If you have a lower salt intake, your body will flush the excess water and help maintain your body weight.

8. Get More Active
Eating well is only half of the equation. By adding hpysical activity, you’ll burn more calories and lose weight.

9. Don’t Skip Breakfast
Studies show people who do not eat breakfast are 4 times more likely to be overweight than those who eat breakfast. This is because you should get your metabolism started in the beginning of the day by eating something. Plus, you’ll probably end up eating less the entire day since you’ll start off with a full take as opposed to an empty one.

10. Take Multivitamins
Taking multivitamins helps give your body the nutrient it needs. If your body doesn’t get what it needs,you will feel hungry and probably eat more than you need.
