Weight loss tips

While weight loss tips won't guarantee that you will be successful, having the right information at your fingertips can certainly make the process a little easier.

As with all weight loss tips you need to check they are from a good source. These can help you to offset the nonsense and misinformation put out by companies who want you to buy their products.

Regardless of your objectives for slimming, there are so many different routes to ensure that you are looking good both short and medium term. You will also be making changes that suit your lifestyle too.

So here are our top weight loss tips to help you fight your own battle of the bulge:

  • Set realistic goals: While you will read plenty of diet plans and pills promising that you can lose 10 pounds per week, any qualified doctor or dietician will tell you that such a figure is unrealistic - a safe, healthy and sustainable rate is 1 - 2 pounds per week. It may not sound like much, but just one pound per week would equal almost two stone in 6 months time.

  • Ditch the junk calories: Most people have hidden, or junk calories in their diet - alcohol, junk food, sugary sodas. Simply getting rid of these junk calories can make a huge difference in the long term.

  • Eat your five a day: We are constantly being exhorted to eat our 5 a day, and it really makes sense if you want to ditch the fat. Fresh fruit and vegetables contain few calories, and have lots of great nutrients. It's hard to gain weight if you are eating lots of fresh fruit and veg.

  • Learn to love water: Water is a key dieting. It is calorie free, helps to fill you up, and is needed by the body to metabolise fight. What more could you ask for?
