Best weight loss tips.

I know the feeling; however, I have better results when I drink lots of water

Eat clean and healthy while having what you want but in moderation.
Drink lots of water!
Exercise- personally HIIT workouts always proove most effective. They are short but intense and continuously burn fat for the next day.
Eliminate any refined sugars
Reduce carbs but dont completely eliminate them.

Just the combination of HIIT workouts and eating clean should get you results.

As someone who has also not been seeing a lot of progress in about a month, I found these very helpful. I already drink a lot of water, and I haven't gotten to exercise too much due to my hectic final project schedule, but I will definitely start some strength training again! My goal for calories is 1200 now, but I am not insanely specific in some of my entries, so it gives me some wiggle room so that if I underestimate slightly, I'm still below my TDEE.

Thanks for the tips!

Avoid fat-free/sugar-free/diet/lite/no-sugar-added/100-calorie/non-foods. Eat real food. Eat real fat.
Protein + fat + fiber keeps you full. Aim for more protein and high fiber at every meal and snack.
Eat fewer calories than you burn each day.

- invest in a digital food scale and use it for everything you can
- never go more than 2 days in a row without doing some sort of intentional exercise
- take your body measurements; when the scale won't budge chances are your measurements are going down

Eat at a moderate deficit in a way that's sustainable for you.
Consistently and accurately log everything you eat and drink.
Exercise for fitness.

I agree completely. If you eat at a deficit to your TDEE you WILL lose weight over time. Losing weight alone will not make you healthy. Exercise is important in order to improve fitness and have FUN, not merely to assist with weight loss.

Tips i can remember. Apologizes, i may end up repeating something already stated above.

1. Drink 1-2 litres water through out the day, including weekends.
Drink your water with juice from 1/4 of a freshly squeezed lemon at least 1-2 days during the week as it has weight loss benefits plus makes water taste good.
2. Eat protein with each meal. It keeps you feeling full longer and it keeps the body from turning muscle into fat. Muscle burns calories even when you are at rest so its important to try maintain muscle composition during weight loss.
3 Get a digital food scale. Preferably one that has a tare button.(This allows you to eliminate the weight of the bowl when measuring).
4. Take photos of yourself in the mirror often 1-2 days a week for motivation.
5. Get a routine going and stick to it. eg mon/wed/fri=cardio training, tues/thurs/sat=strength training. That way you have a clear understanding of the type of exercise to expect each day and so your not missing out on either during the week. Usually takes about 6 weeks to become accustomed to routine so give yourself time to adjust.
6. Buy a HRM (Heart Rate Monitor). helps gather an accurate reading of calories burnt.
7. Body Tape Measure.
8. Mix up your cardio days. It doesnt have to be the same thing every time. Try something else, like sprint training, interval sprint + jogging(2k+), swimming, cycling, hill sprints, cardio circuit like HIITS etc .. Aim for at least 20+ minutes of consistent cardio with little to no rest.

Other non-essential items.
1. Fat caliper to measure your body fat percentage. You can find charts on google which can give you an idea of the amount of body fat you need before seeing definition/toning in your body.
2. Protein Supplement. Whey Protein Isolate(WPI). Buy protein that is high in protein per scoop. At least 80 percent. Divide the amount of protein in one serving by the serving size = percentage protein.
3. A set of resistance bands which include detachable handles. (For those days you can not get to the gym plus they are travel friendly) For strength training.
4. Door Way Pull Up Bar(for working out at home or in a hotel/motel etc). Strength training.
