Putting on weight may be the easiest thing for some of us while losing it is as tough as moving mountains. Many girls put on some weight in their teenage and struggle to take it off for years. If you are one of the teens struggling to lose weight, stay tuned!
Today, I am back with a post on “Ways to lose weight fast for teenagers”.
1. Drink plenty of water
Water gives your metabolism a kick start in the morning and helps in flushing out all the poisonous and deadly toxins from your system. Also, when you keep sipping water throughout the day, you feel fuller and consume lesser calories overall. You should also try and replace your other beverages like soda and canned juices with water as it saves you a lot of sugar and calories.
2. Workout 5 times a day
Working out keeps you fit, boosts your metabolism and reduces stress. Apart from that, when you workout you burn calories throughout the day which increases the number of calories you burn each day.
3. Cut on carbs and go green
While carbs may result in weight gain, try replacing it with proteins and soon you will notice fewer hunger pangs, sugar cravings and you will start losing weight effortlessly and efficiently. Also, protein helps in building lean muscle mass which makes you thinner and stronger.
4. Drink some caffeine before working out
A coffee before working out energizes your workout and makes you lose more calories than what you normally would. However, don’t go overboard with the caffeine as it makes you restless and messes up with your sleep patterns.
5. Strength train along with cardio
Doing exercises that will build your muscles helps you in toning and sculpting your body. Along with it, you also lose more calories when you have more muscles than fat in the body.
6. Cut down on sugar
Sacrificing the dessert after dinner or sugar in your tea will go a long way in making sure that you get the body that you desire and dream of. By cutting down sugar, you take off hundreds of calories away from your daily food intake without sacrificing on any vitamins and minerals.
7. Have a sound sleep
Having a proper sleep at night helps you to keep stress and cravings at bay all day long and helps you in making better food choices. Restful sleep also helps in giving your metabolism a boost and your body also builds muscle while you doze off.
8. Eat from a 6-inch plate
When you eat from a bigger plate, you don’t realize when you are full and tend to binge eat. However, when you take small helpings in a smaller plate it gives you a feeling of fulfillment and you tend to consume lesser calories overall.
9. Have a weight loss buddy
Having a weight loss buddy helps you in being motivated always and you tend to lose weight faster. Ask your mom, hubby or a best friend to volunteer so that both of you can reap the benefits of having a healthier and fitter body.
10. Add variety to your workout routine
If you follow the same workout routine every day, chances are that you will get bored of it and quit. However, introducing variety in your workout sessions will keep you hooked on to the program effectively and give better results.
11. Don’t weigh yourself every other day
Weighing yourself every other day will not show much of a difference on the scale and instead, you might lose motivation if you are someone who gets motivated by seeing the numbers fall on your scale. Instead, choose one day of a week to weigh yourself and weigh on that day of the week at the same time, every time.
12. Eat fruits for snacks
Instead of having unhealthy snacks, snack on fruits. Fruits do not contain any artificial sweeteners or added fats and are abundant in vitamins and minerals, which are essential for different processes taking place inside your body.
13. Drink green tea
Green tea contains flavonoids knows as catechin which can increase fat burning process and help you lose weight. Apart from it, green tea is loaded with antioxidants that fight free radicals and keeps you ever young and youthful.
14. Eat fibers to keep cravings at bay
Eating fiber rich food suppresses your appetite and keeps you feeling fuller for a longer period of time. Some foods that are rich in fiber are roughage, fruits, and green leafy vegetables.
That’s all for today! Hope this helps!
