Sleep well

Don't sleep too long or too short because according to a study done by researchers at Laval University in Quebec, people who slept more than 8 hours and people who slept less than 6 hours were more likely to gain weight than people who slept the normal 7-to-8 hours. Image Source: Getty
Walk more

If you don't have time to go on an exercise program , buy a pedometer, and try to get in 10,000 steps a day to burn an extra 100 calories or more everyday which adds up to you losing over 10 pounds a year with minimal effort on your part. Image Source: Getty
Drink more water

Drinking more water lowers the amount of fat stored in the body. If you don't drink ample water then as a result, your kidneys may pass most of its unfinished work to your liver. One of your liver's functions is to help your body burn stored fat for energy and it can't perform that job fully if it has to do the kidney's job also. So it is always recommended to drink lots of water. Image Source: Getty
Drink green tea

Studies show you can burn 35-to-43% more fat during the day when you drink 3-to-5 cups of green tea. If you do not have time to make your own green tea then you can simply take a green tea diet pill supplement. Image Source: Getty
Chew your food longer

Eat slowly. Your body doesn't realize that you've had enough to eat until several minutes after you've had it. You should chew everything you eat at least 8-12 times. Image Source: Getty

Avoid hunger

Eat light meals and snacks at regular intervals to avoid hunger that can temp you to eat more. Hunger can deviate you from the weight loss program. Eat a little amount of protein rich food such as yogurt, tuna, or beans as it will help you feel full for longer. Image Source: Getty
