General:

Trying to lose fat and get in shape? Follow these steps and you will be well on your way to having the body you’ve always wanted.

1) You Are What You Eat

We’ve all heard this saying and it’s pretty self explanatory. If you eat crap, you will feel crap, if you eat well, then you’ll feel well! If you always eat fatty foods then it goes without saying you will get fat. Feed your body the nutrients it needs and it will pay you back in ways you will love!

2) Determine Whether You’re Hungry or Thirsty

Most of the time when we feel hungry outside of normal meal times we’re in fact thirsty. If you find yourself feeling peckish throughout the day and feeling tempted to eat a sneaky chocolate bar to keep you going, drink some water. You may find that you were actually thirsty. Not only that, even if you are hungry, water will fill you up and curb the urge for you to binge.

3) Stay Hydrated & Only Drink Water

This is probably the most important of all. Making sure you stay hydrated (especially if you’re working out) speeds up your metabolism and burns calories! Drinking water is the best thing you can do to cut fat. Always drink 2 glasses of water right after you wake up in the morning as this kick starts your metabolism for the day and rehydrates you from what you lost out on whilst asleep. Green tea is also great to shed fat and detox your body.
