Sitting indoors has been a major reason for many people to gain weight and therefore today we will discuss some of the effective ways to lose weight.
However, there are people who lose weight, change their lifestyle and take some challenging, life-changing decisions.
It is difficult to lose weight with a sedentary lifestyle, so you need to understand that you might lose some weight but after a while, you will gain that weight.
5 Hacks To Lose Weight:
1. Sleep:
Fix your sleeping hours. Most people who do not sleep on time seem to put on more weight. Even our body organs run on a clock, also known as the circadian rhythm. Therefore, people who do not sleep on time gain weight, and this also leads to uncertain timing related to your meals. Your digestive system is also connected to the circadian rhythm, not having meals at a fixed time is a key factor to gain weight. The internal organs (nearly 80%) are regulated by the food we eat, which means the timing of your food is crucial. If you have your meals 2 to 3 hours late than the previous day, this can also disturb your circadian rhythm.
2. Burn fat naturally:
To understand the fat burning technique, you need to understand the types of fat. One is brown fat, and another one is white fat. The brown fat helps to reduce white fat once activated. The brown fat generates heat in response to cold and this helps in the reduction of white fat, mostly stored around the belly area. You can have a well-balanced diet along with some natural fat burners to lose weight like black coffee, green tea, Ceylon cinnamon, dried ginger, cayenne pepper and black tea.
3. Suppress your appetite naturally:
You can easily use simple seeds to reduce your appetite naturally. Flax seeds and chia seeds both are helpful to reduce your appetite. Having one tablespoon of flaxseed powder (no capsules or seeds) is good to naturally reduce your appetite. If you want, you can also use chia seeds powder but flax seed seems more effective to lose weight. It is better to use powder for effective results. This will also help you get a good amount of omega-3 fatty acids and fibre.
4. Eat slowly and chew properly:
Remember that technique where you need to eat slowly because it takes 15 to 20 minutes for your brain to receive the signal whether you are full. Yes, you need to follow this technique. If you eat fast and finish your meal within 5 to 10 minutes, you will end up eating and you might also face digestion issues because if you are eating fast you are not chewing your food properly. That is why it is advisable to eat with joy and focus on your food and keep your gadgets away. Leaving your gadgets while eating could be a better way to execute this technique.
5. Hydration:

Yes, consuming two cups of water before having your meals helps to eat less up to 20%. You can also drink two glasses of water before your meals that can help you lose weight up to 44%.
