What are some best weight loss tips?

1. Start the exercise regime first. Rotate what you do and with which body area. Day 1, work legs and hips. Day 2, work torso. Day 3, work upper body. Day 4, legs and hips, day 5, torso, day 6 upper body. Day 7, sabbath - rest. At least a bit almost every day - walking/running or equivalent. Try to get in shape and build some muscle. As your body uses its stores of calories, your adipose tissue will shrink, and your muscle mass will increase percentage wise. Since muscle is more dense, you may not see a significant drop in weight, even though your body shape will improve and the measuring tape will look better too. Rotating the body area is needed since muscle mass is increased when the body area is resting: it is actually being rebuilt from the stress of the exercise, and comes back stronger than before.

2. Next, change your eating habits. Eat more protein, eat less refined foods, more complex carbs, veggies, fruits. Eat complementary foods if you don't eat meat for protein. Meats have all essential amino acids required to make protein to build muscle. Have bean dip with your corn chips, or beans and rice, or lentil and rice soup, etc. The beans/legumes have amino acids the grains/grasses (rice is a grass) don't and vice versa. When you eat them simultaneously, your body has all the amino acids needed to create protein to build muscle.

3. Have fun. Add fun stuff that keeps your body active. Gardening, biking, walking, playing golf, baseball, tennis, pickleball (I MUST try that), table tennis, volleyball, swimming, volunteering at an animal shelter to walk dogs, almost ANYthing that gets your body moving will help.

4. Set reasonable steps to your goals. If you need to lose 40 pounds, losing 40 pounds is NOT your goal. Your first goal should be more like "lose 5 pounds in a month". Your next goal would be to lose another 5 pounds in the second month, and so on. Your weight changes will typically slow down as you progress. Most of the time, this is because (as I mentioned) muscle is more dense than adipose tissue, so your body will shrink, you will still lose a bit of weight, but your muscles ratio will improve quite a bit!

5. Reward yourself. Might I suggest a great massage to relax those tense muscles and improve your performance. Periodic flushing of toxins from your muscles will help with your overall plan. Good luck.

There are just four tips you need:-

Healthy diet (Avoiding mostly processed, fatty and sugary foods)

Drink lots of fluids, preferably water

Regular exercise (you don't have to go mad, just 30 mins morning and 40 mins at night.

Good sleep regime, IF you can.( I'm probably the worst for that though)

weight loss is not about pills... it's a change that will stay with you forever. So you have to do it in small steps. In small steps, reduce and then totally eliminate sugar from your diet. Read the ingredients of the food you buy. No sugar, no aspartame...

slowly exchange carbs for protein, healthy fat, and fibre

create calorie deficit - decrease portions or add some sport.

don't stick to any specific diet. Try to eat everything that is healthy, your body needs nutrients. If you want to keep your hair, fingernails and skin looking healthy you have to eat nuts and seeds together with vegetables. Some carbs are needed to keep your pancreas working but also to maintain energy level. If you want to try keto, remember of doing breaks and eating more carbs every few weeks. You can also try intermittent fasting but start from 12/12 and slowly decrease eating window

Smaller more frequent meals, more exercise.
I won't go into details because that is pretty much it.
I lost weight even when I wasn't eating in a healthy way. I simply reduced the portions to smaller sizes and ate more often through-out the day instead of once or twice and I also exercised more.
That was all it took for me.

Consistency, but real life expectations.

I wouldn’t do a fad diet that you feel like is torture/ or that you’re missing out. Take baby steps and do something you know you’ll commit to.
Also stacking with healthy snacks vs cupcakes or whatever your guilty pleasure is helps.

Exercise of course. But a lot of times it’s diet. I’d say even though it doesn’t necessarily have to do w losing weight, staying away from certain foods that make you bloated. Bloating can make you appear to weigh more than you actually do. Some muscle growth is good as it burns fat quicker.

The only safe way to lose weight is slowly through a balanced diet and exercise. There r lots of short cuts but they r not healthy. Boxers cut weight through dehydration but it’s a temporary measure, just like when u r sick u can lose weight, mainly cos u r throwing up but again not a long term solution.

I've tried multiple methods and the only one that has worked is combining vitamin B1 with fat. If you do not eat meat, cheese and nuts also work.
