How To Lose Weight Naturally

Losing weight naturally is the best possible way to shed those unwanted extra pounds.

Here are some tips for natural weight loss:

Only eat when you are hungry. This sounds so basic it's crazy. But most of us eat when we "should" eat. Breakfast, lunch, evening meal, coffee break snacks, and so on. Next time you decide to eat because your watch tells you to, double check and see whether you're really feeling hungry.

Only eat what you need. Too often, we go onto autopilot and finish everything in front of us. Even though we were satiated long before. Start listening to your body. As soon as you start to feel full, it's time to stop. OK, you may sometimes take a few more mouthfuls before finally listening to the signals being sent out by your body, but that's better than finishing another plateful plus dessert and that tempting chocolate next to the coffee.

Don't put any foods "off limits". No matter what the diet books and the government tells you. They'll only become more and more tempting. That chocolate cake will start to chant to you like the sirens sang to Odysseus. And eventually you'll give in and eat more (likely much more) than you would have eaten if you'd just had a small bite or two when the temptation first raised it's ugly head. Far better to have the occasional treat and make food exciting than to face yet another salad without the dressing.

Drink plenty of water. Again, some diets will suggest that you eat foods that are natural diuretics. These are great for the satisfaction of losing pounds fast. But in reality, all you're doing is losing water from your body. We need water. We need to keep hydrated. So keep drinking water. Ideally just regular, neat water. Tap or filtered. If that's too boring, add a slice of lemon or a twist of lime or a squeeze of orange juice. But keep your caffeine consumption down (without making it more tempting by putting it off limits).
