Lose Weight Without Losing Your Mind: The Small Changes that Get Results.
Diet
Eat more fiber, fruits, and vegetables. Reduce your intake of sugar, refined carbohydrates, added fat, saturated fat, and salt. You can also try eating mindfully, planning meals, and snacking smarter. Some good sources of lean protein include almonds, beans, eggs, grilled chicken, tuna, and tofu.
Hydration
Drink plenty of water (2–3 liters per day) to speed up your metabolism. You can also limit alcohol intake.
Exercise
Try to exercise for at least 40–60 minutes a day, or 150 minutes a week. You can break this up into smaller blocks of time, like a 10-minute walk three times a day. You can also try strength training, cardiovascular exercise, or a high-intensity interval training (HIIT) workout.
Lifestyle
Get enough sleep (7–8 hours per night) and manage stress. You can also try packing healthy lunches and snacks, walking to get the mail, or taking a class like yoga or pilates.
