Weight Loss Trick~#10

Slide 11 of 11: In addition to fiber, protein is another important player in the weight loss game because it requires more energy to burn than carbs or fats and thus keeps you fuller longer. In fact, in a study in the journal Appetite, researchers from the University of Missouri compared the satiety effects of high-, moderate-, and low-protein yogurts on 24-28-year-old women, and found Greek yogurt, with the highest protein content, to have the greatest effect. For an added boost of protein and flavor, consider topping your Greek yogurt with some fresh berries and almonds and then pair with a hard-boiled egg. If you don't like the tang of Greek yogurt, you can always opt for high-protein cottage cheese instead. For more helpful eating tips, take a look at The 25 Best High-Protein Snacks!

Slide 10 of 11: Reducing your intake of added sugar is one of the most effective weight loss tricks, and you'll increase your chances of obtaining that bikini body you've always wanted if you swap simple carbs for high-fiber foods. The best part? Your fiber can come from any natural foods and yield the same results. In a study at the University of South Carolina, subjects who ate an average of 16.6 grams of fiber per day were put on one of two diets that increased their fiber intake to an average of 28.4 grams a day. One group got their additional fiber primarily from beans, while the second got their fiber from fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. After four weeks, both groups had lost the same amount of weight—an average of three pounds each— and both groups reported less hunger and more satiety. This despite the fact that the subjects didn't exercise or take any other steps toward weight loss other than to boost their fiber. To help you get there, we have a list of the best high-fiber snacks as well as 20 Different Ways to Eat 28 Grams of Fiber a Day.

Slide 9 of 11: Nearly all Registry participants reported that they modified their food intake in some way to lose weight, and a great place to start is by cutting your added sugar intake. The American Heart Association recommends no more than 100 calories per day from added sugars, or six teaspoons, for women, and 150 calories (nine teaspoons) for men, but most Americans are ingesting much more than that and it's contributing to the rapid expansion of waistlines. The good news is, if you want to slim down and keep the weight off, all you need to do is reduce the amount of added sugar you eat and the pounds will disappear rapidly. Reducing your intake of calorie-dense sugar carbs automatically reduces the amount of calories you're consuming on a daily basis, which forces your body to burn fat stored around your midsection for energy, rather than the sugars it takes from carbohydrates. Bye-bye excess weight! For tips on how to accomplish this mission, 20 Tips For How to Cut Out Sugar From Medical Experts.

Slide 8 of 11: Believe it or not, there's something to be said for being a creature of habit and eating the same foods day in and day out, especially if you're on a mission to shed some weight. According to a study that appeared in the journal PLOS One, researchers looked at the diets of 6,814 people and found that the more diverse one's diet, the more likely one was to experience weight gain. In fact, those who ate the widest range of foods showed a 120 percent greater increase in waist circumference compared with those who had the least diversity. If you're not sure what foods are best to rely on every day, a good starting point is to take a look at the 40 Foods Nutrition Experts Told Us You Should Be Eating Every Day.

Slide 7 of 11: It takes twenty minutes for your stomach to tell your brain that it's had enough, so if you eat slowly chances are you will consume less and see your belly shrink. A study in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association found slow eaters took in 66 fewer calories per meal, but compared to their fast-eating peers, they felt like they had eaten more. Though 66 calories might not sound like much, cutting that amount out of every meal adds up to a weight loss of more than twenty pounds a year! A simple trick to slow your pace: Place your fork down on the plate after each bite.

Slide 6 of 11: It's our The #1 Thing You Can Do Every Day to Lose Weight for a reason. While having a scale in the house isn't right for everyone, research has shown that it can help encourage weight loss by providing a level of accountability. In fact, an impressive 75 percent of people enrolled in the NWCR revealed they weigh themselves at least once a week. Need more proof it's worth getting a scale? When Cornell University researchers observed dieters who weighed themselves daily, they discovered that the routine of stepping on a scale helped those people lose more weight than those who weighed themselves less frequently. To avoid being thrown off by natural fluctuations in body weight, try stepping onto the scale the same time every day.

Slide 4 of 11: 62 percent of people enrolled in the NWCR reported they watch less than ten hours of TV per week, and there's research to support the fact that cutting the amount of time you spend in front of the small screen can be beneficial for your waistline. In fact, a University of Vermont study found that overweight participants who reduced their TV time by just 50 percent burned an additional 119 calories a day on average. Though that might not sound like much, it adds up to an impressive twelve-pound annual loss! Maximize those results by multitasking while you watch. Even light household tasks will further bump up your caloric burn, and it's better to keep your hands busy with dishes or laundry as opposed to calorie-packed snacks.STAY INFORMED: Sign up for our daily newsletter to get the latest food news delivered straight to your inbox.
