Yes, it really is that simple. But if you're still not convinced, then feel free to read some of our weight loss articles located in the sidebar or some of the tips/techniques below. Once you're finished reading our advice on how to tone up below, you'll see how easy the process really is
Start Now -
This is probably one of the best advice you're ever going to get. Don't tell yourself that you'll start tomorrow, you know you won't. Go outside for a twenty-minute walk as soon as you finish reading this sentence. Now. Go.
Drink Water - Drink one or two glasses of water before meals, this will make you feel more full and so you won't eat so much. Drinking water is also generally quite healthy, so you'd be doing yourself two favors by keeping yourself hydrated throughout the day.
Set Clear Goals - Don't just say you're going to "get skinny", rather set clear and specific dates of when you need to achieve your goal. Make a bet with a friend or family member that you will lose xx pounds by a certain date and that you will pay him $100 if you don't. Working out will suddenly seem a lot easier to you.
Eat Breakfast - Skipping breakfast will actually make you fatter since you'll be even hungrier by lunchtime. Make sure you eat a good breakfast everyday.
Exercise - Exercising regularly is one of the easiest methods mentioned so far. Don't push yourself too hard though. Start off slowly (walking 20 minutes per day) then slowly increase the amount of exercise you do as you become more fit.
Diet - Going on a crash diet won't help you much in the long run, but a good diet definitely will. Research the various weight loss diets available online and once you find one that you like just stick to it.
Eat Less - You don't need to deprive yourself of all the foods you like if you want to burn some fat, but cutting down will significantly help you lose a few pounds quite easily.
Avoid Junk Food - Junk food the number one cause of obesity. Substitute harmful junks foods such as chips and cookies with healthier alternatives like carrot sticks and peanuts.
