Give me your one random weight loss tip!

My sister in law thinks that getting drunk results in being thinner in the morning. I have not scientifically tested this.

For me, it's put curly wurlies in the fridge then have one slowly with a cup of tea for a 'treat'.

Christ, I wish...

Eat 800g of vegetables a day, you won't have room for anything else.

No breakfast.
Lunch super early and healthy.
Dinner 5 pm with the kids. That's the last food of the day.
I watch my shows at night while walking on the treadmill instead of sitting down and snacking.
Keeping food between 10 and 5 on weekdays means I can have chocolate everyday and a serious binge on weekends and still lose weight.

Invest in a ddog! Lots of walking of mileage there...

Eat the right food for your blood group. The weight falls off and stays off. It's been 3 years since I adopted this approach. I dropped to my ideal weight and have remained at that weight. Ideally if I added exercise I could lose more but I am content right now.

How do you find out what that is? The right foods, I mean

Just Google blood group diet for your blood type and the list of beneficial foods is there. I am blood group O. Legumes are not good for my blood type. I used to eat loads of beans and peas prior to this diet which explains why I never lost weight.

Ah, of course...

1, only eat at meal times and nothing before 7am or after 7pm, 12 hour fast as a minimum
2, half your plate should be vegetables or sometimes fruit
3, don't eat any sugar ( or only a tiny tiny amount) apart from what is naturally in the raw fruit, veg or milk this boils down to no sweets, cakes, puddings, biscuits or sugary cereals

Eat real food 2 or 3 times a day without snacking, & remove quarter of your portion from the plate before you start eating

What’s macros?

My tip is beans on toast for lunch with a poached egg

you’re not hungry again - small dinner, bed.

Just looked at the Harvard article on blood group diets and it said nothing has been proven and the is no real research to back this up.

I've heard that dysentery has a bit of a name for quick weight loss, just don't stray to far from the bathroom...

If you retain water put dandelion drops in your glass of water and feel less bloated. Be running to the loo so only if at home. But in health food shop.

@DeedlessIndeed I am like that too.

Also don't overthink it. I get hungry as I start thinking about food. Find something else to think about - I use crosswords, reading, going to the gym, walking, working. Choose something that requires brain power.

Brushing your teeth instead of reaching for a snack. The mintier the better !

After dinner, brush your teeth and get into your pjs. Helps to stop snacking and when you're tired, you're ready to get into bed instead of thinking of snacking or staying up later and then getting more tired the next day.

This! Definitely true for me.

I second this

I'm not overweight, but if I want to 'trim up' a little, I just skip breakfast for 4 or 5 days.

Just treat every day as Day 1.

See if I did this I would have eaten 37 packets of crisps and a crème egg before the oven had heated up.

Mine is have a lot of food than can be ready very quickly

Cook ready meals that can microwave
Frozen mash and rice packets ditto
Veg that can be steamed

Air fryer very useful

And never be without eggs

I agree. Eat between 12-8 only as well.

It’s not really random but I go for a walk every evening. Dh cooks while go for a walk. He likes cooking and I like exercise and fresh air, I listen to a podcast and I really look forward to it. Keeps me active especially on days I’ve been wfh and not even managed to get in a lunchtime walk.
usually go for about an hour but can be shorter or longer depending on what’s going on.
