If you are overweight and want to lose weight, you probably want to succeed quickly. It is much more encouraging and motivating to be able to lose weight within a few short months rather than over many years. Also, you may not necessarily have all the time in the world to support your fat loss goals. Most of the fat loss plans recommend you a diet which literally takes hours to prepare - that is ridiculous. The following are some tips which aim to help you lose weight with the minimal amount of effort and time!

Regular exercising is always recommended if you want to get fit and lose weight. However, sometimes when you are very overweight, you need not necessarily achieve your desired results with normal exercises. You must have definitely seen people jogging on the treadmill for hours each week but still fail to lose any visible weight at all!

When this is also the case with you, then maybe you should try short-burst exercises. These type of exercises are not as special as you may think it is initially. They are probably the same exercises you have been performing. The main difference is that you should significantly reduce the amount of time you take to complete each set of these exercises. Also, the amount of rest time in between sets should be reduced to a bare minimum. When you do this, your heart rate will be increased beyond its normal levels in the past, and subsequently your metabolic rate will be raised. This will help you burn off more calories and fats even when you are at rest, and thus make fat loss an easier process for you!

Although exercises are important for losing weight, a great diet is even more so the case! If you have been drinking soda, taking French fries and consuming lots of alcohol as your current diet, it is time to change to taking more whole and nutritious foods. This is more so the case if you want visible and quick results. Whole foods include foods such as fresh fruits, vegetables, sweet potatoes and basically all other such foods which are not processed.

Next, you should always drink lots of water to keep yourself hydrated. Another great thing about drinking lots of water is that most people mistake the feeling of thirst for hunger and end up over eating. By drinking more water constantly, you will lower the chances of you over eating and gaining weight!
