1. Eat More Protein
Many times, in our modern microwave world, people eat a lot, but they simply do not get the right amount of protein in their diet. This does not mean that you need to go all the way over to the dark side and start hunting for meat on the hoof in your local park. But it does mean that your health and weight could improve if you simply added some healthy protein into your diet
Try something easy and that is available everywhere like tuna fish. This tried and true staple of American homes is a great source of lean protein, especially if you get the kind that is packed in water. True enough, if you decide you are going to live on this as your sole source of nutrition you might have a few other issues. But for the most part, if you eat tuna for one of your meals every other day or so, your body will thank you for letting go of all those extra pounds it was carrying around for you.
2. Lift More Weight
Lifting weights are one of those exercise ideas that is often misunderstood. For some reason, the thought of lifting weights brings to mind pictures of enormous biceps, popping out with veins all over. Truth is, lifting weights; even light weights can be a great idea for someone who wants to lose some weight fast.
To start with, you really only need a couple of very light weights. Something in the 3 or 5-pound range. And you only need to do a few repetitions of any exercise. It is perfectly OK to start with a simple exercise like a curl. This is where you pick up the weight and bend your arm at the elbow so that you move the weight up towards your shoulder. Then move it back down.
You can do this standing or sitting, and to start with just do a few repetitions with each arm, no more than 5 or 10 times. That’s it. You don’t want to be sore, you just want to help your body burn some fat and get healthier.
