20 easy ways to lose ways weight naturally

Losing weight is big business right now and there’s so much information and products out there that starting your weight loss journey can seem intimidating. Supplements, weight loss plans, exercise equipment, fat burning treatments, fad diets… the list goes on!

I believe in keeping things simple, at least to begin with, which is why I endorse a more holistic way of losing weight. This means moving your body regularly, eating natural, whole foods and following a toxic and chemical-free lifestyle.

Once you’ve mastered the basics of healthy, holistic living, you can look into other, more sexy weight loss trends. But for now, here are 20 very simple and natural ways to lose weight:

We need protein for all aspects of our health — it’s a no-brainer. A diet rich in protein is key to losing weight and maintaining good health, skin, hair and nails. In fact, a diet high in protein can help boost metabolism by up to 100 calories per day. This is because our body naturally burns more calories when it has to digest protein.

Foods that are rich in protein are also incredibly filling, which can help suppress appetite and stop you from snacking in between meals. Start your day with a breakfast rich in protein, like scrambled eggs, with a decent amount of healthy fats and you’ll be full and happy for hours.

The term ‘whole foods’ is thrown around a lot in the health world, but what does it really mean? Whole foods are food that contains a single ingredient (no added sugars, preservatives, etc), and are completely natural and unprocessed.

By eliminating other, filler ingredients from your food you can enjoy its full health benefits without the side effects of added fats, sugars, etc. Examples of whole foods that will keep you full and keep the weight off include fresh vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds and legumes.

Do a quick inventory of your fridge and kitchen cupboard. If you find that it’s stocked with sweets, junk and processed food, chances are it will be difficult for you to resist the urge to snack on them. In fact, studies show that the food in your home will affect your weight and eating behaviour.

By eliminating the junk food you are also eliminating the chances of you bingeing or eating unhealthy food. I find that keeping pre-made snacks ready in my fridge and bag prevent me from wanting to eat something sugary or unhealthy. Stock your fridge and cupboards with filling, unprocessed snacks like fruits, keto granola, keto chocolate, organic coconut yoghurt, homemade bone broth, fresh veggies, nuts and hard-boiled eggs.

Did you know that drinking just half a litre of water could help your body burn more calories by up to 30%? Drinking enough water is a no-brainer but not everyone follows this rule. There are so many health benefits of consuming water and it can help aid weight loss by curbing cravings and keeping you full.

In fact, sometimes, we can mistake hunger for thirst. Next time you get a pang of hunger, try drinking a glass of water and see if that helps. Try drinking a glass of water half an hour before your meal and you’ll find that you’ll end up consuming fewer calories.

Swap your sugary lattes for a bulletproof coffee to help you keep the weight off. Coffee is loaded with antioxidants and can help aid weight loss by burning more calories and giving you energy. It’s also known to boost metabolism and contains no calories.

Next time you need a caffeine fix try drinking a cup of black, unsweetened coffee, topped up with healthy fats such as MTC -oil, or virgin coconut oil.

My favourite chemical-free coffee-brand is the original Bullet-proof coffee by Dave Asprey.

(Note: protect your teeth from staining by drinking black coffee with a straw and also coffee is not good for everyone. There is a lot of debate about whether coffee is healthy or not. Never drink more than one a day and coffee is a no go on an anti-inflammation diet)
