 But you know what, today we’ll share with you the natural weight loss Mantras that you can do anywhere, anytime so that by the time this isolation routine ends and all the gym opens you’ve already shredded pounds and will start looking different! (and maybe hot as well!)

The 7 Mantras:

1. Intermittent Fasting (IF)

Intermittent Fasting is an eating pattern that cycles between periods of fasting and eating. There are a few different ways to do intermittent fasting, including the 5:2 diet, the 16:8 method, and the eat-stop-eat method.

Generally, these methods make you eat fewer calories overall, without having to consciously restrict calories during the eating periods. This should lead to weight loss, as well as numerous other health benefits. It is the best-suited way of losing weight particularly during this period of time because you definitely must be missing your breakfast because you oversleep!

2. Staying hydrated

Water is the best fluid that a person can drink throughout the day. It contains no calories and provides a wealth of health benefits. When a person drinks water throughout the day, the water helps increase their metabolism. Drinking water before a meal can also help reduce the amount that they eat.

Finally, if people replace sugary beverages with water, this will help reduce the total number of calories that they consume throughout the day.

Drinking 0.5 liters of water may increase the calories you burn by 24–30% for an hour afterward. Drinking water before meals may also lead to reduced calorie intake, especially for middle-aged and older people.

Water is particularly good for weight loss when it replaces other beverages that are high in calories and sugar.

3. Eating more protein

A diet high in protein can help a person lose weight. An overview of existing research on high-protein diets concluded that they are a successful strategy for preventing or treating obesity.

Collectively, the data showed that higher-protein diets of 25–30 grams of protein per meal provided improvements in appetite, body weight management, cardiometabolic risk factors, or all of these health outcomes.

A person should eat more eggs, chicken, fish, lean meats, and beans. These foods are all high in protein and relatively low in fat. Lean proteins include:

  • fish
  • beans, peas, and lentils
  • white poultry
  • low-fat cottage cheese
  • tofu

4. Start doing Cardio.

Doing cardio, whether it is jogging, running, cycling, power walking or hiking is a great way to burn calories and improve both mental and physical health.

Cardio has been shown to improve many risk factors for heart disease. It can also help reduce body weight.

Cardio seems to be particularly effective at reducing the dangerous belly fat that builds up around your organs and causes metabolic disease

5. Get Enough sleep

 Tell you what? This was the only exercise you were definitely doing out of this list! Who would’ve thought losing weight could be so easy!

Getting enough sleep is incredibly important for weight loss, as well as to prevent future weight gain.

Sleep-deprived people are more likely to become obese, compared to those who get enough sleep. This number is even higher for children.

This is partly because sleep deprivation disrupts the daily fluctuations in appetite hormones, leading to poor appetite regulation

6. Brush your teeth after meal

Many people brush or floss their teeth after eating, which may help limit the desire to snack or eat between meals.

This is because many people do not feel like eating after brushing their teeth. Plus, it can make food taste bad.

Therefore, if you brush or use mouthwash after eating, you may be less tempted to grab an unnecessary snack.

7. Green tea

Green tea is acknowledged as a miracle and an herbal remedy to reduce weight. It is also known to burn fat naturally. It’s an antioxidant and consuming 2-3 cups of it every day not only boosts metabolism but also burns and flushes out fat from the body.

This is why green tea is one of the most popular home remedies for weight loss in 2 weeks, and that too without any physical workouts. You can start consuming green tea by replacing your daily coffee and tea with it.

Conclusion (Natural Weight Loss)

Individuals looking to lose weight naturally should focus on making perpetual lifestyle changes rather than accepting temporary procedures. It is vibrant for people to emphasize on making changes that they can uphold. In some cases, a person may prefer to implement changes gradually or try introducing one at a time.

There you go! Now, you can naturally and safely continue to implement these simple natural Mantras in your lifestyle and start to feel the positive change in your body and routine. By the time this pandemic ends you will be fit as ever!
