Many people think losing weight is difficult. Actually, as long as you find the right methods, you can easily shed those extra pounds! Here are 11 quick weight loss tips to help you achieve your goal.
Method 1: Save dinner for breakfast.
This is a self-deception method I've tried myself and found very effective. You see, your "psychological state" at night is completely different from your "psychological state" in the morning. We can use this difference to lose weight. I mentioned this method in my post "Losing 17kg: My Psychological Battle with Myself"—back then, I still ate out for dinner every day, but I would take the whole meal out and freeze it for the next morning. The advantage of this method is that when you see this large dinner but can't eat it, you won't feel too helpless. You can tell yourself, "I'll still eat this, just this time I'll save it for the next morning!" Interestingly, the next morning, you'll find you're not hungry. Even after taking the food out of the freezer and microwaving it, it doesn't taste as good. Since your appetite is already limited in the morning, if you can't finish this large dinner at breakfast, throw it away immediately. Don't feel bad about it; you've succeeded for the first day. Then, repeat the same "save for the next day's breakfast" action that evening.
Method two: Drink lots and lots of water:
If you don't want to skip dinner, there are other methods. For example, convenience stores sell "diet meals" that make you feel full. However, according to a study on a medical website, the real "food to trick" yourself into eating is water! Water has no taste, doesn't stimulate appetite, and instead keeps your stomach feeling full for a long time. Experts point out that the body often mistakenly includes thirst as part of the feeling of hunger. Therefore, it's recommended to drink plenty of plain water, especially before meals, and you'll find that the feeling of hunger is reduced by more than half! Amazing, right? In addition, most office workers don't drink enough water. I've seen some former colleagues who didn't even bring a water bottle to work; their desks were empty except for a teacup, and they relied on a cup of hot tea to get through the day. In fact, drinking more water, especially large amounts, not only accelerates metabolism but also "tricks" office workers into frequently going to the toilet and exercising more.
Method 3: When dieting, consistently do "the same thing":
When you're dieting and it's painful, remember that you absolutely cannot do your usual things during this time. For example, if you're an office worker and have to eat only fruit for lunch, and the aroma of meat soup noodles keeps wafting over from next door, what do you do? What do you do? At this time, you can start going online, learning a few Japanese phrases, and memorizing a few English words. From now on, whenever you have to eat less and feel the pain, remember to quickly learn a few Japanese phrases and memorize a few English words. This method can cleverly transform the emptiness of not eating into a real sense of "achievement." Although the sense of achievement can't be "eaten," that kind of joy is enough to barely offset the emptiness of not eating!
Method four: Believe that you have already successfully lost weight:
Benson points out that page 72 of the Chinese version of "The Secret Secret" mentions several things you must understand before trying to lose weight. The book says, first, you must eliminate the thought of losing weight from your mind. It says that this is precisely why dieting fails! The book points out that when you are overweight, it's because of your "thoughts"—you don't have the "thought of being thin," but rather the "thought of being fat," which leads to even more severe obesity. The book outlines three steps: ask, believe, and accept. Use your imagination to imagine that you feel so good that you are actually "light as a feather," and believe that you have succeeded. In this way, you can do what thin people do, and ultimately become a truly handsome, thin person.
Method 5: Continue to eat your favorite food every day, but only a small piece:
Overweight people are probably in this state because they love snacks and high-calorie foods, right? So, when people think about losing weight, the first thing they think of is "cutting out these foods." However, this often leads to a drop in mood, causing initial distress and hindering weight loss. Therefore, a medical website article practically introduced a "self-deception method": "Still allow yourself to eat your favorite foods, and you can eat them every day. However, each time you eat only "a little bit." An even more effective way to deceive yourself is not to buy whole bags at once, but only small bags, so you have to go to the store to buy more each time you want to eat them.
