Before moving to how can you lose weight, let’s simply summarize a few points as to what causes weight gain-

• Eating fatty and processed foods
• Heredity
• Hormonal imbalances such as hypothyroidism, cysts
• Complete lack of exercise
• Consuming sugary foods frequently

If you are facing hormonal issues, then it is highly recommended that you consult a doctor, but if you aren’t, then for shedding those few inches from the waist, you have to maintain a schedule of a good diet along with a workout session. Even though you work out and burn those calories, it is very important that you don’t consume those wrong calories and gain back or more of what you burnt in the day. So start eating healthy and let’s work out what can help you in that case-

• Green Tea

This is one of the best metabolism boosters and helps in losing weight. See, the concept is really simple. If what we eat doesn’t get digested properly and if we suffer from constipation, then bloating occurs in the body causing the calories to accumulate and as a result, weight gain happens. So for extra aid in burning those extra calories, green tea is a good choice. But do ensure that you have it in the morning or afternoon as having green tea in the evening or night can interfere with the sleeping schedule.

• GarciniaCambogia

This is basically a fruit that is majorly found in Western Ghats in India and is also imported from Indonesia and few other South East Asian countries. This fruit became popular after America’sDr.Oz portrayed it as a breakthrough in medical science for losing weight organically. Since then, there has been an exponential rise and fanatism amongst people for this fruit. It follows a simple mechanism that it helps in preventing a person from eating extraneous food and inside cuts off the layer of fat in the body. That’s why, it is always recommended after meals. Also it is advantageous that one takes capsules of this fruit that contain 60% extract for effective results.

• Pulses

These would seem very commonplace, but pulses can be very effective if you want to lose a substantial amount of weight. Let’s see how this really works. So pulses contain high amount of protein which increases the feeling of fullness in the mind and helps a person stay fuller for long. In the meantime, our body produces big amount of energy to digest those proteins that in turn helps in losing weight. Also, it is recommended by gym trainers that a healthy adult should consume proteins (in grams) equivalent to the person weight in kilograms.

• Black coffee

So, this one is a tough call if you can take it or not. If you want your weight loss process to be escalated to sky rocket speeds, black coffee is just not an option to ignore. It contains certain compounds such as chlorogenic acid and caffeine that increase the metabolic rate of the body and prevent the creation of new fat cells in the body if taken after meals. Also, black coffee is known for suppressing hunger and contains lots of anti-oxidants that help in effective weight loss. But since excess of everything is harmful, excess of black coffee can cause hypertension so two cups are advisable throughout the day.

These are some of the most effective and natural ways to lose weight fast and organically if you can’t work out much and don’t have a fixed schedule for it. Simply include at least two of the above listed in your daily routine and you will discover a slimmer and toned you in sometime!
