Tips for losing weight

A methodology to an effective weight loss would involve a perfect diet consisting of low calories and increasing physical activity. The only proven safe method is to burn much more calories than you consume. You could achieve this by either reducing the calorie intake or increasing the energy expenditure.

One pound of fat roughly contains 3,500 calories and hence person should consume about 3,500 fewer calories per week or by reducing the daily intake by 500 calories per day. If this seems impossible, physical activity could be another approach as it contributes significantly to weight loss. Combining both these strategies is the perfect solution to a weight loss regime.
