Lose weight without a diet: With these 5 tricks you lose excess kilos
Losing weight without diet and exercise probably sounds like a dream to many. But with five tips you can easily lose weight.
Kassel – Losing weight could be so easy! If only you didn't have to watch what you eat all the time. And if it weren't so important to do sports for it. But losing weight can also work without a diet and even covering kilometers on the treadmill is not absolutely necessary, as the magazine Fit for fun reports.
Tips for losing weight: Calorie traps lurk on the sofa
Tip 1: The first trap lurks almost everywhere after work on the sofa at home: Sweets and snacks are usually ready to hand. There is a simple solution to this: sweets should be stored in places where they are not immediately visible. Replacing them with healthy alternatives such as nuts, fruits and vegetables can also help to save calories.
Tip 2: The second pitfall when losing weight is the size of the portions: Large portions – for example your favorite brand of chips – usually cost less than small portions. But once opened, they are empty almost as quickly. This was found by researchers from the Universities of California and New Mexico in the USA in a study published in the journal Nutrition Research . Larger portions led to an average 22 percent increase in calorie intake. So if you can't do without sweets and snacks, you should limit yourself to small doors.

Tip 3 : However, it is not only important to do without when losing weight: sometimes it is okay to treat yourself as long as you eat small portions. There is also a tip for this: you should try to use smaller plates. In this way, you can fool your brain into thinking that you have eaten more than you actually have and also eat fewer calories. Nevertheless, a healthy diet is of course important.
Tip 4: It is also important to pay attention to healthy food: There are foods that are generally considered healthy, but have significantly more calories than alternatives . Although nuts are generally considered to be very healthy, they are high in calories - as are dried fruits, which are often real sugar bombs and are found in healthy mueslis. In order to lose weight without dieting, you should pay more attention to hidden calories in healthy foods.
Lose weight without a diet: Relaxation instead of Rock'n Roll
Tip 5: Relaxation is also important: Researchers at the University of Aarhus in Denmark were able to prove in a study that particularly loud and fast music causes us to increase our calorie intake. So that weight loss without a diet is successful, calm and relaxing music can help. The same applies to a meal together with family or friends.
The reason is that when you're distracted, you pay less attention to how full you feel. Therefore, one should try to control one's food, even in company, and to chew slowly and extensively. There are also foods that can help you lose weight. (con)
