So here are your tips to lose weight fast.

1. Go Organic & Up fruit & Vegetable Intake

Switch your shopping to buying organic ingredients and up your fruit and vegetable intake.

2. Drinks

Cut down or eliminate alcohol, fizzy drinks and caffeine. Switch to Green tea loaded with antioxidants and make sure you get plenty of fresh water; 2 liters a day.

Water is will flush out your system and is known to help speed up the fat burning process. Also as many hunger pangs we get are thirst pangs; this will keep appetite in check.

3. Eliminate processed foods

Such as burgers and Pizzas and get more good carbohydrates such as oats, brown rice and jacket potatoes to ensure that your blood sugar levels are kept even and you have plenty of energy.

4. Get good fats

We all need good fats; their vital to our health and vitality. They will protect against illness, supports the immune system, make your skin, hair and nails look better.

The best way to get them is from oily fish such as mackerel, salmon, sardines, herrings and olive oil.
Make Sure you get 3 - 5 servings a week and take a fish oil capsule daily.

5. Up your intake of lean protein

Lean protein provides an immediate satiety factor - it keeps you full for longer periods. It also prevents insulin spikes that lead to energy falls and sugar cravings. It maintains muscle mass which is crucial in the fat burning process.

At least 20 - 30% of daily calories should be lean protein; get it by eating:

Cottage cheese, low fat yogurt, skimmed milk, egg whites, fish, shrimp prawns, skinless chicken, turkey, beef, lentils, fish, kidney beans, tofu and soy products.

6. Eat fiber

This keeps food moving through your bowel. Just like water, fiber rich foods bulk you up and make you feel full.

The average person could lose around 10 pounds per year just by doubling their fiber intake. The average person consumes about 8g per day; this should be increased to 25g per day.

It's found only in plant foods and our bodies are unable to digest it, so it's simply eliminated.
In the process it cuts calories by attaching to some of the protein and fat that you eat along the way; eliminating that as well.

Finally, fiber rich foods are normally low in calories and filling so eating more of them means you're eating fewer calories and consuming fewer calories from other foods.

Start your day with a high fiber cereal and keep eating fiber throughout the day.

Good choices include: strawberries, apples, figs, and chickpeas, potatoes with skins, broccoli, brown rice, beans, and nuts.

7. Eat regularly

Eat breakfast so that you don't suffer hunger pangs later in the day. Your body has been without food for 8
to 10 hours, so fuel it and set yourself up for the day.

8. Portion Control

Make sure your aware of portion control. With your 3 main meals; to get the portion size of brown rice, you can have as example, clench you fist and that's the amount you can have; same with vegetables and protein consumed.
