1. If you're trying to lose weight, just working out isn't enough you need to pay attention to your nutrition as well. Incorporate plenty of fruits and vegetables, low-fat dairy products, whole grains and lean protein sources in your diet.
2. Burning calories is never easy. Skip the aerated drinks and calorie laden sodas and opt for water instead.
3. Grill vegetables instead of steaming them. And experiment with different herbs and spices to season food instead of using lots of oil or ghee.
4. If you're eating out, ask for the foods to be prepared as light as possible.
5. Physical activity is essential, so make it a habit to include at least 30 minutes of cardio daily. Jogging, running, cycling, swimming or playing a sport are all ideal choices.
6. Yoga is another excellent option for those trying to get into shape.
