You must avoid certain foods which are very high in calories and devoid of any vitamins or nutrients. Fast foods such as pizzas, burgers, high sugar foods like cakes, pastries and cookies, aerated drinks, alcoholic drinks, processed foods, all fall under this category. These foods should be avoided, if you are serious about your weight loss goals.


Count Your Calorie Intake
The excess calorie that we take in everyday is what deposit fat in our body. Suppose we take 1500 calories in a day and burn only 1000 calories, the excess calories get deposited in our body for contingencies. Keep a check on your calorie intake and burn more calories than you consume.


Include Fiber-rich Foods in the Diet
We MUST include lots of fiber-rich foods in your diet. Fiber foods keep the body full for a very long time. This means that if you eat them in a meal, you will tend to eat less in your next meal. Moreover, fiber foods aid in removal of wastes from the body, which otherwise accumulate as fats. Thus, one of the best ways to lose weight is to eat high-fiber foods such as beans, strawberries, oranges, prunes, peas, spinach, cabbage, carrots, apples, bananas, broccoli and sweet corn, amongst others.


Drink Lots of Water
Drink between 3 - 5 liters of water everyday. Water aids in digestion, removes wastes from the body, is known to suppress hunger pangs and keeps all the important organs of the body including the liver. Drink warm water, instead of water at room temperature, throughout the day. This is known to keep accumulation of wastes and fats in the body in check.
