The best way to lose weight is to understand your body type because this is key to finding the right diet and exercise plan that will work for you. It is important to know which diet can help you make the most of your body shape because losing weight is not one size fit all. There are three main body types – Pear, Apple and Chili pepper.

Pear
This body type has a larger lower body- more fat load in the thighs, hips and butt and smaller upper body. A pear body type has the biggest challenge losing weight because it is believed that butt and thigh fat (passive fat) are the hardest to lose as they are designed to give women a steady supply of energy during breastfeeding and childbirth. Cellulite also affects the thighs and hip because it creates a network of fibrous tissues which makes it hard for blood supply to reach the fat deposits.

The best way for this body type to lose weight is by watching their fat intake. A diet rich in complex carbohydrate such as whole grains cereals, beans, lean proteins such fish, chicken, fruits and vegetables is advised because it will help to burn off excess fat. Exercise is also great way to slim down the thighs and hips. Aerobic activities such as running, cycling help to trim the excess pounds on the lower part of the body.
