Those who struggle to lose weight have heard the same advice again and again to shed the pounds: eat right and exercise. While this advice is sound and effective, it can sometimes be much more difficult than it sounds. There can potentially be factors that interfere with the effectiveness of those two suggestions - things like family history or medication. Listed below are some unusual and uncommonly mentioned ways to help you lose weight and keep it off.
Use A Smaller Blue Plate
This is an interesting suggestion that actually has a lot of basis in scientific findings. There are certain colors that promote feelings of hunger. Colors like red and yellow are often used for fast food logos for this very reason. But using the color blue around the food you eat will help you get full faster. Using a plate that's smaller will help aid in portion control. When we use bigger plates, we are naturally inclined to pile more food onto them.
Sit In The Sauna
Sweating doesn't always have to come from physical exertion. Just sitting in a steam room can potentially burn a large amount of calories - especially if you frequent a sauna on a continual basis. This may serve as a good extra bit of sweating on top of the work out you already do, or a way to burn calories if too much rigorous movement is simply just not your thing.
Take Vitamins
Many people hold on to fat and unnecessary weight because they lack the proper minerals and vitamins that the body needs for optimal functioning. There are quite a few vitamins that have been known to help shed pounds. Omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B-12 and calcium are all vitamins that have been linked to weight loss. Sometimes those extra five or 10 pounds are holding on because our body doesnt have the right level of nutrients.
Sleep In A Cold Room
Oddly enough, when we sleep in a properly ventilated, cool room it actually promotes deeper sleep which helps regulate our metabolism and burns more calories, then when we have fretful, warm sleep. Those who are sleep deprived are more likely to struggle with losing weight and often retain weight. Deep sleep promotes rest, which promotes the internal functioning of the body to work as it should. This includes being able to shed those extra pounds.
Breathe
This is a great tactic to not only improve your lungs and the level of oxygen you obtain, but also one that promotes your metabolism functioning as it should and was designed to. There is a very specific pattern of deep breathing that promotes the shedding of pounds. Inhale through the nose and count to four, hold for a count of seven and then exhale slowly through the mouth for a count of eight. Repeat four times.
