Common conclusions

Based on your answers, there are several other ways that can help you lose weight. Losing weight does not have to be a difficult task. For starters, you can reduce portions by 10 to 20 percent, for example, by using smaller plates from which you eat. It is important to eat regular meals, because it will help you burn calories faster and will not tempt you to snack in between. You can also add low-fat proteins to every meal. That way, you'll stay full for a long time and you probably won't overeat. Try to use the low-fat version of products such as salad dressings or dairy products.

Based on your answers, you know a lot about how to lose weight. It is very important not to skip your breakfast, because it is very likely that you will feel increased hunger and desire for snacks during the day. It is recommended to eat small, frequent meals, every 3 to 4 hours, which enables a stable blood sugar level and reduces the chances of overeating. Drink plenty of water, because people sometimes eat when they are actually just thirsty. Excess calories often cannot be lost by diet alone. You need to start exercising regularly, which is the key to losing weight and maintaining a healthy weight.
