Some wise words of advice regarding fitness and the best ways to lose weight:

1) Don't diet! Change your lifestyle. Do things that you know you can incorporate into your lifestyle. Do small things consistently rather than one massive effort for a few weeks.
2) Set realistic goals, visualize what you want to accomplish and by when.
3) Understand that most of the battle is going to be fought between your ears.
4) Adequate rest and sleep is crucial to replenish supplies and invigorate metabolism.
5) You have to reduce your stress levels! Practice meditation or yoga to keep a clear mind for your work & personal life.
6) Eat more often! Eat more meals a day, but eat smaller healthier portions.
7) Don't do Fad Diets (Fasting diets, crash diets etc.) They just slow down your metabolism!
