Wondering how to lose weight fast without cutting anything from your diet? Secretes unveiled!

Here are some effective ways to lose weight without cutting anything out of your diet.

1. Skip Dinner to Lose Weight Fast

How It Works: 

The reasoning here is that if you fast for 12 to 14 hours every night, then you’ll be ahead of the curve by default.

According to Dr. Ludwig, sleeping in an extended fast depletes liver glycogen (carbohydrates stored there) and kick-starts fatty acid mobilization. It primes the body to burn fat as fuel during daily activities rather than keep it.

Why It Works:

Your digestive system goes into a chill mode when you sleep because your body needs less energy to function.

“Fasting allows your gastrointestinal tract time to rest,” says Dr. Ludwig, “which encourages your gut bacteria to multiply and have a healthier balance.”

Eating food before bed will make you fat – always remember this!

2 . Go Vegan to Lose Weight Fast

How It Works: 

Dr. Ludwig refers to this as “strategic under-eating.” He recommends taking in no more than 1,500 calories per day if you want to lose weight quickly. Not something likely sustained for long periods.

If your calorie intake is so low that you’re regularly hungry, then chances are it’s too low for your body to function optimally.

On the other hand, Dr. Ludwig notes that people who follow a vegan diet tend to be skinnier overall. Even if they eat meat and dairy, there’s still a good chance their meals will contain fewer carbs.

There’s one caveat: Many vegans fall into the trap of loading up on too many starchy vegetables like potatoes and carrots. This can effectively cancel out the weight-loss benefits.

Why It Works: 

If you’re eating less than 1,500 calories per day, you need to eat more whole plant foods — such as fruits, vegetables, and legumes — while limiting refined carbs (including anything made with white flour).

That means snacking on nuts and seeds rather than pretzels and crackers. “A vegan diet is a great way of spontaneously reducing caloric intake,” says Dr. Ludwig — if you make sure to include plenty of filling fiber in your meals.

3. Drink Only Water to Lose Weight Fast

How It Works:

While cutting back on sugary beverages like soda will help lower your calorie intake, water may boost your metabolism.

According to researchers at Virginia Tech, drinking ice-cold water increases the amount of energy (calories) you burn — meaning that just by drinking water, you can lose weight.

And if plain old H 2 O doesn’t sound appetizing enough for you, then try adding some lemon or mint into the mix.

Why It Works: 

When it comes to weight loss, diet drinks are no better than sugary drinks because both increase cravings and hunger levels.

A study published in the journal Appetite found that people who drank diet beverages ate more food than those who drank regular soda — not precisely what you’d call a “healthy” substitute.

4. Go On a Low-carb Diet to Lose Weight Fast

How It Works: 

This might sound like an oxymoron, but eating carbohydrates can make you fat — and that’s even more true when those carbs come from sugary beverages.

If you’re already eating relatively clean, then cutting back on bread, pasta, potatoes, rice, fruit juices, and other high-GL foods will help rid your body of its dependence on carbs for energy.

Remember: Only half the calories in any carbohydrate come from the actual carb; the rest are all sugar. Because your body processes each gram of carbohydrate differently than it does protein or fat grams, focusing on reducing GL is a better way to slim down.

Why It Works:

Low-carb diets are the most effective way to shed pounds, especially around your belly. Low-carb dieters lost about an additional inch of body fat around their waistlines — without inducing hunger or suffering anxiety and depression due to calorie restriction.

5. Eat High-Protein Diets to Lose Weight Fast

How It Works:

Protein is more satiating than either carbs or fat, so adding more of it to your meals helps keep you fuller longer, which may lead you to eat less total food during the day.

Also, protein increases your metabolic rate by up to 30 percent, which can help with weight loss.

Finally, protein is more difficult for your body to digest than other nutrients, so the extra energy it requires may help you burn slightly more calories. 

A study in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggests that the thermic effect of food (the number of calories your body burns digesting what you eat) affects weight loss differently depending on which macronutrient makes up 25 percent of your total intake.

For example, people who ate diets with 30 percent protein lost 15 pounds over three months compared to just 5 pounds with 10 percent protein.

Why It Works:

Just like low-carb diets, high-protein diets are very effective at helping you lose weight — especially around your belly.

High-protein diets are more effective at reducing body fat, insulin levels, and heart disease risk factors than other weight-loss strategies.

6. Drink Green Tea to Lose Weight Fast

How It Works:

Green tea is rich in a catechin called epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which may stimulate thermogenesis, the body’s heat production, helping you burn more calories.

Studies have also shown that EGCG can boost exercise endurance by causing muscles to generate extra energy from fat stores, so sipping some green tea before an intense workout could help your performance.

Drinking just 2 cups per day may even accelerate your post-exercise calorie burn!

When you eat burns calories during digestion—but eating produces an additional calorie-burning effect called the “thermic effect of food,” for a total of 70 – 80 calories burned per meal.

Why It Works:

Drinking green tea causes your body to burn more calories, even at rest.

In a study published in the journal Clinical Nutrition, people who drank green tea containing a total of 690 milligrams of catechins increased their resting energy expenditure by 4 percent.

Talk about motivation to get moving!

7. Eat Probiotics to Lose Weight Fast

How It Works:

Gut health is vital for maintaining a healthy weight because poor digestion can slow down your metabolism and cause you to hold on to fat.

The good news? Eating certain foods may help keep your digestive system regular, leading to a faster metabolism.

Prebiotics are found in many plant foods, including artichokes, bananas, asparagus, beans, garlic, leeks, onions, and whole grains. Probiotics are primarily found in dairy products like yogurt and fermented foods such as kimchi, sauerkraut, kombucha tea, and miso soup.

Why It Works:

Gut health is an emerging field of medicine. There’s still much we don’t understand about how the bacteria that live inside us impact our weight.

Preliminary research suggests that certain beneficial gut microbes may help your body extract extra calories from food or stop your body from absorbing them altogether — meaning you’d excrete more of what you eat.

But the jury is still out on whether these benefits can be achieved from eating probiotic-rich foods or taking a supplement.
