There are many ways to burn calories fast but to truly lose some serious weight you need to reduce anywhere between 500 to 1,000 calories per day. Here are a couple of tips to get you down this track.
Adequate sleep saves around 1,000 calories
Getting adequate sleep does not only mean you will wake up feeling refreshed but also cuts down on the number of hours you are awake and eating. Furthermore, a recent study by the University of Chicago shows that individual who only slept 5 1/2 hours daily ate more when they woke up.
Not eating in front of the TV saves around 714 calories
You've heard it before. Don't eat in front of the TV as it makes you eat more. A recent study by the University of Massachusetts showed an extra 238 calories consumed if eating in front of the idiot box. Take this figure and multiply by the three meals a day and it's a lot of calories!
Keeping your home clean saves around 500 calories
Keeping a clean home isn't just good for your health but also your waistline. Spending just two hours a day cleaning and sprucing up your abode burns approximately 500 calories.
Thin-crust vegetable pizza saves around 500 calories
Pizza in itself is a great treat so why not swap that meaty pan crust pizza for a thin-crust veggie alternative? It will still be delicious and you can save up to 500 calories without even knowing:
- Thin crust vegetable pizza is approximately 350 calories
- Pan crust meat-loaded pizza is approximately 850 calories
Keep that metabolism going
Even little things make a difference. Actions like tapping your feet, drumming your fingers while sitting at the computer and walking around the office while on your cellphone can burn up to 400 calories a day. While it may make you look a little agitated and stressed, you would in fact be improving your health.
