Are you struggling to lose weight? If so, you are not alone. Many people are unclear about what they should do to lose weight. Our everyday routines play an important part in weight loss, although they are generally overlooked. Raj Ganpath, a fitness and nutrition instructor, routinely offers helpful tips on health and weight loss with his Instagram followers. In his most recent piece, he shared a basic daily practice to help with fitness, health, and weight loss.
In one of his post, he says, “Forget fat burners, diets, and supplements. Instead, follow this simple daily routine for the next few weeks, and I guarantee you will lose weight, improve your health, and boost your fitness.”
Let’s look at the 13-step routine that a fitness and nutrition instructor presented.
Morning routine: Start your day right
1. Wake up and start your day feeling refreshed.
2. Before reaching for your coffee or tea, drink 250 ml of water to hydrate your body and kickstart your metabolism.
3. Engage in 30 to 60 minutes of physical activity—whether it’s a gym session, yoga, a brisk walk, or any workout that keeps you moving.
4. Breakfast: Fuel your body with a balanced meal of protein and fruit to keep you full and energized for the day ahead.
5. Start your workday, but don’t forget to hydrate! Drink 500 ml of water and get 2,000 steps in before lunch.
Daytime routine: Stay active and nourished
6. Lunch: Have a wholesome meal including protein, vegetables, and starch to keep you satisfied and provide sustained energy.
7. Continue working, and make sure to drink another 500 ml of water while squeezing in 2,000 steps before 6 PM.
8. In the evening, go for a 30-minute outdoor walk to unwind, breathe fresh air, and help with digestion.
9. Unwind and relax. Whether it’s doing chores, spending time with family, or simply chilling with a book or music, make space for downtime.
Night routine: Prepare for rest and recovery
10. Dinner: End your day with another well-balanced meal of protein, vegetables, and starch.
11. Take some calm time before bed—meditate, practice deep breathing, or do something that relaxes your mind.
