  1. Better eating Habits: watch what you put in your body will help you lose weight. But drinking more water before you eat and eating healthier foods altogether, is one of the best ways to cut down on body weight and stay healthy.
  2. Dieting: this is the extreme of better eating habits. Going on a diet can cut out excesses fats and allows you to eat “good” carbs, making you much healthier in the process. Ensure you are eating a proper nutritional balance for your body size.
  3. Drink more water: one easy way to help lose weight would be to cut out sugary drinks and replace them with water. Water suppresses your appetite, helps burn calories, and it is necessary to burn fat. 
  4. Start working out: going to the gym or starting to run or walk can help burn fat tremendously. Exercise is the best way to lose fat and gain muscle. Staying hydrated and eating healthier is very important too but exercising will show you serious progress. 
  5. Eat a small and healthy breakfast: this meal is one of the most unappreciated ways to help lose weight. Putting protein in your breakfast will help suppress your appetite and your body will use more energy to digest it.
