But they ALL leave you hungry, deprived, and in many ways suffering.

And the majority of the time, you regain that weight after you stop using whatever extreme steps these fad diets instruct you to take.

It's preferable to reduce weight gradually if you want to keep the pounds off for good.

And, according to many experts, you can accomplish it without going on a "diet." The trick is to make little changes to your lifestyle.

Adopt one or more of these easy, uncomplicated weight-loss tactics instead of going on a "diet."

1. EAT BREAKFAST EVERY DAY

Eating breakfast every day is a practice shared by many people who have lost weight and kept it off.

Many individuals believe that missing breakfast is a fantastic way to lose weight, but they generally end up consuming more calories during the day.

Breakfast eaters had lower BMIs than breakfast-skippers and do better in school or the boardroom, according to research.

For a quick and healthy start to the day, try a bowl of whole-grain cereal topped with fruit and low-fat dairy.

2. CLOSE THE KITCHEN AT NIGHT

Set a timer to stop eating so you don't succumb to late-night hunger or mindless munching while watching TV.

If you want something sweet after supper, have a cup of tea, a piece of hard candy, or a small bowl of light ice cream or frozen yogurt, but then rinse your teeth so you are less tempted to eat or drink anything extra.

3. CHOOSE LIQUID CALORIES WISELY

Sweetened liquids are high in calories but do not satisfy hunger as solid foods do.

Water, sparkling water with lemon, skim or low-fat milk, or small servings of 100 percent fruit juice can quench your thirst.

If you become hungry in between meals, try a glass of healthy and low-calorie vegetable juice.

Be wary of alcohol calories, which may easily mount up. If you consume a glass or two of wine or a cocktail most days, restricting your alcohol use to the weekends may be a major calorie saving.

4. EAT MORE PRODUCE

Eating a lot of low-calorie, high-volume fruits and vegetables push out higher-fat, higher-calorie items.

Remove the meat from the middle of your platter and top it with veggies.

Stock your kitchen with a variety of fruits and veggies, and incorporate a couple of servings at each meal and snack.

Your diet will be loaded with vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, and fiber, and you won't be going for the cookie jar if you fill up on super-nutritious fruit.

5. GO FOR THE GRAIN

By swapping whole grains for refined grains such as white bread, cakes, cookies, and pretzels, you add much-needed fiber while also filling up quickly, making it easier to consume a moderate quantity.

Whole-wheat bread and pasta, brown rice, bran flakes, popcorn, and whole-rye crackers are all good choices.

6. CONTROL YOUR ENVIRONMENTS

Another easy way to save calories is to manage your surroundings, which includes anything from equipping your kitchen with plenty of healthy alternatives to selecting the correct eateries.

This involves avoiding the temptation by avoiding all-you-can-eat eateries.

When it comes to gatherings, have a nutritious snack beforehand to avoid being hungry, and be judicious when filling your plate at the buffet.

Wait at least 15 minutes before returning for additional food and drink a large glass of water.

7. TRIM PORTIONS

You will lose weight if you do nothing else except lowering your portions by 10% -20%.

The majority of servings offered in restaurants and at home are larger than necessary.

Bring out the measuring cups to get a grasp on your typical portion amounts and focus on reducing them.

Using tiny dishes, plates, and cups, you may achieve immediate portion control. You won't feel deprived because the meal will appear plenty on delicate dishware.
