 The rate at which a person's body burns calories for energy is referred to as their metabolism. This is determined by a number of factors, including your age, gender, heredity, body fat, muscle mass, and degree of activity. You will burn more calories both at rest and during activities if your metabolism is high. Here are some lifestyle adjustments that will rev up your fat-burning furnace and help you reach your weight-loss goals faster.

 Steps to follow to boost your metabolism to speed up weight loss:

 1. HIGH-INTENSITY WORKOUT:

 High-intensity exercise raises your metabolism and fat-burning for hours, not just for the time you exercise. Try a more rigorous gym class or incorporate short bursts of jogging into your normal stroll to reap the benefits. Other workouts you might attempt include HIIT, running, swimming, and cycling. A practice that alternates periods of high-intensity and low-intensity exercise can also help you improve your metabolism.

 2. HYDRATE:

 Water is required for proper metabolism. According to one study, adding 1.5 litres of water to daily consumption lowered average weight and BMI in a sample of overweight women aged 1823. Your metabolism may stall if you are even marginally dehydrated.

 3. SMART SNACKING:

 Maintaining metabolic balance is easier when you eat at regular intervals. A little meal or snack every 3 to 4 hours keeps your metabolism revved up, allowing you to burn more calories throughout the day. People who snack on a daily basis eat less during meals. Otherwise, a person's body may burn calories more slowly and store more fat cells if they consume a lot at once and then go for long periods without eating.

 4. DRINK GREEN TEA:

 Though no studies have definitively established it, some evidence suggests that green tea extract aids in the promotion of metabolism and fat melting. It is unquestionably a better option than sugary juices, and it also contributes to your daily water intake.

 5. WELL-RESTED BODY:

Sleep deprivation has been linked to a significant rise in the risk of obesity. The deleterious effects of sleep loss on metabolism may play a role in this. Sleep deprivation has also been associated with elevated blood sugar levels and insulin resistance, raising the risk of type 2 diabetes.

 Weight Loss and the Motivation to Lose Weight: I commenced my fitness and weight loss journey after delivering my baby when I was 40 kgs overweight. It was a challenging time when I faced a lot of health issues at the age of 25 and it was an awakening for me to take my health seriously.

 Weight Loss Diet: When I started my journey, I wasn't aware of intermittent fasting in 2016. So when my nutritionist told me to have my dinner by 5 pm I was shocked. Initially, it was tough for me to control, but when I started seeing the results, I believed in its power of it. Fasting for 16 hours every day without fail, be it travelling, partying, attending weddings and moreover holidays too, this had to be a lifestyle now. The next thing was to stop eating refined flour, fried food, junk food, sweets, and aerated drinks.

  • Breakfast: Slim milk one cup with a handful of cereal (muesli or wheat flakes)
  •  Midday: One bowl of green salad
  • Lunch: One roti (whole wheat) with sabji and a bowl of curd
  • Snack: Almonds around 5 'o'clock OR a biscuit with tea
  • Dinner: 2 egg white omelette OR clear soup OR a glass of smoothie
  • And at least 3 Litres of water
  • Weight Loss and Cheat Meal: I was extensively dedicated to my weight loss journey and health that I actually would not plan for a cheat meal and was able to control my cravings. But occasionally I would indulge in my usual favourites to satisfy my uncertain cravings- Like Dark chocolate.

    Food I Quit to Reach Weight Loss Goal: If there is one thing that I totally removed from my diet then it was sugar. I made sure that my daily intake of any food items had no sugar content, and I was strictly adhering to it to reach my target weight. I would rather eat a bigger meal than a few spoons of Halwa!

  • Weight Loss and Workout Routine: Initially, I was sticking to rather simple daily exercises and running activities. Honestly for the first few days, it was rather difficult for my body to adjust to the same but gradually my body started building stamina and got empowered. Soon after, I lost 15 kgs when I started doing more activities such as power yoga and strength training. With enhanced stamina and body flexibility, I was able to integrate a rather higher intensity workout which helped me with the diet I was following to further push me on my weight loss journey.
