The internet is literally filled with tips and tricks to help any person lose weight. Try googling "weight loss" and see for yourself.
But if you look at most of these articles, you will find they usually same the same thing --- make the right food choices, exercise, de-stress, etc. If you have tried most, if not all, of these things and still have not noticed any significant weight loss, you might want to check out these new tricks.
1. Find New Friends
A lot of people lack the motivation to lose weight and if you cannot motivate yourself, be sure you are surrounded with people who can not only motivate you but also support you in achieving your goals.
If you unfortunately do not have any friends who can step up to challenge then there is no reason for you not to go out and look for new ones. You will be surprised at how a lot of people have gym buddies or "Zumba" mates. They will certainly be more encouraging and you will even have more fun this way.
2. Load Up on Apps
Your mobile phones are not only good for texting or emailing but they can also be converted into handy weight loss tools. Simply go to the AppStore or Play Store app on your smartphone and search for apps which you think can help you achieve your goals.
There are apps for counting calories, distance you ran and even for planning healthy meals. Instead of downloading games and whatnots, make better use of your phones.
3. Get Rid of Your Gadgets (Sort of)
If you are spending hours and hours on the couch playing games on your devices or game consoles, maybe it is about time to delete those game apps or shelve those consoles --- unless they will be helping you lose weight.
For instance, there are Wii games like tennis which can almost be the same as the real thing. You can also use your consoles as DVD players so buy exercise videos instead like basic Yoga, Pilates and the popular, Zumba.
Of course, nothing beats going out and actually playing these sports game so dust off your tennis racquet, call up a tennis body and work up a sweat.
4. Take More "Selfies"
Nothing else will motivate you more than seeing yourself online and not looking your "best". In today's world of Facebook, Instragram and Twitter, it would be better for you to take more and more selfies to motivate yourself into losing weight.
You can choose to take "before" and "after" photos for better results. Plus, the fact that your online friends can see your progress and leave encouraging comments will make you feel even more inspired. Just make sure you do not abuse the concept of selfies and watch out for privacy settings if you do not want the whole world to see these photos!
5. Check Out the Home Shopping Network
A lot of you probably ignore the home shopping network and consider them a waste of time but you will find there are actually exercise equipment being sold there that might suit your lifestyle and weight loss objectives. Just make sure you do your homework before making a purchase.
