How to lose weight without exercise

It's a common misconception that an intense workout regimen is the only way to lose weight. While staying active is an important part of keeping a healthy lifestyle, it is not the only way to reach your weight loss goals.

Let’s take a look at some tips and tricks for achieving lasting weight loss without traditional exercise.

Focus on Your Diet

The most crucial component for your overall health and well-being is a balanced diet. Not only is this essential for maintaining a healthy weight, but it is also important to fuel your body to keep it functional for the most basic of daily activities.

The simplest way to keep your diet in check is to focus on lean proteins and fiber-rich foods such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains. These fiber sources are not fully digested, so the calorie contribution will be less than other carb sources. Protein is more thermogenic than carbohydrates and fats—this means it requires more energy for digesting and absorbing. This causes you to burn more calories eating high-protein foods compared to those higher in carbs and fat.

Drink Lots of Water

Another key component of healthy weight loss is drinking water to keep yourself hydrated. Not only will this help you feel fuller longer, it is essential for proper digestion and overall health. Drinking water also supports a healthy metabolism, which in turn can help you lose weight. If you want to follow a weight loss plan without exercise, it is important to stay hydrated throughout the day.

Eat Smaller Portions

Weight loss is dependent on "calories in" being lower than "calories out." It's easy to go over those calories if you're not regularly keeping track of what you're eating.

You can use measuring tools when cooking and prepping meals to ensure you are keeping track of your food intake and not overeating at mealtime. Using a food journal or free weight loss app is another great way to keep tabs on how much you're eating at each meal. You can even trick yourself into eating less by portioning your food on smaller plates so it appears you are eating more than you realize.

Get Enough Sleep

Getting enough sleep is another important factor when it comes to losing weight without exercise. Not getting enough sleep can lead to fatigue and an increased appetite during the day, which can result in overeating and/or cravings for unhealthy snacks or fast food. Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night!

Keep Moving

While hardcore workouts aren't necessary, movement is still important for a happy and healthy lifestyle. Sitting at your desk all day is not only bad for your heart, but bad for your mental functionality and well-being. Any diet or meal plan recommends at least 30 minutes of movement per day to keep your heart healthy and help keep food moving through your digestive system. This can easily be achieved by taking a 10-minute walk after your lunch and snack breaks. One more quick trip around the block after dinner, and you've gotten in your movement for the day. It’s easy, enjoyable and your body will thank you!
