Lots of people are on the internet trying to sell the latest and greatest fat loss tips in all sorts of formats. It isn't that these tips are wrong when it comes to wanting to slim down, it's just that lots of the products available are simply makeovers of information that has been floating around the web for years. They work, but do you really need to spend a ton of cash on these ideas?



If you do enjoy spending money to believe that something is important and that the more you spend, the better the information is, then the following tips are probably not for you. Since they're so simple in nature they can be done by nearly anyone. No need to buy a health and fitness center membership or spend money on the super size weight set or one of those machines that folds up and sits in the corner of your apartment.



Pretty much, with a lot of people it's a given that the fitness center membership will simply continue to be a regular expense that people feel guilt ridden about giving up. Extensive weight sets with super curl bars and such are really targeted toward pro athletes and the machines spend most of their time folded up in the corner.



Here are two top guidelines to help you burn more fat and lose more pounds in your quest for better health.



Drink More - Drink A Lot More



Water that is. Go to your refrigerator and get rid of all the artificially sweetened drinks. Throw out all the energy drinks and for right now, don't even drink fresh squeezed juice. Many people don't drink anywhere near enough water during the course of the day. And plenty of times when people experience hunger or think its time for a snack, what is really happening is that they are thirsty. 



Your brain has learned to misread the signals from the blood, especially if you have been drinking lots of artificially sweetened drinks. Your system desires water, and many people give it food instead. Try drinking about 6 - 8 glasses (8 ounces) per day and you will be quite surprised by how different you feel when it comes to meals.





Eat More - Eat A Lot More 



Often that is. For some reason when we are growing up were taught the notion that not only are we supposed to get hungry on a schedule (and usually somebody else's schedule) but that when we get the meal, we are well behaved if we clean our plates. The number of calories that many people eat in the course of one regular meal can often be more than many slimmer people eat in the course of a whole day.



If you decide that you are going to be in charge of your diet plan and your own weight loss, then try breaking up the day with more frequent meals. Simple truth is, your stomach is only about the size of your fist. How much food do you actually think you can fit in there? And interestingly, many people learn to eat through fear of there not being any more food for them.



So not only are they scared, but they eat a lot more than their bodies could quite possibly process before next meal time. Eat small meals, more often during the day, and you will be amazed at how hungry you do NOT get during the day. Your body will process the food more efficiently; and you will not eat anywhere near as much since you are not as hungry. 



Try the two of these tips out. They are easy to implement in your regular day and they can help you see results very quickly, which will give you even inducement to lose weight fast.
