From hydrating the body to adding something sweet to her daily diet, here are five things that Amber did to attain her weight goal using effective weight loss strategies.
Weight loss is a journey of choosing the right diet, physical activity and lifestyle for ourselves, every single day till we attain the desired weight goal, and even after that.
It comes with its set of negotiables and non-negotiables. Amber Clemens, personal coach (according to her Instagram bio), keeps sharing snippets and tips from her own weight loss journey of losing 160 pounds (72 kg), on her Instagram profile, amber_c_fitness.
Recently, Amber shared five things that she did every day as part of her weight loss strategies to lose weight effectively.
“Sustainable, lasting weight loss comes down to what we do daily and most of the time. Were there days where I didn’t do all of these things? Of course! But I did them most of the time.
And if I couldn’t make all of them happen, I at least tried to make some of them happen,” read an excerpt of her post.
Amber lists 5 things that can help you lose weight
Walking 7-10 thousand steps: Small steps make big changes. Maintaining a routine to walk every day can do wonders for the body.
Amber said that she took the longer route to another room, or took the steps instead of the elevator to add more physical activity to her day.
Drinking 3 liters of water: Hydration is key, and drinking at least three liters of water helps the body to stay hydrated and healthy. This is one of her weight loss strategies.
25-30 grams of protein: With every meal, Amber consumed at least 25-20 grams of protein. For snacks, she consumed 5-10 grams of protein.
This helped her reach her daily protein intake goal, which is another one of her key weight loss strategies.
Pre-logging the food for next day: Amber said that she pre-logged her food for the next day before going to bed. This helped her as she did not need to wake up and decide what to have.
Adding something sweet to the day: be it having a dessert at night or an afterwork snack, Amber added something sweet to consume in her day to curb her cravings.
Consistently incorporating these weight loss strategies helped her stay on track.
