Fabulous Natural Weightloss Tips

101 Best Weight Loss Tips Ever is the very best natural weight loss tips I've gathered over the 20 years of researching and working as a psychologist with a special interest in weight, body and eating.

Try our natural weightloss tips, and you could change your life. Tips to lose weight the healthy way are all part of the ditch diets and live light experience. What makes our healthy weight loss tips extra special though is that they're not just about physical weight loss, but mental and psychological weight too. So often we're weighed down by weighty thoughts.

And best of all, they are tried and tested and they are small things you can implement in your life without turning your life upside down. Just taking one small tip a month and implementing it can make big changes to your health and weight over time.

Natural Weightloss tip #1

Merely changing the speed at which you eat can totally change the way you eat AND how much enjoyment you get from food. Eating like a hare is the fastest way to over-eat. When we eat slowly and savour, we can enjoy food more and actually land up eating less. Try out fabulous intuitive eating exercise.

Tip to lose weight naturally #2

Banish black and white thinking. Let's say you were determined not to eat candy for a week and you slipped. So what's really the big deal? You haven't committed some heinous crime. But when you tell yourself you have, then you're likely to find yourself getting what I call the 'what the heck syndrome' and then turn to comfort eating.

Natural Weightloss tip #3

Never try to implement anything 100% perfectly, that's an invitation to set yourself up for failure. No need to beat yourself up and tell yourself you're a weak-willed failure and then land up thinking, "I'm a useless, hopeless, failure." That's not helpful to your health, and it won't help you lose weight. Make allowance for your human failings and instead of letting that harsh critic lose, ask yourself what you can learn to prevent it happening again.

Natural Weightloss tip #4

Want to add flavour to your food without adding unecessary extra calories? I love cooking with herbs like sage, origanum, rosemary or thyme. I also find that squeezing a wedge of lemon over my food when it's still hot often adds a fabulous burst of flavour.

Healthy weight loss tip #5

So you hate exercise? Well you didn't as a child. Spend a few minutes figuring out what exactly you don't like about exercise? Because, believe it or not, there is definitely a way to enjoy an active lifestyle. Going to the gym just isn't for everyone. So often our ideas about what counts as exercise are keeping us from enjoying it. Did you know that even playing with your children can be exercise?

Tips to lose weight #6

Stop thinking "I have to lose weight." According to the law of attraction the more you think of losing weight- the more weight you have to attract to lose! Think: "I'm getting healthy."

Natural Weightloss tip #7

Get more sleep. When you don't get enough sleep, according to researchers at the Sansum Medical Research institute, the hormone Leptin that switches off our sweet tooth for carbohydrates, doesn't get activated.

Tip #8 to lose weight

You know all those fabulous diet foods? Check those labels very carefully, low fat doesn't mean low calorie. And sugar sweeteners often increase your craving for sweet things.

Healthy weight loss tip #9

Make water your drink of choice. Your body is made of a very high percentage of water. A drop on only 2-3% water can slow your metabolism

Natural weightloss Tip #10

Wait until your body actually asks for food in the morning before eating breakfast. Just changing this one aspect of their eating has changed the weight stuggles of many people who ate because they always thought they 'had' to.

Tip #11

If you love gravy, but find all the fat from the meal is left in the baking tray, drop a few ice cubes into the baking tray. The fat will stick to the ice cubes, then simply remove them and you'll have a much healthier gravy.

The Green Eating Guide


I am a university-bound teenager from the United States. Two years ago I was diagnosed with anorexia, a battle that eventually found me in the hospital.Dieting has robbed me of too much time. I found this website by chance. I've spent a lot of time browsing through articles and reading stories. It has changed my attitude and made me want to be MY ideal weight, not someone else's. Thank you to all the contributors and readers of Mind over Fatter. I deeply appreciate everything you do.(abridged by Cari)

It's easy in our society today to feel that our value is determined by the number on the scale. I am encouraged to change my mind so I can love myself for who I am not how much I weigh. Thank you so much for your website. It is such an inspiration to me!
