Losing weight can be incredibly challenging regardless of whether you’re looking to lose five pounds or 20.
Not only does it require diet and lifestyle changes, it also takes quite a bit of patience.
Fortunately, using a mix of proven strategies can simplify and expedite weight loss.
Here are 10 of the best ways to quickly and safely drop 20 pounds
1 Count calories
Weight loss occurs when you use more calories than you take in, either by reducing your intake or increasing your physical activity.
While cutting calories alone is generally not considered a sustainable way to lose weight, counting calories can be an effective weight loss tool when paired with other diet and lifestyle modifications.
Keeping track of your calorie intake can increase your awareness of what you’re putting on your plate, giving you the knowledge you need to make healthier choices.
