How I Lost 31 Pounds Super Fast! These Tips Work For Everyone!

Hey guys, hey, it's Rachel and I'm finally back to being consistent on this channel I know I always say that i'm going to be consistent and then I fall off the face of the earth I wanted to start off with a bang by sharing tips on how I lost all of the weight. I started off at 170 i'm currently 139 I will say i'm fully breastfeeding and that could play a role in it too because breastfeeding They say helps you lose weight at a quicker pace. However, my husband went on this workout journey with me and lost Just about the same amount of weight as me before I get into the tips and tricks. I did cut off certain foods I did cut off red meat. So beef and pork I let go from my diet. I did stop drinking juice I did stop drinking soda, but I didn't stop drinking coffee tea and water So those are the three things that I tend to drink. So now that we got that out of the way Let me go ahead and um show you what I did. I don't do diets I just do straight lifestyle changes and um, I think with that being said i've been able to stay consistent with it Because I didn't do anything specific like as far as a diet. I just overall said I want to change my lifestyle I want to just overall stop eating poorly So the first thing that I did Was I drank a bottle of water before every single meal and this way it helped me to cut my meal portions in half now there's a lot of things out there like I think apple cider vinegar and there's like a lot of Pills and like just different things that'll help you to stop being hungry However, just the quick and easy way for us was just to drink a bottle of water Or two bottles of water before every meal and that'll help you eat your correct portion Um, there's definitely a lot of healthy recipes that can imitate unhealthy recipes if that's what you crave So for instance, sometimes I want fried chicken. I will put it in the air fryer Sometimes I want fried fish. I will put it in the air fryer or if I want to pan cook it I'll just use avocado oil and I won't over season and use a light breading. So there's just different alternatives You know, if you want french fries, you can do sweet potato fries. If you want soda, you could do a kombucha so there's just different ways to get your Craving out of the way when you want something. I hate working out and I hate to say it, but I did work out Okay, so that was part of me losing weight too. I did work out now i'm not a big sweater I don't sweat often So what I actually did was I drank a cup of coffee about 10 to 15 minutes before working out and it helped me to burn Fast it helped me to burn Like more calories off it helped me to sweat And so that is another tip too that I learned if you drink coffee before a workout You're going to burn faster. You're going to sweat more and you're going to let go of more calories But there were some people that I watched on youtube that helped me Bully juice is one. He does really good intense workouts. I also did um Zumba, there's one specific one that I always did and honestly all you have to google is Latin zumba workout and there's this guy and he does um It's like salsa dancing for literally an hour and that's like pretty much a workout in itself and it was really nice It's fun. I love dancing if you don't like working out. I highly recommend zumba riding bikes Swimming going for long long walks like mile walks jogging, you know things like that Where it doesn't really feel like a workout now if you're ready to go all in you want to just do hard workouts I highly recommend bully juice because you can work out from home if you don't want to pay a gym membership fee So that's what we did. We did all of our workouts at home We chose like morning or night to do it morning is preferable I think it makes you feel better and you get it out of the way and it makes you feel good about yourself And so I prefer a quick morning workout and you can start off small five minutes work your way up to 10 minutes work Your way up to 30 minutes work your way up to 40 50 minutes until your body gets used to it and you'll love it Now i'm to the point where if I don't work out for a long time I can feel it on my bones and it's kind of like my body needs that workout I eat five to six small meals a day for breakfast. I would do a green drink So I would make a green smoothie and then for lunch i'd eat something that I really like with my water And then have a little snack and so forth and so on now when you eat Very healthy and you cut your portions in half you're going to be hungry more. So don't let that scare you You're going to eat more But like I said smaller portions and just know what to eat to eat as soon as you wake up Do not starve yourself. Do not skip a meal. That was something that I used to do in the past It's not the healthiest when you wake up You should go ahead and eat and get your body ready to like start getting that energy. Okay, because food is fuel So you don't want to skip meals Uh eat when you wake up eat when you wake up as soon as you wake up That'll help that'll help you out. Don't check your weight as often I used to be a very big addict when it came to checking my weight and I realized that it was like mentally Making me crazy because what I would do personally and i'm telling you this so that you don't do this I would for instance be 145 pounds. I'd be like, okay i'm good I'm 145 and then i'll check my weight like three days later and i'll be Maybe 144 right and then i'll be like, oh my god. I gotta go extreme I gotta go extreme because I only lost one pound. Don't check your weight like that. Check it to start Okay, i'm this way workout workout eat clean do what I told you to do. Take your time. Take your time And then check your weight, but don't check it so often because it'll drive you insane Okay Also weight fluctuates during the day Depending on if you're bloated if you took a lot of water if you didn't drink a lot of water Just different things so you don't want to keep consuming yourself with it. It'll drive you crazy It'll make you want to skip meals or do certain things that you don't need to be doing So don't worry about the weight aspect and worry about how you feel So that's why i'm saying this is an overall lifestyle change Don't look at it as oh I need to do this dieting thing now now now like don't even look at it as a diet Look at it as a lifestyle change and tell yourself. Okay, i'm gonna cut my meals in half I'm gonna only do water. I'm going to eat clean I'm going to you know cut off like the bad foods. Also. I did cut off carbs I just want to let that be known. I don't eat rice. I stopped eating Um bread and I did alternatives cauliflower rice. I did. Um I didn't even do bread. So I did go extreme in that aspect But now that i'm like used to eating clean I definitely incorporated a little carbs here and there and I eat rice from time to time But when I first started I definitely went hard and I cut off carbs as well as the bread and meat I meant to say that okay Add veggies to every single meal every single meal If you don't like veggies do corn corn people don't really look at us as a veggie At least in my opinion or sweet potato something Add veggies to your meal and try to get those greens up eventually if you don't like it And then cut off eating at a certain time and that's my last tip for you if you start eating at 8 a.m You need to stop eating by 8 p.m Okay, that's just how I look at it. Just just pick a time to stop eating 8 p.m. Is my time specifically because when you sleep you burn calories, so You want to make sure you're getting good sleep and you want to make sure that you choose a time to stop eating by like 8 8 8 8 30 is usually like the time people choose to stop eating you can push nine o'clock if you sleep later but Try not to eat past a certain time only drink water if you get tempted to eat When you are tempted to eat Water or fruit is what you should snack on and it'll help you Because the fruit usually has water infused in it So it kind of makes you full in a way and then also what I did to help me In particular when I was tempted to eat some bad foods I just watched mukbangs on what I wanted to eat and that'll satisfy me mentally. However mukbangs are not everybody's cup of tea So what I recommend is 600 pound life or from fat to fit Or fit to fat I think is the show and it'll help you Just like stay focused. So those are my tips. I hope you all enjoyed the video Eventually, I will be doing a video where I just show you guys some recipes to make it easier But I like I said, I went from 170 I went from 170 and i'm currently 139. So I'm happy and proud of myself. I did it. You could do it too and it took a course of um, I don't know It's been like what two three months, but I lost like the first week I definitely like lost like five six pounds just by cutting meals in half and drinking only water So I know you can do it.
