Fitness Trainer Reveals 8 'Weird' Habits That Can Help You Lose Weight

Tired of following multiple weight-loss diets and not seeing any results?

While many may recommend combining a strict, high-intensity workout routine with healthy food, Instagram-famous fitness trainer <span>Tarn Kaur</span>, who managed to lose nearly 40kg in less than a year, has revealed the 'weird' habits that helped her get back in shape instead. 

<strong>Here is what the former lawyer, now online coach, recommends: </strong>

<span>Kaur</span> noted in a lengthy <span>Instagram</span> post: "If I don’t see it, i don’t eat it. Hiding tempting foods has saved me from so many unnecessary snacks. out of sight, really, does mean out of mind."

The fitness expert revealed that she likes to eat a piece of mint after meals or whenever junk food cravings hit. "It’s like a little pause button for my brain and stops me from reaching for junk," she noted. 

In order to avoid binge eating or consuming excessive calories, Kaur logs her treats in an app even before she consumes them. She clarified that she likes to track her treats so as not restrict herself from eating but to 'take control and enjoy food without guilt'. 

Kaur explained: "If a food won’t give me pure satisfaction, I skip it. Life’s too short to feel bloated for something mediocre. My body deserves better." The trainer believes life is too short to feel bloated over something mediocre and feels her body deserves better.

<h2>5. Saying “I'm Full” Out Loud</h2>

Kaur mentioned that saying “I'm full” out loud helps signal her brain that she's done eating and prevents mindless bites when she's not paying attention.

Citing the phrase 'out of sight, out of mind', Kaur admitted that restaurants used to once be her downfall but now she steers clear from bread baskets and chips while dining out. 

<h2>7. Portion Awareness With Clothing</h2>

The trainer also mentioned that she steers clear of comfy joggers as they often led to endless grazing for her, while fitted clothes served as a gentle reminder to respect portions and stay mindful of her body.

<h2>8. Throwing Away What Doesn't Serve You</h2>

Lastly, Kaur told her viewers that while leftovers tempt her, they do not align with her goals go straight into the bin. For her, it is not about guilt but about choosing herself first. 

Apart from this, Kaur also recommends swapping traditional Indian tea with black coffee, white rice with cauliflower rice, packaged juices with electrolytes, fried snacks with baked veggie chips, sugary biscuits with almond flour cookies and white bread with wholegrain bread to maximize benefits.
