Weight loss diet techniques can help you lose those stubborn pounds before summer.
How to lose fat is on of the biggest questions British dieters ask.
Now an expert has revealed their best techniques to lose fat, including getting rid of one type of food.
Karen Beck has told Women’s Health that simply removing your favourite food from the house can help you shed the pounds.
According to her putting healthy food on eye levels shelves and putting the other stuff elsewhere is a simple way to get you to eat healthier.
This could help you lose almost two stone, according to some research by Cornell University.
According to the study, those who kept unhealthy food on their kitchen counter weighed on average 12kg more.
So keeping your biscuits in a jar on the kitchen counter could well be contributing to weight gain.
The best way to make sure you eat well is to simply cut junk food out of your weekly shop. This means if it’s not in the house it won’t be on hand to eat it.
Eating more fibre and fat is another great way to lose the pounds, according to another health expert.
Miguel Toribio-Mateas, expert nutrition practitioner and clinical neuroscientist, said: “In terms of carbohydrates, pulses, legumes and lentils are your best choice, but aim to include starchy carbs like rice, potatoes and rye bread in around six meals per week.”
There are many reasons that fibre is supposed to be great for weight loss.
Fat is also good to help you feel full, and to absorb the nutrients from your food.
Some fibre is especially good for those looking to lose fat.
The harder a fibre is for the body to breakdown, the more effective it is at filling dieters up and reducing the number of calories they eat.

Drinking coffee has also been found to help with weight loss.
Nutritionist Sarah Flowers advises drinking the beverage first thing to “boost both concentration and energy levels” but also to slim down.
One of the ways it does this is to boost metabolism. Sarah explained: “Your daily cup of coffee can help boost your metabolic rate, by stimulating thermogenesis, helping you in turn to burn more fat.”
