To lose weight, fitness coach Raj Ganpath recommends 7 essential steps that will ensure you shed those kilos, including walking 10k steps daily and more.

Weight loss may be an uphill battle, but success requires simple, consistent steps. The moment you add difficult steps to your progress, it builds a recipe for failure. But what are these key things you need to keep in mind to achieve your goals?

In an Instagram post shared on August 8, fitness coach Raj Ganpath shared 7 things that can ensure you lose weight in a healthy manner. He shared the 7 essential steps and said, “Do these 7 things, and there is just no way that you won't lose weight.”

7 things that will help you lose weight

Here is your weight loss checklist. Are you ready?

1. Walk as much as you can every day

Two days of strength training and two days of endurance training is the perfect combination, per the fitness coach. “Don't overthink it. If you can, add in a couple more days. If you can't, don't worry about it,” he stressed.

3. Maximise the amount of lean protein and vegetables you eat

Next, he suggested, maximising your lean protein and vegetable intake, which means the majority of your plate during any meal should be protein and vegetables. Any kind of protein, any kind of vegetable—just make sure it's not oily, fried, creamy, or rich in any way.

4. Minimise sugars, starches, and fatty foods

“You don't have to eliminate them. But you most definitely need to reduce them; minimise them if you want to create a calorie deficit and lose weight. If you need to, drink more, but make sure you're sufficiently hydrated,” he said. Drink at least two litres of water every day.

6. Sleep at least seven hours every day

You may not be able to do this every single day like clockwork, and that's okay, he advised. “Try to get about 50 hours of sleep every single week. If you can do these six things consistently for the next four to six weeks, you will slowly but surely lose weight. All the best,” the coach said.

7. Don't overeat

Lastly, if you're already doing all of the above steps, then, next step is to never overeat. In every meal, stop eating just before you're satisfied. “This will mean you're a little hungry for an hour or two before your next meal, and that's absolutely ok, and in fact, necessary,” he explained.
