Eight Great Weight Loss Tips : Weight loss tip #5: Reduce stress
↪ Weight loss tip #4: Eat 4-6 smaller meals per day instead of 2-3 big ones.
Weight loss tip #5: Reduce stress. Stress causes our body to release cortisol which is a hormone that helps us deal physiologically with stress. Simply put, the adaptations our body does in response to stress are contrary to weight loss.


The release of cortisol promotes fat storage and suppresses the manufacture of other hormones that promote building of lean muscle mass. Try yoga, try meditation, try a hobby or punching a heavy bag. Just do what works for you to lower stress.
↪ Weight loss tip #6: Determine how many calories you need to maintain your current weight.
