Don’t get us wrong, a simple meal plan to lose weight is a tried and tested strategy. If you’re reading this blog, chances are you already know the drill – after all, you’re living the drip life!

However, there are still some special slimming tips for advanced drippers like you, and we’re more than happy to share them!

1.   Rest to look your best

Good news: you officially have permission to press that snooze button! Bad news: consistently skimping on sleep can have serious consequences, such as negatively influencing how your body stores fat.

Besides obvious drawbacks like fatigue and brain fog, poor sleep habits can also affect your hormones, increasing your appetite and cravings for unhealthy foods. In other words: start prioritising getting a good night’s rest. They don’t call it beauty sleep for nothing!

2.   Mind over fatter

Your brain is one of the most important muscles to train in your weight loss exercise journey. With the wrong mindset, even the most dedicated lean queen can lose track of their regular fitness momentum. The trick here is to foster a positive attitude. Find a strong motivation to get started, like the fact that you’re investing in your health and happiness. Soon, staying healthy will become a habit – and your mind and body will benefit.

3.   Supplement your shine

Look, we can all use a helping hand once in a while. And luckily, there’s a whole super squad of supplements available to help you slim down and shape up faster. Vitamins B and D, along with iron and magnesium, can give your metabolism a healthy boost – just what you need to kick start your weight loss journey!

4.   Toss the treats

So, you’ve been working hard, seeing results, and feeling good. Which surely earns you a tasty reward, right? Wrong! Leave the food goodies to Fido unless you want to send all your hard-earned results straight to the doghouse. Instead, reward yourself with something non-snack-based, like a relaxing massage or a slinky new swimsuit.
