Here’s how to lose weight in six weeks in just four simple steps…

She said: “To lose 1lb (0.5kg) of fat, you need to create a calorie deficit of 3,500 calories, and it’s easy to shift 1lb in a week simply by reducing your calorie intake by 500 calories a day.”

1. Ditch the diets

Although nutrition plays an important role in weight loss, it’s not always the healthiest thing to do.

Our bodies need fats, carbs and the whole lot – so removing any of that immediately could be bad.

Helen said: “Ditch the ‘diet’ mentality. By definition, ‘going on a diet’ infers there’s a start and stop date, meaning you only change what you eat during these times.

“The result: when you ‘finish your diet’ you return to the same eating habits that piled on the pounds in the first place and will make the weight come back on again!

“Instead, plan to change your eating habits for good and focus on the huge number of other benefits that eating well for life will have besides losing weight, such as more energy, better concentration, stronger immunity, a healthier heart, etc.”

2. Track your meals

Do you really know how many calories are in your lunch or dinner?

So if you want to burn belly fat, tracking your calorie intake for a few weeks make help you to get a better idea of what’s in your food.

Try using something like MyFitnessPal or the Healthspan app, both of which will set you targets.

MODERATION: Never cut anything out of your diet, just reconsider how much you eat of it

3. Snack more

Yes, that’s right. Eating more in the day will help you to lose weight.

The more hungry you get, the more likely you are to go rogue and choose something unhealthy to eat.

It’s best to fill up on healthy snacks in small portions, which have a good mix of filling protein.

4. Never cut out food groups

Many of us will think removing carbs from our diets is always the best thing when we’re trying to lose weight.

But you’re wrong.

Weight loss is all about creating that small calorie deficit which you can do with or without carbs.

And because you’re aiming for a healthy weight loss, don’t try to get rid of all your favourite foods.

Just remember, all in moderation.
