There’s no need for crash diets if you choose the 28 way of losing weight.

You’ll lose the last few kilos faster if you know what you’re eating (and drinking!) If you want to lose those last stubborn 5kgs, you’re going to need to change what you’ve been doing. But first, you need to know what you ARE doing. I usually don’t recommend calorie counting, as it can be counterproductive to maintaining a healthy, balanced approach to eating. This is one of the reasons why my online weight loss program has been specially designed so you don’t have to think about calories. However, if you’re not following a specific weight loss eating plan, and you need to lose the last couple of kilos then it’s going to be important to locate areas of your diet where you can cut out unnecessary calories. If you’re serious about losing the last 5 kilos, take a look at my online diet program, 28 By Sam Wood. My at home program helps keep you motivated and on track until you reach your ideal weight. If a nutrition and fitness program like 28 isn’t for you and you want to shift those last 5 kilos on your own, then it can be useful to track your calorie consumption, just until you reach your goal weight.

Try keeping a record of what you eat and drink for a week.

Record everything you consume

Review your diary at the end of the week

Highlight anything that might be sneaking into your day (extra portions, snacks, wine, etc) that could be hindering your weight loss. If you’re struggling to lose the last 5kgs and you don’t know why, start a food diary and track everything you eat for a week – the results might surprise you!

2. Reduce your snacking

Reduce your snacking when you’re trying to lose the last few kilos

If you’re eating three regular, balanced meals, snacking is rarely needed unless you’re finding you’re consistently hungry. The exception to this is if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or have blood-sugar imbalances. If none of these apply to you, then consider reducing or cutting out your snacks until you reach your goal weight.

3. Eat foods that help control your weight-gaining hormones

If fat loss is your goal, hormonal control must be considered. If your hormones aren’t balanced it can promote fat storage and this is a common problem when you are trying to lose the last few kilos. And men, this applies to you too! To keep your fat-gaining hormones in check, stick to the 28 nutrition plan as closely as possible and make sure you follow steps 6 and 7 below, too.

4. Limit your treat meals

How many treat meals are you having per week? When you start seeing results, it can be easy to slip back into old habits and allow an extra treat meal here and there to creep back into your weekly eating. Remember that consistency and sticking to your healthy eating program is key to seeing results, so ask yourself honestly if you are as dedicated to your nutrition as you were when you first started your journey.

5. Increase the intensity of your workouts and… change it up!

Have you gotten too fit for your current exercise routine? To shift the kilos and get the best fitness results, we need to keep our bodies guessing and challenged, so don’t let yourself become too comfortable. If you aren’t feeling challenged by your workout then it’s time to increase the resistance, to change it up and increase the (fat) burn! Try this tough set of home exercises we call ‘The Cardio Finisher’ – it’s just an example of the fast, effective workouts on my 28 program.

6. Improve your gut health

Remember, your health starts in the gut. We want to achieve a good balance of bacteria in our gut and the best way to do this is to include probiotic and fermented foods like sauerkraut, kimchi, kefir and miso. You also want to feed the good bacteria with natural pre-biotic foods such as garlic, leek onion, Jerusalem artichoke and more fermented foods. We have a range of gut-health promoting recipes in our 28 by Sam Wood online weight loss program.

7. Manage your physical and mental stress

A little bit of stress isn’t a bad thing, but if your stress is left unchecked for too long it can hurt your health and your waistline. Stress causes your body to produce high levels of stress hormones: cortisol, adrenaline and norepinephrine. Cortisol can suppress your immune system, increase blood pressure, decrease your digestion and increase your fat storage. To bring your stress levels down we recommend taking some regular YOU time with activities like walking (ideally in nature), deep breathing, meditation, yoga, reading, and/or taking a long bath with magnesium salts or natural essential oils such as lavender or ylang-ylang.

8. Get more sleep

It’s going to be hard to lose the last 5 kilos if you’re not getting enough sleep. Your body needs time to renew and repair all your systems, so do your best to get 8 hours of sleep each night. Sufficient sleep really will maximise your weight loss and overall sense of wellbeing. And, as an extra bonus, when you wake up feeling energised in the morning you’ll be more likely to power through you day which helps you do the things you should do, like get your daily workout done, and it also strengthens your resolve to avoid things you probably shouldn’t do – like reach for high-calorie snacks when 3.30itis hits!
