10 Weird Yet Effective Ways to Lose Weight


In case you want to shed pounds, but aren’t exactly sure how you want to do it, we have the right options for you. In this article we’re going to present you some weird but very effective ways of losing weight:

1. Cabbage Soup Diet

Instead of eating your usual meals, replace them with cabbage soup. Cabbage soup with a light broth and a few vegetables, such as carrots and celery, can help you lose weight. While you may get tired of eating the soup for several days, you should notice a difference on the scale.

2. Apple Cider Vinegar

Swallowing one teaspoon of apple cider vinegar may suppress your appetite, which will prevent you from eating too much.

3. Ice Cold Water

Drinking ice cold water helps you burn calories because the body has to work on warming the water. Next time you grab a glass of water, consider putting plenty of ice cubes in it.

4. Lettuce Bread

If you often eat sandwiches, replace the bread and rolls with large pieces of lettuce instead. You’ll cut back on the number of calories you’re consuming, but you’ll also avoid the carbs.

5. Pole Dancing

You can take pole dancing lessons that will entertain you while helping you burn calories and gain stronger muscles.

6. Grapefruit Water

Drinking grapefruit water before meals may reduce your appetite. Drink at least 8 ounces of grapefruit water before each meal. By drinking it, you’ll fill your stomach up, and won’t eat as much food.

7. Body Wrapping

You can mix a moisturizing lotion and a sugar scrub, then rub generously over your stomach, and wrap it up with clear plastic wrap. Leave it on over night. Wrapping can help you lose a few inches around your waist.

8. Juice Cleanse

While on a juice cleanse, you should avoid eating food for 2-3 days. Use blender to create flavorful juices, like carrot with orange and kiwi or lemon and apples and drink plenty of them.

9. The Military Diet

While some diets keep you from eating fun foods, like hotdogs or pizza, this diet promotes the consumption of them thus not eating buns, canned tuna, eggs or fruits.

10. Veggie Feast

This means eating nothing but only vegetables for 3-5 days. You should avoid regular potatoes, but sweet potatoes are included. During the veggie feast you can consume broccoli, carrots and cauliflower.
