We all know that water is good for us. It contains zero carbs and zero calories. Get used to drink at least 8 glasses of water per day. Water helps the body to flush out excess weight and improves your metabolism. You might say that plain water is boring, so you can use mint leaves or lemon wedges to pimp it up. Drinking alot of water tricks your body to make it feel less hungry. Try to drink one big glass of water before every meal.

2. Remove white grain products from your diet

If you eat a lot of white grain products such as white sandwich Breda, white rice and white spaghetti it will often cause bloating around your waistline. Try make a chicken salad instead of the usually chicken sandwich. You basically replace white grain products with vegtables. Every time you would eat chips with dip, try to make carrot and cucumber sticks with dip instead. Vegetables make you feel full for a longer period, while simple carbs from white grain products will still make you hungry, and you could develop a tendency to overeat.

3. Do 30 minutes of cardio every day (or every other day)

Thirty minutes of cardio exercises such as cardio kickboxing, spinning and could make a bit difference in your life. You could end up burning 200 to 300 calories while keeping your arms, legs and core tighter and toned. You could incorporate interval training into your routine, if you want to take it a step further.

4. Drink coffee one hour before workout

Just drink moderates of coffee. It's a good way to help losing weight. It raises your energy level a bit and it could help you burn fat a little easier. (May vary from person to person)

5. Sleep 30 minutes more every night

You will feel more refreshed and energized with an additional 30 minutes to your 5 to 8 hours of sleep. When you are in a good mood it's easier to make healthy food choices, and your will be more likely to go to the gym rather than staying at home. Sleeping 7-8 hours a night keeps your metabolism in good condition.

1) are you doing too much cardio?
2) are you working out over an hour everyday?
3) are you eating enough protein, fat and veggies?

It's gotta be one of those things. No one should be going to the gym everyday unless some of the days are for very light activities/recovery. Sounds like you're just doing too much.

Losing weight is really straightforward. There is no magic pill or method, people are just lazy and unwilling to put a stop to eating garbage. Exercise daily, eat healthy, and consume less calories than you need. That's it.
