Sleep more and cooler: The quality of sleep and the temperature you keep in your room can affect your weight. If you’re not getting enough sleep, you feel tired, lazy and you’re more likely to binge eat. On average people that don’t get enough sleep (7-8 hours) eat 300 more calories than those who get a good night’s rest. Also, turn your thermostat down. A Japanese study found that people experienced a drop in body fat when they turned their thermostat down to 63 degrees. When your body is cold, this causes your muscles to work and generate heat—burning calories!
Chubby loved ones: Unfortunately happy couples tend to gain weight together. This is because they feel comfortable in the relationship and don’t feel the need to impress each other. The same thing goes for having overweight friends, they’re more than likely to induce you to eat unhealthy food or convince you to cheat on your diet because they don’t care about being in a diet.

Too much cardio: The first thing people do when they want to lose weight is hit the treadmill or go for a brisk walk. They like that they are sweating, which can only mean that their workout is working, right? No. Most people that do a lot of cardio at the beginning of their weightloss journey will see the pounds come off and fast. After a while the weightloss will stop because after 20 minutes they start to burn muscle, not fat. You want to build muscle, which pushes off fat and makes you look leaner and for this you need high intensity interval training which burns more fat than just staying at the same pace for the entire workout, which is what cardio does. Alternate your workout, and you’ll see the changes and feel stronger.
