Losing weight can be as simple as cutting out one teaspoon of sugar in your morning coffee or forgoing that extra slice of bread with your dinner.

To lose a pound of fat a month, assuming your intake and expenditure of all other calories remains the same, all you need to do is cut 100 calories a day from your diet.

One pound of body fat is equivalent to about 3,500 calories. So if you cut 100 calories a day for 31 days, you’re cutting 3,100 calories or about a pound.

If you’re concerned that this pace is not fast enough, consider looking into the Doctor Directed Weight Loss Program which will enable you to lose 10 pounds in the first 14 days and then show you how to effectively lose 1 – 3 pounds per week until you reach your desired weight. Best part is you will also know the secret to keep your weight at this new level for life. No more Yo-Yo dieting.

Below are 25 simple weight loss tips to cut 100 or more calories a day.
