You don’t need to run a marathon. In fact, too much cardio can increase your appetite and make you crave carbs. Stick to walking. Seriously. Walk for 45 to 60 minutes every day. Briskly. Like you’re late for a sale. This burns fat without making you ravenous. Add in some bodyweight squats, push-ups, or lunges. Nothing fancy. Just move a little. Think of it as gentle nudge, not a beating.
If you have weights, do compound lifts like deadlifts or squats. They burn tons of energy and build muscle, which burns more calories at rest. But don’t overdo it. You’re in a calorie deficit. Your energy will be lower. That’s okay. You’re not training for the Olympics. You’re losing a stone.

Become an early bird for two weeks. Your waistline will thank you.
