Removing sugars and starches (carbs) from your diet will also help lower insulin levels, making your kidneys to remove excess sodium and water out of your body. When it happens, it will help reduce bloating and unnecessary water weight. You may lose up to 10 pounds (sometimes more) in the first week of eating this way.

#2 Eat Protein, Fat and Vegetables

Include a protein source, a fat source and low-carb vegetables in each of your meal. This will help bring down your carb intake. The recommended carb is 20 50 grams per day.

Eating plenty of protein can boost your metabolism, reduce cravings and late-night snacking. Foods which are rich sources of protein include meat, fish and eggs.

Load your plate with low-carb vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, spinach and tomatoes. They contain fibre, vitamins and minerals, all that you need to be healthy.

Don't ever try low-carb and low-fat at the same time, it's a recipe for failure. Eat some fat too either from olive oil, coconut oil, avocado oil or butter.
