Every overweight person would agree that losing weight is an uphill battle and maintaining the weight loss is a completely different story.

But with the right tools and advice, shedding the extra kilos and keeping them off will make your life a lot easier.

According to Grandparents.com, seeking the help of a dietitian will help you stay focused on your weight loss goals and infusing small changes in your diet will give you better results than trying to make your diet healthy overnight.

It is also advisable to avoid thinking of certain foods as "off-limits", switching from a 12-inch plate to a 10-inch dinner plate and consuming food-rich in protein, like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, nuts and seeds, chicken, fish, beans, with every meal.

Lastly, to keep the weight off have a meal plan for each day of the week.
