1. Develop healthy eating habits. You need to limit complex and simple sugars (the bad stuff) and focus on eating lean protein and fibrous fruits and vegetables (the good stuff). Keep carbohydrate intake to a minimum. Increase lean protein. What you’re doing is creating a situation that will literally force the body's metabolism into burning fat for fuel.

2. Work up to thirty minutes. Start out slow, especially if physical activity is something new to you. But at least thirty minutes is your goal.

3. Change speeds on your treadmill. Intervals, or small bouts of intense exercise every few minutes during the duration of time on a treadmill can really boost overall fat burning.

4. Build strength first. Then try raising the incline to provide greater stress and faster results. When you raise your metabolic rate and keep it there for a length of time, that gets your body to digging deep into its fat stores for fuel. Free weight loss tips like this one will burn fat faster.

5. Stay hydrated. Water helps shuttle fat from stores on your body to hard working muscle cells and also aides in the transportation of oxygen from the lungs.

6. Stay hydrated. Got to say it again, it’s that important. Water even works as an appetite suppressant that can help avoid overeating at a meal. Just make it a habit to drink 8-12 ounces before sitting down to eat. Your amount of food consumed can often be cut in half.

7. Stay hydrated. There’s one more reason to say it again and it’s a biggie. Drinking more water also helps to reduce water retention by stimulating the kidneys. When you’re overweight, try and drink at least 1 glass of water daily, for every 25 pounds over your optimum size.

8. Get your sleep. Yep, it’s been documented. Not getting enough sleep can inhibit the body's ability to burn fat. Of all the free weight loss tips this is the one you're most likely to ignore. Don't. If you’re going to take the time and energy to work out and eat healthy you should strive to get the most out of each treadmill session by getting plenty of sleep.

9. Technique is important. Keep you head up, relax your neck and look straight ahead. Stay Loose. Let your arms swing naturally at your side and loosely cup your hands. Find a comfortable stride. Take steps that are comfortable for you, not too short or too long.

10. Keep it interesting. Listen to up beat music, books on tape or watch TV. Some people even set up a book holder on their treadmill and read.

But most importantly, make them part of your everyday lifestyle and keep the weight from ever coming back.

But always check with your doctor before you start any exercise, only with their OK do you fire up the treadmill and start burning fat.
