Now, what is this one thing and how do you do it? He suggested, “The one thing between now and the end of the year is: do not gain any weight.” Here are the 5 actions he suggested:

Between now and the end of the year, the fitness coach recommended exercising at least 20 times. “That means a little more than three times a week. Maybe you’re doing more, maybe you’re doing less, but figure it out. Make the 20 times happen. It’s just 6 weeks,” he suggested.
2. Walk at least 8k steps daily
Next, he recommended walking at least 8,000 steps, ideally 10,000 steps, every day. He explained, “You need not do this in one shot. You can break it up. You can accumulate throughout the day. How exactly you do it doesn’t matter, but make sure it happens. Again, it’s just 6 weeks.”
3. Add protein and vegetables to each meal
The fitness coach recommended adding some form of protein and vegetables to every meal you eat for the next 6 weeks. It can be any protein and vegetable, with only a few restrictions: “Make sure it’s not oily, fried, creamy, or rich.”
4. Do not overeat
Next, the fitness coach stressed, “Regardless of what you eat, when you eat, or where you eat, make sure you don’t overeat. If you can, slightly undereat if you can’t eat to satiety, but make sure you’re not eating to fullness.”
5. Track your weight
Lastly, he advised tracking your weight every day, be it every other day or a couple of times a week. “Make sure you’re always aware of what your body weight is. This awareness will help you put in the right efforts. that will help you stay on track consistently,” he explained.
