Fasting
Skip a meal, eat once a day, do not eat for a day, do multi-day fasts ... there are a lot of fasting options. Extended fasting is the quickest way to get into fat burning mode. It also promotes autophagy, a process in which your body devours cells or parts of cells that have passed their best before date. After the fast ends your body makes new and improved cells and you end up healthier.
