I know we all want to lose weight right now!!!
It took you years to put it on, but you want to get rid of it in one day….
Well, everyone can lose weight!
You starve yourself and drop pounds quickly , then go back to your old eating habits gain it all back and more 🙁
So what happened?
First of all eating and living healthy is a life style!
If you want to maintain that healthy body you can not go back from where you came!
Logic right?
Second losing weight quickly just means that you lost water and muscle ( like I mentioned previously … Your calorie burning machine).
Every pound of muscle needs X amount of calories per day just to survive!
Cutting down on muscle means less calories for you, it’s that simple!!!
So now you’ve lost 10 pounds in a short period of time, which means you have less muscle but more body fat since it didn’t go anywhere ….
Ones you eat your favorite snacks again your body will hold on to fat tissue to protect itself, and store all those calories as body fat just to make sure.
That means slower metabolic rate for you, harder to lose weight!
Now your body will give you hunger pains all the time to make sure you keep eating!!!
Typical side effects of yo yo dieting 🙁
Talking about what not to do 😉
I have seen people on the Atkins diet losing 100 pounds but still looking the same!
Because their body fat never lowered and actually increased!
Stop being so concerned about numbers!!!
The only important number should be your body fat!
Women are considered healthy with a body fat under 25% men under 18%
How to do this better?
Eat a clean and healthy diet ( as close as possible to natural state)
Don’t starve yourself ( if you get hungry eat some vegetables and a protein or include a healthy fat like avocado to keep you satisfied longer)
Exercise!!!
We are designed to move ( that’s why we have muscles)!
Do weights!!!
You need to build muscle to start up your calorie burning machine 🙂
Don’t worry about getting bulky!
These big woman you see in those muscle magazines are not on multivitamines….
95% of men like athletic looking woman!
Drink a gallon of water per day!
Water flushes out your toxins, deliveres oxygen to all your cells, keeps your kidneys and liver healthy, helps speed up fat burn!
Don’t drink sodas or diet soda, any soda slows down your thyroid function and cause kidney stones as well as increase acidity in your body which can lead to cancer!!!
Your fitness should consist in weight lifting, cardiovascular, and flexibility!
Lose weight slower and the right way to get rid of body fat and achieving the body you want!
There is no fast forward button!
Be responsible in your choices!
Be upfront and ask for special cooking instructions and specify your food in restaurants!
Pre cook your meals and package them to protect yourself from making wrong Choices!!!
Losing weight the healthy way may take a little longer but the end result will be 100% satisfactory!
