Woman, man, young, old. Anyone can learn the habits that cause weight loss
Successful and permanent fat loss is something we make WAY to complicated. Fat loss is all mathematical. It’s a little more complex than this depending on your body type, age, and personal habits, but generally speaking, one pound of fat stores around 3500 calories. Calories are units of energy. If you’re inactive, it takes a long time to use up calories because little energy is being expended. Calories only come in as food and drink. Less energy coming in, combined with more energy going out as activity, creates successful fat loss. All math, all cause and effect.
I watched a documentary where a man lost fourteen pounds in around twelve hours. How? He swam the English Channel. While not one of the most useful fat loss tips for many of us, it serves as a great example. Since he didn’t eat while swimming, his body had no choice but to use fat stores for energy [muscle and organ mass are affected slightly]. Calories consumed as energy depends on the person and the activity. In his case, around 49,000 calories of energy were consumed from fat in twelve hours.
That’s how simple fat loss [and gain] is. It’s all in the math. However, not taking an honest look at the cause and effect of this math will make easy fat loss impossible. Not being honest when it comes to what we eat [and how active we are] is where too many of us set ourselves up for failure before even getting started.
So my number one successful fat loss tip: Take a very honest look at what you eat and how active you are. You can’t fix a problem you refuse to see. All the free fat loss tips in the world can’t help without a honest look.
My next most helpful fat loss tip is eat natural food. Junk food is not what your body was designed to use. Highly processed foods make it even harder for your body to use the fat you have stored for fuel.
By the way, these real fat loss tips are for men and women.
Next helpful fat loss tip: Get active. Just like the guy that swam the channel, your body burns fat much faster when it’s being physically challenged. If I had to pick my best fat loss tip, it would be this one: Do a 20 minute cardio workout first thing in the morning on a empty stomach. Then wait about an hour before you eat. Then eat nothing but protein; like eggs- for breakfast.
Do you see why this fat loss tip works so well? You wake up with no fuel in your system, so when you get active, your body has no choice but to burn fat for fuel. ‘
My best advice is this: Take action. You can know every honest fat loss secret in the universe, but it won’t do you a bit of good until you get started doing something. This is very individual, but I would go about this one small step at a time. Trying to change all your habits at once, while possible, can be very challenging. The real key to successful and permanent weight loss is learning what works for you- and to never stop making progress in the right direction.
To your health and success.
