There are a lot of small and simple things that you can do to help create a leaner you. We will look at some of those over the next couple of weeks. Don't feel like you have to incorporate all of them into your life at once. You will feel overwhelmed and won't stick with it. Start out slow and try adding one or two and as you master those start adding in more. You will love the way you start to feel!
Calories Are The Tipping Point: There are numerous tricks you can implement to help burn body fat. The key principle above all others is to create a calorie, or energy, deficit to stimulate the body to burn body fat as fuel. That means eating less, whether it be fewer calories from dietary fat, carbs or a combo of the two.
Calorie Deficits: Weekly Approach: Conventional wisdom states that you have to eat fewer calories to shed fat. Not true. On average, you have to eat fewer calories over a seven-day period to drop body fat. You can fudge a bit by eating fewer calories than normal for a couple of days, followed by a couple of very strict days and then a few days where you eat roughly what you did before starting the diet.
Protein Needs Rise During Dieting: When excess calories from dietary fat and carbs are removed from a diet, the body burns small amounts of amino acids from protein, or worse, muscle mass when calories decline. The extra protein protects muscle loss, because it can be burned in lieu of muscle tissue.
