People seem to make setting up a fat loss diet more complicated than
it needs to be. A fat loss diet that works every time is to eat less
calories than what you burn. If you do this, you will lose fat! The
problem is that people seem to make this more complicated than they
need to.
You Need To Know How Many Calories You Burn to Set Up Your Fat Loss
Diet
Your Basic Metabolic Rate, or BMR, is how many calories you burn each
day just by being alive. This doesn't include calories burned by
activities. A rough estimate of BMR is simply your body weight
multiplied by 10. Knowing this number is crucial in setting up a great
fat loss diet. If you want to know a much more accurate number do a
Google search for "BMR calculator".
How Many Calories to Consume on Your Fat Loss Diet.
So to setup your fat loss diet, you will need to eat less than you
burn. If you are active, you will burn more than your BMR. To make
sure your fat loss diet is successful, however, let's assume that you
won't burn more than your BMR number. So if you weigh 150 pounds and
your BMR is 1,500, then you will want to insure your fat loss diet is
setup to where you eat less than 1,500 calories per day.
What Type of Foods to Consume on Your Fat Loss Diet.
Many people get hung up on carbs vs protein and ratios of each, etc.
If you simply focus on total calories consumed each day your fat loss
diet will be successful. A tip I use in setting up a fat loss diet, is
to do a Google search for "calories of common foods". Keep it simple
and chose low calorie foods that you enjoy and include them in your
fat loss diet.
How Many Meals Should You Aim for in Your Fat Loss Diet.
Again, people get obsessive about how many meals to eat each day.
Remember a good fat loss diet is about creating a calorie deficit, so
that should be your main focus. If you naturally like to eat many
meals throughout the day, then eat 5-6 times per day. If you do better
just eating 3-4 times per day, then setup your fat loss diet in that
manner. A good fat loss diet is flexible, since people differ in their
eating patterns. I do better if I stick to just 3 meals each day and I
have been very successful at losing body fat.
If You Get Hungry During Your Fat Loss Diet.
The hardest part of a fat loss diet is the first week or two. You will
get hungry. Some things that have helped me in the past is to eat a
Fuji Apple before a meal. The pectin seems to fill your stomach and it
doesn't take much food to feel "full". I also drink 2-3 cups of green
tea instead of snacking in between meals. The tea gives you energy, is
healthy, and is a natural appetite suppressant.
Stick with the basics and your fat loss diet will be
successful!
