Lose weight fast!
In this article you will learn if you can lose weight fast.
This is a promise made often by companies saying “lose 20 pounds in 20 days”, which in reality is an empty promise. We say its an empty promise because if achieved you are mainly losing water weight, muscle mass (very important for daily activities, bone density etc) and a little bit of body fat (subcutaneous instead of visceral). It is not a healthy approach and doesn’t help establish any habits that will stick with you for the months ahead. This results in you gaining back the 20 pounds and usually more. We call this a classic Yo-Yo diet.
Don’t be a Yo-Yo!!
The healthiest weight loss is to see a consistent 1-2 pound weight loss per week through a combination of eating healthfully, daily exercise and rest.
Below are tips for weight lose:
💪 Get 7-8 hours of sleep each night.
💪 Drink water throughout the day to stay hydrated.
💪 Have a negative calorie intake vs the calories you expend throughout your day.
💪 Eliminate refined sugars (pop, white breads, white rice, pastas).
💪 Increase protein intake to make you feel full and are less calories.
💪 Eat a high fibre diet to fill you up and help with healthy digestion and cholesterol levels.
💪 Lightweights to maintain and build lean muscle.
