Fat loss doesn’t have to mean eating tiny meals and feeling hungry all day.
Yes, losing body fat requires you to consume fewer calories than you use.
But how you use those calories can make the process much easier.
Start by looking at what’s actually on your plate.
Include a good source of protein with your main meals.
Add plenty of fruit and vegetables to give you more food volume for your calories.
Then pay attention to the things that are easy to overlook.
Cooking oils, sauces, drinks, snacks and little extras can add hundreds of calories without doing much to keep you full.
You don’t necessarily need a smaller plate.
You may just need to make different choices with what goes on it.
A fat-loss diet should still leave you eating proper meals, enjoying your food and having enough energy to get on with your day.
Which catches you out most, snacks, sauces, drinks or portion sizes?
