Struggling to lose weight? Has weight not come off, even though you are cutting calories? Are you finding it difficult to stick to a diet because you are always hungry?
In my experience, this is usually because you are NOT eating enough food. Let that sink in.
Most people who come to me wanting to lose weight have either cut a whole nutrient out of their diet, or have limited themselves to what is equivalent to the “grilled chicken and broccoli” diet. Not sustainable, not enjoyable so it doesn’t last. Causing the person to snowball back into old habits and gaining all weight back and sometimes gaining more. Which then starts the whole cycle over.
This isn’t the persons fault, there is a ton of “fast diets” and “lose 20lbs in 3 days” diets available on the internet. Only makes sense that with all the information out there, good and bad, things get harder to understand and use.
It’s much more than burning more calories than what you eat. That’s the first step. On paper that makes total sense. You also have to make sure you eat enough for your body to keep functioning in a healthy way. Not eating enough calories will make your body think it’s starving, and it will store the food you eat. Long story short, this will keep you from your weight loss goal.
