9 things you should know about fat loss⁣

⁣

1. You can eat healthy & still not lose fat. ⁣

The type of food matters for health, but you can still eat too many calories of the healthiest foods! Quantity matters.⁣

⁣

2. Fat loss occurs in a calorie deficit.⁣

Any diet that leads to fat loss is creating a calorie deficit. Burning more calories than being consumed. Doesn’t matter if it’s keto, intermittent fasting, carnivore diet, whatever it is, find what is sustainable for YOU.⁣

⁣

3. Your daily habits define your long term success.⁣

If you want to lose fat & keep it off FOREVER, this requires obtaining habits that lead to lifelong dedication to eating, training, & living in a way that leads to better health and being leaner.⁣

⁣

4. Cardio isn’t required to lose fat.⁣

That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do it. But you don’t have to do hours of cardio. Most people over do it. Adhere to a strength training plan & add some walking. That should be plenty. ⁣

⁣

5. Weight loss & fat loss aren’t always the same.⁣

We can lose body fat & the scale may not change much. We can lose weight & our bodies may not look much different. This is why strength training & adequate protein is important. & another reason why the scale should only be ONE tool to measure progress, not the only one.⁣

⁣

6. Starvation mode doesn’t exist.⁣

Metabolic adaptation can occur. But you aren’t holding on to body fat from under eating. It’s just harder to lose fat as calories get lower & as you get leaner. If you’re not losing on low calories, it’s probably a sign you’re not in a place to diet right now.⁣

⁣

7. Bites, licks, & tastes add up fast.⁣

Taking a bite of your kid’s meal you are cooking. Taking a handful of m&m’s. Just a couple sips of that wine. All those calories can quickly add up. Pay attention.⁣

⁣

8. Fat loss takes time.⁣

It’s MONTHS and YEARS. Not days and weeks. You can lose weight in days or weeks, but don’t expect to maintain those results.⁣

⁣

9. The biggest transformation happens in your head.⁣

Until you have the proper mindset when it comes to the fat loss process, it will always be a struggle. Work on your mindset, on loving your body through every stage, & don’t chase destination happiness!
