For the vast majority of people, figuring out how to lose weight is like rocket science. The truth is it needn't be. We live in an age where people crave instant results to the point where they actually get nowhere at all.
Despite the often over complicated plans out there which lead nowhere fast, you can see that the simple basics of a diet still work tremendously well.
No matter how many people try to tell you otherwise, fat loss is not difficult. It's marketing 101. It is far easier to sell a new product to someone if you make them feel like they need it, they cannot succeed without it. This is why the world of diet is often needlessly over complicated.
Before you try any products or tried jumping into the finer details of nutrition you need to lay down the basics.
If you overlook the basic rules and over complicate things too quickly you will notice that you are constantly obsessing over unimportant aspects and overlooking the things which actually work. Start by eating less food.
You should also look to establish a good routine when it comes to your split of protein, carbohydrates and fats. The majority of us on a bad diet get way too many carbs and fats each day, yet the majority of us dieting have been brainwashed into thinking they need to cut out fats and carbs completely.
A proven split such as the 4-4-2 system, which comprises of 40% carbohydrates, 40% protein and 20% fats, is a great system to use.
It is also shown that when you snack you could do a lot worse than choosing protein as your macro nutrient of choice. The next time you feel peckish at work try to attack a food high in protein content rather than the quick carb, bad fats associated with junk food.
Be sure to also enjoy a day off your diet every week. Designate one day per week, call it a 'cheat day' if you wish, and simply enjoy it. There is a difference between enjoying your favorite foods and binge eating, of course, and this is something you will learn quickly. This little trick will eliminate the issue of craving junk food entirely.
The next time a friend asks you for tips on how to lose weight you know what to tell them now. Implement these tips and you will see results whether it's fat loss you want or even learning how to build muscle.
