3 TIPS TO LOSE WEIGHT (FAT)

8/7/2014

There's no shortcuts to weight loss, some people lose weight just by taking the stairs everyday and some change their entire lifestyle, but at the end of the day if you can create a calorie deficit on a daily basis, simply put it if your activity outweigh what you consume, lets not go in depth on how different food secretes different type of hormones that increase fat burning blah blah blah.

This 3 tips can be practice year round that have work for me in keeping a healthy weight and maintaining my muscle mass ( this my friend is very important) once you start lifting weight your body becomes a furnace, it burns more fats throughout the day even when your not doing anything, your muscles are helping you burn your fats.

Drink water

Drink when your thirsty, drink a gallon a day, whatever work for you just make sure you drink up, it keep you full, helps you with your digestion and your body is mainly made up of water.

keep a food log

Every month i would do a food log sheet and save it on my desktop and at night before i sleep i would type every single thing that went in my mouth, some days i would notice that i have eaten more than required some days i could do with more food, therefore writing it down and seeing exactly what i eat help with making tomorrow better and being more cautious with what i am allergic too.

pack snacks with you (photo credit)

I am never hungry because i travel with snacks every where i go! i have a protein bar and a bag of nuts , if i have a little more time i would pack some eggs with me! but the idea of having a snack is never keeping your body from starvation because you would eat way more during your next meal to fill the void, never deprive yourself from food, listen to your body if its hungry, feed it even if its 10pm i would eat nuts, yes its calories but i care for my well being and i never want to be HANGRY(angry because i am hungry)

Hi there.just FYI.
Protein bars are not very healthy as they contain artificial ingredients and some also have lots of sugar. Eggs also should be eaten as a whole and if possible raw so that you get an antioxidant called glutathione. Salmonella risks are very low and egg yolks do not actually increase cholesterol levels. The only side effects of eating raw eggs is possibly bad gas lol!

Hi there Xyber, i agree with you, i did not suggest protein bar, but i am only sharing what i bring with me, due to my hectic schedule,sometimes i don't even have time to eat, truth be told, there are many things that not even naturally these days, like chicken are genetically modified or cultivated at such an unnatural way, sometimes it makes me wonder is there anything that taste like they once tasted 10-20 years ago with the growing population of supply and demand.
As long as you have a good source for (fresh organic eggs,) you need not worry about salmonella if you choose to eat them raw but how many of us can afford organic eggs? let alone high quality eggs, usually we would picked the cheapest of the lot, i'm talking about general population, i am very fussy with the type of egg.
You can tell the eggs are free range by the colour of the egg yolk. Foraged hens produce eggs with bright orange yolks. Dull, pale yellow yolks are a sure sign you're getting eggs form caged hens that are not allowed to forage for their natural diet. i don't think i've mentioned about them increasing cholesterol level, i am aware it doesn't. thank you for reading my blog and i am glad to receive a comment from you :_

Thanks for the extra info,though I already know why the yolks I ate are bright yellow. Guess now I know why I have bad gas but oh wells that's what you get for being cheapskate!
BTW I wonder why you don't get much comments here. Don't you have readers since you're hot stuff? 😂

Haha I have a pretty good readership stats but hey I hope people are not reading my stuff just for the way I look ! But as we know people are less expressiveness when it comes to opinion unless they harbour ill feelings against you.
