High Reps or Low Reps for Fat Loss?

Food Really Does Matter

Fat loss is dependent on what we feed our bodies.  You can work out “til the cows come home”, but if you are not leading a healthy eating lifestyle, then you won’t see the fat loss you desire.  It is important to keep track of everything you eat.  This can be a real pain for some people, but I assure you that you will see the results if you keep a daily food journal.  myfitnesspal.com is a great place to help you do this.  You can track your food, exercise and find articles and help through their community.

Be sure to eat a clean diet

A clean diet consists of foods that are single ingredient or that have not been processed in any way.  Homemade No Bean Turkey Chili is far different than opening a can of pre-made turkey chili.  When you prepare meals from fresh, single ingredient foods you know exactly what you are putting in your body.  If you can’t pronounce it, don’t eat it. If you eat cleanly, you will notice a great drop in weight within the first week and steady weight loss from there which should help to keep you motivated.  It is wise to also cut out sugar, caffeine and any artificial sweeteners or products you use with your meals.

Calories In vs Calories Out

I am sure you have heard this so many times, but what does it really mean?  If you eat more calories than you expend/burn then you will gain weight, if you consume less calories than you expend, then you will lose weight and lastly if the calories you consume are equal the calories you burn then your weight will remain stable.
