The following 5 steps are all you really need when it comes to dieting, these are the foundations of a solid lifestyle.

1) Get A Basic Grasp On Your Calorie Intake

2) Know When To Increase Protein

3) Snack On Protein Rich Food

4) The Tubs Of Success

5) Take A Break Every Sunday

We will now run through some of these rules in more depth to help you get the most from them. The first of which revolves around simply understanding a little bit about the calories you eat. No, you do not need to watch every single calorie or skip your favorite meals. That’s actually a bad way to diet. When you are dieting effectively you shouldn’t even feel like you are dieting. You must operate at a calorie deficit, meaning eat less per day than you do now, that’s a solid start.

When we diet we tend to hear all kinds of bad things about carbohydrates and therefore we like to cut down the number of carbs we eat. That’s fine, it will help your progress, but you need to do it correctly. Don’t just drop all the carbs from your diet. Cut down if you want but ensure you still get some in your system every day and ensure you increase your protein intake, too.

After five years of working in my gym I can comfortably say that snacking is the number one enemy of a dieter. I have lost count of how many times I’ve heard the stories of a perfectly laid out diet plan going to waste because of a stressful day at work.

Protein has the least impact on fat storage, so if you want a snack it makes sense to shoot for a piece of chicken, tuna or even a protein sports supplement. Take a few small snack tubs alongside your packed lunch and stock them with some protein rich choices for you throughout the day. Never again will you see your reflection in the vending machine glass. You’ll also store considerably less body fat by snacking with protein instead of carbohydrates or fats, so these two rules yield great returns particularly for those who work in offices.

The final rule is the most important of all. Taking a day off may seem like nonsense but it is actually the rule which people are most thankful for when they reach their results. It enables them to eat whatever they want for one day per week and still get results, removing the whole feeling of punishment which is generally associated with trying to get healthy.

So if you fall into the group of people desperately trying to figure out how to lose weight effectively you now have a strong foothold to get moving from. If you’re trying to learn how to build muscle we’ll have another post for you coming up soon.
