The Three Biggest Fast Weight Loss Secrets

By Howe Russ

As a Fitness Instructor, I am asked at least five times per day how to lose weight fast and keep it off. When it comes to losing fat there are three very easy to follow rules which will multiply your results in no time at all and today I'll share them with you.

We see too many people sucked into flavor of the month celebrity diets every month, struggling along with a diet which resembles a self-punishment regime and getting no results.

The three points we share today are facts. When you begin applying them to your current regime you will see a significant improvement no matter what level of exercise you are doing. Combine these with a solid workout plan and your results will be even faster. Time to get started.

Fact Number One: It's Important To Utilize A Calorie Deficit.

A calorie deficit sounds more complicated than it actually is. For the next five days record everything you eat in a little food journal and write down your average daily calorie total. In order to get fat loss results you simply need to operate at a lower level of calories per day.

Don't drop it too much too fast, however, as this will encourage starvation mode where your body hangs onto food because it doesn't know when it is next being fed. Ever known a friend who seemed to starve themselves and STILL couldn't lose weight? That's exactly why.

Having established your current calorie total per day and set a new lower target for yourself, you can begin making the journey there. If it's a big jump simply cut down your calories by 10 percent each week until you reach your goal. This is way better than one sudden shock jump, and remember the golden rule, you should never go under a thousand calories per day under any circumstances.

Step Two: Increase Your Protein.

If you cut down your carbohydrates as part of your diet you must also increase your protein intake or your body will begin simply burning muscle, not fat. If you're making the effort to get to the gym and put in a good workout you want to ensure your body is burning the stuff you actually want to lose, right? This is achieved by simply upping your daily protein intake whenever you reduce carbohydrates.

Fact Number Three: Snacking On Protein Reduces Fat Considerably.

Ask anybody what their biggest weakness is when it comes to diets and they will tell you it's snacking on sugary, simple carbohydrate foods and junk food such as crisps and chocolate. A little known fact is that from the three macro nutrients protein, carbohydrates and fat, protein actually has the least effect on your body's fat storage cells.

Whether it's a protein shake, chicken, turkey or anything else, the fact remains is will help your fat loss goal exceptionally.

These rules are all proven beyond any doubt. If you look at the best diet plan you will see they are the foundations of which it is set. If you have been trying to figure out how to lose weight fast and have been getting misled by quick fix gimmicks or miracle pill solutions, these three rules will help you to finally get some real and lasting results
