Bottom line, though: your body needs a certain amount of fat. Your body needs fat. Your brain needs fat. Not too much, but the right amount. Burning too many lipids, too fast? Extreme prolonged calorie deficit? That can cause more problems than it solves.
The trick is to maintain a safe small calorie deficit over a prolonged time, to allow the body to adjust and to prevent problems caused by starvation. Also, denying yourself from EVER eating something is a recipe for failure.
-DO add exercise in. Not going bananas, don’t seek to be the next American Ninja Warrior. If you injure yourself, you’re out for a while.
But exercise isn’t primarily for fat loss, the goal is to improve your overall heath and extend your life. It also reduces stress, and some people comfort themselves with food.
As an aside, sit ups don’t burn fat, they build muscle. Same with planks.
I would add fast daily walks, short jogs, and begin basic strength training every other day if you’ve never exercised.
-Do limit certain foods, but DON’T try and totally deny yourself treats. It’s going to be easier to make a small change, sustain it, add another small change, and so on. Cut back from two glasses of wine, to one. Have dessert on one or two nights a week, not every night. Limit sodas to special occasions.
Make sure your plate is 3/4 vegetables, and 1/4 lean protein. Allow yourself small indulgences, but don’t binge.
The minute you deny yourself something, that’s going to be what you crave. And that can be your waterloo.
The diet and weight loss industry is not set up to have you successfully lose weight. They want lifetime customers. People who keep weight off don’t buy more Atkins (tm) brand food, or go back to SlimFast.
-Ignore fads. Some people are gluten free because they are allergic or intolerant. Don’t go gluten free to be slimmer. You actually do well with a little gluten, if you can. Whole grains are better. Or, if you can’t have gluten (allergy?) go for rice, quinoa, things such as that.
-Don’t expect a six pack. Realistically, most people don’t have them. People who do well in the fitness industry and end up fitness models, fitness experts…have a genetic predisposition to look and be that way. Just like some people are better artists, some people are better fit people. But you CAN come close, and you CAN be healthier.
-Throw out your scale. Seriously. Let your doctor weigh you, and worry about numbers. If you pants get tight, you’re gaining and need to adjust. If they get loose? You’re doing well.
-online trackers like SparkPeople allow you to track exercise and calorie intake, as well as provide communities to share. Weight Watchers isn’t so bad, either. It helps to have contact with others going through the same thing,
Finally: It’s going to be hard. You gain in certain areas, but you lose it all over your body at the same rate. Don’t beat yourself up if it takes some time, and do find ways to relax and take care of yourself, even pamper yourself through the process.
