People ask me every day for tips on how to lose weight fast so today our article is going to focus on three simple yet effective tips which are guaranteed to get you results both in and out of the gym.

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.


Fitness Instructor Russ Howe PTI details how to lose weight fast and efficiently.



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.

The First Rule: 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.

The key, however, is in gradually reducing the calorie target each day rather than suddenly jumping head first. Doing this will avoid starvation mode, where your body clings to food as much as it can because it thinks you are starving it. This is why some people seemingly eat nothing and still cannot lose any size.

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.

Fact Number Two: When Carbohydrates Come Down, Protein Goes Up.

These days it is a popular choice to cut down carbohydrates when trying to lose weight but there is one thing you must do otherwise it defeats the whole objective. Eat more protein. If you chop your carbohydrate intake down your body loses it's primary energy source during exercise. It's left with a choice between using fat or muscle for fuel and 90% of the time it's choosing the muscle and you're losing weight but not fat. Increase your protein intake whenever you cut down carbohydrates.

Fact Number Three: Snacking On Protein Reduces Fat Considerably.

Snacking is the biggest temptation when trying to lose weight and the solution is to use protein rich foods. Not only is this better for your body than sugary, fatty food but it is also proven to have a massively reduced level of fat storage within your body.

The next time you fancy a snack try chicken or tuna. It will keep you feeling full and your results will go through the roof.

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.
