So it’s after the Holidays and I’m willing to bet that you’ve made some weight loss resolutions for 2011. I’m also willing
to bet that you have some kind of game plan in your head as to how you are going to achieve this. Stop! Before you make any ridiculous plans to go on any kind of Hollywood diet, lets keep things realistic. This time instead of going for the ten pound loss in 2 weeks, shoot for the steady weight loss. This is safer, effective and the results last. Did you know that over 90% of people that go on a diet will gain the weight that they lost back? Did you know that odds are that those same people will also gain more weight back then they lost? That can be pretty discouraging when you’re not educated. Now for those of you reading this blog, you are not going to be discouraged, because you know that by losing about 2 lbs a week, you will be losing mostly fat and maintaining your muscle. By maintaining your muscle mass, you will keep your metabolism revving. Remember, you didn’t gain the weight in two weeks and you will not lose it in two weeks, but as long as you are consistent, you will lose weight safely and effectively. In turn you will not fall into that percentage that gains your weight back. Remember it’s like math. No matter how many times you move the numbers around, it’s still the same system. Eat clean, 5-6 times a day, weight train 3-4 times a week, and get in your cardio 3-6 times a week and you will NEVER fail in your weight loss goals. Remember, even if you can only get in 30min of training 5 times a week, that is better than training for 2 hours one day a week. Be smart, be consistent, and you will succeed!
