You have to be careful when choose to eat less and workout more though. (I'm willing to say the majority of people who say they want to lose weight, are actually looking to burn fat.) What's the difference? I'll answer that with a question of my own: would you rather see the number on the scale go down or would rather your clothes fit/feel better? If you chose the clothes option, you want to burn fat. And doing both (depending on the type of workouts you do) may take you from just losing weight to actually burning fat also. Do Both: this is one of those instances where burning the candle on both ends is a good thing.Going to the gym for an hour a day and spending the rest of your awake time on your butt probably isn't going to help your cause. It also means be more active in your regular life outside the gym. That means get more total workouts and also more intense workouts in gym. The point here is for you to be more active. Yeah I know you have an Apple watch and a phone app that tell you how many calories you burned during Zumba. The reason being because it's almost impossible to know how many calories you're burning during a workout without being in a laboratory setting. I swear though it's a phrase that get thrown around. Workout/Exercise more: ever heard the phrase you can't out train a bad diet? You're not a gym geek so probably not.Food quality matters in that eating high quality, nutrient dense foods (think fruits, veggies, lean proteins & good fats) will allow you to fill fuller after eating less total calories.
I know I said food quality doesn't matter but I lied.kind of. Make a meal plan and stick as close to it as possible. Actually you have all of the (physical) control when it comes to this. It's the most important because it is the one you have the most control over. Eat less: this is going to be the most important variable.So if you want to lose weight (if you want to gain weight, just do the opposite), are three ways you can do that: eat less, workout/exercise more or do both eat less & workout more. If you want to change your weight you must follow this formula. It has nothing to do with food quality or anything else that isn't calories. If you want to gain weight do the opposite. In words it says if you want to lose weight, you have to burn more calories than you consume. Ladies and gents that is the shockingly simple math of weight management. It goes like this:Ĭalories In > Calories Out → surplus = weight gainĬalories In = Calories Out = weight maintenanceĬalories In < Calories Out → deficit= weight loss The math comes in the form of a little addition and subtraction. Don't worry, the math is only slightly more complex than the math I used to figure out how many more Mondays there are in 2018. In order to do so, there is some math required though. Did you know there are 8 Mondays left in 2018 (including today)? That means at a conservative estimate you could still lose 8-10lbs in 2018.
