Are you ready to begin? If so, read on....

* Use a calorie deficit to get started.

This means you must consume less calories overall in a day than you do at the minute. Don't cut your intake by a drastic amount, just work at this bit by bit because a drastic cut can have negative results. That's why extreme celeb weight loss plans don't work long term. Cut 200 cals per day until you hit your target daily intake then keep it there.

* You will need more protein when dieting.

Even if you are not concerned with getting muscular you don't want to be losing muscle. Lose the bad weight, i.e. fat, not the good weight. Your body's natural reaction to you eating less fat and carbs is to look to burn muscle instead. Kill this and force it to hang onto your muscle by consuming more protein when dieting.

* Protein is the perfect snack for burning fat.

If you are going to snack between meals you'll give yourself a massive weight loss advantage by snacking on protein instead of carbs or fat. Why? Snack on carbs and fats and you will more than likely store a lot of fat, whereas protein has the least impact on the fat storage system of the three macronutrients in food.

* Carry healthy snack pots in your back pack every day.

When you are at work with no healthy food in sight and a long shift still ahead of you this is the moment you are most likely to crack and search out instant energy, sugar filled foods which will wreak hell on your dieting results. Carry a few small snack pots with you to work. Make sure each tub is not large enough to fit anything more than a 50 or 100 calorie snack into it and you'll see why so many people quote this steps as their secret weight loss formula.

* Don't cut out your favorite junk foods while dieting.

Cutting your favorite junk foods is a bad move when on any diet. Why? Because it leads you to fall off the rails and quit after a few weeks. Enjoy one day per week where you literally don't count your food and eat how you want. You will put on some bad weight here for sure, but overall it will help you to stick to your goal far longer.

These simple, time proven tricks have the backing of professional athletes and trainers alike. Apply them to your current regime and you will have your mind blown by the possibilities you unlock. If you are serious about building a better physique and figuring out how to lose weight properly, you can begin today.
