Fat Loss Mistakes
When trying to lose fat, there are several, easy mistakes almost everyone makes. If you are looking to lose fat, avoid making any of the mistakes listed below. Losing fat is not difficult, it just takes time and commitment.
- Too much too soon. Fat loss takes time, you can't rush it, plain and simple. If you try to lose too much in a short period of time, you will fail, get discourage, and probably stop your diet. A planned diet should be at minimum, 12 weeks.
- Eating carbs later in the day. You should not consume any carbs in the second half of your day. For example, if you get up at 8:00AM, stop eating carbs at 4:00pm.
- Not taking time to prepare meals. If you are going to diet, do it right. Plan you meals for the following day, the night before. If you need to cook anything, have it ready. If you don't prepare, you may end up eating whatever is available, which is usually fattening.
- Not exercising regularly. You need to exercise to burn fat. I suggest doing some type of cardio, 30 minutes a day, 4 times a week. This can include walking, biking, running, swimming, etc. For best results, exercise in the morning, on an empty stomach.
- Relying too much on supplements/drugs. Supplements/drugs are not magic, you need a diet and exercise in order for them to work. Don't increase dosages if they don't seem to be working.
- Not weight training. Weight training only makes you look and feel better, it also increases your metabolism, to help burn more fat. A basic 3 day a week program will work fine.
- Not eating enough protein. Protein builds muscle, period.
- Doing the same thing over and over again. If you don't switch up your exercises, you will get tired of it, and probably quit exercising and dieting all together. Not only that, but the body will adapt to what you are doing, and you will not see any results.
- Paying too much attention to the scale. Don't even look at the scale, it will frustrate you. If you are weight training, and increasing muscle mass, you may not be dropping in weight, but you will be dropping fat.
- Giving up. Whatever you do, don't give up. You will regret it, a couple months down the road. If you are frustrated and not losing weight, try something different, try and make it fun.
