* Working at a calorie deficit is the basic rule to adhere to.

Work at cutting your daily intake of calories by about two hundred per day until you reach your target, rather than dropping your intake in half suddenly. This small step approach actually yields better results for you. Drop by no more than 200 per day til you hit your goal per day then maintain it from there. By eating less calories, you will lose weight. Particularly if you do it this way and apply the following steps on top of this one.

* 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.

* Go with protein snacks, not carbs.

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.

* Use our tubs approach.

Easily the top diet tip of many trainers, this simple technique is sworn by in our gym. Carrying small tubs in your rucksack with you to work, each container filled with a light and healthy snack of around 50 to 100 kcals will allow you to beat the one issue which brings most people off their diet. Picture it, you are half way through a hard shift at work with no food and the vending machine is calling your name.. We have all been there. This step nullifies this action completely.

* 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.

Each step is tested and approved by fitness professionals. Better still, each step is free. If you are genuinely looking for a better understanding on how to lose weight and keep it off forever you just found it in this article and video. Now it is time to make the most of it.
