You will achieve amazing weight loss results when you burn off calories.
So what in the world is a caloric deficit? Glad you asked.
It is simply burning off more calories than you take in. It is the method of calories in vs calories out.
To have long-term success you need to do this every day to maintain a healthy weight.
Here are 4 tips to do just that.
1. Determine Daily Caloric Deficit - If your goal is 500 calories then you need to workout to burn off 250 calories and eat 250 less calories than normal. Once you figure out your golden number then you will be one step closer to amazing weight loss.
500 calories a day is a good goal to shoot for since a pound of fat is about 3,500 extra calories. That means you can lose at least one pound a week. Obviously if you want to lose more than one pound a week you would increase your numbers.
2. Eat Less - You are probably rolling your eyes and saying duh. But to create a calories in vs calories out scenario that will work in your favor you need to eat less.
What you put in your mouth will determine your success just as much as what you do in the gym. Visualize yourself at your ideal weight and remember that anytime you are tempted to overeat. Step away from the cake and nobody gets hurt!
3. Count Your Calories - Counting calories is essential to creating a caloric deficit. If you don't count your calories how in the world will you know how many you take in on any given day?
4. Exercise - Exercise is a great way to burn off calories. As you sweat and get your heart rate up you will get results. The key is to getting your heart rate up. Walking is good to start with but eventually you need to move on bigger and better things.
The more your heart rate gets up the faster your metabolism will go which in turn burns more fat. The more fat you burn the healthier you become.
Tip the scale in your favor when you create a caloric deficit. Do it every day don't just do it every once in a while. Be
consistent and continue to reap the rewards of your efforts. Burn off calories that are not wanted and get amazing weight loss.
