THE EASIEST WAY TO DROP A DRESS SIZE

The Easiest way to drop a dress size…

Christmas has gone but is the weight still lingering around like a sore thumb, are you starting to worry that this year is going to be the same as last year and those extra few lbs you put on will stay and accumulate each year, are you sick of constant yo-yo dieting and your weight just increasing every time you finish?

I have helped many women in your position get in the best shape of their lives by advising them to use supplements like Leptoconnect, while getting levels of weight loss they didn’t think possible all while ‘not feeling like dieting’ throughout the whole process, I have helped women who have been a couple of months out of their wedding panicking that they will not fit into their dress only then to have to have it taken in a fair bit before their wedding day, I’ve helped women like you who have constantly, yo-yo dieted for 20+ years drop a lot of body fat and keep it off years after, while eating the dreaded FAT AND CARBS!

All the magazines lead us to believe that the next fancy diet coming out is the best thing since someone sliced bread, but this can’t be further from the truth… How can something that is new out be the next best thing? But this is the problem… we as humans want quick fixes and try jumping ship to ship, when the easiest and simple answer has always been staring us straight in the face and what has stood the test of time.

GOOD NUTRITION AND TRAINING.

This is by far the best way to drop 1,2,3 or as many dress sizes as you need all the while enjoying forbidden ‘naughty’ foods. Read on and I’ll give you some more tips to start dropping dress sizes for good.

TRAIN LIKE A’ MAN’.

Forget all that you have been doing or heard before, 1kg dumbbells for reps. will not work!

You want to save your hard earned muscle, so your body needs to know that you need it! Lift heavy weights 12,10’s,8 reps. etc and utilise compound moves that burn more calories and use multi joints (bench press, deadlift, shoulder press, squat, pull ups etc)

USE CARDIO WISELY.

Don’t be a ‘Cardio Bunny.’ Cardio has it’s place in any weight loss program but it shouldn’t be #1.As I said above, resistance training will be first for helping to drop the dress size and then incorporate HIIT and some cardio to help burn extra calories and for general fitness.

PORTION CONTROL.

Cutting out certain foods groups will not help you with your overall goal of looking and feeling better. It may give you results in the short term, but like many diets that cut out food groups, the weight is more likely to come back on with more in 2 out of 3 cases.

Instead, to make it easier for you and to start seeing weight loss almost instantly, just reduce your portion size -as calories are the number 1 reason why we have weight gain or loss, not Carbs or Fat.

The only reason this has got so much attention from certain diets is that you cut out one food group and don’t replace it, then you have a calorie restricted diet, but seriously how many people do you know who have tried these and failed? I personally know loads and a lot of my clients have done these types of diets with no success.

Little tips for portion control

- Know the serving sizes

- Use your hand for serving sizes

- Measure food

- Don’t let yourself starve

- Fill up on veg. and water

These are just a few tips that will help you reduce portion sizes, but there are plenty more and you need to find out what works for you.

INCREASE YOUR PROTEIN INTAKE

Once you have your calories and portion control set, then you need to be increasing your protein to around 1g per lbs of body weight… sound confusing? Don’t let it be… just add a palm + of protein per meal (3-4x a day) and you shouldn’t be too far off.

Protein has many benefits for the body and weight loss. It…

- builds and repairs muscles

- nails and hair are made from it!

- is an important building block of bones, muscles, cartilage, skin, and blood.

FOLLOW 80-20 RULE

80% of your daily intake is from minimally processed whole foods, this is to ‘hit’ all your nutrients and protein targets for health and then have your 20% foods which are ‘your’ foods or as people like to label them ‘Bad’ foods, however no food is bad. The only bad part is the portion! Eat too much and put weight on.

This is the part you need to be careful with, as you can ruin your whole week’s deficit by going mental on 1 day! A good place to start is to turn your body weight into lbs and have that in calories as ‘your’ foods, then test and adjust as you go.

Just remember nearly everything that goes into your mouth has calories, so be aware of drinks, oils etc. Have most of your daily fluid intake from water to help with calorie control.

Other little tricks to help you on your way are :

- Stay active during the day and don’t have extended periods of sitting.

- Do a minimum of 10000 steps per day

- Have a good nights sleep

- De-stress.

Following all the points above will help you drop at least a dress size with out the feeling of dieting, set habits and lifestyle changes and then you open the door to staying slim all year round.
