4 Most Important Things To Know About Weight Loss

Important thing to know about

People love to overcomplicate the concept of weight loss, but it’s actually quite simple.

Here are the 4 most important things you need to know about weight loss, in order for you to execute successfully:

  1. Calories in MUST be < Calories Out: I don’t care how “healthy” the food is that you’re eating… if you’re taking in more than you’re expending, you will not lose weight.
  2. Nutrition is a better tool than Exercise: exercise is extremely important, for many reasons…but if you only focus on movement & are reluctant to focus on nutrition, you will not be successful in the long run.
  3. It’s Not a “diet”, It’s a Lifestyle Change: don’t roll your eyes… this is something you must truly accept, if you wish to lose weight and keep it off. You cannot keep doing the same things and uphold the same habits if you wish for the result to be different. You must build a NEW version of you.

Weight Loss is NOT Linear: do not expect to lose ½ lb to 1lb every day, or even every single week… instead of a linear process like sledding down a hill, weight loss is more like going on a ride over rolling hills. There will be dips, spikes, and plateaus in your weight along the journey… do NOT let that stop you… weight loss takes time. Just keep going.
