Weight Loss: The Not-So-Secret Formula

Losing weight.... It's almost time for New Year's Resolutions! Half of the country will be trying to lose weight, get healthy, get fit, and be more active. I, myself, have not really set a resolution, but have made up my mind to set a better example to those around me, of a healthy life style(no  one keeps their resolutions anyways). I have decided to share my "Top Secret" formula for losing weight. With this "Secret" I have been able to assist several people lose up to 35 lbs. 

Wanna know what it is??? 

Go into a caloric debt. That's the secret, that's not really a secret. It is super simple. Think of your house hold income. If you make, $2000 per month, with $1700 per month expenses, you can save $300 a month, which over time could build a healthy savings account. Although if your expenses are greater than your income, you begin to accrue some debt. Right? I know, super simple stuff. 

Guess what!! Losing weight can be just as easy. You don't have to spend 3 hours on a treadmill a day. You don't have to take some special supplement. You don't have to go on some fad diet that you will fail to follow by day 3. 

Each of us have what's called a BMR, or Basal Metabolic Rate. That's the number of calories your body will burn at rest. Then when you add your calories burned through your daily activity, you will know how many calories you need to consume per day to maintain your current weight. 

You can calculate your BMR and Caloric Requirements here: http://www.bmi-calculator.net/bmr-calculator/

Each pound of fat is worth 3500 calories. So if we divide that by 7 days per week(500 calories), and subtract that from our daily caloric need. we know how many calories we need to consume to lose 1lb per week. 

Honestly, exercise isn't necessary, but I strongly advise it. It makes weight loss a whole lot easier. 

You don't have to focus on tons of cardio either, add some strength training. Muscle burns fat, so the more you have, the easier it is to lose the flab.

So, for all of you New Year's Resolutioners out there: Make this one count. There's no limit to the ability of a Champion. A Champion, never quit's and never gives in. 

Happy Fat Shredding!!
