You can still eat cheese and lose weight.
You can still eat that chocolate and lose weight.
Looking at your calories in vs your calories out will help you lose weight.
This can mean eating chocolate, cheese and drinking alcohol if that makes you happy but knowing that these products tend to be higher calories than actual meals such as meat/fish, vegetables and carbs, where the food quantity is greater than a bit of cheese or chocolate but is more filling and creates a balance with your hormones.
Sometimes in order to reach the weight loss goal we want, we may have to take away these higher calorie foods in order to eat more of the lower calorie foods such as salads and proteins but this is never long term and its never for the rest of your life. You can tailor what foods you want, need that fits in with your macros and calories.
If you need any help with your Weight loss goals or are confused by what to do, please get in touch.
I work with clients who want to keep in the things they love, socialising with friends at the pub, eating deserts, but I help them create new habits and help them understand what needs to be done or how it feels.
The main things to remember is:
- Eat double the protein in every meal, including breakfast, lunch and dinner
- Increase your daily movements e.g. walking
- Increase your water intake
- Improve your sleep quality and habits
- Increase strength or muscle mass if this is your goal, which enables you to be able to eat more and still lose weight.
