Lower your daily calorie intake.

I am all about counting chemicals more than calories however I did need to go into a calorie deficit for me to lose the extra weight. I still don’t really care so much when it comes to calories on things but they are important to know and it’s important to stay within range of your number. Personally, something could be high calorie but if it satisfies my craving.. I’m all for it. If I go a different route and avoid my original craving then I end up consuming more calories trying to find something to satisfy it.

Higher protein intake.

I doubled my protein intake. Protein helps tame your hungry hormone and protein helps you feel fuller longer. Building more muscle is important because your body will begin to burn more calories while you are resting. Muscles and many hormones are, in fact, made up of protein. I shoot for 20g- 30g protein with every meal.

Balance and consistency.

Here is the video of things that I did when I first wanted to lose weight. Two minutes in the video I talk about the steps I listed. I lost 30/35lbs (give or take my 5lbs of water weight). I still do them when I want to cut weight and to maintain.

Fats and carbohydrates may supply the body with energy. Protein helps regulate the release of that power. So a good balance of protein, fats and carbs gives you a good functioning system. 

“Balance in everything and anything because too much of anything or too little of anything is not good.”
