Eat less.
I know that that'll sound like a smart ass/asshole answer, and I know that I posted stand-up comedy, but it's the truth. Portion control is the golden ticket. Instead of eating 4-8 eggs, eat 2 or 3. Instead of 2 potatoes, have 1. Instead of a pound of meat, have half or a quarter of a pound. Instead of a cup of rice, have half a cup. You can literally eat the same food...just eat less of it.
Who the fuck eats 4-8 eggs.
Working day, all pre-prepped Sunday afternoon:
Breakfast: 3 large boiled eggs w/tahini sauce, and sriracha.
Lunch: Rump steak (strips), stir fried w/ broccoli, chow mien sauce, small serving instant jasmine rice.
Dinner: shredded chicken breast, cauliflower mash, pre made red wine gravy, leftover broccoli.
Snack/dessert: 0% fat Greek yogurt, chia seeds, strawberries, honey.
Weekend:
Breakfast: Garlic infused 0% Greek yogurt, two poached eggs, chili butter drizzle, pumpkin seed toast.
Lunch: Grilled salmon fillet, cauliflower mash, roasted brussels sprouts, chimichurri.
Dinner: Shredded chicken & shrimp paella, peas, sundried tomatoes.
Dessert: lemon sorbet
Track your calories. Accountability and discipline are what you need.
Yep just eat less. BTW why can't I ented the dieting loggs section of the forum. I wanna make a log.
#1 I gotta do is throw out candy/chocolate and adding sugar like to coffee.
Use an app. Track what you eat. Figure out what your TDEE is and eat below it. It isn't magic. It just takes time. Fast massive weight loss isn't sustainable. You need to make lifestyle changes and learn how to look at portions. You still want to enjoy your life.
No need for fancy tricks; just limit carb intake to less than 100 a day. Wakeup and do cardio before work. Train/Strength+Conditioning afternoon session; and try to intermittent fast for 16-18 hours, plenty of water, sugar free drinks help. NO ALCOHOL. Guarantee you lose 20lbs a month easy of FAT.
I'm not into counting calories and it's impossible if you have to eat out a lot and eat diverse meals cause of circumstances
Plus I don't enjoy it at all
