Hello all, enjoying this free for all thread.
I've been working on fat loss for months and finally have a place to write out what I've found to work
1. Cut out all the sweets, cakes, alcohol, chips, etc from your diet for one week. Everything else stays the same. Just don't eat that stuff for 7 days. This will train discipline later on when shit gets hard
1a. Start walking at least 10 mins each day. Step counts don't really matter. Just set a timer or something and at some point during the day take 10 mins to walk.
2. After that first week, use a calorie tracking app (chonometer is great) and track everything you eat, doesn't matter what or how much, for 2 weeks. This will train you to pay attention to what you're eating.
Now the hard part
3. Take the avg/day for what you ate those two weeks and cut it by 200/day and increase your time walking (or running if you're more advanced) by 5-10 minutes. Whatever your body can handle for another 2 weeks
3a. Incorporate more beans, frozen veg, fruits, and poultry in your diet so you're not hungry
4. Drop another 100 calories/day, so 300 total and get yourself up to 30 mins of walking/running a day and continue this for....as long as you can. At least 3 months. You should be losing at least a 1lb a week.
