People tend to overcomplicate losing fat. They think they need to go on a mega diet and cut out everything they enjoy. This just isn’t the case. Below are some top tips for you to focus on when you’re looking to lose fat and keep it off.

Fat loss tips 

Strength train – aim for 3-4 strength training sessions per week to reap the benefits and reach your desired goals. Add in some cardio, either liss or HIIT. Both are great; it depends on personal preference. 
Increase water intake – keeping hydrated is key. Our body is made up of 60% water, so we must drink a sufficient amount. It help support many functions in our body, such as the digestive system; it helps our bodies absorb nutrients and generally helps the body function more efficiently. 
Nutrition: Make sure the majority of your meals are well balanced and include quality protein, complex carbohydrates, good fats and micronutrients whilst enjoying some of the fun foods you like in moderation. If you are struggling with where to start, start by increasing protein intake, as this will keep you feeling fuller for longer and more satiated throughout the day. 
Focus on small daily habits – increase your step count, take the stairs instead of the lift; it’s the small changes and habits you stick to consistently that will make the difference. 
Sleep: Focus on good quality sleep. Good quality sleep helps regulate our ‘hunger hormones’, leptin and ghrelin. Lack of sleep causes these hormones to fluctuate resulting in cravings for sugary/salty foods or overeating. 
 
But most importantly, patience and consistency is the key. Very often, people give up at the first hurdle because they don’t see immediate results. Fat loss takes time, trust the process and focus on how you feel rather than how you look.
