How to Lose Weight Fast - The Secrets

By Richard Adams

The biggest challenge in terms of how to lose weight fast is having the discipline that such a process requires.

Losing weight over a long period of time isn't too difficult. Naturally you will lose more weight some weeks than others but over the months you will see a general downward trend in your body weight and fat reserves.

The odd snack or missed exercise session due to bad weather, tiredness or just plain laziness isn't the end of the world looking at weight loss over the long term. So long as you get back up again and get on with things at the next available opportunity you should be fine.

Losing weight fast is a different matter.

Every single thing you do has an effect. Every meal must be totally healthy. Every workout session must be completed accurately. No slip ups are permissible.

Also, bear in mind that some doctors will warn against rapid weight loss, classing it as unhealthy for you and that you should lose weight at a more leisurely pace.

With these warnings out of the way however, let's take a look at a process that will enable you to lose weight fast if you're able to stick to it.

Whilst some people have success losing weight either by controlling their diet or by increasing their exercise, for best best chances of fast weight loss I would encourage you to do both.

Firstly the nutrition element.

Having tried all sorts of different diets over the years, the best results I have seen involve cutting carbs out of the diet almost entirely. Instead, the diet consists mainly of meat, vegetables and salads, and some dairy products. Think of it as a low fat Atkins diet of primarily protein and complex carbohydrates.

So breakfast might be grilled turkey bacon, scrambled eggs and mushrooms.

Lunch might be a green salad with strips of chicken and chopped soft-boiled eggs.

Dinner could be a steak with leeks and a creamy sauce.

All these meals are tasty and reasonably healthy and will help you to lose weight fast.

There are, of course, only so many combinations of meat and vegetables that once can make so experiment with adding different herbs and spices to your meat in order to change the flavour somewhat so keeping things interesting but adding few extra calories.

In terms of exercise, aim to get some exercise very day if possible. Six days a week with one day off to recover seems to work well too.

Aim to jog, cycle, row etc. for 30-60 minutes per session - the longer the better - at such an intensity that it's hard work and you end up red-faced and sweating.

Combine these two simple elements of diet and exercise with your own strong self discipline and you'll be well on track to losing weight fast.
