The Realities of Weight Loss and Dietary Calculations

Everyone wants a lean, flat stomach with their abdominal muscles clearly showing, to feel better about themselves, to show off, and to take better care of their bodies. However, there is a great price to pay to pursuing a more lean and muscular you. In fact, it’s worth noting that you not only need to measure daily your caloric intake/outtake, but also your protein consumption in contrast to workout routines or exercise, and also close attention to your carbohydrate input/output.

While many people believe that the ‘fast solution’ to weight loss is depriving themselves of calories or carbohydrates, this is just not realistically the case. In fact, doing so will ‘shock’ your body so to speak, and it would instantly begin relying on and eating away at both your fat and muscle should you decide to do so, as it goes from preservation mode to survival mode, to ultimately starvation mode.
