Transform into that healthier person you're setting out to be.
To start, let's touch on what doesn't work, and then on what does.
What doesn't work?
Fast weight loss. It doesn't stay off!
Fad diets, like forbidden food groups. Or eating a lot of one thing, like fats. A fad diet can be bad for your health.
Whatever hasn't worked for you in the past!
What actually works for weight loss?
On paper, it's pretty simple:
Eat fewer calories.
Eat more nutritious foods.
And step up your activity level.
In daily life, it's complex. But the secret sauce is you. The first ingredient is why you want to change. That reason is what keeps you going when it gets tough.
