#3: How to Achieve and Sustain Weight Loss

Episode Summary

Learn how to effectively achieve a caloric deficit to promote weight loss, including strategies for controlling hunger and boosting metabolism.

Episode Notes

Establishing a caloric deficit means consuming fewer calories than your body uses for daily energy expenditure, prompting the body to burn stored fat for energy. In this episode, I discuss the strategies that help my clients create this deficit without feeling deprived. From eating satiating, low calorie, nutrient-dense foods to incorporating more movement into their daily routine, these changes make a big difference.

We also cover how to navigate common challenges, such as dealing with hunger and overcoming weight loss plateaus, which can derail progress. 

By understanding how to maintain a caloric deficit in a realistic and manageable way, you can stay motivated, avoid frustration, and achieve your weight loss goals.

5 Tips for Staying in the Weight Loss Zone

  1. Determine your total daily energy expenditure (TDEE).
  2. Track your daily calorie intake as accurately as possible.
  3. Combine moderate calorie restriction with regular exercise.
  4. Focus on high-protein, high-fiber, low-calorie foods to stay full longer.
  5. Avoid ultra processed foods and excessive sugar.
