EAT CLEAN To be healthy and lose body fat we have to learn how to eat to lose weight. Eating small meals made up of 5 to 6 meals a day helps the metabolism speed up and burn calories. Many people try to skip meals and think that it will cut the calories they need to in order to lose the weight, however instead they are training the body to store the food rather than to burn it up.

NUTRITIONAL SUGGESTIONS:

Make sure you are consuming enough calories each day according to your size. If you drop your calories to low <1000 cal/day, it will starve your system and train it to store food, not burn it.

Remember, there are more choices of proteins, carbs and fats, these are just a few good suggestions. Also don't forget, your body needs good fats in your diet to make it complete (omega 3 omega 6)
