The Eat Less / Move More Principle

You say you’ve tried everything, right?  Well weight loss isn’t near as complicated as people make it.  To break it down in it’s simplest form is: If you burn more calories than you are taking in, you will lose weight.  It’s been proven thousands and thousands of time.  If you eat less (than you are now) and move more (exercise more than you are now), your body will lose weight. It’s IMPOSSIBLE to burn more calories than you are consuming and gain weight.  IMPOSSIBLE!

Here’s a classic funny video that displays this principle pretty clearly.

The problem with this method is your body changes as you try to change it so you have to change your approach to be a step ahead.  So how fast you lose weight, how your body actually changes/whether you become lean or not, how you feel as far as energy, whether you’re improving your overall fitness level and function in life, etc. are all dependent on more specific factors.

The main 2 factors are the type of exercise plan and nutrition plan you are on. This is where it gets more complicated and really becomes a science if you want to maximize the results you’re going to get because using the same method of attack will work for a little while but your body will catch up eventually.  e.g. The amount of calories your body burns when you do a certain exercise lessens over time.  So keep the Eat Less/Move More principle in mind but remember you need to change to keep your body changing.
