The secret is to vary your diet and exercise regime. Rest is a big part of losing weight too. If you go too hard your body will keep fat reserves thinking what's going on, then you rest for a week, it thinks you're not training anymore and you'll lose 1kg in a week, then you star training again until the next plateau.
Your body will adapt to whatever you do. You can run your a$$ off for months and not shed a gram. Key is variation and consistency.
I did it before with a trainer so I knew exactly what to do and what I was up to this time. Any questions, fire away. |

I did a 12 week challenge at the beginning of the year and have managed to keep off 10kg of the weight I lost during that time. Life has been very hard this year with a really rough break up and moving house because of it so I have found it very hard continuing the downward trend.
Back into things now with a far more maintainable plan. I have a weekly allotment of 10,920 calories and if I stick below that each week, I have a loss! This means cycling of calories. Some days I have really light days (1200 or under), some days I stick to my "daily limit" of 1560 calories and once a week I "use" my deficit to have a cheat day.
So far the results are incredible with losses each week and I certainly do not feel deprived! It's all about moderation and portions and making sure those "occasional" foods stay occasional! And keeping the body guessing!!
