Losing weight is a funny thing. I mean in theory? It’s a simple process. Eat fewer calories than you’re taking in, with sufficient protein, and plenty of nutrient rich food. But, as you and I well know, just having that information? Often isn’t enough to trigger long term fat-loss. Because there’s [...]
First fats were evil. Then carbs. Then only sugars. Or skipping breakfast. Then you were told you should skip breakfast. Or only eat every second day? The list of the dietary guidance the internet churns out is a smorgasbord of diametrically opposed sentiments that leave even the most enthused of individuals [...]
Ok, ok, I should probably be honest with you from the outset… I was a little… misleading, with the title of this blog. Not misleading to the extent of “Eating this one weird fruit will burn fat right off your body!”. But misleading to the extent I implied a single meal [...]
