Weight loss for most people is really a matter of learning to eat properly. Developing a weight loss plan can seem difficult, but it doesn't have to be. For many of us the closest we ever came to learning about proper eating was the food pyramid in 6th grade health class.

The pyramid, which is questionable in its own-right, does little to teach someone how to eat. For example, two of the key blocks in the food pyramid are carbohydrates and dairy, however the pyramid does not distinguish between good carbs and bad carbs or low-fat and high-fat dairy. Failing to make these distinctions could lead someone with, the best of intentions, into a life of obesity and heart disease.

The likelihood of maintaining the weight loss is extremely low, and health risks of starving your body of essential nutrients compiled with the likely yo-yo affect are borderline unethical. To find a sustainable weight loss plan, you need a plan that teaches you to eat properly, both from a portion size and ingredient perspective. Eating to much of the right foods is not good either. You can (and should) study calories, nutrients, measure, and journal to eat properly.

The problem is for most, by the time they realize they need help (e.g., best friends wedding is in four months), there is no time to begin an educational journey in healthy eating.

My goal was to increase definition without losing muscle and it worked. If I was still personal training I would require all of my clients to follow this program as well.Biggest Loser:The Biggest Loser plan is based around the reality show of the same name.
