Today we want to share with you the article from which you will learn which foods and exercises to help get rid of fat.

I'm obese, but was able to return to a normal weight. And sometimes people ask me what to eat to get rid of fat.

I have tried many diets: Atkins, Mediterranean, South Beach Diet, paleodietu, strict vegetarian and even a bunch of others. In the end, I created a proper nutrition plan and watch for how many calories you consume.

And I have come to this conclusion:

To get rid of fat, you should eat high-quality products, especially vegetables. In this case, you will not overeat and to poison your body with harmful food.

I have created a system of power, which is perfect for me, and I hope that she will approach you and, but, because we are all different, the effect you can have a little bit different. I can not regret to give up meat out of compassion to animals, but I do not expect that everything will go the same way. Experiment, try to find something that suits you.

High Quality Products

Here is a list of high-quality products that helped me get rid of fat.

• Non-starchy vegetables. It's great products, I can eat them in unlimited quantities, and only benefit from this. Green vegetables are the best help get rid of fat, But do not underestimate the red, orange and yellow.
• Proteins. Since I am a vegetarian, I usually choose the pace, seitan, tofu and beans. But if you do not identify themselves as vegetarians, of course, the fish will approach, poultry and red meat (in small quantities).
• Fruits. I usually eat them for a snack. Carrots, although it is not a fruit, can also be attributed to this point. I love berries, apples, stone fruits (peaches, plums and so on. D.), Tropical fruit.
• Beans. I have already mentioned the beans when he talked about squirrels, but I brought them in a separate paragraph in order to emphasize that the beans of all kinds of extremely useful for you.
• Vegetable oils. I let myself in small amounts olive oil, Rapeseed oil, coconut oil, avocado oil, linseed oil.

I also reduced the consumption of whole grains, nuts (walnuts are useful for your body, but they contain a lot of calories) and starchy vegetables. And I drink a glass of red wine every evening.

low Quality Products

Substandard products are recommended to be used in smaller amounts and not as a staple food, and, say, for dessert, as they mostly do not promote fat loss.

• Flour products. Bread, pastries, pasta. These products are not harmful to you (in moderation), but they do not promote fat loss.
• Sugar. He is in everything. Carbonated drinks, coffee, sweets, cereals, sauces. I urge you not to completely abandon sugar, but I advise you to use it in moderation, let it be for you an extra treat, not a staple in the diet.
• Beer. I love beer, but to lose weight it to me, of course, does not help. So I drink beer only on holidays or during meetings with friends - about once or twice a month.
• Fried foods. I do not avoid fried foods, but I know that to get rid of fat, they just do not help me.
• Starchy foods. White rice, white potatoes - these products are not bad for your body, but a full-fledged food is difficult to call.
• Processed meats. I do not eat no meat, because I am a vegetarian, but from processed meat, I would advise everyone to stay away. This concentration of fats, salts and nitrates.
• Prepared foodstuffs. Not the most evil for your body, but certainly it's more expensive products, and thus more saturated fats, salt and sugars. Very carefully you should refer to the frozen products (except that of frozen vegetables).

Do you know why so many people is difficult to get rid of fat even when they are on a diet? Because even in the diet, they still allow themselves to this junk food.

A diet of high-quality products

How to combine high-quality products in our daily diet? Combinations are many, here are a few examples.

• Example 1. On breakfast omelette tofu with vegetables for dinner and vegetarian hot pace (you can add a little brown rice in its discretion), snack on fruits and carrots for dinner again vegetarian roast in the evening you can drink a glass of red wine.
• Example 2. For breakfast, oatmeal with berries or nuts, for lunch vegetarian chili, dessert apples and almond butter, a cup green tea. Chili for dinner again and a glass of red wine.
• Example 3. Arrange a light breakfast of fruit and nuts (in reasonable quantities, of course), then go for a workout and drink a protein shake. At lunch seitan with cabbage, roast mushrooms, you can later treat yourself to a fruity cocktail. For dinner, seitan with vegetables, green tea, in the evening you can drink a glass of red wine.
• Example 4. For breakfast, oatmeal with berries or nuts, soy milk. For lunch curry of lentils, snack carrots and hummus. After dinner, you can drink oolong tea.

If you do not fit these combinations, then a lot of them online and you can choose the one that will have you liking without any problems.

I usually cook food directly on the three or four days. This allows me to save time on cooking.

If you start eat right, Does this mean that from now on bread, candy and fries forever be for you banned? I do not advocate extreme measures, so I think that it is not necessary to torture yourself, denying yourself that you love. But also keep in mind that these products are harmful to the body, and you should not indulge yourself by them frequently.

Pleasure can be obtained from health food, and not just from fast food.

Workout for burning fat

Diet - is one of the main conditions that will help you get rid of fat. But to keep myself in good shape and stay healthy diet should be combined with exercise.

That's what I'm doing exercises:

• Power training. Catching strength trainingYou will be able to lose fat without losing muscle mass. In addition, strength training will help you to feel stronger and more confident. This is important not only for men but also for women. I recommend starting with exercises such as push-ups, squats and lunges. Once you train yourself to do these exercises, you can gradually increase the load, for example to start doing exercises with a barbell.
• Cardio. I often think that people who engage in strength training, contemptuously refer to cardio. But, in my opinion, the strength and the perfect combination of cardio. Cardio help your heart stay healthy, you burn calories and keep yourself in good shape. I like to run and a lot of walking on foot, but if you prefer to swim or ride a bike, these are perfect for cardio too.
• Sport. Engage any sportThat you like: basketball, football, rugby, rock climbing, mountain biking or skiing, do some surfing.

The secret is simple: when you combine different exercises with the correct and appropriate to your diet, you will be able to get rid of fat.
