Losing Weight Doesn’t Have To Be Complicated
November 28 2014
In recent years, many theories have been devised on how to lose weight, and along the way it seems there’s been one fad “diet” after the other. At MealEasy we’ve maintained our philosophy that losing weight is and has alway been a simple concept. It is and has always been about calories in vs calories out.
A new article confirms this once again:
Naveed Sattar, a professor of metabolic medicine at the University of Glasgow states “In general, if you cut calories, you lose weight,” says Sattar. “A recent study in the Journal of the American Medical Association found that, no matter what the diet, you’ll lose weight.”
The article touches on other subjects as well, though this particular quote is worth noting, in our quest to maintain our weight on an ongoing basis.
So what really is “calories in” vs “calories out”? The “calories in” is what we eat, and “calories out” is what we do to burn calories. If we eat too many calories and have a sedentary lifestyle, calories go up, and our weight goes up along with it. But if we eat less calories and burn more calories by being more physically active, we start winning our war weight.
It really is that simple and what we advocate with our weight loss meal plan. As an added bonus, if you focus on “quality” calories from whole food ingredients, your body will love you for it.
