Most people I meet tend to have different approaches to weight loss.
Some people do low carb.
Some people do low fat.
But what is common about all those styles is a common mistake.
It’s something I call “playing to lose”.
This is just ONE of many mistakes most people make.
But if you fix this one mistake it can unlock the others.
And the best part is I have included a little list to help identify which mistake you are making.
And more importantly how to fix it.
The mistake is being DEHYDRATED.
It is a big mistake to make.
Being dehydrated is going to guarantee that you will not WIN when it comes to weight loss.
When you are dehydrated your body naturally “holds” on to any water which you do drink.
You swell up like a balloon.
WATER RETENTION is a natural response to dehydration the body thinks it’s actually helping.
Drinking plenty of water, about 1 litre for every 50lbs of body weight, will “let the body know” there is plenty of water available and the body won’t “hold” too much excess water.
This will keep your weight from fluctuating to wildly.
The other common mistakes:
NO carbs in their diet
This further exacerbates the dehydration and risk of injury. Carbohydrates play a role in hydration.
Carbohydrates actually deliver the water to the muscle.
On a LOW CARB diet, the muscles get very dehydrated which is not conducive to weight loss.
Poor quality salt intake
If you combine the above situation… being dehydrated plus a NO carb diet then in ADDITION TO THIS you eat BAD SALT, you will create the “perfect storm” to GAIN WEIGHT.
So even if you are sticking to a high protein, NO carb plan AND exercising
If you make these mistakes you are playing to lose in this little game of weight loss.
The best thing for you to do for weight loss is to:
1. Stay hydrated
2. Follow a low carb plan, not a NO carb plan.
3. Use good quality salt – such as natural sea salt flakes
Give it a try.
Take care,
