You can&#8217;t lose weight because your body doesn&#8217;t want to. Plus, dieting triggers hormone changes that make it hard to feel full and satisfied.<\/p>\n<p>And let\u2019s be honest\u2026 the constant calorie-counting, hunger, and deprivation make it difficult for you to stick with a diet plan long term anyway.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why it\u2019s not surprising that 95% of people who do manage to lose weight by dieting put it ALL back on \u2014 and then some \u2014 within just five years!<\/p>\n<p>So, the big question is\u2026<\/p>\n<h2>If calorie restriction doesn\u2019t work, what does?<\/h2>\n<p>With just 4 simple steps, you can enjoy permanent weight loss and have the body you desire. And you can get started right now\u2026<\/p>\n<h2>Step #1: Eliminate sugar and excess starches from your diet<\/h2>\n<p>Yes, I\u2019m sure you\u2019ve heard that before, but it bears repeating here. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.personaltrainerfood.com\/blog\/low-carb-food-swaps-weight-loss-meals\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cutting sugary sodas, cookies, breads, cereals, pastas, and potatoes<\/a> from your diet turns your body into a supercharged fat-burning machine. It\u2019s the single most effective thing you can do to achieve lasting weight loss.<\/p>\n<h2>Step #2: Fast regularly<\/h2>\n<p>Fasting is a powerful tool for overcoming sugar addictions and firing up your metabolism, and it can be used in two different ways:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.personaltrainerfood.com\/blog\/clear-liquid-fast-weight-loss\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">24 to 48 hour clear liquid fast<\/a> once a week or month.<\/li>\n<li>The 12 to 14 hour fast overnight \u2014 also called Intermittent Fasting \u2014 that allows time for your body to process all the food you ate the day before and put you in fat-burning mode.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Step #3: Daily Exercise<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s not about killer workouts. A daily 20 minute walk \u2014 or 2,000 steps per day \u2014 is all you really need to get great results.<\/p>\n<h2>Step #4: Eat the Right Foods<\/h2>\n<p>This is 90% of your weight loss battle. By eating a healthy diet of lean meats, eggs, healthy fats, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.personaltrainerfood.com\/blog\/non-starchy-vegetables\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">non-starchy vegetables<\/a> \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.personaltrainerfood.com\/blog\/study-blame-sugar-carbs-for-obesity\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">and skipping the carbs<\/a> \u2014 you can turn &#8216;can&#8217;t lose weight&#8217; to &#8216;can lose weight.&#8217; You&#8217;ll put fat loss on autopilot and never worry about gaining weight again.<\/p>\n<p>The good news is\u2026 eating right doesn\u2019t have to be expensive or time-consuming.<\/p>\n<h2>Especially because right now\u2026<\/h2>\n<p>You can get fresh, complete meals delivered right to your door!<\/p>\n<p>With Personal Trainer Food, you get perfectly balanced, pre-cooked meals that contain only delicious meats, eggs, cheeses, and vegetables.
