Weight Loss

Healthy Weight Loss (2 -2.5 Kgs/month)

Weight loss means reducing your total body weight. It typically comes from losing:
  • Body fat (the main goal for most people)
  • Water weight
  • Sometimes lean muscle mass

Core Principles of Weight Loss

Here are the essentials that work, no matter which diet or program you choose:

Calorie Deficit
  • You must consume fewer calories than you burn.
  • 1 pound of fat ≈ 3,500 calories.
  • A safe, sustainable deficit is ~500 calories per day (aiming for ~1 pound per week).
Nutrition Quality
  • Focus on high-protein, high-fiber foods to stay fuller longer.
  • Limit ultra-processed foods and sugary drinks.
Movement & Exercise
  • Strength training helps preserve muscle.
  • Cardio burns extra calories and improves heart health.
  • Daily activity (steps, chores) matters more than you think!
Consistency & Patience
  • Small changes repeated daily > big changes you can’t stick to.

Example Daily Meal Approach

  • Breakfast: Greek yogurt + berries + nuts
  • Lunch: Grilled chicken salad + olive oil dressing
  • Snack: Apple + handful of almonds
  • Dinner: Baked fish + steamed vegetables + quinoa
  • Hydration: Plenty of water

Pro Tips for Success

  • Track your food (apps like MyFitnessPal)
  •  Meal prep to avoid impulsive eating
  •  Get 7–9 hours of sleep (sleep affects hunger hormones)
  •  Manage stress—chronic stress increases fat storage
  •  Be patient—focus on habits, not just the scale
