It is common knowledge that men usually lose weight faster than women. Some of the reasons why this is normally the case are because women have more fat and also because men have more muscles. This is the primary reason why the weight loss blueprint for women differs from that of men.

How To Lose Weight

One of the best and most effective ways for women to lose weight is by eating healthy foods. You are what you eat after all! Having good nutrition combined with enough physical activities also does wonders.

For you to be able to lose fat you will have to burn more calories than you eat. This enables your body to convert its stored fat into energy enabling you to lose weight.

You should be patient when looking to lose weight as a sudden decrease in body fat can lead to your body using your muscle tissue to produce energy instead of fat causing your muscle cells to shrink.

To get your nutrition right, you will need to first know how many calories you should take and you can do that using a calorie calculator. This is a simple process as you will be required to provide data such as your age, gender, height, and your current weight.

Knowing the number of calories you need helps you to drop them down to allow your body to burn the fat already stored inside. This means reducing foods that are high in calories such as cakes, candy, potato chips, French fries, and beverages. You will also need to know about your macronutrients.

What Are Macronutrients?

Macronutrients are three foods that are required in large amounts by the body ad they are: proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. This means that you have to know exactly how much of each of the three macronutrients your body needs.

As earlier mentioned Carbohydrates, fats, and protein and examples of these foods are: 

These include foods such as whole grains, bananas, apples, corn, vegetables, sweet potatoes, among many others. (Carbohydrates)

They are such as avocados, sunflower seeds, olive oil, almonds, and walnuts. (Fats)

They are such as fish, low-fat dairy products, skinless chicken, and lean red meat. (Protein)

Therefore creating a meal plan is encouraged. When coming up with a meal plan, it’s good for you to keep in mind that breakfast is one of the most important meals for people who want to lose weight. Therefore, ensure that you take enough high-fiber carbohydrates. The following is an example of a meal plan for losing fat:

• Breakfast. Include a glass of water, ½ cup of whole-grain or even oatmeal, fruits such as papaya or an apple, and 3 eggs.

• Mid-morning snack.  Here you can take a protein bar.

• Lunch.  Your meal can include ½ cup of brown rice, a glass of water, veggies, and 6 oz of skinless chicken or lean steak.

• Mid-Afternoon snack. A protein shake and a cup of yogurt will do the trick.

• Dinner. 6 oz lean steak or chicken (without skin), a glass of water, 1 sweet potato. 

"The benefits of having a mean plan is that it helps save money, save time, and improves health."
