Calorie control is a key fundamental to fat loss, you're never going to get away from that.
However,
there are ways in which you can do things which make fat loss easier,
more comfortable and efficient during
the entire process. I see a lot of people making their fat loss journey
harder than it needs to be and ultimately failing as a result.
One KEY
focus I look at is satiety which is best achieved through low calorie
foods which are HIGH in nutrients i.e. micronutrients such as vitamins,
minerals and trace elements. What this means is you are fueling the
body properly, and are able to eat larger amounts of physical food as
the calorific count is
lower.
For
instance, 1kg of chicken breast would give you approximately 220g of
protein which equates to approximately 880 calories. That's a LOT
of food to eat, for just 880 calories. So mentally you feel like you
are eating a lot and physiologically, your gut feels full even though
the actual calorie content is relatively low.
I'm not saying your diet needs to be very low in calories at all, I always recommend eating as much as
you can WHILST losing body fat.
However,
it always makes sense to eat nutritionally dense foods which have a low
calorie count especially when dieting because you are able to eat more
and therefore satisfy your cravings.
Physiologically
speaking, having foods like this will help mediate your blood sugar
levels better and support insulin sensitivity which are both KEY points for optimizing fat
loss.
Give this some thought and look at what your diet is really like and whether or not you could make life easier for yourself!
On a final note, please remember this is just an example. I don't recommend only eating 1kg of chicken breast every day, in fact I advise against it. My diet plans are always very broad in terms of variety to ensure gut health is intact and the individual receives a wide array of nutrients and amino acid profiles.
