Ok, let’s review what you just watched.

3 Things – How to Lose Weight in Five Days:

1. Eat enough calories – calculate your BMR. I use this BMR calculator every day when doing nutrition consults. It is simple, quick, and easy to use. Once you learn your BMR click Daily Calorie Needs. Take your BMR and multiply it by the activity number. This will tell you how many calories per day you must eat to maintain your weight. Now, I know that you want to lose weight so subtract 500 and that is how many calories you must eat to lose 1 lbs per week.

EX: 1490 (BMR) x 1.55 (3-5 days working out) = 2310 – 500 = 1810 (number of calories to eat per day to lose 1 lb per week)

Got it?

Many women don’t eat enough calories. You could be eating 200-500 calories too little. So that is why I highly recommend MyFitnessPal for tracking your fitness and nutrition.

2. De-stress – When you are stressed out your body releases cortisol which causes weight gain around you midsection. Do 1-2 things per day to relax and de-stress.

My favorite ways to relax and de-stress are going to lunch with friends, working out, and doing coaching calls with clients. Another thing that helps me to relax and de-stress is to pray. Tell God what is bothering you and let Him work out all the details.

 

 

3. Do cardio 2 times per day – Do 45 min as soon as you wake up. Make it intense interval training then fill up your water bottle and go to the steam room. The steam room will help get rid of toxins and extra water weight. Then in the afternoon or evening do another 45 min of cardio. This is what Body Builders and Bikini Models do!
