The first thing to remember is the use of the word diet - DIET doesn't always mean reducing food it is a eating regime or plan, is may be aimed at putting weight on or gaining lean muscle mass so don't be fooled that we are going to reduce your eating. We may just change it a little.
But having said that, assuming you want to lose weight then Let's start with the obvious and simple. The basic of weight management is input versus output.
Quite simply if input (what you eat) is greater than output ( the energy you need during the day) you will put weight on, if input is the same as output you will remain static and if input is less than output you will lose weight. So quite simply reduce what you put in and you will start to lose weight.
Let's start 2011 by keeping a food diary for one week to see what you eat In a normal week, when you eat (time of day), how you feel and how much you weigh.
So make a note from tomorrow of what you eat and when.
Start by weighing yourself and taking key measurements, chest, waist, hips, thigh, bicep. Note all these down and away we go. I will do it to tomorrow too so we are all taking this journey together.
It does get a little more complicated but this is the basic principle. When we add in exercise you can start to change your shape more quickly as this will burn off additional energy using up the food you are eating.
