1/You need to spend endless hours in the gym. For most of us this is totally impractical.
2/ You need to cut out all fat and carbohydrates from your diet.

These two myths alone are responsible for more failures in weight loss than I can count.

Take the first myth, exercise. Yes it is good for you… but just climbing the stairs or parking your car just a little further away and walking the rest is all you really need.

It is better for you to eat the right combination of foods as these will boost your metabolism and you will actually burn fat while feeding your body.

Myth number two.

All carbs and fats are bad for you.  Wrong, wrong, wrong! You need good carbs for your body to function at its proper rate. Good, non processed carbs are a life saver yet they have been lumped in with all the not so good processed carbs and labelled as bad for you.

Fats are another group badly labelled. Yes many fats do fall into the bad category and these are mostly the processed fats and trans fats. I bet you didn’t know that many people simply cannot lose weight unless they eat fats… usually up to 20% of their calorie requirement each day.

So don’t just accept what you read. Inform yourself and rid yourself of excess fat now.
