The basics for reducing your simple carbohydrate (any carb that isn’t a fiber) intake in relation to fat loss is this; your body’s preferred source of fuel is carbohydrates. Therefore if you are consistently feeding your body with simple carbs then you never give your body a chance to tap into its energy reserves (fat).

If you are serious about both eating healthily and trying to lose weight here is a general diet plan that will turn you into a fat burning machine.

Breakfast – Protein shake with cinnamon (for insulin sensitivity)

Snack – beef jerky or nuts or string cheese

Lunch – Salad with grilled chicken (oil and apple cider vinegar [for insulin sensitivity] dressing)

Dinner – Wild caught fish or grass fed beef or farm fresh eggs with vegetable (broccoli, spinach) seasoned with spices and extra virgin olive oil

Optional Snack – Natural peanut butter
