Other than eat less/do more?
5 smaller meals a day (to avoid storing then burning off energy, leaving the fat behind)
Eat less healthy but nececary foods (simple sugars like fruits) before lunch to make sure its all burnt off.
Dont drink suggary energy drinks during excercise, drining water (or electrolyte) encourages the body to burn somethign like 40% more fat.
Anyone got any other good tips? I don’t fancy a complete change of diet as it’s already pretty healthy and don’t want to impose some faddy reigime on the missus at mealtimes, I’ve just halved protion sizes and added ‘snacks’ mid morning and afternoon.
Brekie – apple, bannana, coffee (1 part espresso, one part skimmed milk, 1/2 sugar), pint of hot/warm orange squash.
8 mile comute by bike.
Mid morning – porrige
Lunch – whatever, 50/50 soup or a propper (small) meal
Afternoon – Biscuits/toast/slice of cake
8 mile commute home, with swimming 4x a week (~600m/20min)
Dinner – something normal, aiming for more protein but smaller than I’d normaly have considdered portion size.
We’re going on a beach holliday at the end of April so really want to shed as many pounds as possible before then!
