Burn Fat Not Muscle to Lose Weight!

By Ken V Smith

Yes! People talk a lot about weight loss. What they are actually trying to convey is fatloss.No one wants to lose muscle (and no one should). If you look at the mechanism of human body, is very intricate.

We need calories to survive and give fuel to our bodies.
Good nutrients should be supplied to our bodies.
We should take care not to consume extra calories (the reason for weight gain).
We should also take care that we take out the toxins from our bodies.

So? How does one go about it? Burn the fat not muscle to lose weight.

It's really simple. Take care of the followings:

Eat breakfast. It has been proved by scientific study that eating breakfast is extremely important. If you skip breakfast, you will feel hungrier and binge later, which is plain bad for your health and also for your fat loss program.
Don't go hungry for long hours. If you feel hungry, drink a glass of water (at times, we mistake our being thirsty to being hungry). If you still feel hungry, please eat something. Don't starve your self. By eating something, I mean choose a light and nutritious snack, don't go into direction of potato chips pr chocolate cookies. Opt for an apple instead.
The point mentioned above is important, because if you go hungry for a longer time, your body will target the existing sources of energies already stored in your body. That is fat and muscles both. While you will burn fat you will also burn muscle, which we do not want.
To burn fat not muscle to lose weight, you should eat such foods which is high in fiber and low on fat. Such food takes longer time to digest and will trick your body in feeling full for a long time. So you feel less hungry.
Do some exercise. Exercise is of vital importance and can not be ignored, if you want to burn fat not muscle to lose weight.
