1. Be patient! – Changes don’t appear over night. Being inpatient represents the ground problem when engaging in a weight loss procedure. If you start a diet rich in carbs with a moderate quantity of proteins, lipids and calories, wait at least 21 days to accomplish visible results.

2. Know what you are eating! – To know foods nutritive value makes dieting more easier and helps you to leave out what is unfit when loosing weight. It is good to be informed over caloric values, grams, food content so in case you are not at home and feeling hungry, you may pick the right food for your diet.

3. Eat constantly! – Try having 4-5 meals a day. This method (1meal/2-3 hours) inhibits fat storage and develops muscle quantity by amplifying nutrients absorption.

4. Drop strict measurements! – If it is not necessary to hold a certain weight, leave out constant measuring. Rather follow the percentage of the adipose tissue and note down the results when dieting. When body builders try to grow in dimensions they often become discouraged by the fact that their body weight is not growing fast enough. They then overreact by taking in more calories and the same happens when someone is trying to loose weight unsuccessfully. They start to cut down calories drastically. The best way to appreciate figure is to ask a different opinion or watch a recent photo. Body building is a visual sport. If muscles start to show and the adipose tissue disappears, the diet is successful even if the scale disagrees.

5. Don’t overeat! – It may sound nonsense, but several body builders tend to consume more calories to grow in mass, but the excess is eventually converted into fat. Cases have been described when body builders on low calorie intake gain weight by overreacting with carbs. We all know that carbs are necessary when training hard but once the body processed the necessary; the excess is turned into fat and is deposited.

6. Don’t copy nobody’s diet! – Even if you admire a champion, think twice before you adopt his/hers eating habits. Form the diet to your necessities, learn from others but have your own individual diet.

7. Remember that dietary supplements are not the right answer! – Dietary supplements are not short cuts between settled goals before starting a weight loss procedure. Some body builders take carnitine or chromium, but not always successfully. Others use creatinin, glutamine or amino-acids to grow muscle mass, but they don’t consume enough calories or proteins to stimulate the organism towards a healthy azotate balance. Dietary supplements can be used to sustain a nutritional program and not to cover mistakes or poor planning.

8. Don’t become a diet’s slave! – Some give up just because they are fed up with chicken breasts or tuna. Several delicious and various recipes exist to make the process of the diet diversified. Be a little ingenious.

9. Don’t give up lipids completely! – The complete elimination of lipids and following just a protein based diet and almost no lipids can result in a diminished lipid metabolism and growth deficit. A diet poor in lipids but with the right content of essential fatty acids (found in beef, chicken or fish) is important for a normal metabolism.

10. Don’t make huge changes! – Give your organism the chance to naturally break down lipids, so lipid deposits once destroyed not to reform again.
