Let's relate weight loss to dogs...

If we bring an overweight dog to the Vet...the Vet is going to tell us two things. One; try to cut down on what you feed the dog. You can do this by portion control, buying those fancy bags of "prescription kibble for dogs" (when in reality that kibble still stinks and is just less calorically dense but thats a wholleeee other topic😉) and giving them less treats. Two; try to walk the dog more. Cause ya' know... more movement means the dog burns more calories!

Soo what's that have do to do with us humans?

Well ya see...when it comes to losing weight. Dogs and humans are pretttttyyy similar. Of course there are outliers here and there such as diseases, special circumstances, etc. But, I'm talking to the MAJORITY of people here and just using a basic concept.

Many, many people would benefit from the same diagnosis the vet gives the dog...eat less, move more. It's pretty simple. But, we live in a world where everything is complicated. People think they need an "amazing cleanse" or some BS like that to get them back on track. Our body does a lottttt for us if we just use it correctly. Like the clense thing above...we have a gigantic organ in our body that cleanses every single thing that goes into us (that would be your liver...incase you were wondering😁).

Soooo....

Big takeaway points are...we as a society need to be like dogs when they are overweight...eat less and move more. Keep it simple. Don't overcomplicate it. Reach out to experts (like me) to fine tune things such as protein, strength training and overall well being. Those contribute to a better you as well. But, starting with the simple stuff like moving more and eating less...helps a ton.
