Does eating late at night make you gain weight?
“Is fasting good to help me lose weight?”
In short
1)When you eat does not really matter as long as you’re in a calorie deficit
2) although some might say that if to eat regularly you’ll burn more calories by moving more after the meals and through the calories digesting the food, this doesn’t seem to be the case or have any meaningful impact providing calories are the same
Now where does fasting come in with all of this?
let’s say you skip breakfast and eat only 2 meals a day…
Your chances of overeating on calories that day may be lower…
Which means you will lose weight.
Calories in, calories out, is the key to weight loss…
Fasting MAY also help people better control their blood sugar levels and regulate hunger…
In short, fasting can be a simple way to reduce calories without having to count them.
HOWEVER…
For others?
It results in a restrict – binge scenario.
All you think about is food all day.
And you end up giving in to the cake in the office…followed by the F it Mindset, start again Monday…
Take Home:
Ultimately, losing body fat will improve the health of most people, regardless of whether you did it by fasting or not.
The principle behind this is creating a calorie deficit. Which means more out, less in.
The TACTIC you use to get there has to fit your lifestyle.
Don’t like eating breakfast and feel like you’re forcing it down?
Why not delay it until mid-morning and see how you go?
That might delay your lunch and
Maybe it’ll help you if you struggle at that mid afternoon crash time of the day?
Enjoy breakfast?
Keep it eating it. Just be sure to control your portions in your meals
But I get that you probably know that already.
and it’s the doing you struggle with.
Doing it consistently and for long enough to see the results you want.
Which is why accountability is such a big part of what we do at Fruci Fit.
To give you the polite kick up the bum to do the things you know you need to do
