What are some of the biggest weight loss mistakes women make? Learn here why you’re not losing weight and how to avoid falling victim to these fat loss traps. This video contains 5 of the most common weight loss mistakes related to nutrition that women tend to make. Today’s video is about nutrition mistakes and tomorrow’s will be about gym mistakes so stay tuned!
The first of the reasons you’re not losing weight could be that you’re not getting enough protein. For women lifting weights and looking to lose bodyfat we recommend .75 to 1g of protein per lb of goal bodyweight per day. It’s common knowledge that most women have difficulty achieving this level of protein intake, and this may be a key reason you’re not losing fat.
Another of the mistakes to lose weight is eating meal sized snacks. We often believe most women eat too little or don’t eat often enough, and we do advocate eating 5-6 times per day. But your snacks should be smaller than your meals to lose weight. Follow the calorie recommendations in the video to avoid this common nutrition mistake. Another of the diet mistakes so many women make is choosing low fat or diet foods at the grocery store. These are highly processed and often make up for the ‘low fat’ by increasing sugars or carbs. If you’re doing this, it could be why you’re not losing weight.
Many women are so busy that they don’t get enough sleep. That’s one of the top beginner weight loss mistakes, but it is an important one. The body needs sleep for workout recovery and to digest properly. Avoid this common fat loss mistake and make sure you’re getting enough sleep! Also, if you’re trying to lose weight it’s important not to have unrealistic expectations. Weight loss takes time and experimentation. If you’re not losing weight, make a tweak and give it a few weeks before you decide you’re not seeing results.
