Typical advice: create a small daily
calorie deficit and stick with it for weeks.
The problem: the math has to be precise.
Tracking calories accurately and knowing
your actual metabolic rate is nearly
impossible to nail down.
And even if you did, metabolic
adaptation kicks in. Your body fights you
the entire time trying to get back to
homeostasis.

Fiber is a super underrated micro for
fat loss.
Keeps you full longer, slows digestion,
stabilizes blood sugar. Same calories,
way less hunger.
Aim for whole foods. Vegetables, fruit,
potatoes. Skip the supplement, get it
from real food.

Don't drink your calories.
Don't get me wrong, a glass of wine or a

pretty well still underestimate how many
"hidden" calories come from juice, coffee
with milk and sugar, or alcohol.

Executives, here's the simplest way to
structure your nutrition:
- first meal: high protein, no excuses. Not a shake person? Greek yogurt with berries and your favorite toppings works just as well.
- lunch: a solid protein foundation, fish or meat, with sides of your choice.
- afternoon: a protein snack or a shake to bridge the gap.
- dinner: same principle as lunch. Fish or meat, plus sides.
