UNDERSTANDING FAT GAIN ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You’ve probably heard that certain foods are “fattening”.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Real talk – any food that you eat too much of can make you gain weight/fat.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In order to lose fat, we need to be in a caloric deficit.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We need to burn more calories than we consume.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We do this by cutting down on overall calorie intake and adding some exercise throughout the week.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
ANY food you overeat can make you gain fat. Fruit, Pasta, Peanut Butter, Fish, Chocolate, Milk, Etc.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These foods can LEAD to weight gain (if overconsumed), but they do not just instantly make you gain fat like some people might claim.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are many myths out there when it comes to gaining fat, and I am on a mission to dispell them and help you understand fat loss and fat gain.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
During my weight loss journey, I still enjoyed fruit, rice, pasta, etc.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Many people might think these foods would make me gain weight, but I was steadily losing 1-2 lbs a week because I was tracking my calorie intake and I was making sure I was more conscious of HOW MUCH I was eating.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can still enjoy your favorite foods in moderation and lose fat at the same time.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Should you focus on mainly ‘whole’ foods with nutrients, fiber, vitamins, etc.? Yes, you should. Because those things will make you feel better and that is the overall goal of eating healthier!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
