Calorie Deficit Diet

Calorie Deficit Diet

What is the Calorie Deficit Diet? The calorie deficit diet is just a “normal” diet in which the dieter eats less calories than they need, causing fat loss. This diet cares more about the amount of calories ate vs. the amount of any specific macro. I would suggest trying to eat at least 80% of your ideal body weight in grams of protein a day to retain and build lean muscle.

For instance: You want to weight 150.

150 x .80 = 120 Grams of Protein

The rest of your macros can be anything as long as you are in a deficit.

How Many Calories Should I Eat?

To calculate calories, I suggest calculating your BMR. BMR stands for Basal Metabolic Rate, or the amount of calories your body needs to maintain its current weight at rest. If you eat less than your BMR you will lose weight.

I use this calculator to calculate BMR: http://www.bmi-calculator.net/bmr-calculator/

Before Starting a Calorie Deficit Diet

Talk to your doctor before starting any diet. I am not a doctor or registered dietitian. This is just a sample of a lower calorie diet.

Water

It is important with any diet to drink at least 100 ounces of water. Water increases metabolism, decreases hunger, and is generally awesome!

The key to this diet is that you need to just make sure you stay under your allotted calorie goals. If you do that, and stay active, you should lose a ton of weight. I do suggest that you hit your protein mark each day that was previously mentioned.
