The Dustin Diet
Lose weight fast with the Dustin Diet.
What is the Dustin Diet?
The Dustin Diet is a diet that I came up with that helps the dieting gain lean muscle, burn fat, and keep blood sugar stable throughout the day (except post workout).
What are the Macros for the Dustin Diet?
Ideally most of your calories will come from Proteins and Fats. The least amount of calories come from Carbohydrates. Typically protein is 40-45%, Fat 30-35%, and Carbs under 30%.
How Many Calories Do I Eat?
I base all diets for clients on their BMR. If you have weight to lose, eat at or below your BMR and you will lose weight. BMR stands for Basal Metabolic Rate, or the amount of calories your body needs to maintain your current weight at rest.
Use this calculator to measure your BMR: http://www.bmi-calculator.net/bmr-calculator/
Water Requirements
With any diet, you should drink a minimum of 100 ounces a day. Water helps increase metabolism and control appetite.

I am not a doctor or a registered dietitian. This is a sample outline that I have created. I suggest all dieters to talk to their doctors to ensure you are healthy enough to start any diet.
