6 Pointers For Losing Loose Arm Fat

Extreme dietary restriction when learning how to lose arm fat is cardinal sin number one. Despite all the "don't starve yourself" and "eat six meals a day" advice, many women are STILL dieting the dirty way. And most women simply do not know how to change their eating patterns in a healthy and sustainable fashion.

But the truth is that such guerilla dieting destroys the body's metabolic mechanisms. In other words, it shuts down your body's ability to burn off the arm flab. So here are 6 nutrition tips to follow so that your body (and mind) doesn't shut down:

1. Don't obsess over burning more calories than you take in. We're all busy and don't have all day to exercise or learn how to lose arm fat. You do not need to do both cardiovascular work and weight training to get rid of your flabby arms. All you need is a short (45 minutes or less) and intense weight training workout that will keep you burning an excess of calories days after.

2. Don't keep a journal of every piece of food you eat. You are not a machine, so please don't act like one. Do this, and you'll end up feeling like a slave. Eventually, you'll reach a tipping point and throw in the flabby arms towel.

3. Pay attention to each meal. Instead of micromanaging everything, simply make sure that each one of your meals is balanced. In other words, include a protein, fat, vegetable, and carbohydrate food item in each meal. This is all you have to do.

4. Banish your calorie-counting tendencies. Even worse than your food journal, calorie-counting is another full time job. And the worst part is that it's based on an obsolete closed thermodynamic model. A 3500 caloric deficit does NOT equal a pound of fat loss. Don't become a machine when learning how to lose arm fat!

5. Don't eliminate pleasure foods from your diet. The biggest negatives of pleasure foods are high caloric content and fast digestion. You can minimize both negatives by simply having a slightly smaller portion of the food and accompanying it with a serving of vegetables. The fibrous material of the vegetable will slow down the digestion of the pleasure food substantially and less calories (if any) will go to your arm fat.

6. Don't have more than one serving of alcohol per day. Again, despite all the advice on this one, many of my female clients still drink way too much. Aside from a high caloric content, alcohol shuts down all your arm fat burning hormones. The good news is that the more you exercise, the less alcohol you need to achieve that "buzz" feeling.

Learning how to lose arm fat the right way should be a lot easier with my eat-right tips. Follow them, and the arm flab will come right off. It's not as hard as you think.

Finally, I would like to mention that you shouldn't get discouraged if you stray from your diet. You see, it is impossible to eat perfectly all the time. Even the best dieters cheat. But the main difference is that they get back on track much faster than the average person.
