“What should I eat to lose weight and reduce body fat?”
This is a question, or a variation of a question that we hear A LOT! The reality is that with all of the competing interests out there, it’s hard to know what to eat for maximum health, weight loss, body fat reduction and maintenance of lean muscle.
We want to take the guesswork out of it for you

The 3 Fundamentals of Nutrition for Weight Loss Are….
- Balanced meals – meals that have the proper balance of macronutrients (fat, protein, carbohydrate). Beware of “diets” that promote a single macronutrient as the key to success (high protein diets, low carb diets, no fat diets). It’s never about ONE of the macronutrients, it’s about how you balance ALL THREE OF THEM. Yes, you need all three! This meal plan, which is taken directly from our TakeDown LifeStyle Nutrition Coaching Program, presents balanced meals that are delicious.
- Precise portion sizes – we’ve all heard of 1,200 calorie “diets,” or 1,500 calorie “diets,” but are we really to believe that a “one (portion) size program” fits everyone? That doesn’t make sense. We are all similar but different; similar enough to require the same kinds of micro/macronutrients, but different enough to require them in different amounts! If you want a specific result you need to take a specific approach; specific, in this case, to your individual goals, lifestyle and metabolism. You need precise portions calculated by a professional, a general approach won’t do.
- Proper meal spacing – the current belief is that you should eat several meals throughout the course of the day and provide your body with regular doses of nutrition every couple of hours. is this the best approach for burning body fat? Would it surprise you to find that the answer is “no?” There is a better way to space your meals to produce better fat burning on a daily basis.
Forget the word “diet.”
“Diet” is literally and figuratively a 4 letter word. Throw it out. “Diets” are about deprivation, about what you CAN’T do. “Nutrition” is about fueling your body, about what you MUST do. This 3 Day Meal Plan is an example of how to abundantly and properly fuel your body for improved health, fat loss and improved performance.
