Burn more calories than you take in. It’s that simple.

The number of calories you consume has to be less than the number of calories you burn…that’s by far the most basic principle.

Certainly, burning more calories than you take in is the ‘way’ to lose weight. However, equally important is the rate at which you lose weight.
People should aim to lose (or gain for that matter) no more than 1 pound per week. Crash dieting causes the body to use up glycogen (source of instant energy) which is bound in lean material (muscle and liver) by water. Therefore, if you crash diet, you use up glycogen which releases water which you excrete giving you the false impression that you have lost many pounds of weight, when all it is is water. When you then eat normally again, the water piles back on and so does the weight.
Steady calorie controlled diet works best.

Okay, let’s talk.
Weight loss becomes more difficult as you get older and your metabolism slows. The golden rule as you asked it is this: in order to lose weight you have to expend more than you take in
This is accomplished best if calories are expended by a combination of diet exercise.
I love to eat and my body type is extomorph that is medium; whereas, endomorph is small and megamorph is large. So, in order to eat what I want, within reason, I have to workout two hours a day, six days a week using a combination of aerobic, anaerobic, and Martial Arts. This works for me because I don’t diet; however, even with a workout regimen as aggressive as this I still will never achieve a six-pack with out dieting, some.
I hope that I was of some help…it is not magic if you want to change than a change in life style is necessary. Study is absolutely essential look into diet exercise. By cutting out fat, starches, suger along with a workout program of aerobic anaerobic exercise you can get where you want to be and feel fantastic in the process.
p.s. I do write a Martial Arts Blog on my 360 page if you are interested.
