Hey!! I'm planning on to shed my weight in order to have a healthy body. I usually don't give much attention to my body but recently I started having many health issues and my GP asked me to take proper rest and also to watch my eating style. So my elder brother told me to look for a good diet plan which does not compromise on my health. He also told me about the Harvey Brooker's (Toronto) healthy eating program ( http://www.harveybrooker.com/mens-diet-and-weight-watcher-plans/ ). Has anyone heard about this? The relationship between my brother and me is not that cool. He just always orders me and I need to do it. So I'm just scared to ask him the details regarding this. I hope I could get an answer from here. Thanks for your time!!
Focus on fat-loss rather than weight loss. It is important to build a good muscle mass by incorporating a balanced protein-carbs-fat diet. When I say carbs, focus on eating complex carbs rather than simple carbs. Eat sweet potato, green veggies and fruits. Get your good fat by eating avocados, VCO, Omega3 from salmon/tuna and etc (eating fat will never make you fat). Proteins from lean meat and fishes.
I suggest that you should be aware of fad diets and try to avoid it. Work out is a must. A variety of work-out should be introduced every day. (e.g MWF- cardio, pilates and weight lifting exercises T-TH-S core strengthening, endurance training).
In my experience cardio in fasting state makes your body burn much more fat. So I do cardio in my 16 hr. of intermittent fasting. Of course, sleep is important too!

The ideal way to get fit is through regular exercise.
Which physical activities look appealing to you??
