Listed points: 

1- Consistency & patience

  • Stick with It: Changes won’t happen overnight. Consistency is key to seeing long-term results.
  • Monitor Progress: Track your progress through measurements, photos, or how your clothes fit rather than relying solely on the scale.

2- Have a calorie goal and figure out what’s best for you

  • Caloric Deficit: To lose fat, including love handles, you need to consume fewer calories than you burn. Track your intake to ensure you're in a calorie deficit.
  • Balanced Diet: Focus on whole foods such as lean proteins, fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats. Avoid processed foods, sugary drinks, and excessive saturated fats.
  • Hydration: Drink plenty of water. Staying hydrated can help with weight loss and reduce bloating.

3- Strength training and cardio

  • Strength train 4+ times a week
  • Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity cardio per week.

  • Sleep: Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep per night. Poor sleep can affect hormone levels and increase fat retention.
