- Crash Dieting
Apart from the obvious disadvantages of this method; general weakness and nutritional deficiencies. The weight lost from this method quickly regains as soon as the person starts eating again. And this time one may even gain weight above their starting point.
- Not Tracking your calorie Intake
You are not tracking your calories then you don’t know if you are in calorie deficit or not which is the most basic and essential requirement for fat/weight loss.
- Eyeballing food calories
People who are familiar with the concept of calorie deficit, often make this mistake of estimating food calories and not actually weighing it on scale. Make sure to weigh your food on scale.
- Not eating enough protein
Protein is the most important nutrient for fat loss. Researches show that high protein diets are more effective for fat loss. We know that everybody doesn’t want to make their muscles big and protein isn’t just for building muscles. High protein diet is equally important for fat loss and weight loss goals. And don’t worry eating protein will not make your muscles big magically overnight!

Fats are needed in many hormone production processes and other enzymatic processes without which we cannot function optimally. - Looking for shortcuts
