How to eat out for all 3 meals in a calorie defici How to eat out for all 3 meals in a calorie deficit…

Travel season is here and with that comes eating on the go. And yes, you can absolutely eat out and still lose fat.

Fat loss doesn’t require perfection—it requires intention.

Following a plan that allows for flexibility is key. This way there is no “on the diet” and “off the diet” mindset. 

Do you struggle with tracking on vacation?

Fat loss uncovers a smaller version of your curren Fat loss uncovers a smaller version of your current shape…

Building muscle CHANGES your shape 👌🏻

Building muscle at maintenance calories will limit unnecessary fat gain.

Building in a surplus (eating more calories than you burn), in my opinion, is more suited to experienced individuals who know they are truly training effectively and understand pushing to failure. This way the extra food is truly used to build more tissue rather than being stored as fat.

Maintenance phases should be built into your “dieting roadmap” if your goal is changing your body composition.

Some things to focus on at maintenance: relationship with food, restoring biofeedback after your diet, building muscle by following a progressive overload strength training plan, optimizing hormones, and priming your body for your next fat loss phase. Ideally you want to spend the majority of your time here.
Why I love creating a meal plan to follow when my Why I love creating a meal plan to follow when my goal is fat loss:

• Helps ensure you’re hitting protein, fiber, and calorie targets
• Reduces the likelihood of impulse eating or binging
• Makes macro tracking more accurate
• Eliminates the daily “what should I eat?” stress
• Batch prepping + pre planning gives you more time back in your week
• Creates better consistency

Age 30: cardio was my only form of exercise. Now Age 30: cardio was my only form of exercise. 

Now: I prioritize weight training and sprinkle in some cardio. 

Cardio is great for overall health, and can be a tool used to further elicit a calorie deficit, but is not effective for FAT loss if that’s your only means of exercise. Weight loss, yes, but that can mean fat, muscle, tissue & water.

Strength training is far superior for fat loss as you’ll be building and/or maintaining muscle tissue, so targeting fat when losing weight.

Learning this changed the game for me. 

Building muscle through strength training gave me shape. Losing fat through a calorie deficit allowed that shape to show 🙌🏼

Mistakes I made that keep me “skinny fat” for Mistakes I made that keep me “skinny fat” for most of my 20’s + early 30’s. Swipe for details… 

“Skinny fat” is a body composition with low muscle mass and higher body fat, especially around the belly. This is the body composition a lot of women get when they lose weight and are chasing a number on the scale vs changing their body composition by adding muscle & losing fat.

Body recomposition takes TIME. Be patient + consistent. Like I always say, the time is going to pass anyways.

6 week cut: What I eat in a day Goals: 1650 calo 6 week cut: What I eat in a day 

Goals:
1650 calories
120-130g protein 
25-30g fiber 

Things that help me minimize hunger in a deficit: 

I don’t snack as snacks don’t fill me up and I’m constantly thinking about food. I prefer 3 larger meals and dessert after dinner vs smaller meals and frequent snacks. 

I build my meals around protein and fiber to help with satiety. 

I get good sleep! Often overlooked but our sleep plays a huge role in our appetite. I take 2 Serenity gummies around 8 each night then the night caps about 30 minutes before bed. The Serenity gummies help me to relax and fall asleep with ease. No grogginess. I wake up feeling refreshed. The night caps keep me asleep. You can save 15% on @curednutrition with code emma
When you are working on fat loss, your workouts sh When you are working on fat loss, your workouts should not change. Only your nutrition...

Exercise dictates the type of weight you lose. Weight training helps you build & maintain muscle so when you’re dieting you’re losing fat, not muscle.

Nutrition dictates how much. A calorie deficit is needed for weight loss. Adequate protein will help maintain muscle. Again, so we target fat loss.

A calorie deficit while weight training is the ultimate combo for changing your body composition (building muscle & losing fat) 🙌🏼
