3-Month Weight Loss Program
By Fitness Atlantic Author Craig Ballantyne

If you want to burn fat fast, then use these 3 simple nutrition and workout tips to lose weight fast.

First, you need to tackle your nutrition. Without a doubt, what you eat has the greatest impact on your fat loss success. You can devour hundreds of calories in less than a minute, so be careful. So stick to these 3 rules at all times.

1) Don't eat any foods with added sugar or that come in a bag or a box. This will help you avoid high-calorie processed carbohydrates.

Don't eat sugar.

Focus on eating foods that contain fiber along with carbohydrates, such as apples and other fruits, oatmeal and other fiber-rich grains, and all different types of vegetables.

2) Avoid all liquid calories. This tip alone can result in almost overnight fat loss, and often adds up to over 10 pounds of weight loss.

So no more sodas, juices, energy drinks, Frappacinos, or other calorie-added beverages. Avoid mixed drinks because this can double your calorie intake.

3) Fill up on fiber rich foods at every meal. From oatmeal in the morning, to almonds between meals, and fruits and vegetables at lunch and dinner, you'll control your appetite by increasing your fiber intake.

Eat foods that go straight from the garden to your plate. You can also eat nuts, another great whole, natural food that gets a bad rap. Eat 1 ounce of almonds, walnuts or pecans everyday to help curb your appetite. Each half an ounce in the morning and half an ounce in the afternoon for snacks.

While nutrition is the key to fat loss, you can't maximize your fat burning without doing some type of exercise. The most important factor here is consistency, so choose something you like. When you are ready for advanced workouts, take these tips into account.

1) Do three 20-minute total body strength training workouts per week. Have a trainer show you how to do squats, pushups, rowing exercises, and other multi-muscle exercises that allow you to train lots of muscle groups in a short amount of time.

2) Do three 20-minute interval sessions per week immediately after strength training to complete a 45 minute workout. By alternating between hard exercise and easy exercise, you demand more from your muscles during the workout, and that burns more calories after the workout.

3) Stay active with fun, relaxing activities on your four "non-workout" days. Have fun with your kids, do yoga, walk the dog, or play sports.

You don't need to be in the gym everyday to get results. Make this plan your new lifestyle and you'll be over 10 pounds lighter in 90 days.
