I've just lost 20 pounds in 10 weeks, and here's exactly what I did to do that. But first, let me tell you what I didn't do. Number one, I didn't cut out all of my sugar. In fact, I've eaten sugar every single day, whether that be from healthy sugar like fruit or unhealthy sugar like cereal or treats. Second, I didn't cut out all of my carbs. I ate carbs every single day. Third, I didn't do any fasting. I ate before noon every day, and I ate after. 7 PM every day. Basically, I did everything the internet tells you you can't do if you're trying to lose weight. So how did I still see progress? Well, I tracked my calories every day, weighing out my food and making sure I was in a calorie deficit. Because as long as you eat less calories than you burn, you will lose weight.
