Sugar-free Fat Loss Facts
You don't really want to "lose weight". More accurately, you want to lose fat, not muscle nor water weight.
There are two ways to lose fat (anything else is a gimmick)
- eat less food
- increase activity level
No supplement - on its own - will make you lose fat. At best, a supplement may help you attain more benefit from exercise or make a diet more pleasant. There are no silver bullets or magic potions.
Building muscle is the "investing" of the fat loss world:
muscle burns calories even when you are at rest. Unlike financial investing however, muscle is a risk-free investment! And it starts paying dividends immediately.
"Miracle diets" are miraculous only in that people still fall for them. Long term fat loss requires a balanced diet, including a healthy amount of carbs, fats and protein. Fad diets are only sustainable short term, and/or have negative health side effects.
There is no away around the reality that consistent long term fat loss requires a lifestyle change - you can't just "do something" for 3 months and then go back to your old ways, and expect to keep the fat off. Consistent, sustained effort is mandatory for success.
