Stap-voor-Stap Gids
Create a Calorie Deficit
Eat fewer calories than you burn. A 500 cal/day deficit = ~1 lb/week loss. Use a TDEE calculator to find your baseline.
Prioritize Protein
Eat 0.7-1g protein per pound of body weight. Protein keeps you full and preserves muscle during weight loss.
Move More (Any Way You Can)
Exercise burns calories and improves health. But daily movement (walking, stairs, standing) adds up more than gym time.
Be Patient and Consistent
Sustainable loss is 0.5-2 lbs per week. Focus on habits, not the scale. Progress isn't linear.
Veelgestelde Vragen
Do I have to cut carbs to lose weight?
Nee. Calorie deficit matters most. Low-carb works for some because it reduces appetite, but it's not required.
Waarom am I not losing weight?
Common reasons: underestimating calories, overestimating exercise, water retention, or eating back 'earned' calories.
Is het okay to have cheat days?
Occasional treats are fine. But a 'cheat day' can erase a week's deficit. Try a single cheat meal instead.
