If you want to lose weight in 2025 then here are four simple steps that you will want to use to drop body fat and get in shape fast. This video will show you the exact amounts of protein, water and carbs that you will want to eat if you are interested in losing weight in the new year.

It starts with recognizing where you struggle with eating right now. 99 out of 100 people tend to have difficulties with carbohydrates, either in eating too many of them or not knowing how to stop eating them once they start. That said, carbohydrates are a critical part of a well rounded nutrition plan. This is especially true for athletes who rely on carbs to fuel their bodies and performance. So I’m not saying that you should avoid them all together as that would be a big mistake.

Instead, you need to know how to create an eating plan that includes carbs but gives you strategies for overcoming the two most common pitfalls of carbs in the diet plan. These are overeating and grazing.

To combat the desire to constantly grab small amounts of food throughout the day you will find that adopting an intermittent fasting approach will be a great way to start learning the habits needed to decrease your grazing. Now you won’t have to do this forever, unless you decide that this lifestyle works for you long term.

Instead, start with a short term adoption of either an 8, 6 or 4 hour eating window. It is going to be best to start with the least restrictive window which would be 8 hours. It is within this 8 hour window that you will allow yourself to eat. For the remaining 16 hours of the day you will not. It is important to note that the most success with this strategy is going to come by offsetting this window with the hours that are most troublesome for you right now in terms of grazing.

As you start to see success with this intermittent fasting approach you can increase the restricted eating window to 6 hours.

Now, if your problem is that you are having trouble with portion sizes and overeating then the best approach for you to adopt as a strategy for getting on track is the plate division method. Imagine the plate that you are staring down at as a clock. Make note of the times nine o’clock and nine twenty. This is going to create three separate portions on your plate. The second largest portion should be occupied by lean protein like chicken, fish or lean beef. The largest portion should be occupied by fibrous carbohydrates like broccoli, spinach, asparagus, squash or other green leafy vegetables. The smallest portion, but still one quarter of your plate, should be reserved for your starchy carbs like pasta, rice, or beans.

The dedication to protein on your plate is going to not only help with satiety but most importantly, control the type of weight loss that you are experiencing in 2025. It is not enough to just lose weight fast. You want to be sure that the weight that is lost is coming from stored body fat and not from the lean muscle tissue that actively helps to keep your metabolism elevated and capable of burning more calories at rest.

On this note then it is important that you aim to get 1.0g to 1.2g of protein per pound of bodyweight per day. If you were a 160lb person this would mean that you would want a minimum of 160 grams of protein per day with upwards of 200 grams if able.

Protein helps to control the type of weight lost. Sure, the law of thermodynamics states that if calories in is less than calories out then you are going to lose weight, but from where is the question. You want to be sure that the loss is coming from body fat and not lean muscle tissue.

To this end you also want to be sure that you are staying hydrated. Aim for .5 ounces of water per pound of bodyweight on the absolute low end with up to .75 or even 1 ounce per pound of bodyweight on the high end.

The hydrated muscle is not only going to look and perform better but it is going to keep your mental acuity and focus up which will help you to maintain the commitment to doing the steps above correctly.
