Fat Loss versus Muscle Loss
1. To lose body fat you must eat fewer calories than your body burns off, so EAT LESS -- but you must NOT starve yourself, otherwise you will lose more muscle than fat!
2. Start eating 5-6 meals per day (space them out to about one every 3 hours). You are eating more often, but not necessarily more.
3. Increase your protein intake. Without protein your body cannot build new muscle. Protein also helps to increase your metabolism - which burns calories.
4. Increase you water intake. A good formula for this is to multiply your bodyweight by .66 to get the required number of ounces per day.
