Diet is a huge, so to speak, part of the fat-loss equation. It's the backbone of your entire plan, the foundation of a hard body. Bodybuilding nutrition consultant Jim Juge says nutrition determines your success or failure, plain and simple. The diet is 65% of what you need to get in shape, he says.
The trick is in not seeing the diet as the solution. The diet is a tool, but the ultimate goal isnât to be on a structured eating plan for the rest of your life. The goal is to have the freedom to make food choices solely depending on what you WANT to eat (which by the way is also healthy too) rather than what you think you have to eat.
