The three easy tips dont require you to spend any extra money.

To get started, Leanne suggested planning all your meals in advance.

What details most peoples fat loss attempts is making spur of the moment nutrition choices negatively influenced by friends, family or colleagues, she explained.

A huge win for fat loss is to meal prep if you can.

If not, know what your meals will be each day so youre not spending additional mental energy thinking about them and then just saying, Screw it, Ill eat whatever because Im tired or cant be bothered cooking.

The nutrition expert, otherwise known as The Fitness Dietitian on social media, said you should load up on enough protein and vegetables at each meal.

95 per cent of the population dont eat enough vegetables, she revealed.

Healthy adults should have more than five serves of veggies a day thats at least two-and-a-half cups of cooked vegetables or five cups of salad.

Ensure every meal has ideally 20 to 40g of protein in it.

Finally, Leanne suggested adding a buffer to your weekend.

To achieve fat loss you dont have to be perfect or 100 per cent clean with your choices, she said.

But if you have heavier food and alcohol on the weekends, you need to buffer this with lighter days during the week.

Too many people dont so they dont achieve the fat loss they desire.

Last month, Leanne revealed the secret to sustainable fat loss was to focus on what you can add in instead of what you should take out.

If the thought of doing something to help you lose weight long term makes you want to cry... STOP, she said.

If you cant see yourself doing something for at least 12 months such as creating a sustainable habit out of it theres no real point doing it as any weight you lose doing the strict behaviour means youre likely to re-gain it again the second you stop doing the behaviour.

The young me tried cutting things out 100 times before I realised that adding IN more filling whole foods and allowing the treats in smaller amounts instead of restricting then bingeing on them was the KEY to balance long term.

Leanne said she has been able to stick with a healthy diet and lifestyle for more than 10 years now without falling off the wagon.

Here are four things that helped her lose weight sustainably:

Often when I work with my coaching clients, I increase the amount of food volume theyre eating but lower the overall calories and their body goes from holding onto weight to kick starting fat loss without feeling starving, she said.
