The easiest way to describe the process of getting leaner tighter and more toned would be to compare it to a sculptor who chips away slowly little by little working to create his masterpiece. Everyday you workout and watch what your eating your chipping away getting closer and closer to the vision you have in your mind. The masterpiece though will never be completed if you don't keep working at it if you stop doing the work you will remain the same. The process can be frustrating at times because once you get to the last 10 pounds it really holds on for dear life and when you think that was hard wait till you see what a battle the last 5 can be....BUT it's worth every bit of work and effort. What it comes down to is how bad do you want it? I wanted it that bad ...I didn't worry how long it was going to take I just focused on doing the work. Everyday doing cardio and hitting my workouts hard and yes it gets rough your energy does drop when your cutting weight but in order to get it off that's what it takes.
Once you learn what works for you it becomes just a regular routine and over time you can eventually cut back on the cardio and get to where every other day is enough to maintain your weight. The onlt time i do cardio everyday now would be to tighten up a little more for a photo shoot etc.
I have people ask how long it took me to get where I am today and the answer is years...years of learning and tinkering with my nutrition until it was perfect for (me). I don't read too much into what others do for training or nutrition I wanted my own plan based on what I could maintain.
I believe the only way to know your on target with your weight loss is to weigh in each week on the same day mine was always Sunday morning on an empty stomach and follow my plan all week of clean eating and great workouts and if i didn't lose atleast a half a pound I slightly cut back in my day so for instance if i would have 2 flatouts I would cut back to 1 and a half ....next week weigh in and then i got the 1/2 pound loss I was looking for (that's all I did) it's not that hard.
The harder you make it the harder it is when I relaxed and just did it that's when the results came..BUT if you dwell daily on seeing results and fight the process mentally then you will not see them. If your mind doesn't believe it's possible either will your body.
MINDSET IS THE KEY!
I never counted calories there is no need to on my plan I eat low carb and high protein & good fats the only thing I ever watched was my amounts of fruit and fats. My protein is the base of all of my meals and I build from there. I do not measure out my veggies they are my main source of my carbs and I eat as many as I want which is tons :)
I got my results by working really hard and not giving myself any other option I wanted it and went after it with a determined mindset....you can do it I'm living proof!!
YOU GOT THIS ....IT'S YOURS FOR THE TAKING!!
