Weight loss is simple, right? Eat less, exercise more, and voilà: The pounds melt away. Unfortunately, it’s not always that easy. While a low 1200- to 1500-calorie diet works for many people, the number of calories you need depends on your weight, height, age, gender, and activity level.   We are joined today by Entrepreneur, Entertainer, Nutritional Therapist, the CEO of Clovis Culture, and the inventor of The Perfect Paleo Powder, Justin Nault. We talk about the importance of eating more when you’re trying to lose weight and increase your resting metabolic rate. He also shares the foods and fruits you should avoid even when you think it’s “healthy.”   Justin Nault is an Entrepreneur, Entertainer, Writer, and Nutritionist.
