The Only Weight Loss Diet That Worked for Me

FINALLY A DIET THAT WORKED FOR ME!

Like you I have tried most of the weight loss or diet plans out there only to end up discouraged when the weight did not come off.

Once I learned the science of what affects the human biology, everything changed for me. I LOST 35 POUNDS (MY GOAL) AND NEVER GAINED ANY OF IT BACK.

I am simply going to share with you my personal experience having success losing the excess weight I wanted to lose. After having visited my doctor for a regular check-up and being told I was in the obese category for my height and weight, and just generally feeling sluggish, tired, and energy deficient, I decided to make a change. Yes, unfortunately, there is effort required to actually attain the better health you desire.

If you truly want to lose the weight then you will follow just 3 basic steps. These are how I became successful losing the desired weight: Determination, Low Carbohydrate diet, Moderate exercise.

Let me start with number 1 and explain how I was able to exercise determination throughout my efforts to lose weight. First, I had finally obtained the correct information as to how to go about properly and safely losing excess weight. The basic concept: "TRAIN YOUR BODY TO BURN FAT RATHER THAN CARBOHYDRATES! I learned some basic biology.

The human body takes a lot of energy to run all its systems; blood flow, brain function, etc. As we take in food it is converted into energy. The two basic sources are Carbohydrates and/or fats. Where we gain our excessive weight or fat layers on our bodies is through taking in too much carbohydrate (fast food, white breads, sugar, pastas, etc). When this balance is off the body will burn carbohydrates for energy instead of fat. Changing this process to burn Fat instead is called ketosis. You are in essence training your body to burn fat and even the excess fat reserves for energy. The pounds disappear and the inches around the waist diminish. The ideal guide is about 40% carbohydrates, 40% protein, and 20% fats.

The idea is to eat plenty of food at about 4 to 6 meals per day (moderate low carb meals). Your body never panics about being in "famine mode" with this type of schedule. Frequent feedings are of particular importance since after three or four hours of no food your body switches to the CATABOLIC state (a state in which you lose muscle and gain fat). The body believes that it is starving and it starts feeding itself on lean muscle tissue and it prepares to store calories as fat.

You will find very quickly with a low carb diet you will rarely be hungry - your body will find enough "fuel" within its own fat cell storage. So, the more you know the better prepared you will be on your way to a HEALTHIER YOU!

Now for item number 2. The Low Carb Diet. Note here that every meal should have correct portions of Carbohydrates, Proteins, and Fat. If you only eat carbohydrates in one meal without anything else, your energy levels will crash in about 30 minutes and your body will be storing any carbohydrates that were not used into fat.

Low carb diet does not mean NO CARB! Nor does it mean you stop carb intake for prolonged or indefinite periods. Achieving ketosis state requires a drastically reduced carb intake at first for maybe 15 to 30 days. Once your body has changed to the fat burning process for energy, then increasing carb intake is recommended. I reduced my carb intake drastically for the first 30 days re-training my body to change to the fat burning mode and then started adding additional carb intake until within 120 days I had reached my goal of losing 35 pounds. I began adding additional carb intake gradually until I found the right amount that maintained my desired weight.

You are changing the way you eat and what you eat. It is a lifestyle change for sure. The world we live in today bombards us with High Sugar foods, High Carbohydrate foods, and Huge quantities of food. First, you need to clear out the junk food. Get rid of the candy, chocolate (I use sugar free chocolate treats), ice cream (here again I use sugar free), etc. No matter what method you want to use to lose weight, that junk food has to go.

Here are the basics:

* Water - this is the most important item in any diet. At least 8 glasses per day

* Cheese - whatever types you like, get a variety

* Greens and Broccoli

* Snacking Veggies - carrots, celery, cucumbers, eggplant, zucchini, cauliflower

* Cooking Veggies - tomatoes, green beans, asparagus, and others

* Fresh meats - fish, beef, pork, tuna, ham, turkey, etc. You will be surprised what you can find in the grocery store for low carb meats. I get beef hot dogs which are only 2 carbs each.

* Vitamins - multiple vitamin and mineral

The third and final basic step is moderate exercise. I say moderate because excessive, daily, and/or exhaustive exercise is not required. Remember I said some effort is required. Well, I found weight loss success with just 20-30 minutes a day on the treadmill (walking briskly) 3-4 times a week. No gym membership, no exhaustive aerobics, no pounding the IRON. I was consistent and determined. If you do not have exercise equipment at home than just a brisk walk around your neighborhood 3 to 4 times a week works great.

Having just visited my doctor for the regular check- up he was amazed at the change in my weight and lab work. The weight is steady and in the right place. The lab work came back very positive as my cholesterol readings were much improved from before losing the weight and the moderate exercise. The proof is in the exam results.

Once you have put into practice this weight loss process that works please write me and let me know of your success.
