Time for Fat Loss

“Fat loss is an all-out war. Give it 28 days — only 28 days. Attack it with all you have. It’s not a lifestyle choice; it’s a battle. Lose fat and then get back into moderation. There’s another one for you: moderation. Revelation says it best: ‘You are lukewarm and I shall spit you out.’ Moderation is for sissies.”

— Dan John, legend

I’ve been training people for a long time. I own a gym that has several trainers training several people. Despite all the athletes we’ve worked with over the years, by far the single biggest client request has been fat loss.

I’ve made more money from the fat loss market than any other single client group. Over the years my methods have evolved and been refined by what I see in the gym. Simply put, if I can get 20 pounds of fat off a client faster than my competition, I have a higher demand for my services.

I’ve written several articles on fat loss and answered countless questions on the topic. One of the questions I get a lot is:

” I’m trying to lose fat. How can I do that without  losing muscle.”

As for your work and school, join the club. I’ve had a few clients who are full-time single mothers going to night school and working multiple jobs.

It’s not an impossible schedule, you are just choosing it to be. Everyone has the same hours in the day. If a woman I know whose husband was recovering from brain surgery could take care of him, teach him how to walk and talk and rehabilitate him, raise her children, work full time, run a part-time coaching practice and lose over 100 pounds at the same time, I know you can, too, if you choose.

There are always challenges, the key is to live in the solution. Your suggestion sounds awesome. The two keys are going to be to find what little time you have during the week and focus on that to prepare meals that are “grab and go” throughout the week (I did this when I was working as a manager at a software firm, going to night school, and running a part-time training business – I’d cook on Sunday and tupperware/bag the meals and just grab them).

The other challenge is to really focus on time management and organization. Take some courses or read a book. If you’re like most people, you probably spend at least 5 or 10 minutes in the car each day. That’s the perfect time for a book on audio.

You can succeed just by creating 15 – 30 minutes each day. It may seem impossible but let’s face it. Rest is important, but at times, it doesn’t have to be the main priority. You can cut into 15 or 30 minutes of rest and create that time to manage your coming day. The human body can do amazing things when pushed to reveal it’s inner power, and this should not be a condition for the rest of your life, so it’s not a permanent solution but one that “rolls with the punches” so to speak.

A good way of losing weight is to combine a good diet with comfortable weight loss workouts. These have become topical subjects covered by popular magazines. The magazines often carry stories of some star or model having successfully lost weight or become shapely due to some diet or workouts. There are also stories on low calorie diet, calorie burning workouts and other weight loss programs. Weight loss pills, health drinks, syrups, capsules, shakes, weight loss supplements and many other recipes for quick weight loss pop out of these magazines. So are there websites in the Internet that give propound the worthiness of all these recipes and programs. These have become topical subjects and rightly so. Obesity has reached epidemic proportion.

There is a misconception that one of the most effective ways to guaranteed weight loss is to shift to a starvation diet. You cannot be more wrong. The body when starved actually lowers the metabolic rates instead of burning away the fat. A body normally requires 1800 calories daily intake. The body reacts negatively when the calorie intake goes below 1200. Rather than starve, it makes more sense to maintain the normal calorie intake but take a well balanced diet instead. Along with this, a regular physical exercise should reduce your weight.

Recipes that claim miraculous loss of weight is plenty in the market. Many of these claims are unbelievable. There are also numerous weight loss supplements that promise appetite loss. These are hot products in the market. But then you need to check them out for its genuineness. Make sure that there are no side effects that cause problems to your health. The fat loss programs should be verified for its effectiveness.

The weight loss programs and various health fads that abound the market will entice you. These are touted as the ideal and most effective formula that you have been hoping to discover. A quick and dramatic weight loss is assured. But then you should know that any weight loss program that assures you an instant weight loss can be unhealthy as your health is adversely affected. In fact, a slow steady moderate weight loss program along with a balanced diet that you can sustain long term will offer you better health in your life.

If you are ready to get in shape and lose those unwanted pounds, then you need to get into an exercise program that is suited just for you. You can have a tailored program if you know how to get started in the right way. A lot of people would like the atmosphere of a gym while some would rather workout in the privacy of their home. Either way, you are going to need to take the right steps in your endeavor to lose weight and get trim.

Your body is unique and toning your muscles is going to depend on your trouble spots. You can do the classic generic exercises as well, but you are going to need a few special ones to target those problem areas. You should think about getting a personal trainer or going to a gym for that reason.

When you start a diet, you want to make sure that you include all the nutrients that your body is going to require on a daily basis for normal functions. You are going to want to do do this while also making sure you have a low-calorie intake as well. You will need the correct amounts of carbohydrates while also making sure that your protein intake is at a level that will allow you to retain lean muscle growth. This is especially important when you are weight-training in your exercise program.

The worst thing you can do when you decide to lose weight is to go on a crash diet. Having the patience to lose those unwanted pounds in a healthy way is important in your being able to maintain a healthy weight. You will need the right vitamins and minerals especially when you are exercising.

One good tip to follow before you start to diet and exercise is to look for weight loss books that can help you in doing things the right way. You should visit your local library or bookstore to get some titles that are going to help lead you to success in the best and healthiest way possible.

You may as well face the fact that you re going to have those times during dieting when you are going to feel like throwing in the towel. To help you avoid binging during these times, make sure you are going to have the support of family and friends. Being able to talk to someone during these times may help a lot in avoiding failure in your weight loss plans.

You should always remember that you are doing the right thing for your health when you choose to lose weight and get into shape.

Sooner or later you finally say to yourself, I have to lose some weight.  It might even be your doctor giving you the ultimatum.  “Lose that weight now or you are going to have serious health problems soon”, he says.

You may also feel depressed which is also a two edged sword.   When we need to lose some fat from our bodies, we sometimes get depressed about it.   Depression tends to make us want to eat and eat and eat.   We eat and eat, we get fatter than we were.  It’s a vicious circle.

You have tried all of the gimmick pills and diets.   Still no loss in weight.   You have joined weight watchers, still no loss in weight.

So what can we do to get our life back in order and find that weight loss secret that is so elusive?   What can we do to crack the fat loss code?

Luckily, there are programs out there that actually make sense and go beyond the stupid diets pills, exercise plans.  You need to do what your body wants to do, naturally.   Maintain it’s own weight.   Your body is designed to handle regulating your weight.   This is true for just about everybody except maybe someone who may have a thyroid problem or such but most everyone else has a built-in mechanism for controlling your weight.

Your body has a metabolism that is responsible for keeping everything in balance.   Over load it and you will never see loss weight.  Under load it and you can have sever medical problems. You can start to gain weight by under loading (not eating).  Your weight problems begin due to your body starving and wanting to hold all the fat it can generate because it is confused and doesn’t know when your next meal will be.

Your body’s metabolism is actually too smart for its own good but it is basically a survival mechanism that most of us really don’t need anymore since we have plentiful food. In earlier days when food was scarce, we needed to store up calories as fat and then use that fat when food was hard to come by.

Now that food is plentiful; your body stores the calories away as fat and plans to use them.  If the need never comes to use them there is no fat loss so you get bigger and bigger.

Some people’s metabolism is faster than others which means they can eat and eat and never seem to gain a pound.   Then others have a slow metabolism which no matter how little they eat, the body decides to store the fat.  The older you get, the slower your metabolism, thus when you get older, you start to gain weight.

There are plans that utilize and train your metabolism (almost tricking it) to use your fat store and then properly eat up the calories as needed.  Some seem a bit harsh but the facts, plan and methods work the way that your body wants to work.  They are a metabolic training system for your body.  No Pills, Gimmicks or tricks.  Just pure basic body science.   Your metabolism will speed up and keep your calories burned off.   You are told exactly what to eat, when to eat and why.   You would need to decide for yourself though if this plan is the right one for you as with all diets.  No diet out there will work if you don’t commit to it. 

So…start a loss weight program, crack the fat loss code and start losing weight.  Start feeling better about your self and the depression will also slip away.   It’s a win-win.   A happier, Healthier you.

When I was looking for dieting information to try to lose weight and reduce the fat in my body I was hard pressed to find anything worth really getting myself involved with.

Programs like Atkins and South Beach are loaded with pitfalls. You clog your arteries with all the fatty foods and meats you consume in Atkins all the while losing the nutrients you gain from the good carbohydrates you will not be ignoring.

South Beach is not a bad program, but if you are on a budget most people could not afford it. There are always all liquid diets which are high in sugar – but that never ends the cravings of food. Then I found fat loss 4 idiots, an interesting new concept in dieting.

If you are a certified moron, idiot or diet newbe then you should definitely look into the fat loss 4 idiots diet. I mean, seriously – losing fat, burning calories and trimming down is not rocket science but all of these doctors, diet people, life coaches and the like all love to make it seem like it is – I think it’s how they feel in control and get you to “trust” them by appearing smart.

Losing weight for a moron cannot possibly be that hard. In fact, fat loss 4 idiots nearly guarantees that you lose nine pounds in eleven days. Granted – that’s a bit high of an estimate. Most people lose three to five pounds every eleven days. Still – that is nothing to turn your nose up at.

Do you really want to spend your days calculating numbers? With some of these diets you need to have a master’s degree in mathematics. I do not have one – a lot of people do not so the answer is pretty simple – not on your life.

Dieting does not mean having to ignore the foods you like – doing so makes a diet unbearable. Fat loss 4 idiots – a diet for morons like me (and others) says to have no fear. There is no need to participate in low-calorie diets, low-card, low-fat, high-carb diets. It’s not needed!

So – what is it really?

Fat Loss 4 Idiots is a budget diet that is on the web – now, I know what you’re thinking and yes – it REALLY does work! And it works a lot better than most of the other diet plans, systems and gimmicks available today. It’s essentially a meal plan – no horrendous workouts. Here is an idea of what your meals could look like for a several day spread:

They break up your meals into four (catchy piece in the name of the plan!) so for day 1 you could have some flavored oatmeal, tuna salad, scrambled eggs and a sandwich of your choosing. Not too bad, right? It’s a real day – normal. Day 2 is not much different. Banana milk shake, some scrambled eggies with mixed veggies, a spot of cottage cheese and chicken – all good stuff.

Fat Loss 4 Idiots is simple and cheap – it’s at your fingertips when you need it!

Obesity has become a major epidemic problem that has gripped all of the age groups. Men, women
and children. Natural fat loss is the best place to start for the obese person and with minimal exercise
will gently get the person on the right course to a better life.

Just about everybody in all walks of life are looking for the easy way out of the obesity trap.

It certainly is not easy with all of the mis-information that can be found regarding the subject of
obesity. No fat, low fat, high protein, low carb, glycemic index, exercise are just az few terms that we
are all told is the cure for obesity.One definition of Obesity is a state of the body where the weight of
the body is higher, by 10% than the bodies ideal weight or body mass index. When weight of the body
is higher by 20%, this is considered severe obesity. This range leads to many different diseases and
will likely shorten the life-span of a person diseases include but not limited to, high blood pressure,
osteoarthritis and diabetes. Obesity has many limiting factors and decreases the quality of a persons
life.

When the bodies Caloric intake exceeds caloric expenditure, the body stores the excess. So in order to
shed extra fat we must reverse this proportion. A natural fat loss plan should be followed, that it might
continued for a long duration. Using strict and restricted diet programs with dangerous diet pills and
supplements becomes hard to follow and fat loss will be for short term only not to mention the health
risks that are involved.

Follow a proper and sensible diet program makes the most sense. Begin with a low carbohydrate
medium-fat and high protein diet for best results.

The list below shows the recommended food items which are to be avoided and those which can be
consumed by the vegetarians and the non-vegetarians.

Eat as much of these as you like.

1. Vegetables and green salads (specifically one that contain tomatoes and cucumbers)
2. All fresh fruits (no bananas)

The limited quantity food items.

1. Milk (250 ml or half a bottle or one and a half cupful). Daily amount and use in tea and coffee.
2. Butter, ghee (Ghee is used in India), oil and cream – 2 to 3 small tea-spoonfuls. Stick to very
conservative amounts do not over do it
3. Three to four chapattis (no ghee at all here) each day or 1 to 2 oz (small bowl)
4. One small bowl of dal or Green gram (moong) soup for the day.
5. Two small potatoes per day.
6. Fish
7. Meat
8. Eggs

Eat only from the list of foods above without over doing it.

These food items and ingredients are restricted completely, do not eat them at all

1. Sugar, chocolate, peppermint, all sweets, all jams, honey, you get the point.
2. Fruit-juices (very high in sugars)
3. Alcohol (not even wine)
4. Biscuits, cakes, generally all grain products
5. Ice cream (not even all natural ice cream)
6. No soda pop of any kind
7. All other grains not mentioned

If you simply make the decision to follow a natural fat loss program and then plan for it in advance it
makes it that much easier to implement.
