You have always known it. You have always realized it. Every single time you tried some ridiculous fad diet you knew you were doomed to fail. You tired them anyway. Why? You tried because that's why you do. You try. You're not a quitter and you had no other options. You wanted to lose some weight and those commercials and all the hype seemed show people succeeding where you had failed. (You ignored that little disclaimer at the bottom of the screen that reads, 'Paid professional actors') Weeks go by even several months and everyday this stupid diet is on your mind. It interferes with your life and if you've lost any significant weight at all, you are starving for the good foods you've been denying yourself. You know in your heart that you'll never be able to give them up for the rest of your life and as soon as you go back to your old ways, your old weight is going to pile back on. What is it that you've always known? Simple. You've always known that you cannot lose weight unless you stop eating. It's a simple formula: CALORIES EATEN – CALORIES BURNED = (FAT STORED OR FAT BURNED) You must burn more than you eat to lose weight. You know it's true. You've tested the opposite of that theory. That big bowl of ice cream during a weekend NETFLIX binge. ( 2000 calories eaten – 10 calories burned going to the kitchen to get it = +1990 net calories) One pound of fat is about 3500 calories, so that one bowl of ice cream put over a half pound on you by itself, and who eats just one bowl of ice cream right? Then there's the soda, then there's the chips. Sunday night as you put yourself to bed you swear to yourself that tomorrow MONDAY you're starting that new fad diet you've been reading about. There's only one way to lose weight and keep it off and that is you have to stop eating so that you become hungry. Hunger pains are the body's way of telling you that you are burning fat. If you're never hungry then you'll never lose weight by losing fat. Most diets, what little results you'll get are just the losing of water weight that's why it returns as soon as you start eating normal again. I'm not talking about never eating I'm talking about not eating for periods of time. Not eating is called FASTING, not eating for controlled periods of time is called INTERMITTENT FASTING. If you're old enough you may remember that there was a time (before the FAD DIET era began in about 1980) when people were told that to be healthy it was important not to eat between meals. NO IN BETWEEN MEAL SNACKS Families that ate healthy home cooked meals together two or three times a day stopped doing so and started eating junk food and grabbing a burger. Just watch the old time shows like Leave It to Beaver or Andy Griffith and you'll get glimpse into a by gone era where no one dieted not because they necessarily worked hard physically but mainly because they didn't eat constantly every waking hour as most of us do today. They ate better and they ate less often. No one dieted and no one worked out and no one jogged. In a sense, everyone practiced INTERMITTENT FASTING...to be continued on the inside.
