How to be slimmer in less than a month by easy works and keep healthy

April 20, 2008

Twenty days before her prom night, my sister complained, The heck with your diet idea…I need to lose 11 pounds and lose it fast.

Unfortunately, we have became accustomed to direct gratification and want that happened every times. With weight reduction, it just can’t happen directly. Yes, I can show my sister how to lose weight quick, but I can’t insure she’ll cope with it longer.

And geez what it’s all about? Holding weight off and not needing to healthy diet in the first place–this is your goal.

Instant weight loss is not the answer; instead, it is the trouble. Trying to lose weight quick causes physiological changes that promote weight gain, the exact opposite of keeping weight off.

However, people, like my doughter, want to lose weight quick. So is there a means to achieve fast weight loss and not lead to future body weight gain? Apparently not.

But I do have a system for fast weight reduction while minimizing the future weight gain potential implied in fast weight loss system.

Direct Weight Loss Program

1. Week One, Part One, drink a protein shake supplement daily. Ignore anything. Drink a protein shake contains a 50:50 portion of whey to casein proteins. The perfect timing to drink the protein shake following on your body rhythm.

a protein shake between breakfast and lunch or between lunch and dinner. That’s all following on when you have the longest period of fasting.

Part Two Run a body works, with the first step simply stretching your muscle groups. This simple activity increases the tonal stimulation to muscles causing them to use more calories at rest. Plus it protects against injuries.

2. Week Two Begin dieting by replacing 1/2 of a meal with the same protein shake from previous step. Do this for whole week.

3. Week Three Replace all portion of meal with a protein shake. Modify the mixture of the protein shake to 60% whey and 40% casein proteins. This composition contains about a 500 calorie less.

4. Week Four Cut caloric uptake by another 250 calories. I suggest adding another protein shake, made up of the same 60:40 mix and use it to replace 1/2 of a another meal. Record the daily progress. Never let it reach a rate of more than 4 pounds reduction per week.

5. Week Five Continues Week four.

6. Week Six Take back the last 250 calories you reduced and don’t continue the second shake.

Leveling on Your Diet Programs

April 27, 2007

Life in the 21 st century means a lot of number to remember, what with Cell-Phone number, Bank Numbers and the like, but I’m going to give you the tools to find another number that is just as essential for your lifestyle. Remember these two basic principles when you do the diet your rate of weight loss is generally proportional to the amount of Carbohydrate you consume. The level of Carbohydrate you consume can be measured by attaching numerical quantities to the carbohydrate foods you’re eating. You know how much you can safely eat.

Your daily threshold of Carbohydrate consumption is your critical carbohydrate level for losing (CCLL) stay below this number and you will experience ongoing weight loss. Go above it and your weight loss stalls. Here is how you’ll determine your CCLL.

Each week you will increase the quantity of Carbohydrate you eat beyond the salad and one cup serving of vegetables allowed during this program. These increments should measure roughly 5 grams of daily Carbohydrate, representing one level during the first week of Owl. Increase your daily Carbohydrate intake from the 20 grams a day on induction to 25 grams a day.

I recommend you add either another salad, half an avocado, a cup of cauliflower or 6-8 stalks of Asparagus or another veggie. continues to eat this way for the rest of the week. As long as your weight loss continues steadily, you can go up another level 30 grams daily the following week. If you are vegetables lover, you may be happy continuing to add more salad greens and other vegetables. Or you may choose to add a half cup of cottage cheese, an oz of sun flower seeds, or a dozen macadamian nuts. If you have been feeling fruit deprived, now is the time to add berries, the fruit lowest on the Glycemic Index.
