ecourse! How To Lose Weight For Free – And Keep It Off For Good!July 16, 2008 on 12:49 am | In Uncategorized | No CommentsMost people have no idea how much money the diet industry rakes in each year. Think $65 billion and you’re in the right ballpark – and the figure’s climbing exponentially. The reason so much money is being by spent by men and women around the world is because only a tiny percentage of them ever achieve their goals of losing weight and getting fit. We’re talking less than 5%, that means that out of every one hundred people who try to lose weight, less than five of them manage to do it AND keep it off for more than a few weeks or a month. So what’s the deal? Why are so many people trying and failing to lose weight? Is it really that hard? The answer is a resounding no. It doesn’t have to be hard if you know what you’re doing. Forget the short-cuts, the fad diets and the fancy exercise machines. If you want to transform your current body shape, size and appearance into your perfect physical form, you need to go back to basics. You need to return to the roots of natural, sustainable body improvement. That means diet and exercise in VERY specific types and quantities. If that sounds like hard work to you, like the long way round and something you can’t deal with, you may as well forget about achieving that perfect body weight and shape you’ve dreamed about for so long – because you’re not going to get it any other way. If you’re okay with that, however, then great! You’re ready to begin learning what you need to, not do, and how you’re going to use a special plan to transform your lifestyle and, as a result, your body’s weight and appearance. Let’s start with a few of the basics. Forget right away about cutting all fat out of your diet – it’s just not a good idea. Your body needs fat to work properly, without it you’ll feel deprived. What you should do instead is control the kinds of foods you eat that contain fats. Choose monounsaturated fats wherever possible. You’ll find these in olive oil, rapeseed oil and nuts. Avoid saturated animal fats such those found in butter, cheese and meat. You’re going to be cutting out a big chunk of the calories you usually eat each week, it’s this main change – combined with exercise – which is going to make you lose weight. So you don’t feel hungry or starved all the time, eat lots of multicolored vegetables and protein. Keeping your diet high in protein will help you feel full for much longer throughout the day. It’s okay to eat carbohydrates, but remember to balance your intake of high-carb foods. As a general rule, cut right down on carbohydrates such as white bread and white rice. Eat unrefined carbohydrates instead, such as whole-wheat pasta and brown rice. I recommended eating no carbohydrates after 5 PM each day, especially if they’re of the refined kind. If you need more advice on how much of this and how much of that you should eat, remember these general guidelines. Approximately 30 percent of your daily calorie intake should come from healthy fats, 25 percent should come from proteins and the remaining 45 percent should come from carbohydrates. Once you’re within those guidelines, control the portion sizes you eat. Eat three square meals a day, snacking in between them on healthy foods such as berries, nuts and cups of vegetable soup. It’s okay to mix up the foods you’re eating, just make a mental note of the number of calories you’re consuming each day. If you want to lose 2 lbs a week, every week, you need to eat 500 calories per day less than your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate). Once you know this figure, which sums up how many calories a day your body needs to function and maintain its weight, you need to eat 500 calories less than it each day. Click this link to use the ‘Perfect Body Plan’ BMR calculator to work out yours now. At the same time, you should be doing regular exercise. Playing a high energy sport twice a week is a good way to start. Try badminton or squash – playing each of these sports for a total of two hours a week will burn approximately 2000 calories. Add that 2000 to the 3500 calories you’ll be cutting from your new eating plan (500 less a day) and you’ll lose almost 2 lbs of fat a week. Combine those changes with extra daily exercise, such as walking and housework and you’ll lose even more. Just remember that to lose a lot of weight over the long-term, and keep it off, you need to make permanent changes to your lifestyle. They don’t have to be boring changes, though.

Some do it as part of a New Year’s resolution, others for a special occasion like a wedding or school reunion, and some do it simply because they’re unhappy with their weight – and have been for years - and want to change the way they look for the better. Unfortunately, most people who attempt to shed some weight see only a small amount of success, that doesn’t last for very long. Others see none at all. So what’s going on? Why is losing weight so hard? Why do so many people fail? And, perhaps most importantly, what can you do to make sure you aren’t just another person who ends up in the “tried and failed” category of dieters? The answer lies in two special things: knowledge and application. First you need to know exactly what to do, then you’ve got to do it. No ifs, not buts and no cutting of corners. Today is the perfect day to start expanding your knowledge. Once you have your plan in place, which contains every change you need to make and how you’re going to make it, you’ll be ready to begin losing weight. We’ll start by looking at 7 really powerful weight loss tips. These facts accurately sum up fundamental rules of successful weight loss that every person who’s serious about improving their body shape and size should know and remember: 1. Stop Searching For That Special Wonder-Method If you’re one of those people who has put off making a concerted, definite effort to lose weight using tried-and-tested methods, in the hope that you’ll be able to find and use a simpler, easier approach, you aren’t alone. It’s easy to put things off and blindly wait for a miracle method to come along and do all the hard work for you – but you have to realize that it’s never going to happen. The only way your body is going to be the way you want it to be is if YOU do what’s needed to get it that way. Once you accept that fact, you’re ready to really begin your journey. 2. Real, Long-Term Weight-Loss Is Only Accomplished Through Permanent Changes In Your Lifestyle, Not Through ‘Diets’ Because ‘diet’s’ are temporary, so are the results they bring about. Instead of saying to yourself, “Okay, today I’m going to start my diet!” say, “Today I’m going to change my lifestyle,” and focus on doing just that. 3. Don’t Let Your Initial Enthusiasm Overpower Common Sense Making those first few changes in your lifestyle and getting the ball rolling is great – you’re fired up and raring to go. But make sure you don’t let your surge of enthusiasm overpower your ability to make good decisions. You need to pace yourself and take things one step at a time. 4. Become Calorie Aware To lose weight consistently, at a significant but safe rate, you’re going to need to control the number of calories you consume on a daily and weekly basis. That means becoming aware of foods that are very calorific and foods that aren’t. You don’t need to become a nutritionist to do this though. Just get used to looking at food labels and keeping a running total of how many calories you consume throughout the day. 5. Set ‘Near’ Goals and ‘Far’ Goals It’s okay to dream about your perfect body and how great it will be once you’ve got it – in fact, it’s a really positive thing to do. It helps stay you motivated and working hard. However, it’s important you break your big end goal down into smaller chunks in the form of short-term goals. For example, to lose 2 pounds a week for a month. Or to fit into a certain pair of jeans you used to be able to comfortably wear a few years ago. 6. Don’t Starve Yourself Or Completely Avoid Eating Fats To lose weight and keep it off for more than a few weeks, you need to avoid skipping meals or otherwise starving yourself. It’s much better to eat little and often. Break up your three main healthy meals with equally healthy snacks to keep you from getting hungry and hankering after “bad” foods – a handful of nuts or a piece of fruit both do the trick nicely. Also DO NOT avoid all foods that contain fat. Your body needs fat to survive and stay healthy. Just focus on eating healthy fats, such as those found in Omegas 3, 6 and 9 – include them in your balanced diet to ensure your weight goes down and STAYS down. 7. Use A Complete Plan That Covers Each Of The Vital Areas Of Body Improvement If you want to lose weight and generally improve the overall health, fitness and appearance of your body, it’s no good only making one or two changes to your lifestyle. You need to use an approach that covers each of the necessary areas of improvement: psychology, motivation, goal setting, diet, fitness & exercise, etc. That doesn’t mean achieving your ideal physical form is going to be really hard or feel impossible, though. Just that to do it you need a complete approach that covers everything and misses out nothing. — ‘Perfect Body Plan’ is a brand new e-book that has been designed in a special way.
