Hi everyone Just checking in on how your journey to a “healthier me” is going..
Some Food for thought….
our bodies are not simple machines where we can track weight gain by just tracking calories you take in compared to calories you burn. This is akin to when i was a chid i thought like a child…
- cals in > cals out = weight gain.
- eating FAT causes you to gain FAT (weight)
This thinking has led to the standard american diet, Diabetes, Heart Disease, Obesity.
But it doesn’t work that way. Science & Research has shown us that eating low calories and exercising more does work, but it isn’t sustainable! Just look at why there is no reunion show for the biggest looser. They loose a ton of weight but gain it all back. You must break the cycle.
I believe you can follow several nutrition plans but they must meet a few tenants to work…
- Change what you eat – less sugar, less starch, more veggies
- Get into Ketosis – when your body burns fat natural
- Makes sense – Eat less processed manufactured, more real foods
- You feel good – Achieve your goals with sustainable results
I’ve been following a ketogenic low carb diet for over a year now. At first i didn’t realize what it was called, i just changed what i ate, resulting in my body going into ketosis to burn fat and as a result lost weight and felt great. I did a ton of research into how the body works, obesity, and diabetes, so what i did made sense. And i’ve been like this for over a year. It works.
