This goes against everything you've been told about weight loss... But the truth is that eating less does NOT work to lose weight. Why? One word: Metabolism. You see... Everyone's metabolism is different. Some people are born with a crazy high metabolism that burns food off fast... While others suffer from a sluggish metabolism that stores more fat than it burns. That's why you see some people who can eat whatever they want and maintain a picture-perfect body year-round. They simply have a fast metabolism. So if you want to lose weight fast... The secret is to speed up your metabolism. Now, before I tell you how to do that... Here's why eating less actually slows your metabolism down even more: Have you ever started a diet... Lost a few pounds... But then, for some reason, you stopped losing weight? Don't worry... This happens to everyone. In fact, it's supposed to happen. Because when you eat less, your body thinks it's starving. So what does it do? It conserves energy by slowing down your metabolism. Not only that... But to ensure it has energy in the future, it holds onto fat. In other words... It kicks into survival mode because it doesn't know if, or when, it will get more food in the future. The good news? The metabolism can be "revved up" just as easily as it can be slowed down. How? By eating more! Now, I'm not talking about going on a week-long binge. I'm talking about a strategic approach that resets your metabolism so you can keep burning fat. So here's what you do: Every 4 days eat twice the calories you normally would. For example, if you're eating around 1400 calories to lose weight... Then on day 4, you'd eat 2800 calories. I know that sounds counterintuitive to eat 2x more. But I promise you that it works. Plus, knowing that you get to splurge every 4 days helps you stick to a healthier eating plan... Because you don't feel like you're missing out. So try it out. Enjoy a cheat meal every 4 days... And see how much easier it is to lose inches off your waistline. -John Carlisle |
