The reason people fail when deciding to start losing weight, get in shape or get healthy is..... People think they can immediately change their lifestyle habits but they don't understand it takes time to adapt to these changes.  The key is cutting cravings.

Even though we are eating enough, we are still malnourished because we tend to eat low-quality foods.  We need the proper nutrition in our bodies, and if we don't get it, we overeat by consuming every few hours.  If we had the right food we would eat less.

In the video "The End of Dieting - How to prevent disease", Dr. Joel Furhman M.D suggests high nutrient-rich foods that are low in calories. He recommends a daily diet of cruciferous vegetables which are dark green vegetables like broccoli, and spinach, then raw nuts, 1/2 cup beans, legumes, streamed greens and NO MEATS, SUGARS, SALTS, etc...to kill our food addiction.

However, this is too big of a jump for most people because you may not be excited about eating broccoli, and kale which is why many people turn to what we call as fake health food, which is food that is marketed to be healthy but is not.  Much of this healthy food may lead to long-term health problems down the road.

Instead of giving in to our junk food addictions, we want to add high-quality food to meals.  Here is another key to weight loss.  For many of us, we don't chew our food enough times to get the full nutrition out of it.

We overcook the food and that removes most of its nutritional value.  Plus we chew our food a couple of times to get the taste out and quickly swallow it.  To get the best nutritional value out of food, we need to chew it enough times to break it down into a soft consistency. 

One of the best ways to do this is by drinking vegetable smoothies, not juices. Juices have less fiber and when we drink fruit juice, there is no difference between orange juice and soda.  We need the fiber to fill us up and avoid the sugar that goes straight to our organs.  Smoothies, on the other hand, still contain the fiber we need and slow down the absorption of sugar into our bodies. Vegetable smoothies release nutrition for our bodies to get the most out of it.

I started out filling up on liquids and post poning my eating periods to later on during the day only eating 1-2 meals per day. Then I started to transition from liquids to drinking vegetable smoothies.

You need to have a balance! Yes, you need to include kale and other greens to get the proper nutrition your body needs, however, you need to make your smoothie tasty enough to finish it.  You also should keep in mind not to overdo it on the fruits. Just because fruit is natural doesn't mean it is always healthy. The fiber is what slows down the absorption of sugars however, sugar is sugar.

Over time you can begin to lessen the amount of fruit that goes into them.  If you are new to drinking smoothies, you may not know the best portion sizes for each ingredient to yield the highest nutritional value and have it still taste good.  Here is a sample for you to consider.
Vegtable smoothies is an easy transition for people to make because by adding fruit you can make your smoothies quite tasty. You may have heard not to add fruit to your smoothie which is partially true.

You will want to add greens to your smoothies because even 1 lb. of Kale has more than enough nutrition for the recommended daily dosage.  It also adds almost 15 grams of protein and is a great source of Vitamins A and C!  If you need vitamins in your diet, as long as you include a variety of fruits and vegetables in your smoothies, you will reach your daily recommendations.

So far you are doing:

1) Intermittent fasting
2) Skip breakfast - Do not eat before 11 am
3) Walking
4) You are now getting the proper nutrition you need.

For centuries the secret of wealth has been passed on from one generation to the next throughout the ages through oral traditions in small groups and organizations of people.

Andrew Carnegie who at one time was the richest person in America however, in what may like to appear that Andrew Carnegie wanted to make up for his sin in the way he acquired in his wealth by writing out his life plan  to spend the his last years giving all his wealth away. He also wanted to share this knowledge with the world.

Andrew Carnegie decided to do what he could to never let anyone experience the pain of poverty every again, he commissioned Napoleon Hill and introduced him to 500 of the most successful businessmen in the word to do a 25 year study of what these men have in common with each other which was released in 1925 as a correspondence course through mail through a series of booklets and in 1928 released it as the “Laws of Success” in one volume however, Henry Ford felt the “Laws of Success” revealed to many secrets and would create too much completion for him. So in 1931 after the death of Andrew Carnegie, they released as the classic “Think And Grow Rich”.

Which was marketed as a simplified version, however, in reality, it was nothing of a sort. “Think And Grow Rich” neglected to reveal the true secrets of success which was Andrew Carney dying wish.

In the movie the Matrix, Morpheus offers Neuro a red pill and a blue pill. If he takes the blue pill he will forget everything he just learned and will return to his normal life however, if he takes the red pill he will see the world as it really is.

I am offering you the red pill. To see the world as it really is which is the knowledge of the 1% which is a secret the is carefully guarded for many of the world's top elites. You can continue your struggle, or you can be freed and see how easy life really is.

So Let Us Continue

You may know how to work for money but unless you understand how to earn money you are doing your family a huge disservice by neglecting your family of your precious time and resources because you are working way harder and longer than you need to.

In order to work for money you just have to know how to do a certain skill, however, in order to earn money you have to understand the type of simple mathematics that many of you were never taught when you went to school.

You do not understand how your car works, how you can send messages through the air and send and receive messages on your cell phones and thus you do not need to understand the science of why this works.

So you do not need to understand this; in order to benefit from it.

Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you have read on the Website. Full medical clearance from a licensed physician should be obtained before beginning or modifying any diet, exercise, or lifestyle program, and your physician should be informed of all nutritional change

At this point, you are hopefully skipping breakfast or at least postponing the first meal of your day for as long as possible by filling up on liquids.

The next step is eating during the proper stage of your digestion. This is the secret to burning fat! Of course, it is also helpful if you make the best eating choices, however, you may need to exhibit willpower to do so at this stage. Take small steps but continue to move forward. If you make too many changes at once, you may become frustrated and give up. This is why we recommend a transition diet by making small changes over time that will give you drastic results.

What I found to be successful for me was to go to McDonald's every morning and buy a large cup of sweet tea. I then filled up four cups with ice and kept refilling them with the sweet tea over the course of the day. This would keep me satiated until 7:00 or 8:00 at night. At the time, I continued to eat the same junk food that I had already been eating.

I followed this routine for several weeks. During this time period, I was eating in the proper stage of my digestion but was not focusing specifically on my weight. (See more on this below.)

I had noticed that my clothes felt looser but wasn't weighing myself on a regular basis. On Mondays, I would visit my friend's timeshare and hang out at the pool all day. As I was walking around the area, I happened to walk by a large mirror and I had to take a second look at my reflection. I had lost so much weight from my mid-section I didn't recognize myself. I weighed myself when I returned home and discovered I had lost 21 lbs within 2 months without "dieting".

According to an article published on Mayclinic.org, in general, to lose 1 1/2 pounds (0.7 kilograms) a week, you need to reduce your daily calories by 500 to 750 calories. however, you can speed up this process by eating in the proper stage of your digestion. This same article also shows that you need to burn 3,500 more calories than you take in to lose 1 lb.

So how was I able to average 2 lbs. a day? Because I understood how and when to eat to maximize my fat burning and when we are finished, I believe you can also see successful weight loss. The following are strategies for your consideration.

For 5 to 6 hours after you eat, if you work out or engage in strenuous activity, you are more likely to burn off the calories from the food you just ate instead of fat that your body is storing. Hold off until later to exercise.

Six to eight hours after you eat, when you exercise, the food you ate earlier has been digested and you start to burn Glycogen which is sugar.

Finally, 8 to 12 hours after you eat, you are in the proper stage of your digestion to start effectively burning fat. So during this third stage of your digestion, you should engage in physical activity in order to burn the most fat. Even when you're sleeping, your burning fat. when you go to sleep about 8 hours after you eat you are then in the proper stage of your digestion to start burning fat.

This is why many people go for a morning run or go to the gym early in the morning. If you are experiencing a slight hunger, moderate physical activity like a set of push-ups can be an appetite suppressant.

In a video entitled "What Really Happens When We Fast" found on Dr. Eric Berggs Youtube channel, he describes additional benefits of fasting.

As I reviewed above, there are 3 stages to our digestion, however, the more hours we push off our eating in the day, the increased benefits you can experience. At this point, it may be just enough to skip breakfast, as you continue building upon your willpower you may be able to postpone your eating until when most people eat dinner however, over time the more hours you will be able to postpone your eating.

During fasting, you should be postponing your eating no more than 12, 18, or at most 24 hours. You should periodically consider extended fasting periods of at least 24 hours, 48 hours, or 72 hours. After 24 hours, you will experience a spike in growth hormones which assists in fat burning, anti-aging, healing joints, and producing new proteins. Your body starts going into autophagy where it starts to repair itself and reverse poor health issues you may be experiencing. At the 24 hour mark, your body is depleted of glycogen and begins to use ketones as an alternative fuel.

If you have ever done an extended fast, the first 24 hours is the hardest because these ketones suppress your appetite, and diminishes any junk food cravings you may have. Additional benefits include reduced inflammation and your digestion begins to heal, and your heart and brain function improve by producing new brain cells. You will experience the most benefits after 48 and 72 hours of prolonged fasting which you should only do periodically.

To get started, you should delay eating until after the 3rd stage of your digestion so that you can experience the maximum fat-burning benefits because fat is our most efficient energy source.

As with any change in your dietary habits and suggestions given in this post, it is recommended that you speak with a physician for guidance.
