I’m not sure if you’ve heard of this “secret” diet, but it’s one that I was personally unfamiliar with. And yet, I was the one who had a ton of success in losing weight by following this diet. But I want to tell you why it worked for me—and why you can too.
Before I go on, allow me to clarify something: This is not a fad weight loss plan or any kind of diet that promises quick results. This is about being healthy and eating well for your own sake—and for your family’s sake too.
If you are reading this via email or phone, thank you for donating your time to read my thoughts on the subject matter (I appreciate it). I want you to know that what I have shared is not meant to be taken as medical advice; rather, it’s meant as an informative resource that may inspire you to set healthy goals and make positive changes in your life.
2. The Bad News
I’m not a doctor, but I’m going to share the bad news of how you can lose weight fast.
The most important piece of information anyone who wants to lose weight needs to know is this:
It’s easier than you think.
To do it in a healthy manner, you need to know two things:
1) You can do it in 30 days or less.
2) It doesn’t take too much time or effort. In fact, if you’re willing to put more time in your pursuit, you can do it even faster.
Fasting is a process that starts with an initial period of intense hunger and ends with the feeling that you are fat and have been for years. This is the first stage of the program where nobody will be cheering for you since nobody knows what happened before the finish line. It can be terribly uncomfortable, but hey — no one likes being fat and sickly anyway! You could go on for days without eating or drinking anything at all just like we did in our first year at school when we were hungry all day long! The amount of food required during this period varies from person to person; however, most people like eating 2-3 times per day as well as some water (don’t forget about that water!). This will help eliminate any ill effects associated with overeating during this phase. However, if there are any major health issues associated with fasting such as severe headaches, insomnia (you want your mind ready when your body goes into starvation mode!), heart palpitations, fainting etc., then try to eat a few hours before going into fasting mode so that your body has enough time to adjust its metabolism after stopping eating and drinking fluids for 24 hours! This will ensure that your digestive system gets used to getting nutrients directly from food rather than via water and snacks — which are necessary during the fasting phase but not optimal since they aren’t providing the high amounts of calories that one should get from food during this phase anyways! You may also find it beneficial to take a good nap before entering fasting mode since naps tend to improve sleep quality by 40% compared to not taking naps! Just don’t overdo it; otherwise, it can lead to constipation and bloated stomachs which may make partaking in fasting difficult later on! Also note: If someone else is doing something similar such as intermittent fasting — use their diet plan instead
3. But What If I Really Need to Lose Weight?
Losing weight isn’t easy. We all want to be healthier, lose weight, and look better. And we all want to accomplish things that we sometimes feel challenged by. But the reality is that losing weight is only one piece of a puzzle.
It’s easy to lose weight when you’re already at a healthy bodyweight as measured by your ideal body mass index (BMI). If you’re at a healthy BMI, losing even 20 pounds per year is easy; if you lose 30 pounds per year, it becomes challenging.
This challenge ranges from health issues like diabetes to psychological issues like anxiety and depression.
For example, let’s say you had a BMI of 27 while starting out on your diet in January. Your goal was to lose 10 pounds in 6 weeks. Let’s assume you were losing 4 pounds per day (we’ll ignore exercise) and that you had a normal metabolism (you were eating right and drinking plenty of water). You might be able to do this if you were eating less than 1200 calories per day — not too much more than what your body needs each day; but if you were eating 2000 calories more than what your body needs each day, then the challenge would be greater than before.
But let’s say instead of dropping 4 pounds per day in 6 weeks, it took 12 months — 12 months from the start of the diet until you finally reached your goal weight! If that seems like a long time for some people who are starting out on their diets or have been doing them for years, imagine trying to conquer this same challenge when it comes to losing 30 pounds in one month!
If it takes 12 months from start of diet until reaching your goal weight, then what does this mean? It means that if I have a goal weight of 30 lbs for me or my spouse and I have been doing diets for years — how far can I go? How can my goals change with time? How can my goals change based on my circumstances? To answer these questions: 1) It depends on how much time I want to spend on this diet 2) It depends on whether or not I am motivated enough 3) It depends on whether or not I am consistent 4) It depends on whether or not there will be any temptations 5) It depends on whether or not there will be support 6) It depends on whether or not there will be someone who will help me 7
