Review & Description
It is not our fault that we are overweight. We are constantly being bombarded by toxins, additives, parasites, hormones, genetically modified foods, etc. that make our bodies sluggish and our metabolisms almost useless. Our livers are clogged with contaminants found in the air we breathe and the food we eat.
Two thirds of American adults in 2010 were either overweight with a body-mass index (BMI) of 25 or higher, or obese with a BMI of 30-plus. Since the trend showed a steady increase in the obesity rates, this year will be even worse. And that is not even by the standards by which our parents and grandparents were measured. In 1940, almost all of us would have been considered overweight.
Unfortunately when people get desperate they resort to extreme behavior like eating a few bites of salad instead of a real meal, or exercising compulsively for hours in the hopes of attaining the desired weight. Not only does this NOT work for most people, it endangers your health and ruins your metabolisms a.k.a. your body's ability to burn fat.
The idea is to find a system that is radical (strict) enough to help you lose weight relatively fast, but sane enough to maintain or improve your health and allow you to function at normal capacity. Also, it has to be flexible enough to adapt to your needs and to your eating preferences. If you are lactose intolerant, a diet that includes a lot of dairy will not work for you. The way of eating that I propose to you tries to take all this into account.
If you are overweight and have tried and failed to lose weight, read this book. For over 15 years I tried every single diet available and nothing helped. I read books, exercised, lifted weights, you name it. Nothing worked. And then it dawned on me! The answer is not to eat less and exercise more. Very few people actually succeed in losing weight and keeping it off.
You have to change your life and the changes have to be permanent. Not a DIET, not a weight-loss plan, but a change of lifestyle. Follow me through these pages and let me show you what challenges you are facing and how to conquer them. I’ll show you how to cook, delicious gourmet foods. I’ll prove to you that you can enjoy what you eat and still lose weight.
