Wanna Lose Weight For Good?
Is there a point to working hard, to try to lose weight, if you don’t lose it for good?
Like most people, I am sure you have had reasons to want to lose weight. Perhaps you have tried many times. If so, by now, you will have come to the realization that diets don’t work. That’s a good thing, because you are absolutely right. Diets don’t work. You must promise yourself never again try to use a diet to solve your weight problems.
No human being can lose weight for good on a diet and here is why.
Your own body will not let you. It’s programmed to recognize a famine, not a diet. As far as your body is concerned, there is no difference between a diet and a famine.
Unlike a diet, your body has been programmed to handle a famine. It slows down your metabolism and prepares to store body fat. As soon as the famine is over, your body goes to work to repair the damage and to re-gain every bit of weight that was lost during the famine. Your body will not rest till it has restored not just the weight you lost, but an extra layer of body fat to protect you against the next famine.
So is there a genuine way to get a permanent weight loss? The answer is yes. But you will never find it with a diet. To lose weight longer than fleetingly, you need to first learn the cause of your weight problems. First you need to understand why you must never diet again. You need to learn what happened forty years ago, to trigger the weight problems and obesity epidemic we endure today. Make no mistake, even if there a few ‘experts’ who know how the body works, it’s not in their interest to tell you.
You will also need to learn about carbohydrate addiction. It is not the benign, sweet tooth mindset, that ‘diet experts’ would like you to believe and no – it will not be cured with a low carbs diet. You should bear in mind that the people who persuade you to diet, are not in business to cure either your carbohydrate addiction or your weight problems. They are certainly not in business to help you lose weight for good. Yes, they want you to lose weight, but they don’t expect the weight to stay away for long.
Their expectations are that you’ll be back for a new diet in a year or two, even sooner. Why? Because they know diets don’t work and the more you diet the fatter you get. So do exactly what they don’t expect you to do: Stop dieting. Give your body a chance to heal all that damage wrought by your diets. Learn how to help your metabolism get over the damage your diets have caused. Help it get back to the job it was programmed to do: To control and Balance your weight. This was never meant to be YOUR job. You can trust that your body, when it works, will perform a far better job than you could ever hope to do.
Please believe this: You have not failed your diets. Nobody could have done any better. If there’s a fault it is not with you, it’s with every diet you have ever used. All diets are an insult to your own body and a confrontation with nature. An argument with nature is an argument you will never win.
Don’t believe in promises. Don’t believe in miracle diets or good news stories. The self-nominated experts, who are so glib and clever with ‘diet talk’ are the same people who can’t tell you what will happen to the food you eat, after it has passed your lips. Begin to trust your body, make friends with it and learn to understand it. Get it back to work just as nature always intended. I can promise you, you’ll never regret it. This is not rocket science but it’s a manual that can teach you how to cure your carbohydrate addiction and lose weight for good. It will improve your life and make it a lot longer.
