What Do You Get When You Do a Diet Backwards?

The summer is fast approaching – and with it the shorts, short sleeves, and swim suits! This time of year is a difficult one when it comes to looking good and feeling comfortable in our clothes.

Weight loss is a hot topic, it seems like everyone wants or needs to lose a few extra pounds. Both young and old, male and female, everyone seems to want to drop a pant size, be a little more tone, and look a little better. Experts are always talking up the next exercise program, the next diet. With the weather changing many people begin to feel the need to lose weight and to look good, but frustration mounts and depression sets in as all of the effort at losing weight is met with too little results or no results at all. The reality for many people is that it is hard to lose weight ALL of the time.

Unfortunately, the system is broken. There are so many programs that promote losing weight. It seems so easy! Just exercise more and eat less and you can lose that weight. The flaw is that, for many people, it does not work.

With all the thousands of people dieting right now, only 2% are getting any results. That means that 98% of people dieting are being met with frustration, failure and more weight gain. Are you one of them?

Many people are “professional” dieters having tried and failed every diet out there. They reluctantly start the next program with the little voice inside them saying, “This is the next diet that I start that I will quit in a few weeks.” They have grown accustomed to failing. Indeed this leads them to feeling like they have low willpower.

If you have dieted and not lost weight and exercised and not lost weight you are looking at a hormone problem. There are hormones that store fat and hormones that burn fat. Eating the right foods and exercising appropriately will trigger fat burning; eating the wrong things and doing the wrong exercise will make you fat. Losing weight is not about counting calories or grams of fat. It is about understanding where the problem really is.

Do yourself a favor and do your diet backwards: Instead of starving yourself – eat all the right things to trigger fat burning. Instead of exercising harder – exercise smarter and trigger more fat burning.
