2. • When people want to lose weight, they want to do it quick,
fast and in a hurry.
• Quick does not always equal better. In fact, when it comes
to permanent weight loss, slow and steady always wins out
in the end. Here are two of the main reasons faddy-type
diets don’t work:
1) They don’t deliver long-term results. Most fad diets require
you to drastically reduce your caloric intake. This causes your
metabolism to respond by slowing down. Once you revert
back to your regular eating habits, you’ll gain the weight back
just as fast as you lost it.
2) They mangle your health. Fad diet plans deprive you of some
of the key nutrients you need for good health. This can result
in malnutrition, zapped energy, damaged organs, hair loss, and
loss of lean muscle tissue. Sounds like a fun way to drop a few,
huh.
3. 4 Simple Rules of Eating to Lose
Weight
• Losing weight is certainly not the easiest thing to do, but if you remember
these four simple rules, you’ll never have to hop on the fad diet
bandwagon. You can lose weight gradually (remember slow and steady)
and keep it off for good:
1) Stay away from processed foods. These foods are full of high fructose corn
syrup, salt and chemical additives that can cause weight gain, diabetes,
heart disease, hypertension and cancer. Yep. This includes those frozen diet
meals that some weight loss programs encourage you to buy.
2) Leave the sugar alone. Sugar is riddled with calories. If you use it to sweeten
foods and beverages everyday, you can easily rack up too many calories and
hinder your weight loss efforts.
3) Eat enough food. If you’re hungry all the time, you are probably not eating
enough food to fuel your body. If you don’t eat enough, your body will hold
on to stored fat instead of burning it off. This is not what you want to
happen when you’re trying to lose weight.
4) Stay hydrated. Water is important when you’re trying to slim down because
it helps to metabolize fat and eliminate toxins and stored fat in the body. So
drink up!
4. Sample Recipes to Help You Eat Great
and Lose Weight
• Healthy French Toast:
1) 2 slices of Sprouted Grain, Spelt or Rice bread
2) 1 tablespoon of real butter
3) 2 whole organic eggs
4) maple syrup
5) cinnamon
• Directions: Mix the eggs in a bowl. Dip the bread in the egg mixture until it is completely coated on both sides.
Heat a pan on low to medium heat and add the butter. Once the butter is melted, add the egg coated bread and
cook each side for 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle the toast with cinnamon and serve it with 2 teaspoons of maple syrup.
• Baked Chicken a la Isabel (one of my creations)
1) 1 whole baking chicken
2) extra virgin coconut oil
3) your favorite Italian spices (I use thyme, parsley, oregano, garlic powder, sea salt and pepper)
• Directions: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place 2 tablespoons of coconut oil in a small pan and melt it over low
heat. Mix 1 to 2 teaspoons of each of your spices in a small bowl and pour in the melted coconut oil. Mix all the
ingredients together. Let the spice and coconut oil mixture cool.
• Rub the spice and oil mixture under the skin of the chicken with your hands. Once the chicken is completely
coated, place it breast side down in a glass baking pan and pop it in the oven. Let the chicken cook for 1 to 2 hours
until it’s done.
• There’s nothing boring or tasteless about the above recipes. If you’re creative and are willing to experiment with
new recipes, you can chow down like this everyday and look fantastic doing it.
