Nutritional Weight Loss

TOTAL MEAL

3 chicken strips
4 mushrooms
8 spears asparagus
2 Tbsp (about) olive oil
Peppers, Pepper
Seasoning to Taste

Total Calories: 230

The more oil, the more calories. I didn’t eat most of the oil (that which didn’t cover the chicken and mushrooms was thrown away).

It’s not the healthiest meal ever (fried) but the calories and carbs are really low, and I’ll be full all night!

Always, I drink at least 16 oz of water as well.

Sometimes I’ll follow this up with a salad but I was just too full this evening
Happy healthy eating!

The reason you cannot lose weight by starving yourself (using a low calorie diet) is because your metabolism will detect any major drop in calories and it will then ADJUST ITSELF by burning fewer calories each day.

For example:
If you begin eating 2,500 calories per day then your metabolism will adjust itself so that your body begins burning 2,500 calories per day.

If you try to starve yourself by suddenly eating 1,000 calories per day then your metabolism will again ADJUST ITSELF so that your body begins to burn only 1,000 calories per day. That’s why you have failed in your past dieting attempts, that’s why you always seem to fail when you try and starve yourself.

Now you know the reason why you can eat 1,000 calories per day and not lose any weight while your friends can eat 2,500 calories per day and not gain any weight.

Also, virtually every person in today’s society is buying mostly “low fat” or “non fat” food at the grocery store, everybody is conscious of the “fat grams” inside the food they buy. However, people are getting fatter than ever by doing this and people are not losing weight by switching to the “low fat lifestyle”.

Those ridiculous “low carb” diets have certainly become popular in recent years, but of course those are just thinly disguised starvation diets. If you don’t think so then check out these facts below about Atkins….

The Atkins Diet limits your carb intake to ONLY 20 grams of “net carbs” per day during the first phase of the diet…….which means that you cannot even eat a single large apple during the first phase of the Atkins Diet (since even a large apple has more than 20 grams of net carbs).

…And if you want to continue through all of the phases of the Atkins Diet, then it will take another 4 MONTHS (16 weeks) before you’ll be allowed to eat just 400 carb calories per day — and any typical restaurant meal has more carbs than that. So this is really just another form of starving yourself (and making yourself MISERABLE), which is not the answer.

Dieting seems to be a national past time! At any given time you have millions of people who are trying to succeed at weight loss, yet the vast majority of these people ultimately fail, either quitting or succeeding, only to gain all the lost weight back again and usually some additional pounds. Low calorie diets, touted by the medical profession and dieticians can work for many people, but we all don’t respond to the same diet in the same way. Low carbohydrate diets tend to work much better for some than simply following a low calorie diet. If your body produces excess insulin, a low carbohydrate diet is going to have a much greater change of working than a low calorie program. Weight loss is not always easy, but it can be made easier once you understand how your body handles food. You can take our Weight Management test to determine if your body is more inclined to respond to a low calorie program and a low carbohydrate diet. Dieting will becomes easier and faster when you are on the program that bests matches your body chemistry. If you are under excessive amounts of stress, cortisol, a hormone from the adrenal glands, is produced in excess. Excess cortisol is one major cause for both weight gain and difficulty with weight loss. Cortisol can be controlled in the body by properly nourishing the adrenal glands so that they are not in a state of exhaustion. Cortisol excess causes weight gain primarily around the mid-section of the body and is easily recognized as one of the many causes of obesity.
