3 Secrets Your Diet Book Won’t Tell You

Are you wondering why you’re not losing weight? If you’re like
me, you’ve tried every fad diet imaginable, and nothing seems to
work – at least not long-term. I’ve personally tried Weight
Watchers (which worked great until my schedule changed and I was
no longer able to attend meetings), Atkins (not easy to follow
for someone who travels a lot and loves to dine out), and crazy
fad diets like the cabbage soup diet, the grapefruit diet, juice
fasts, and countless others. I was hungry all the time, and I
wasn’t able to sustain any substantial weight loss because there
are three secrets that NONE of those diets told me.

First, diets don’t work, PERIOD. Any plan that’s highly
restrictive, structured or specialized is unrealistic for
long-term maintenance. Plus, any diet that requires you to
totally eliminate foods from your diet is a recipe for disaster.
Personally, I don’t care for chocolate. However, when someone
tells me I can’t or shouldn’t have chocolate, it’s amazing how I
suddenly crave it! When someone takes away a choice, the average
person wants that choice back – even if it didn’t mean much when
the option was available in the first place. Additionally, most
diets don’t work for everyone, and you won’t know if a diet
works unless you try it. Trying many diets without seeing
results can lead to “dieter’s frustration” which, in many cases,
just packs on more pounds.

The second point that most diets fail to mention is that you
must eat frequently to regulate your metabolism and burn fat.
Extreme low-calorie and tiny “portion-control” diets put your
body into starvation mode, which means your body clings to food
because it doesn’t know when its next meal is coming. This
explains how you can actually eat less food and consume less
calories, and still not lose any weight. If your diet makes you
feel hungry all the time, that’s definitely not a good sign. The
best nutrition plans require that you eat five or six small
meals per day, no more than four hours apart.

Finally, diets are lying to you when they say you must be
“patient” and expect to lose only one to two pounds per week.
For someone like me, who had fifty pounds to lose, this
information was devastating. If you have a lot of weight to lose
(50 pounds or more), it is not unhealthy to drop three to five
pounds per week, particularly in the beginning. In my
experience, the greatest motivator is early results. When you
can see the fruit of your efforts, you are much more likely to
press onward when the going gets tough. Early results can help
you maintain focus and keep your determination alive. An
excellent all-natural supplement such as NiteTrim
(www.NiteTrimDirect.com) can jump-start your results from other
weight-loss efforts. Supplements such as NiteTrim can also help
you break through the dreaded “plateaus.”

Once I discovered these three secrets, I realized that the best
way to get in shape and maintain a healthy body is through
proper nutrition, regular exercise and appropriate
supplementation. By far the best program I’ve found is a
combination of Bill Phillips’ Body for LIFE

easy to follow. Additionally, the Body for LIFE book provides
