Ways to Become Slim - 3 Diets To Avoid, 1 To Embrace!

Of all the ways to become slim available to you, the sad reality is that most of them are utter disappointments.  I will share some of these with you, as well as the way to become slim I personally used to lose 65 pounds in under 4 months... without ever going hungry or stepping foot inside a gym!

Here are some popular, trendy, and gimmicky ways to become slim that would probably actually work... if anyone could manage to stick with them long enough to get real, lasting results!

Low-carb (Atkins). When I tried this diet, I lasted just under 3 weeks and lost about 6 pounds. Not bad, but I felt absolutely horrible! I had foul-smelling urine (sorry to be somewhat graphic) and my breath smelled like sewage. To top it all off, I was experiencing head problems like confusion, apathy, and headaches. I was craving carbohydrates like crazy and had to stop this diet for my own personal sanity!
Low-calorie. One slice of whole-grain toast and half a cup of berries for breakfast. 2 ounces of chicken breast, a quarter cup of cottage cheese, and a celery stick for lunch. What the heck is going on here? Calorie restriction is tough. It's rigid. And it's almost impossible to stick to long-term. I have lost a few pounds (I believe it was 10 pounds in 2 months) on a low calorie plan, but it just wasn't sustainable. And because calorie restriction slows down the metabolism like crazy, when I did actually start to "eat like a man" again, the weight came back in spades!
Low-fat. This is one of the greatest dietary MYTHS of our time. Consuming fat does NOT make you fat! In fact, when you cut fat out of your diet, you're actually training your body to use carbohydrates (a very poor quality fuel) to carry on its everyday functioning. In order to condition your body to use fat (the highest quality, longest-burning fuel) for energy, you must eat MORE fat, not less. But you must eat the right kinds of fat. Low-fat diets are a joke and can actually make you gain weight!

The first two of these ways to become slim work in theory (and even in practice), but are just way too difficult and torturous to maintain. The third of these simply doesn't work at all.


Enter: Calorie Shifting.


This dietary approach gets your metabolism burning white hot, melting body fat like a blowtorch! Average weight loss? 9 pounds every 11 days!

The real beauty of calorie shifting is its user-friendliness. You'll never feel hungry or deprived in any way. You eat delicious foods, and plenty of them! After each 11 day period, you actually take a 3 day break and eat whatever you want, whenever you want! Then you jump back into another 11 day stretch.

You'll continue this pattern until you've lost as much weight as you need to lose. And if, at any point after stopping your diet, the weight starts to come back on, simply do a new 11 days and lose another 9 pounds!

This is not only one of the fastest ways to become slim, it's easily the most fun and enjoyable. I have nothing but confidence in your ability to succeed with this. You're going to do great!
