Some believe that once you reach the age of 40, everything heads downhill. Then comes the ?middle age weight gain?. The concept of not eating for several days to achieve fast weight loss has diminished, unheard of, gone out the window. Surely you have noticed that young kids and teenagers seem to have developed the ?middle age weight gain? as well, haven't you?
Here are the secrets to fast weight loss and belly be gone. Using hypnosis has been very instrumental in helping people lose unwanted weight and reduce belly with proper suggestions and programming of the subconscious mind. While in hypnosis suggestions can be given to make a person leave food on their plate, feel satisfied with less eating, and disinterested in food.
The second secret to shrinking the mid section experience fast weight loss, drink lots of water all day long. Drinking 12 OZ of water 15 minutes before each meal will help reduce the amount of food you are consuming. Most often people eat ? of what they normally would.
Because of the endless amounts of chemicals that are put into our food supply people are struggling with weight gain and belly fat. Another way you can achieve fast weight loss and a smaller waistline is to stop eating high fructose corn syrup (HFCS). You may think that's easier said than done because HFCS is in everything but there are plenty of foods that don't have it. HFCS is responsible for most excess weight gain.
In 1970 HFCS was added to our food supply. Every generation of Americans are heavier without any relief in sight since that time. Can you believe that just stopping the consumption of HFCS will cause you to experience fast weight loss and reduce your belly size?
Here are some ways that HFCS affects your body. It gives you an increase appetite along with making you addicted to whatever you're eating. Because HFCS is not processed the same way as regular sugar, it negatively affects your metabolism and insulin levels. Remove HFCS from your diet and you can have fast weight loss.
Another secret to shrinking your belly size, eliminate soft drinks. Regular soft drinks have 13 teaspoons of sugar. The diet version is not any better; it is full of artificial sweeteners that make your belly much bigger. If you want to have fast weight loss and to sit back and watch your body and belly shrink in size, say goodbye to soft drinks.
Becoming more physically active is another key secret. It does not have to be strenuous exercise. Go for a jog or even a walk. Just start moving. Start with walking 20 minutes per day. Combining hypnosis with your walking adds discipline; will power and self-control, helping you attain fast weight loss.
Here's the final secret. Have you noticed the amount of people that walk 45 minutes or longer but still don't experience fast weight loss? It is because once their body gets accustomed to a routine, it adapts quickly. If you are not huffing and puffing, it has a limited affect on your body. To speed up your metabolism and burn belly fat, you need to burn that belly fat and turn that 20-minute walk into an interval workout. Your cardiovascular system will become stronger and you will lose your weight faster.
It's just simple mathematics, right?
After all, if you're eating 3,000 calories per day and you cut back to 1,000 calories per day, then those extra 2,000 calories have to be burned from your body, right?
It's as simple as 2 + 2 equals 4, right? Well, this is not exactly true.
First, let's talk about the average person who begins a diet. The scenario usually goes something like this...
One day you look in the mirror and you finally get fed up with the way your body looks (or the way that your clothes fit) - and on this day you get "angry" with yourself, and you begin cutting way back on calories in an attempt to starve yourself thinner.
So you officially begin your "starvation diet."
On the first day you skip breakfast altogether (after all, you're so filled with anger and motivation that it's easy to skip breakfast).
Then, a few hours later your motivation quickly gives way to severe hunger - since your body is not accustomed to being without calories for so long.
Finally, by lunchtime you're so hungry that you feel weak and miserable, but yet you tell yourself that you can make it through this tough hunger (after all, you don't want to look like a quitter to your friends and family who know that you're dieting).
So you have a small piece of fruit for lunch perhaps, bravely trying to stick to your plan of starving yourself thin.
Then, hours later when dinnertime arrives you're so hungry and weak that you have a big migraine headache - and you're beginning to realize that starving yourself might not be such a good idea after all.
However, you try to hold out for another day or two on this miserable diet - since nobody likes to feel like a quitter.
So you'll probably hold out for another day or two, making yourself miserable in the meantime.
There are even some brave dieters who may hold out for a week or so, possibly even 2 weeks for the bravest of dieters.
However, regardless of how long you hold out -- the result is still the same.
You see, even after 2 weeks of starving you won't have made any noticeable difference to your body when you look in the mirror.
Why?
Simple, because the weight lost during a starvation diet is largely water weight, not real weight loss. This water weight will be gained back immediately when you stop dieting and begin eating normally again.
Also, when you starve yourself your body begins burning fewer calories each day -- so even though you're eating fewer calories each day you must remember that your body is also burning fewer calories.
For example, let's say that you normally eat 2,500 calories per day (before you begin dieting). Then, you suddenly try to starve yourself by eating only 1,000 calories per day.
Guess what?
Even though you're eating 1,500 fewer calories per day your body will begin burning 1,500 fewer calories per day - so your weight will remain the same even though you're starving yourself.
When your body begins burning fewer calories it's called a weight loss "plateau." This is why virtually all starvation dieters cannot make the scale go down after about 2 weeks of dieting.
This is why even the most determined of "starvation dieters" always fail after just a couple of weeks.
The truth is that "noticeable" weight loss simply cannot be achieved by starvation, and it's pointless to even try that type of diet.
True weight loss can only be achieved by giving your body the right types of calories at the right times each day. Your body is like a big engine, and the truth is that it needs all 3 types of calories (protein, carbs, and fat) to some degree.
The best way to lose weight is to effectively manage these 3 types of calories, so that your body receives the proper amount of protein, the proper amount of carbs - and also the proper amount of fat each day.
