Got any good diet tips?

You will lose more body fat eating protein & fat (don’t eat protein alone) than not eating AT ALL. To lose weight fast eat all you want but nothing but meat, eggs, healthy oils, mayo, butter and half an avocado a day (you’ll need added potassium). Keep the calories high and the fat percentage high, at least 65% of calories. Adding in green vegetables & some cheese will continue weight loss but at a slower pace.

The first week is just water weight but fat is lost thereafter if you keep your calories high enough. Otherwise your body will strip it’s own lean tissue for nutrition and although that may look great on a scale it will make it MUCH easier for you to accumulate fat in the future (since you don’t have all that pesky lean tissue burning up calories). Your body won’t release fat stores if you lower calories below what it needs. It will slow your metabolism to compensate and store every spare ounce as fat. If you continue lowering your calories, it will continue lowering that set point, til you can survive off nothing and store fat on anything. The body will only release it’s fat stores if it knows there is plenty of food.

Eating carbs while trying to lose body fat is terribly inefficient. When in glycolysis (burning glucose as fuel) you have to lower your calories (which slows your metabolism) and exercise heavily to deplete your glycogen stores before burning body fat.

The core of the Atkins program is converting your body from glycolysis (burning glucose as fuel) to ketosis (burning fat as fuel). You need to keep your fat levels at >65% of your calories, if you don’t your body will still remain in glycolysis by converting 58% of excess protein into glucose (via gluconeogenesis).

It takes minimum of 3 days to convert your body to ketosis, (but only one bite to convert back to glycolysis) you will probably feel sluggish the first week but most people feel better than ever thereafter.

Simple carbohydrates (sugar, flour, bread, cereal, pasta, potatoes, rice) triggers insulin which can store the calories you eat into fat. The more protein you eat the more the fat burning hormone glucagon is released. The more carbohydrate you eat the more the fat storage hormone insulin is released.

Simple carbs are addictive and can be disastrous to our health. The best way to break the addiction is NO carbs for 3 days. Make a huge batch of deviled eggs and eat one every time you want "something" have huge bacon, peppers, mushrooms & cheese omelets for breakfast. Pork chops for lunch. Get pork rinds and eat them with tuna salad. Steak for dinner. Make a huge sugar free cheese cake for dessert. Eat so much you won’t feel deprived of anything. By the fourth day, your addiction will be gone and you can start making healthy choices.

High insulin levels promote inflammation, weight gain, hunger and unbalance other hormones. Controlling your insulin level will balance out other hormones & allow human growth hormone (HGH) to be produced naturally so you will gain lean muscle even without exercise. Any exercise will greatly increase your muscle mass with high HGH levels.

Ground flax seed (2 Tbsp) 1/4 cup of water, cinnamon, artificial sweetener, mix in a raw egg – let sit 10 min to absorb liquid, put some cream cheese in the middle and nuke for 1.5 min. for hot cereal or 2 min. for more of a muffin type thing. Great low carb, high fiber treat. Suggested for daily fiber needs.

The first 2 weeks you can have several cups a day of (mostly) lettuce and celery, cucumbers, radishes, mushrooms, peppers and more variety of vegetables thereafter add 5 grams per day additional (20 grams day first 2 weeks, 25grams 3rd week, 30grams 4th week etc) every week til you gain weight, then you subtract 10 carbs. That would give you your personal carb level (everyone is different and it depends on how active you are.)

Start with meat & fats & salads for a couple of weeks and then you can slowly add in more green veg, wk4 fresh cheeses, wk5 nuts & seeds, wk6 berries, wk7 legumes, wk8 other fruits, wk9 starchy veg and lastly wk10 whole grains. You will learn how your body reacts to different foods. As long as you remain <9 carbs per hour, you will maintain insulin control, and shouldn’t gain weight.

Many people gain weight on high carb, then switch to low carb to lose weight & then are shocked when they return to high carb that they gain weight. Many people can return to moderate carb levels but very few can really eat all they want of sugar and maintain weight or health.

Dr.Atkins was a cardiologist, low carb was a health plan easier sold as a "diet" Read any of his books for easily understandable science. Normalizing blood pressure, blood sugar, insulin, cholesterol, triglyercerides and hormone levels are all bonus features of doing a low carb way of eating. Lutz "Life without Bread" & Taubes "Good calories, Bad calories" are excellent books that dispel all the nutrition myths.

drink lemonade

Breakfast bars can be loaded with sugar. Stick with the fruit. I see no proteins except the yogurt. Also, no vegetables. You need to have at least 1500 calories a day. I’m not sure what you do with your friends, but try to make it active most days of the week. Run/walk quickly, ride a bike, swim. Try for at least 30 minutes.

Ok, Answer these question:
1.How old are you?
2.Do you take vitamins?
3.Do you execersize?

I think that you should just wake up at about 5:00 in the morning and exersize,stretch and start jogging for about 20 min. For breakfats,i suggest you eat fruit yogurt,a piece of fruit and proably a healthy cereal bar.You should watch the cholesteral and the calories because that is some thing you should watch out for in the food you are eating.
Some possibly things you can use are proably:
1.Activia,Yoplait,Binkgo Biloabo and soem more viatamins that help you stay fit and healthy.
Go to Web Md and type in ‘losing weight’ they have everything about medical problems. Hope this helped!!

sounds like you are doing ok.you can also try eating salads like tuna or crountons salads
you dont sound lazy sooo…you should try doing cardio and other exercise you like for example …DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION!!!!!
is a great fitness game for ps2 and ps3 thats a fun way to lose weight
if you lose like 1-2 pounds in one week you are doing great losing weight takes time but if you get used to it then you will lose weight and not notice it
so dont get frustrated take your time if you are in a hurry you will most likely lose motivation.so take your time and you shall lose most weight in a couple of months.
dont worry of you have a burger and fries one time if you are hungry dont say ill keep it up tommorow just keep doing the diet as if it never happened
you will find it hard in the beginig when you start a diet but in the end you ll feel happy and slim.

1. eat small meals often
2. eat low GI food (helps keep blood sugar stable, therefore less cravings for sugary food)
3. eat calorie dense foods (fruit)
4. be careful of fat-free products (full of sugar, which is made into fat when eatin)
5. Eat lean protein with your meals (eggs, chicken, turkey)

If your tryin to lose weight do cardio and lift weights. The cardio will help you lose weight, I recommend running as soon as you get up b4 breakfast or high intensity (sprints, hills) look these up loads of information on the web. The weights will tone your muscles so when you lose body fat the muscles will look great.

Fat is the ultimate high energy food. You seem to be avoiding it. Lard, egg yolks, butter, coconut oil, caviar… these are the cornerstones of a successful low-carb diet. Fat gives you energy without causing weight gain, it helps you absorb vitamins and minerals, it reduces glycemic load, it boosts your immune system, and it’s pretty nearly impossible to be allergic to it.

You’ve tried carbs and they’re not working for you. Give meat and fat a try. "Good Calories, Bad Calories" will explain the science of why it works and the history of why people stopped doing it in the 20th century. "Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution" will tell you how, but if you want to try another plan, I’ve heard these are all good:

"Protein Power" by Michael R. and Mary Dan Eades (despite the name, it’s actually a high-fat diet)

"The False Fat Diet" by Dr. Elson Hass (explains how food sensitivites can cause weight gain)

"Nourishing Traditions" by Sally Fallon and Dr. Mary Enig (a cookbook with lots of information about the health benefits of a traditional diet)
