101 Free Tips For Simple Fat Loss

The following free advice is given willingly by expert Licensed Chiropractor and Wellness Professional Dr.Charles D.C.

"Losing fat shouldn’t be as hard as many people try to make it. People who are desperate to lose fat are often prone to take more risks (something that I try to help you avoid). The truth is that with some basic principles you can make some serious progress toward fat loss without any major effort. Often a client will come to me looking for some hints that will help them shed some weight quickly. I am always happy to tell them my “secret” tips that are always surprisingly effective. In fact, many people have found these tips to make an easy ten pound difference as they get started on a new program. You might thing that these suggestions are really hi-tech or mysterious, but in reality, they are basic principles that I’ve seen successful over and over again. Here they are.

1 Avoid “white” food. This includes white breads, pastas, many cereal products, and even cracker-type snacks. Think about some other white things too like flour, potato products, rice, and even processed milk and cheese products. Some white foods that are OK for you to eat are cauliflowers, fish, and chicken.
2 Ditch the sodas and other drinks that have calories, sugar, or even artificial sweeteners. I don’t want you to drink much coffee either. Creamer? No. It’s white, isn’t it? I want you to take in at least half the weight of your body in ounces of water. This means that if you weigh 250 pounds, you should be consuming 125 ounces of water every day. This will be essential for getting the fat loss process in gear.
3 I’ve already taken you off white products, now you need to do away with wheat products. I don’t care if the package says “whole wheat” on it or not: it has to go. Check the ingredients of everything you’re eating and if it has wheat in it, don’t eat it.

These three rules are pretty easy to follow, aren’t they? Sure, you’ll have to adjust your habits a little bit, but it really won’t be very hard once you get started. If you consistently adhere to these hints, you will be surprised at the progress you make in just a couple weeks."

On the Table: Surprising data on weight loss

Weight loss is incredibly hard to achieve.

Researchers have been working for decades to find solutions to obesity. Even so, we’re a long way from knowing which solutions work best.

In a paper published this month in the New England Journal of Medicine, researchers presented evidence that refutes many of the ideas long thought by health professionals to be best practices for helping people lose weight. The paper set off discussion and debate within my school, and I’m sure it happened elsewhere, too.

In the paper, authors examined long-held advice about weight control and concluded that some of it is not supported by science. They called these ideas myths:

• Small behavior changes can add up to substantial, long-term weight loss. Weight loss predictions are based on a long-used formula that doesn’t consider the fact that as you lose weight and get smaller, you need fewer calories to maintain your new, lighter self.

So small changes can’t be expected to produce gains as big as once promised.

• Losing large amounts of weight quickly is less effective than slow, gradual weight loss. The authors cited research that suggests there’s no significant difference in long-term weight loss using go-fast or go-slow approaches.

• Setting realistic goals for weight loss is important because people may become frustrated and give up if they aren’t successful. Again, the authors cited contrary evidence, including examples in which bigger goals brought bigger results.

They didn’t stop there. The authors cited more than a dozen commonly held notions about weight loss that are supported by varying levels of evidence, as well as nine more with enough evidence backing them to be considered fact.

What does this mean for all of us?

First, it’s important to know what you don’t know. Second, it’s smart to exercise a healthy dose of skepticism knowing that nutrition science will change over time.

When it comes to nutrition science, it can be difficult – even for people who spend their day jobs trying to understand the evidence – to agree on what it all means.

That makes it important to rely on sound advice drawn from the latest research and to tailor weight control recommendations to your unique circumstances.

And, keep working at it.
