The Real Secret to Long Term Weight Loss

by Marc David

In one of the world's largest diet studies, it appears that diets actually damage your health. The results and the problems diets can cause should give you reason to keep reading.

According to Miller Jones, a professor of nutrition and food science at the College of St. Catherine in St. Paul, Minnesota...

4th graders are aware of the word diet, especially the girls.

Recently a massive worldwide study concluded that diets don't work long term for the majority of people on them and it might even put your life at risk.

This type of yo-yo behavior is linked to many health problems. Because of the strain on the body of repeated weight loss and weight gain, the researchers found that the dieters would have been better off not dieting at all.

Research has shown the repeated rapid weight gain and loss associated with dieting can double the risk of death from heart disease, including heart attacks, and the risk of premature death in general.

For starters...

When you think 'diet' you are actively engaging in short term thinking. When you start to think of it as something you go on and then off again, that's the wrong direction.

Some of the BEST resources on nutrition are not diets. They are eating plans. They are the basics of eating correctly for the rest of your life. Eating for everyday living is something you can be taught. There's nothing short term about them.

"The benefits of dieting are simply too small and the potential harms of dieting are too large for it to be recommended as a safe and effective treatment for obesity." -Dr Traci Mann

A quick test is to simply look at any given plan and immediately ask yourself...

Can I eat this way for the rest of my life and not fall prey to hunger cravings or temptations?

Frankly...

If you are overweight, then thinking in the short term is exactly why you could be doomed to fail! As you bounce from one plan to the next, you become more and more frustrated.

FACT: Many diets that use a severe calorie restriction just makes it harder to lose the weight the next time.

FACT: Some studies show that repeated weight loss and regain actually increase the changes you'll gain even more weight the next time.

FACT: It shouldn't come as a shock that people who exercise report the most long term weight loss.

Now with all this in mind...

No matter what eating plan you choose or what your goals, just drop the word 'diet' from your vocabulary and pick a plan you can stick with for life. That encourages slow weight loss or weight gain. That doesn't "demonize" foods but helps you pick and choose from healthy alternatives and explains the reasons why.

If you are always changing your eating habits for special events or every 8 weeks, you might be dieting. Before you start your next diet, that's the time to step back and ask yourself if you know all you can about proper, healthy nutrition. Learning how to eat correctly is something you can stick with for life and avoid the common frustrations.

NoBull Bodybuilding is an amazing new guide that finally tells you what to look for when beginning your fitness journey. It's a resource you can use to cut thru the hype and quickly start working on your goals.

Sure, there are tons of diets and training programs, but they simply don't apply to "newbies." They're either too scientific or the programs are designed for advanced trainees.

The advanced game is different in almost every aspect - workout frequency, training volume, recovery time and even supplementation. Until you learn proper strategy for a "beginner's physiology" and learn what mistakes to avoid, you could go the gym every day for the next 20 years and still not get the results that you want.

You're not likely to "figure out" these secrets on your own either - even the most advanced pros all had a "mentor" REVEAL these secrets to them somewhere along the path.

What has really been missing is a simple but complete system that covers all aspects of the game - nutrition, traing and supplementation - created by an experienced veteran, that ANYONE could use - even total beginners - to reach their maximum potential for muscle growth, fat loss or physical fitness in the shortest time possible.

Here is some of the critcal information every beginner must know before they start, which you will learn inside the beginners guide e-book:

  • The truth about how long it really takes to gain muscle mass and lose body fat (not the fairy tales you read about in the magazines and supplement ads)

  • How to avoid embarrassing yourself and looking like a "dork" the first time you work out in a gym: Instead of feeling intimidated or nervous, you'll be able to walk into the gym like you own the place (or... if you prefer to stay at home... you'll discover what equipment to buy and how to get started on a shoestring budget)

  • The facts about genetics and your ultimate potential for muscle mass or leanness: Discover the truth about genetic potential and whether you will ever have a chance to look like a bodybuilder or fitness model (don't worry... it's mostly good news... but there is a catch... and you do have to be realistic... If you start with unrealistic expectations, you're going to lose motivation and sabotage yourself)

  • What you can expect as a beginner if you're starting after the age of 40 (there are a few things you'll have to do differently than those youngsters - mess this up and you'll get hurt, overtrained or hormonally depleted)

  • Why steroids and performance enhancing drugs are totally unnecessary... IF you understand the facts about hormonally friendly training, nutrition and supplementation (these are safe and natural methods that work for permanent gains... if you take drugs you may look great now, but what about a few years from now?)
The Beginner's Guide e-book takes all the guesswork out of learning how to lose fat, gain muscle and sculpt your body into the exact shape and proportions you want. It also ends the need for searching for days through magazines, books and websites... which is like looking for a needle in a haystack ...
