'How can I lose weight?' Simple, eat less food than your body burns.
Hackers Diet
"There is no magic secret to losing weight and keeping it off, just as there is no hidden key to instant wealth.
Nonetheless, every year another crop of 'magic diet' and 'secrets of investing' books appear on already-creaking shelves.
The human capacity to ignore inconvenient facts and avoid unpleasantness is immense. Success in any endeavour requires coming
to terms with the true nature of the task at hand and, if the goal is worth the effort, getting on with it.
"Losing weight isn't pleasant, and it's far better to get it over with quickly, and never have to do it again."
About the Hacker's Diet
That's why having a coach to support you can make a difference, especially coaches who have used this method to have significant results.
The author of the Hacker's Diet did it, I'm doing it, you can too!
Also, while it isn't pleasent it can be fun and the rewards once you've achieved results can sure be pleasent!
"Stress is an unavoidable consequence of living in our fast-paced, high-tech culture, yet few of us are willing to sacrifice its stimulation and
excitement to recapture the placid and serene life of simpler times. Stress is a primary cause of overeating and weight gain.
You'll learn how to break the cycle of stress-induced eating and how to actually turn stress into an ally in achieving your ideal weight."
"There is one, simple, unavoidable fact of dieting. To lose weight you have to eat less food than your body needs.
Only by doing so can you cause your body to burn its reserves of fat and thereby shed excess weight.
If nutrition is about meeting your body's needs, losing weight involves deliberately shortchanging those needs--in a word, starving.
This isn't a pleasant or inherently healthy process, but it's better than carrying around all that extra weight.
You'll see how to reduce your food intake intelligently, so you don't end up with scurvy or something else unpleasant or embarrassing."
The Warm Hard Facts About Weightloss
Your body burns calories all the time, yes all the time. Taking advantage of this fact is how you'll loose weight
doing what your body already knows how to do, burn calories!
But what about exercise?
Hacker's Diet on exercise:
"Don't kid yourself into thinking that exercise, by itself, will make you lose weight.
Consider the following activities, and the number of calories an average person burns per hour in each.
Walking 300, Bicycling 300, Aerobics 400, Swimming 400, Tennis 500, Basketball 500, and Jogging 700 calories per hour.
"Compare those numbers, remembering that they're for a full hour spent nonstop in the exercise,
with the calories in the following food items:
Peanut butter sandwich 275, Pizza (3 slices) 500, and a Big Mac 560 (see also
Calories in Various Foods).
Clearly, even an hour a day of exercise doesn't account for much food.
And what's the likelihood you'll find the time to spend a full hour, every day,
month after month, year after year, doing those exercises?"
"So, don't exercise to try to burn off calories and lose weight.
Unless you're a professional athlete or obsessed with sports, you're not
likely to spend enough time exercising strenuously enough to make much of a difference.
Exercise will help you lose weight in more subtle ways. Regular exercise increases your rate
of metabolism: the number of calories you burn all the time. Plus, for many people, exercise actually reduces appetite.
But these are side effects: hardly reasons to start exercising.
The real reasons to exercise are that you'll live longer and feel better."
What Target Mass Do I Aim For?
First you'll need to have a conversation with your Doctor to make sure that the changes in your diet will be safe for you. In addition
you'll need to discuss what an appropriate target body mass should be. As a general rule the
Body Mass Index method is used to determine
standard body masses that are presumed to be healthy. It's a process to choose what your target weight is. The key is to reduce your
weight from higher levels into a more healthy range.
