Everytime I hear these health magazines or health hustlers like Dr Oz on TV say this, I laugh to myself
-
Weight loss is simply understanding how heavy foods or meals are. If you just consistently keep eating lighter meals for a sustained period of time, then weight loss would happen instantly
- How "healthy" a food is has nothing to do with it's ability to help you lose weight
- About 5 years ago, I lost 30 pounds eating fast food and junk food. And ate like one grapefruit
- For instance I would go to the candy store and eat Snickers, potato chips, cheese nips, honey bun, ice cream, etc and play basketball. And that would be the only thing I ate that day. But I would lose weight dramatically
- Junk food, although "unhealthy", are light as hell
- Conversely, I would eat a healthy full sized home cooked meal, and my weight would stay the same. No matter how much I exercise
The key is when you lose that weight, THEN you can focus on eating healthy
