Some of us eat to exercise, others exercise so they can eat. Whatever your motivation, if you run, bike, or perform some kind of endurance activity, you probably feel that you deserve to eat more. After all, you expend 300 …#34; 1000 or more calories per day. Yet, to your surprise and frustration, you find that you consume no more calories than your sedentary friends. And when you try to lose weight, it may be harder for you.

This troublesome paradox can be explained by metabolic rates. Everyone has a basal metabolic rate, determined by age, weight, gender and genetics. This determines the bare minimum of calories necessary to keep you alive. Anything extra burns more calories and requires more energy. The paradox is that as the body becomes more accustomed to activity, it uses calories more efficiently.

As you train, you teach your body to get more from every calorie, lowering your metabolic rate and energy needs. Even worse, if you decrease your caloric intake, your body gets the message to use calories even more sparingly, making weight loss more difficult.

The solution is to avoid crash diets and maintain a consistent, regular diet.

Many people seem to think that to lose weight fast, you must starve yourself or buy the newest diet pill; it’s sooo much more complex than that! If you have tried to get slim quick with these automated ‘do nothing’ methods, you probably will admit to their inefficient results.

The truth of the matter? you need to eat! Even to lose weight quickly, you still need to consume a lot of food on a daily basis, however it’s what you consume that will determine the difference between losing your belly or other fat, or just adding to it later once you give up again!

I’ll tell you this: Low fat and low calorie diets don’t work. Why? This method actually slows down your bodies fat burning engine, and once you lose that first bit of weight, all efforts will come to what ’s known as the ‘dieting plateau’. Low carb diets are also popular now, however these often come with very strict and hard to follow routines that the average person simply will not follow.

Weight loss programs usually take the ’slow and steady’ approach, and you usually have to buy into meal plans, dietary supplements and again follow a routine that probably clashes with your day to day living to the point where you just give up! Isn’t there anything out there that offers an accelerated fat burning diet without side-effects or crazy routines? Ehemm, actually…. there is.

Perhaps you’ve heard of this product that is making its way around the internet right now, and is eating up (no pun) all the competition WITHOUT the need to fill your head with insane promises or false claims. In fact, this plan boasts a very high success rate, and this is the reason for its continued growth among those that are just dying (again, no pun) to lose weight fast.

Very appropriately titled ‘FatLoss4Idiots’, this fat filer program takes you on a step by step of how our society eats, consumes the worst things our bodies can handle, and what the necessary course of action is to lose 9 lbs every 11 days. Yes you read that right, the average person that follows this plan actually loses more than 1.3 lbs day, but most importantly-IT’S SAFE!

Not many accelerated fat burning diets offer these results without having to include its side-effects (don’t you love those new commercials where the side-effects are rambled on for 10+ seconds and seem to outweigh the desired results from the pill/product?) because there are NO side-effects to this, and your weight WILL indeed stay off this time.

Do you already eat 3 times a day or more? Good you MUST eat, now let’s focus on what you should/shouldn’t be doing with those meals, and what to do before and after those meals to make sure you stay the course and achieve that slamming body you’ve been dying to have! Even Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers and the Atkins diet have nothing on the Fat Loss 4 Idiots plan. Why? Due to it’s shear ‘end results’ that thousands can attest to (and that number is growing, while they are all shrinking!).

Stay the course, never give up, and don’t wait another second to get your health and body to where it should be! Your future and family depend on it.

One of the most frustrating aspects of being what mainstream society calls overweight (I like to call it OVERFAT) is the your body becomes more inclined to convert the carbohydrate calories that you eat, into fat; and then stores that fat in your fat cells. Thus, the fatter we become the easier it is to gain even more weight; and harder to lose it. To understand this, we must first understand the role of the hormone, insulin in the body.

Insulin is a hormone secreted by the pancreas. It helps the body utilize blood glucose (blood sugar). Think of insulin as a key. Every cell has a ‘lock’ (receptor) on it that opens a door that allows glucose to pass from the bloodstream into the cell. Once the glucose has entered the cell, it is used for energy. Glucose can be stored for future use by the liver or muscles in the form of glycogen.

The muscles and liver are the main storehouses of glycogen. Talk about efficiency of design. The very mechanicals that motivate us are also storage units! The power source is located right where the muscle needs it. Low-latency power on-demand! Which is great, but the most important thing to remember here is that once the muscle storage units and liver are full of glycogen; the remaining glucose in the bloodstream that is not being used by the brain or other vital organs usually gets stored as fat.

As a person gains body fat, the cells of their body become less sensitive to insulin. Insulin resistance occurs when the normal amount of insulin secreted by the pancreas is unable to ‘unlock’ the doorway of the cells. As a result, the pancreas must secrete higher and higher levels of insulin in order to overcome this widespread insulin resistance as it tries to maintain normal blood glucose levels. High levels of insulin signal the liver to convert carbohydrates into fat, following a meal or snack containing carbohydrates. In turn, these fats are shipped to your fat cells, contributing to weight gain and increased body fat.

What can cause the body to become insulin resistant? Genetics can obviously play a role, but I believe it has a LOT to do with the typical American’s poor diet consisting of mainly mid-to-high glycemic carbs, irregularly spaced feedings and lack of regular exercise that are mainly to blame. So it really becomes a Catch-22 situation for a mostly sedentary overweight person. Popular low-fat diets alone don’t get results because your body is conditioned to convert carbohydrates into fat, due to high levels of circulating insulin. The other negative effect increased fat storage and no exercise is the increasingly lower BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) that occurs because of this lifestyle. And that’s a death sentence for the typically weak and half-stepping fat-loss efforts; A.K.A. “diet” that most sedentary types try.

But the really sad thing is that these folks won’t exercise or exercise correctly even it they do. You hear them talking like diet is the only part of the equation, but that type of thinking doesn’t apply here. Remember it was not just the diet, but also the lack of exercise that got them into this state.
