There are many
ways to lose a lot of weight in a short amount of time.However, most of them require
you to be hungry and unsatisfied. If you don’t have iron willpower, then hunger
will cause you to give up on these plans quickly.
The 3-step plan
outlined here will:
Kill your
appetite.
Make you lose
weight fast, without being hungry.
Improve your
health at the same time.
Step 1 – Eliminate Sugars and Starches
The most
important part is to remove sugars and starches (carbs) from your diet. These
are the foods that stimulate secretion of insulin the most. If you didn’t know
already, insulin is the main fat storage hormone in the body. When insulin goes
down, fat has an easier time getting out of the fat stores and the body starts
burning fats instead of carbs. Another benefit of lowering insulin is that your
kidneys shed excess sodium and water out of your body, which reduces bloat and
unnecessary water weight.It is not uncommon to lose up to 10 pounds (sometimes
more) in the first week of eating this way, both body fat and water weight.
Step 2 – Eat Protein, Fat and Vegetables
Each one of your
meals should include a protein source, a fat source and low-carb vegetables.
Constructing your meals in this way will automatically bring your carb intake
into the recommended range of 20-50 grams per day.
Protein
Sources:
Meat – Beef, chicken,
pork, lamb, bacon, etc.
Fish and Seafood – Salmon, trout, shrimps, lobsters,
etc.
Eggs – Omega-3
enriched or pastured eggs are best.
Low-Carb
Vegetables:
Vegetables
Broccoli
Cauliflower
Spinach
Kale
Brussels Sprouts
Cabbage
Swiss Chard
Lettuce
Cucumber
Celery
Step 3 (Optional) – Exercise 3-4 Times per
Week
You don’t need
to exercise to lose weight on this plan, but it is recommended. The best option
is to go to the gym 3-4 times a week. Do a warm up, lift weights, then stretch.
If you’re new to the gym, ask a trainer for some advice. By lifting weights,
you will burn a few calories and prevent your metabolism from slowing down,
which is a common side effect of losing weight Studies on low-carb diets show
that you can even gain a bit of muscle while losing significant amounts of body
fat
