Girlfriend, I hear ya because I've been there before. I can remember a time; I called myself trying to do Atkins - "trying" keyword. Yes, Atkins has worked for many people, but guess what, they gained all the weight
back.
I lasted about two weeks trying to eat just meat and butter - all the fats, lol. Well, it was more meat options than that, but very little starch. The only carbs you are allowed on the Atkins is the vegetable variety, and only up to 40 grams carbs at that. Shoot me now! Hungry just thinking about
it.
When I tried this diet, I was on my feet all day. Waitressing, going to college (walking all over campus), and part-timing in a grocery store as a cashier.
I was mentally foggy, low energy, grumpy, just down right tired. No energy what so ever to workout - I was even lifting the things back then.
So, as you can imagine, I felt like death, and all I could think about was all the food that I was gonna eat when the diet was over.
I'd like to die, but I quickly learned that this was not the diet for me.
Sure, maybe, if I didn't work or have a non-active job, just maybe I would have seen results -
short lived results that is, it wasn't realistic. The diet itself isn't sustainable for most folks. It takes a lot of willpower and willpower isn't infinite.
So, I found a better way.
It's only a matter of time before you binge
on what you banned. Throw in the towel, feel all the ways I listed above. Then when that funk is over, you try harder again.
If you can keep it up, you hit your goal weight. Then what happens after? Are you able to not have any starchy carbs, sugar, etc. for the rest of your life? Or do you even want to?
My guess is probably not at all.
The dieting mentality or diet roller coaster is a hard one to get off of, you may not see it at first, and even after reading this email, you may still continue to diet and ruin your health and increase your fat. Losing and gaining the same weight over and over causes us to have more fat and less muscle on our frames.
What if I told you it was a better way?
The better way is not to look for another diet.
The better way is to look at body change with a healthier mindset. A healthier approach, one that that doesn't villainize or ban any food
groups. Or an approach that relies solely on the scale as progress.
Losing weight fast at the expense of your sanity is not good for you physically or mentally.
I have the solution for you. What I am offering is not a diet that bans things or makes you feel guilty for eating not so clean foods. Or the
labeling of good or bad foods.
You can actually lose fat and change your body composition without eliminating carbs. Why remove things that you like?
Let me tell you a little secret, not so much a secret really.
All those diets I named above, plus many more require a calorie deficit (eat less food than you burn). There is nothing magically about cutting carbs (the reason why you lose weight is that you created a caloric deficit through whatever food you banned or eliminated).
You can do the
exact same thing - create a deficit w/o eliminating foods, while still enjoying foods that you like, and that will help you adhere to the fat loss plan. The biggest thing is that you don't have to white-knuckle your way through and dream of all the foods that you have banned.
