Realistic Approach to Weight Loss

The fastest way to drop weight is fasting and/or cutting out complex carbohydrates.

Why? Because you will lose water weight.

Some of the carbs you consume are stored in the form of glycogen.

For every one gram of carbohydrate stored in the body (as glycogen), there are approximately 2-3 grams of water retained.

1 Pound = 15.34 oz of Water

Net carbs= total carbohydrate intake (in grams) and deducting the total fiber intake (in grams).

Example: Total carbohydrates 65-75 grams – 35-45 grams of fiber per day = 20-40 grams net carb, these are the carbohydrates that raise your insulin levels which will then, in turn, make it impossible to lose fat. Insulin is the guard to the Fat cell. As long as Insulin is in the bloodstream fat will not be used for energy. The best way is to eat 1lb of non-starchy vegetables a day to get 20 to 49 grams of net carbs per day.

Understanding there are around 3500 calories in 1 pound of fat

To lose 10lbs of fat you will need to deplete your diet of 35,000 calories

If you cut about 500 calories a day from the diet, you’d lose about 1 pound of fat a week.

10 weeks = 10lbs of fat

Lose Weight Fast

How can I lose 10lbs in a month for a special event compared to how do I lose 10lbs for better health?

If you need to drop the weight fast because you have a special event coming up then fasting (Intermittent and extended) and low carbs, high good fat, moderate protein is the best go-to plan.

If you want better health, and less pain and inflammation then fasting (Intermittent and extended) and low carbs, high good fat, moderate protein, is the best go-to plan.

Water weight is 15.34 oz per lb.

1 Pound = 15.34 oz of Water!!
