What I did was simple because I'm not the brightest bulb and I get confused when given too much information...
First rule of weight loss is
portion control. This is the number one reason why gastric bypass surgery works so dramatically. If you want to lose weight, you must eat less.
Second Rule: Eat mostly
fruits and vegetables. Most Americans don't do this. Humans are primarily meant to eat a plant based diet. Asian countries such as China, Japan and Korea eat twice as much plant based foods as Americans...
Third Rule:
Walk. Start with 5 minutes, out, and 5 minutes, back. If that hurts, throttle back. When it stops hurting, throttle up. I'm up to 40 minutes, out, and 40 minutes, back.
I haven't experienced pain of any kind in over 4 years, now.
Fourth Rule: I
sleep 6 hours every night. I sleep at the same time at night and wake up, without a clock, the same time each morning. It is next to impossible to lose weight without proper,
uninterrupted sleep. It's not so much the hours are critical. It's the "uninterrupted" part that is critical. Get tired; Go to sleep.
I call this the "Darwin" method of weight loss because
this is what all animals do in nature. Wild animals don't have weight problems. Animals don't need dieticians, therapists, trainers, physicians, medications or surgery.
They live life, simple, and they repeat with precision.
Consider this...Science have been studying weight loss for over 100 years. The result: Our society has become
more
unhealthy. The only reasonable conclusion is
foods that are made/manufactured are not providing proper nutrition and actually causing us to eat more...It is the American diet that is the cause of
insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction. Obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, hyertension...all primary causes of premature death in America.
It's just that simple...
