Are you tired of portion control? Do you want to eat - A LOT - and still wake up the next morning to find out the bathroom scale has gone down? The fastest, and smartest, weight loss diets show you how to ADD the right foods into your daily routine to maximize fat loss and minimize hunger and cravings.
It may seem logical to eat less when you want to lose weight. However, this is creates a perfect diet storm:
- For one thing you are constantly hungry because you are not feeding your body enough.
- Secondly, your constant hunger is keeping your mind focused on food (not what you want to do when you are trying to lose weight).
- And, lastly your lack of food is causing your hormones to go haywire.
Hormones are so important and so overlooked when it comes to losing weight. You have two key hormones that you need to know at least a little bit about when it comes to weight loss. The first is ghrelin and the second is leptin. With just a little knowledge of these two game changers you will make your weight loss a lot easier.
Ghrelin is a hormone that tells your brain to send more food. Think of a bad little gremlin saying "feed me" as a memory jogger. Ghrelin stimulates your appetite and the only way to quiet this hormone is to eat. By the way, ghrelin also causes abdominal fat to build up - bad ghrelin!
Leptin can be thought of as the opposite of ghrelin. When leptin levels are high your appetite is barely noticeable. Typical diets cause your leptin levels to plummet because you cut back on how much you are eating.
So to balance out your hormones, control hunger and cravings, and allow your fat to burn off quickly you need to eat a lot on a diet.
This is why I say the fastest weight loss diets show you how to ADD the right foods into your day. The right foods are those that are naturally high in nutrients and naturally low in calories. I like to call these foods, Super Foods, because, well...they are Super!
One of the reasons super foods work for dieters is because they are packed with fiber, which fills your belly and keeps hunger away. Fiber also stays in your stomach longer and slows digestion so your hormones stay balanced and your appetite goes away.
The average person gets between 10 to 15 grams of fiber per day. This is dismally low amount and it is why you can go from one fast food meal to the next and never feel full. Fast food is pitifully low in fiber.
The easiest trick in the book when it comes to dieting for fast weight loss is to ADD high fiber foods to your diet. High fiber foods include:
- Oatmeal
- Blueberries
- Walnuts
- Salad Greens
- Green Peppers
- Tomatoes
- Onions
- Carrots
- Celery
- Almonds
- Beans
- Flax Seed
- Apples
Your goal should be to add enough high fiber foods to reach 40 grams of fiber a day. These foods are naturally low in calories and will kill your appetite for high calorie snacks. The end result, the excess weight drops off faster and faster the more you eat!
These high fiber foods are just one way you can add more foods and lose weight faster. By choosing the right foods you will see the fastest weight loss results you ever experienced and never look back - and never be hungry.
