Losing Weight is Easy
Manage episode 427708689 series 94129
Are you tired of dieting and exercising to lose weight? What if I told you there are other ways to lose weight besides dieting and exercise? Would you believe me? And what if I told you that these three strategies are relatively easy to do? Would you be willing to try them?
In this video, I will provide you with three proven strategies that are guaranteed to help you lose weight easily and quickly, all from the comfort of your own home.
Why is Weight Loss Important?
If you are at a healthy weight relative to your height, then there is no need to focus on weight loss. However, if you’re not at a healthy weight, you definitely want to consider it. Achieving a healthy weight can offer numerous benefits, including a reduced risk of:
- Heart Disease
- Type 2 Diabetes
- Various types of Cancer
- Kidney Disease
- Asthma
Additional benefits of weight loss include:
- Lower Blood Sugar
- Lower Blood Pressure
- Less Stress on the Joints
Many people struggle with weight loss. This video explores three strategies, based on my personal experience, that can be very helpful if you’re looking to lose weight fast and easily.
The First Strategy: Mindset Matters
Napoleon Hill once said in his book "Think and Grow Rich" that “whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve.” Change the way you think, and you will change the way you act. When it comes to losing weight, you either have a negative mindset or a positive mindset. A negative mindset says, “No matter what I do, I can’t lose weight,” or “I’m too old to lose weight,” or “I tried before and failed.” In contrast, a positive mindset says, “I can do this, one step at a time,” “It’s never too late to start,” and “It’s progress, not perfection!”
The Second Strategy: Stop Eating Late at Night
Our metabolism slows down at night. Eating before bedtime forces our bodies to digest food when it is least efficient, leading to stored extra calories as fat. We end up loading our bodies with fuel that it doesn’t have the capacity or time to burn.
I know we live busy and stressful lives, and sometimes this stress makes us want to grab a late-night snack before going to bed. However, if you want to lose weight, especially around the midsection, allow for a 3-4 hour window between your last meal and bedtime. This aids digestion and can potentially reduce weight gain around the midsection.
The Third Strategy: Intermittent Fasting
For those unfamiliar with intermittent fasting, it is essentially time-restricted eating. You only eat during a specific time window. It’s not dieting; it’s just another way of eating. And just in case you think you can’t fast, think again. Every human being on this planet fasts. When you go to bed at night and wake up 6, 7, 8, or more hours later, you have fasted. When you eat your first meal in the morning, you are breaking the fast, which is why it’s called “breakfast.”
But why is intermittent fasting one of the most powerful tools for losing weight fast and easily? Because it’s natural, safe, and effective, unlike the highly promoted weight loss drugs like Ozempic or Wegovy. Intermittent fasting has no side effects; our ancestors practiced it thousands of years ago out of necessity. If there was no food available for a week or two, they had to fast until their next meal.
Another benefit of intermittent fasting is that it is FREE! It won’t cost you a dime. As a matter of fact, it will end up putting more money in your pocket.
There are various intermittent fasting methods, but the most popular is the 16:8 method, which I do on occasion. This method involves limiting your intake of food and calorie-containing beverages to an 8-hour window each day. You abstain from food for the remaining 16 hours, though you’re still allowed to drink water and other no-calorie beverages like black coffee or tea. You can choose to start your fast at 8:00 p.m. and fast until the next day at 12:00 p.m., a total of 16 hours, after which you break the fast with a light meal.
Your body will have food cravings throughout the day. These cravings will only last for about 20 minutes or so and then will cease. Why? Because your body will feed off your stored fat, causing you to lose weight. When we exercise, our bodies burn off carbs, fats, and then proteins in that order. But if you haven’t eaten in 16 hours, there are no carbs to burn off, so your body will look for the next fuel source, which is fat. This is why food cravings go away after about 20 minutes because our bodies find their next fuel source—fat!
