Don't Worry... Be Happy

I have given some shortcuts to help you get started with the Fad Diets That Work protocol... but I don't want you to get stressed out and completely change the way you eat overnight.

That is the failure of so many who try to change their diet to lose weight. They read about some new diet plan that they think they can follow and they resolve to do it.

It starts out OK and they lose a few pounds. In just a few weeks though... sometimes the very week after they start... one of two things happen:

1. They stop losing weight. The dreaded plateau. It's discouraging and they give up. -or-

2. The diet isn't really something they enjoy... or it doesn't really fit with their lifestyle... or it's just too restrictive and they start craving something not allowed on the diet.

One or both of those things lead them to stop the diet or temporarily cheat... or binge. They feel guilty. That didn't work before. It's not going to work now.

Stop the guilt trips on yourself. It just doesn't work. Do NOT use the short cut tips I gave as an excuse to do the above. I told you about minerals and eating real food and avoiding wheat and sugar and corn ONLY as shortcuts... not as hard and fast rules that you have to follow or else you are a failure and have no will power and blah, blah, blah. This isn't about feeling guilty. It isn't about rules. It isn't about will power. None of those things worked before and we aren't advocating that you try them again.

There is never a reasoon to feel guilty on the Fad Diets That Work protocol. If you don't like the short cuts, don't do them. I mean it. Ignore them entirely. They have absolutely nothing to do with the Fad Diets That Work protocol. They are short cuts and that is all. If they don't suit you, then don't take them. That means they aren't short cuts for you.

The Fad Diets That Work protocol is to simply record what you eat each week and measure the results every day. Average those results over the week and calculate the deltas... how much fat you gained or lost... how much your blood sugar went up or down... how much your percentage of fat changed, etc).

Average those deltas for each kind of food that you eat over time and you have the real numbers for you. You will then know that eating spinach causes you to lose an average of 0.21 pounds per day... and eating a Big Mac causes you to gain an average of 0.31 pounds per day on average (or whatever your numbers are).

You will find foods that you thought would cause weight gain, but actually cause weight loss for you. You will find foods that you thought were really fattening, but really are only mildly fattening. You can then eat them when you are OK with the consequences of eating those foods.

You will find other foods that you really thought would help you lose weight... but actually turn out to be weight gainers for you. You won't believe that you used to suffer through eating that cottage cheese and celery even though you hated them... just to lose weight... when it turns out that both are weight gainers for your body.

None of that data should ever make you feel guilty. This isn't about will power and failing and feeling guilty. It's just about gathering the data. Francis Bacon said that knowledge is power. That's what the Fad Diets That Work protocol is all about. It is about getting the knowledge about how your body works. Once you have that knowledge... you can team it up with the knowledge you have always had about what foods you enjoy eating. You will have a list of dozens of foods that you really enjoy... and that consistently allow you to lose weight.

When you get to your target weight, there is another list of foods that you really enjoy... that are neutral for weight loss or cause slight weight increase. You can eat them knowing exactly what they will do for your body. You can even eat the most fattening food on your list if you want.

The most fattening food on your list will not increase your fat % by more than 1% in a single day. And you have a list of foods that you enjoy that can reduce your amount of fat by that same amount in just one day. So why not eat it and eat the other food to balance it out the next day?

That really is power... the power that comes with knowledge. So don't worry about your will power. Don't worry that you might not be able to attain your target weight. You can. It's just numbers. It's not about will power.

You don't need any will power to succeed at all. All you need is to start gathering the data so that you know what each food you like to eat does to your body. Then you eat the foods you enjoy that do what you want to your body.

There is nothing to worry about. There is everything to be happy about. So... don't worry. Be happy. You are now on the path to having your dream body. You simply can't fail with the Fad Diets That Work protocol. You also can't find a better diet plan because the Fad Diets That Work protocol encompasses and includes every other diet plan. You can do the low carb diet next week. The following week, you can do a vegetarian diet. The week after you can do a carnivore diet.

All diet plans are included. You will never get tired of the same old food because you will be swapping eating plans every week. If you are OK with routines and eating the same old thing, that's OK too... Once you have some data.

Once you have a list of foods that cause you to lose weight, you are free to create a routine diet plan... That you eat over and over every week. Some people really like that. If that's you, go for it.

Just get the data first and build the routine eating plan to include foods that do what you want to do for your body. Once you reach your target weight, maybe you'll decide you want to gain some muscle. Maybe you'll even decide to become a body builder. You will already have the data on which foods increase your muscle mass while keeping your fat % low.

You can use the Fad Diets That Work protocol to gain or lose weight. It doesn't matter. You can also use it to normalize blood sugar if you are diabetic or to reduce LDL cholesterol if you have that problem. You can use it for anything that can be measured. All without will power. All without ever going hungry. All without ever feeling guilty. All without ever exercising. All without ever eating foods that you hate.

It's your dream. You want to lose weight. You want the body of your dreams. You hate exercise. You hate eating low calorie food. You hate failing. Y ou hate binging. You hate the guilt. The Fad Diets That Work protocol gives you your dream body without any of the things you hate. So what are you waiting for? You will succeed. So let's get started!
