1. I lost 53 pounds. pretty much all I did was change the way I ate and a few different food. The biggest thing was to overcome my desire to snack all the time. But I still need to tone up now that the weight is gone. Now comes the exercise.

2. Focus is a key factor . I don’t know what diet your on, I use a mix , that I put together , I find it unique and extremely helpful. I find it easy and fun since im using 3 different “plans” and it never gets boring. I use the Atkins , The south Beach Diet , and the Ketosis plan . Also I like to make it a hobby and read things that surround my goals , example reading blogs, books , articles , etc…Things that can relate to your diet goals. For example I read on http://www.smartdiettoday.com . Everyday theirs new interesting postings , and also where I bought the trio of books from . This is my own strategy I use ( using three diets ) you can do it how ever you like , also it might not be for you , I just find using the same program gets boring and there for wont stick with it . I hope this can help you as it did for me !

   Cheers!!

3. Hi!

   Reading about the Fat Loss 4 Idiots Diet makes you wonder if they might not be on to something. The way the diet works is different than other fad diets that involve cutting out certain types of food like low carbohydrates, low fat or low calorie. Instead it uses calorie shifting foods that you would normally eat, increases the number of times you eat, and changes when you eat certain things for fast fat loss.

   What is Calorie Shifting?

   The way calorie shifting works involves tricking the fat hormones that are sent out by the brain. Every time you eat something, your brain sends out fat storing and fat burning hormones, depending on what the item is.

   The idea is to send more fat burning than fat storing hormones, so that the body does not hold onto the fat for later use. If you keep confusing the metabolism, you will see fast fat loss, as much as 9 pounds in 11 days, that is the first weightloss principle of Fat Loss 4 Idiots Diet.

   How Does The Metabolism Control Weightloss?

   This scientific weight control fact about the metabolism and how it works stems from our ancestry as cavemen, when there were famine periods between hunts. The body would store and hold onto fat for survival. The metabolism has not evolved from this self-defense tactic and doesn’t realize we can just run to the grocery store and get whatever we want.

   On restrictive diets, weightloss can plateau when the metabolism thinks it is experiencing a famine period, and it will only burn what is taken in. Even on some of the popular low carbohydrate diets, it is advised to eat pizza for two days when your weight plateaus to get the metabolism going.

   Why Do Some Weightloss Diets Leave You With No Energy?

   The only problem with many of these restrictive weightloss diets is the metabolism goes back to only burning what you take in and many people complain about being tired and worn down, when it is mainly the metabolism storing up the energy for later.

   By eating healthy, nutritious foods that are fat burning, the metabolism burns as much energy as you need. Many people on restrictive weightloss diets will regain the weight when they go back to eating normal foods.

   What Is The Best Diet For Weightloss?

   The best weight control diet allows you to eat the foods that you would normally eat, have in your refrigerator and cabinets. By timing when you eat certain foods, how many times a day you eat them, and balancing the types of food, your metabolism will burn what you take in and then some, because it knows you will be feeding it again shortly, instead of starving.

   Prepackaged fat loss products and frozen dinners are not something you can live on the rest of your live. You need to understand the basics of natural weight control, and Fat Loss 4 Idiots Diet uses the fundamental principles of controlling the metabolism with calorie shifting normal foods you eat every day.

   Check my source, it might help. It’s a diet that works. Good luck!

4. I am sorry to hear that you are struggling with your weight because I was on the same boat about a year ago. I did not have yahoo answers to help me out like this but someone introduced me to the Smart for Life Cookie Diet and it was a miracle. It sounds like the biggest fad diet out there, but there is a lesson to be learned while losing 12-15 lbs per month. The staff at these centers are great at changing your eating habits and really telling you how to choose better foods, and all this is going on while the weight just melts off. I lost about 50 lbs and have kept the weight off since. I still eat the cookies here and there, but not for weight loss – it is just because I love them.

   Check out their website http://www.thecookiediet.com and let me know what you think. I truly believe it will be the last diet you will try.

9. Not much… Atkins is good if you can commit to sticking with it. Also I had some success with Weight Watchers.
