Losing weight isn't that big a deal!
For most people, the bigger problem seems to be keeping weight off. That generally means finding a diet they can stay with -- something few people can do.
But there may be a solution.
What I propose, here, should be your answer. You'll see why, once you put it to use.
Why do I call this an 'Antidiet Diet?'
Because you're not really limited in what you can eat, or rather, in what you can choose to eat. And except for a couple of restrictions, you can eat pretty much anything you like.
That's right, with The Amazing Antidiet Diet, you can actually sit down to a meal you can enjoy.
And there is no calorie counting.
While the program isn't really hard, it will take some discipline at the start. Eventually, it should become automatic, almost second nature to you.
Once it does, you'll not only lose weight but keep it off.
You'll be eating better, too.
THE AMAZING ANTIDIET DIET
How You Can Eat Better & Lose Weight
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Controlling Your CravingsWeight gain is, by-and-large, a matter of habit -- the bad habit of giving in and satisfying certain cravings, whether for sweets, salty snacks, or even alcohol -- the old beer belly.
Some people will try every new diet that comes along. They will lose weight, sometimes a lot of weight, then gain it back once they end the diet because they can't control their cravings.
Another part of the problem is nutrition.
My observation is that many overweight people are actually under nourished.
Why?
Because rather than eating foods packed with nutrition, foods that are good for them, they are, in effect, living on garbage. Furthermore, they may be overeating because their bodies crave needed nutrients. For example, they may be eating salty snacks because their system needs minerals. Unfortunately, all they will get from salty snacks is a load of sodium and unneeded carbohydrates. And gain more weight.
The power of The Amazing Antidiet Diet is based on its ability to deal with cravings. First, by satisfying the natural cravings for nutrients. Then, by transforming the habitual cravings you've learned to your advantage.
There are two products I would recommend you use with this program. VitaOne and the Appetizer Diet shake.
VitaOne is an excellent supplement consisting of 7 caplets/tablets that are rich in vitamins, minerals, enzymes, phospholipids and antioxidants. It will give you the good things your body needs so that your body can stop looking for them and you can stop scrounging around in the 'trash' -- the junk food world.
I would also recommend the Appetizer Diet shake. The Appetizer Diet is a breakthrough beverage that will help you reduce your cravings for fattening foods.
By drinking an Appetizer Diet shake about 30 minutes before a meal as an "appetizer," your cravings will be reduced, you feel satisfied with fewer calories, and you will feel fuller, longer. You'll love it's delicious peaches and cream taste.
Using these products is the easy part. Transforming your habitual cravings into healthier choices takes some discipline, but it can be done. The idea is to select a breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack you really like, then eat them every day. That's right, the same things every day. These should be healthy selections, low in carbohydrates: specifically, refined sugars and starches.
By sticking with your choices, you should find that by the third week your cravings for other things will vanish and that you will actually begin to crave your selections!
Once you get your cravings under control and are wanting the same foods at the same time every day, your weight loss will probably come to a standstill. If it does, your options are to exercise more, eat smaller portions, or both. Having an Appetizer Diet shake 30 to 45 minutes before your meal should help you reduce the size of your portions. As for exercise, I would suggest walking.
Walking is probably the safest and best exercises there is. It's been shown that walking just 2000 extra steps daily, that's about a mile, can keep you from putting on any extra pounds. Increase it to 4000 or 6000 steps, and you will start losing weight. Most people can comfortably walk a mile in about 15 minutes. I've found that once I got into the walking habit, when that time of day came, I wanted to take my walk. In a sense, I had developed a craving for walking.
What about foods?
Let's look at breakfast. Don't choose a sugary cereal. And pancakes and syrup might not be a good choice, either. Instead, have something like scrambled eggs, toast with butter, and orange juice. You know, the kind of breakfast people used to eat, at least when I was a kid.
For lunch, why not a hot turkey or hot roast beef sandwich. Or if you're out there, something like a Whopper. If you're big, you can even make it two! Just skip the fries, skip the shake, and skip the soda. They're unnecessary carbs for your body to store as excess fat. Have a coffee or have milk. Once you get used to it, a medium coffee with three creams and no sugar starts to taste really good.
Dinner? Again go with something good. The old meat, potatoes, and a tossed salad or other vegetable never hurt anyone, weight-wise. Steak, roast beef, chicken? It's your choice. Potato? Baked or mashed is fine. Butter? No problem!
For an evening snack, I don't know if you can do much better than strawberries and whipped cream! Or peaches and cream! They're great combinations that don't have to be sugared up, and they do have nutritional value. Berries are practically a health food! You might also consider an Appetizer Diet shake as your snack.
As for fats, unless you have a serious problem with cholesterol or something like that, there is nothing wrong with them. In fact you need them. It's the sugars and starches that are converted into the fat your body stores, not the fat you eat! Butter is better for you than margarine. And whipped cream is better for you than something like Cool Whip! And I don't know why some people think that sugar has to be put into whipped cream like they do with those aerosol toppings. It doesn't. Buy heavy cream and whip it yourself.
With that said, let's get ready for D-Day. That's Diet Day, if you haven't guessed!
It might be a good idea to do a weigh-in before you begin to record your starting point. Then stay off the scale until a week has passed before you measure your progress.
Week One
DAY 1
D-Day... Diet Day!
Today you will select your foods, the things you will learn to crave and enjoy. You'll want to choose good foods that you like, and by good, I mean foods that are good for you. For example, a hot turkey or roast beef sandwich is preferable to pizza. And strawberries and whipped cream is preferable to a sugary, starchy snack such as cake and frosting.
Remember, you'll want to eat the same amount and at the same time each day.
You don't have to try to eat smaller portions at the start, but you may want to reduce them once your cravings are in place. The Appetizer Diet shake can help you keep the size of your portions down.
You can begin doing this all at once, or you can start with one meal then schedule it, stick to it, and add the rest.
And don't forget to schedule your walking time.
Now is also the time to order your VitaOne and Appetizer Diet. Consider them for breakfast for jump-starting your weight loss program.
To sum up:
Choose a meal or meals with which you'd like to begin and decide on what non-junk food you would enjoy eating for that meal. Controlling your cravings is a gradual process. You can start it with just one meal and gradually introduce the rest.
Schedule your 15 minute walk. And take it.
Get some VitaOne and Appetizer Diet shake and incorporate them into your program when they arrive.
DAY 2
Start your day with a good breakfast of your choice. Remember to avoid sugar. Minimize starch, unless you include a good whole grain cereal. Oatmeal, or rolled oats is a grain that can't be beat. And it can reduce cholesterol.
Get the "old fashioned" variety. I've found that I can quickly prepare it in a microwave by placing one-third cup of rolled oats into a cereal bowl, adding two-thirds cup of water and a few shakes of salt, cooking it for 123 seconds, and letting it sit for a few minutes. I call it my "1-2-3 Oatmeal." I used to add milk but now eat it plain. Some people like it with butter.
If you've made your selection for lunch, stick to it. If not, choose something good that you are considering.
If you've made your selection for dinner, stick to it. Otherwise, choose something good that you are considering.
Don't forget your scheduled walk.
And don't forget your evening snack. What good thing would you like to eat before bedtime?
DAY 3
If you've decided on a breakfast, stick with it. At least until the VitaOne and Appetizer Diet shake arrives.
Stick with your lunch or dinner plan. And your walk.
Don't forget your evening snack -- as if you could!
Remember, make it something good, like fresh fruit and whipped cream. Not a bag of Doritos!
DAY 4
If you've decided on a breakfast, stick with it. At least until the VitaOne and Appetizer Diet shake arrives.
Stick with your lunch or dinner plan. And your walk.
Don't forget your evening snack. Remember, make it something good.
Are you beginning to see a pattern, here?
DAY 5
Are you getting used to the drill?
Good!
By week three you should start to want what you've chosen for yourself.
Isn't it nice to be on an 'antidiet diet' that allows you to choose for yourself?
Just make good choices! And follow through.
And don't forget the walk.
DAY 6
You may or may not have your VitaOne and Appetizer Diet by now. You can make them your breakfast choice, or incorporate them into your overall plan. Just take a VitaOne packet with your meal. Preferably breakfast. Then use the Appetizer Diet shake 30 to 45 minutes before lunch and/or dinner to help reduce the amount of food you crave.
Don't forget to stick with your pattern. Including the walk. And if you haven't made all your meal choices by now, it would be good to complete your selections. See if you can't have everything in place by the time you start week two. If you haven't chosen your snack, yet, the Appetizer Diet makes a nice popsicle. Try it! Especially if you live in an area that's always hot.
DAY 7
Do you have your choices down?
Are you sticking with them?
Are you starting to like it?
Great!
Continue to work your plan.
And don't forget your first week's weigh-in at the end of the day.
Week Two
DAY 8
Whoa! One week done. Did you get any sleep after the weigh-in? How are you doing? Remember, you're looking for slow but steady progress, but you can speed things up by eating smaller portions -- the Appetizer Diet can help -- so can walking more steps.
If you're not showing any progress, are you sure you're not cheating?
Remember, you get to eat what you like but cut out the sugar and cut down on the starch.
If you've been drinking soft drinks, shame on you!
Make any necessary adjustments, and work your plan.
DAY 9
You know the drill!
Would you like a success story?
I know a woman, in her 50's, who's basically followed this plan for nearly two years. I say basically, because she does use a small amount of sugar with her breakfast cereal and eats blackout fudge sheet cake for her evening snack! Yet, she manages to keep her weight pretty constant even though she gets very little exercise.
She's disabled. She's lost the use of one leg. She never gets out. She uses a walker.
DAY 10
Is it getting any easier? Are you feeling any better?
Just eating a better selection of foods should help in that respect. Combine it with the power of VitaOne and you may soon feel a remarkable difference.
Carry on!
DAY 11
Are your cravings starting to come under your control?
Stay with it, they should within a couple more weeks.
DAY 12
From here on in, you can probably do it without me. But I'll stick around for moral support!
Remember, this isn't hard.
You got to choose what you wanted.
Soon you'll begin to want what you've chosen!
DAY 13
Do the people in your home think you've flipped?
You're not making them follow your plan, are you?
You better not be!
Like all great undertakings this should be between you and God!
Carry on!
DAY 14
Wow! The end of the second week.
Same-old. Same-old.
Except for the weigh-in at bedtime.
If you think it might effect your sleep, you can save it 'till the morning!
Week Three
DAY 15
I hope you're doing well.
Are you making any progress?
Are you feeling any better than you did two weeks ago?
If staying with the same foods hasn't gotten any easier, yet, it should in another week or so.
Please continue!
DAY 16
Congratulations on being here!
You've got what it takes and you should be rewarded.
Stay with it, and you will be!
DAY 17
How have your clothes been fitting, lately?
Are you getting any comments?
Any looks?
Is anyone noticing a change?
Are you?
DAY 18
So what should we do today?
Let's see...
Eat the same breakfast.
Eat the same lunch.
Eat the same dinner.
Eat the same snack.
Don't let me remind you again!
You don't have to take the same walk, but do walk.
DAY 19
It's actually a pretty liberal diet, isn't it? Three squares and something good for the old sweet tooth, besides!
Any complaints?
DAY 20
Have you noticed it's easier?
Great!
Don't quit now.
DAY 21
Well, if you've stuck with your plan you should start to begin to want the things you've chosen. That means your cravings are coming under control.
Congratulations!
Now don't forget your weigh-in for week three, tonight.
Week Four
DAY 22
Just another day, isn't it?
Except you probably weigh less and like what you're doing.
I told you so!
DAY 23
Time sure does fly when you're having fun.
I hope you're having fun with this and passing the word around.
It's a lot different from some of the fad diets you've probably tried, isn't it?
DAY 24
Remember the disabled woman I told you about? The one who's been doing something like this for almost two years? Would you like to know what she has for dinner every night?
Five green olives
One 5 ounce glass of V-8 Vegetable Juice
Tossed salad with croutons and a dressing she makes herself by mixing some ketchup into mayonnaise. Looks kind of like French dressing.
One big or two smaller skinless, boneless chicken breasts marinated in Italian dressing and grilled on a George Foreman 'Grilling Machine.'
Mashed potatoes.
Coffee
If someone offers her something else, she refuses, though she has, on a couple of occasions, eaten broiled scallops from a restaurant she used to like -- when her sister or daughter have surprised her with them.
You may someday be seeing yourself doing the same thing with the foods you've chosen!
DAY 25
My-oh-my! Thirty days is almost upon us.
Upon you, I should say.
I'm just a cheerleader in this game. Your game.
And it looks like you're winning!
DAY 26
You're in the home stretch, now. There's no turning back.
Do you like being in control, for change -- and how you're beginning to look and feel.
DAY 27
The suspense is mounting!
What will tomorrow's weigh-in bring?
DAY 28
Four weeks have passed.
What's the scale say?
Have you been successful?
My feeling is that if you've followed the guidelines and stayed with the program, that you are.
Can you see yourself continuing this?
It's not like you've been starving yourself, has it?
Just eating better things, I hope!
Now, what will you be eating, tomorrow?
Conclusion
You can control your cravings.
You can train your body to want what's good for you.
You can even control your appetite, the amount you eat, by drinking a healthy Appetizer Diet shake 30 to 45 minutes before a meal.
Carbohydrates are the main culprit. Sugar and starch. The stuff so many junk foods are made of -- made to taste good while they kill you.
If you're having potatoes, pass up the rolls.
If your're eating a bun, pass up the fries.
Avoid sticky sweet deserts. Cookies and cakes. And all those salty snacks in the soda isle that only make you want to drink more soda.
Avoid soda. Not only is it adding empty calories and ugly pounds, it's wiping out your immune system and leaching away your teeth and bones.
And the hydrogenated fats and oils in those snacks are literally killing you.
Losing weight really can be as easy as eating well.
That's what The Amazing Antidiet Diet is all about.
An Even Easier Way
"Wow! Eating the same things at the same time every day. Walking. And possibly reducing the amounts. There must be an easier way."
If that's your lament, the good news is that now there may very well be something easier. Something that's only been around since about March of 2003. The Appetizer Diet shake.
You've heard me mention it before, in conjunction with The Amazing Antidiet Diet plan.
But there's more.
The Appetizer Diet shake was designed as a stand-alone dieting solution.
So if you lack motivation, lack discipline, or lack true desire, there might still be hope for shedding those inches and pounds.
You won't lose weight as fast as if you combined Appetizer Diet with The Amazing Antidiet Diet, but when using the Appetizer Diet, all you have to do is drink a shake about 30 minutes before a meal.
You can eat anything you want. Anytime you want. The Appetizer Diet shake is not a meal replacement but a before meal appetizer that helps satisfy your appetite so that you naturally eat less without having to feel hungry.
So if you'd rather not follow The Amazing Antidiet Diet formula, consider the Appetizer Diet approach.
Dieting doesn't get any easier than that!
