Hello my friends! After doing my post “Intermittent fasting vs Calorie restriction” I received so many questions. Silly me, I forgot to ask you guys if you even know what it is. So, what is Intermittent Fasting, really?
Who need some powerful motivation here? I want to share something that helped me and many other people to achieve their health and weight loss goals. If you just think about losing some pounds before summer or because you want to see certain number on your scale and follow a harsh, short term diet to achieve the desired result, there is a big chance that the weight will be coming back. I really believe that if you start your weight loss journey with thoughts of becoming healthy and in tune with your body and mind you can achieve better and long lasting results.
The classic method of fasting is lowering the number of calories you eat. A lot of people find this method hard to stick with and now studies suggest it might not be the most effective method. Remember when metabolism drops, weight loss plateaus. Caloric reduction forces the body to shut down in order to match the lowered caloric intake.
Why is it that when you are trying to lose weight it usually slows down, stops, and often starts back up again, even if you are following the same awesome diet that was so successful? I can imagine it is very disappointing. You probably are wondering, “what is happening to my body” and “why is it so stubborn?” So you cut back on even more calories or give up.
The right carbs play a fundamental role in our bodies and support increased energy, overall health, and weightloss. Carbs can be good for your heart, help to keep your memory sharp and boost your mood. But when you are trying to lose weight fast, are they the right choice?
