Best Diet Tips?
" you also burn calories when you do nothing. You are using confusing terminology. in your example, you can eat 5000 calories per day and exercise 3720, and burn 2280 more calorie by simply being alive. Anyway, I think that we understand each other. Eating less by equivalent of 1 big mac per day and walking 2 hours per day is a good start. i comprendo. Thanks for the explanations. Why did you change your handle from Ignoramus2586 to Ignoramus7404? |

What your best (very short please) diet tips? Pick one of the popular books. Read it. Follow the instructions in the book. Do NOT assume that just because you disagree with the book at some point it must be leaving stuff out and do your own thing. Actually follow the actual instructions. Yes, some of the instructions will run agains tthe obvious. That's because the authors spent years or even decades designing their plan and in their experiments they came up with the some stuff that runs against the obvious that also works better than the obvious. When you follow the instructions, follow the core ones. Do not search through the book looking for justification to do what you think is the right thing. You *will* be tempted to do that and most likely if you search you *will* find discussion of your exception that looks like it gives you permission. Do not allow yourself to get sucked into this trap. Follow the directions that you don't want to follow. When you follow the directions, take the directions from the book itself not from rumors and magazines and so on. Few folks have any idea what's actually involved in any one plan. It takes a major leap of faith to follow the instructions in the face of your own doubts. Take that leap of faith. Try it the way it says. You will be pleased with the results. Do that and it almost doesn't matter which of the popular books you pick. They all work when you follow their plans as they are actually written. So how do you select which book to use when I've written that it doesn't really matter? I guess you could just pick my favorite Doctor Atkins New Diet Revolution. But I was serious that any one you pick will work fine. Make your own choice and don't look back. |

Never give up!
If you have a cheat day, get back on track. If you gain weight, don't think that all is lost! Stay focused and positive and just keep at it! "MelbaTatum" wrote in message ... What your best (very short please) diet tips? |
