We have discovered that a calorie is not a calorie certainly. We know there is a difference between a doughnut and an apple, at least i think we do and we have really ditched the 1000 calorie a day workouts haven’t we? Those days of beverley callard in the paper advising people to do her exercise videos and eat cardboard all day are surely at an end arent they?

The difference between now and then is we have even more knowledge than we did back then, perhaps 15-20 years ago, but somehow the obesity levels are still going up, alarmingly so in fact!! So how does that happen?!!

It happens most of the time because we eat too much refined sugar and too much saturated fat.

Then we go on a diet, and then severely restrict our calories, lose some weight, get fed up with it all and pile the weight back on again, and we miss the point every single time.

We talked about it yesterday, not once do we care about the quality of our food, its all about calories, calories, calories, calories and thats why a lot of us become unstuck and lose the plot………….once again.

I have said it a million times, how about concentrating on what we actually put in our mouths, rather than the calories. The food can be full of chemicals designed to destroy your insides over time, give you high blood pressure, put strain on your heart, clog your arteries up, yet we still eat those foods because they are ONLY 100 CALORIES!!!!! This is absolutely no reason to eat rubbish, because its always going to be destined to fail.

Lets get this one straight, PROCESSED FOOD IS NO GOOD FOR YOUR BODY AND NO GOOD FOR YOUR LONG TERM WEIGHT LOSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So this wonder theory i have about asking yourself every time you eat food, “is this food really going to do my insides good?”, isnt this a valid question to ask? If you can answer yes very much most of the time, THEN YOU WILL LOOK AND FEEL GOOD!!!

Hows that for a straight answer, simplifying everything and getting fired up for your fat loss efforts, keep it simple and you get very simple but powerful results!!!!!!
