There is a “miraculous” story in the paper today from the world famous Havard university saying that………………………………………………………..are you ready for this?
Its not the calories that are so important, it’s the QUALITY OF FOOD that’s vital in terms of weight loss. Believe it or not, they said that lean proteins, fruit and vegetables, good carbs and portion control were the overwhelming and long term weight loss!!!!! Nuts in moderation were considered great for you because of their essential fats, wholegrains were considered vital and one amazing fact was……………………another drum roll, alcohol they said was a massive factor in putting weight on!!!!!!
Okay, the sarcasm stops now but hopefully you get the point.
We bang on here every day going on about the same thing all the time, but it just so happens that this “same old thing” happens to be true, and needs to be hammered home until people get it, and don’t waste all their money on faddy diets, and faddy exercise equipment!!!
Im not pretending to be a know all in anything, but I do tend to know what works and what doesn’t, I tend to know when someone or some organisation is trying to scam you out of your hard earned money!!!
So the Harvard university study comes up with all of this after a big budget thrown at it and it makes front page news, and nobody, and I mean nobody could be happier than me!!!
This is the time to embrace it all again, the time to realise it’s the quality that counts and not tediously counting everything. Of course if you DO EAT too many calories, you WILL put weight on even if you are eating quality food.
This is how rugby players get a lot bigger of course and develop a lot of muscle for example.
The reality is though if you eat sensible portions the size of your fist, you will look and feel fantastic over time, this is finally a fact and check put the front pages to prove it!!!!!!!!!!
