In this episode my guest is your body, sharing information about
fat loss.
- I really am lazy and I don’t like carrying this extra fat
around any more than you do
- It’s not what you burn during exercise that matters for fat
loss
- When you exercise more and eat less I get confused
- When I’m confused I’m going to protect you by storing fat
- When I need to shed weight under stress I shed muscle, fat, and
water
- I can’t function very well without consuming fat
- I definitely can’t function without water so one of the things
I have to shut down right away is your metabolism
- Those processed chemicals confuse me and prevent fat loss
- Every diet trick you ever learned about losing weight was wrong
(like eat for volume – not for nutrients, like calories in calories
out is what matters, like if you’re hungry it means you’re losing
weight, like salads are best for weight loss, like cutting out
carbs will result in rapid fat loss, like the scale showing weight
loss means success)
- I am so resilient that I can get by on nearly no food for days
and still not lose fat
- It’s true I lose muscle with age which makes me fatter even if
I don’t gain fat … but only if you don’t do anything to prevent it:
lift weights twice a week, eat more protein for two first steps –
that will help a lot!
- I really don’t process protein very well so keep it coming
- The less active I am the more you need protein
- I prefer to move every day all day instead of exercising so
hard for an hour – I really can’t do both so if you exhaust me in
the gym it probably will backfire on you and your fat loss
goals
- Hours of weight training don’t really make me any more fit or
more lean than reaching fatigue with a few sets in a few
minutes
- It cracks me up when you think you can tone your arms after not
paying attention to my major muscle groups for years
- If I don’t tell you I’m hungry beginning maybe at 3 or more
hours after and for sure around 4-5 hours after my last meal,
something’s wrong
- When I’m hungry, feed me good food
- When I’m thirsty you waited too long to give me pure unfiltered
water
- When I’m tired I need to rest better
- I love a challenge and respond by getting stronger, faster, and
having more endurance… if you give me the food and rest I need to
do it
- Any of those other models of aging you see that have put on fat
with age is just because they didn’t have the right
information…
- If you start to take better care of me right now no matter how
old I am I will respond positively with more energy, better mood,
better sleep and ultimately with fat loss so we can have a good
time.
If you’re struggling with fat loss listeners to this
episode can take advantage of Fit-U at 50% off the regular rate
right now during the Flip Your New Year special
at flippingfifty.com/fit-u
After 50, you have less wiggle room. Before fat loss can happen
you need to lose old thoughts about dieting and exercise. You may
need to lose toxins stored in your fat, and reduce
inflammation.
I walk you through all of it and how to exercise optimally for
fat loss not just tired and sore; how to spare muscles loss, and
feel better so you can sleep well, be more resilient, and have more
stable energy. When you start caring for yourself you get on the
path to permanent weight loss with lifestyle changes not a
diet.
Foods you used to think are “healthy” may be causing your fat
storage and preventing your fat burning. While you’ll give up a
handful of them temporarily… you’ll have the opportunity to
experience four different recipe books full of foods that are easy
to prepare, simple to find, and taste wonderful. Plus, I’ll be
there every week live with you responding to questions in the
private Facebook group – and during the week jumping in daily to
respond to questions.
Weight and fat loss results are unique to every individual going
through the program. Decades-long habits and thoughts that have
increased inflammation and toxic storage won’t change overnight but
you will experience more energy, more clear thinking, and better
sleep (if you need to improve it) within weeks.
You also will resist. Change is hard! I don’t ignore that – I
coach you through it so that you can experience fat loss.
Let’s talk specifics so you can start some fat loss enhancing
habits and stop some fat loss inhibiting habits today!
