| Eat and Get Thin

Contrary to what the media has told you, you do not have
to starve yourself to get thin. In fact, the opposite is
actually true. By feeding your body on a regular basis,
you can actually lose pound after pound until you
reach your ideal body weight. Moreover, you will not
feel the constant pain of hunger, and you will have
more energy than you could have thought possible. All
from eating regularly.
Undoubtedly, you are shaking your head saying this is
impossible. Make no mistake, it is fact. The secret lies
in eating foods that are good for your body in the proper
portion multiple times per day. You may think that most
bodybuilders spend hours in the gym every day and count
every calorie. In reality, most work out no more than
one hour per day, and most eat six to eight meals every
day, not including a midnight snack. Can you imagine having
the physique of a bodybuilder by merely increasing our
meals? It is possible.
Please remember, it is possible. However, you must make
some fundamental changes to your diet and the portions that
you eat. First of all, you must eat healthy at least 75% of
the time. That means that 75% of the food that you put
in your body must contain few saturated fats, not be
fried, and contain a moderate amount of good
nutrition. The other 25% is at your discretion. Personally I prefer ice
cream and candy bars.
When thinking about the nutrition of your food, remember
that leafy green vegetables, and oat meal provide excellent
sources of carbohydrates. Meats such as chicken and fish
(NOT FRIED) provide a tremendous source of protein, and
nuts such as almonds and walnuts provide a healthy source of
fats.
Most of us know what is considered eating healthy, but we
end up not losing a pound because we eat in the wrong proportions,
and we wait until we are hungry. The result of waiting
until you are hungry is that you will either override
your desire for healthy foods by going for something high
in calories such as a hamburger. If you can hold off your hunger
cravings until you prepare your meal, you will invariably over eat.
The secret is to eat every two to three hours. Eat a small amount
of healthy food before your hunger and cravings take over. Eating
this way will allow you to go through the day without hunger,
and you will actually lose weight.
As I said above, the other implication of waiting until
you are hungry is that you will eat in the wrong
proportion. When eating to lose weight, make sure that
every serving of carbohydrate (bread, oatmeal, pasta,
vegetables) is eaten with a serving of protein; some
form of protein (eggs, fish, chicken, etc.) Make sure
that neither portion is not larger than your fist, and eat the food
until you feel satisfied, not until the food is gone. Once again,
never eat a carbohydrate without taking in some form of protein,
and never wait until you are hungry to eat.
Believe it or not, it is that simple. Eat all the time,
and keep the serving ratios of carbohydrates to protein about one to one
with a few nuts occasionally added for flavor. Eat
this way five times per week and splurge on the
weekend. You will be amazed at how many pounds you can
actually lose by eating properly only 75% of the time.
