Weight Loss For Women-Low Calorie Diets Do Not Work

If I read that you must use more calories then you consume to lose weight one more time I'm going to scream.

Yes, the only way to lose weight is to burn more then you eat but there is one tiny, little detail that the guru's who are trying to sell you something and the companies who make the plan and all of the hundreds of thousands of other people trying to get you to buy something is, YOU JUST CAN'T REDUCE YOUR CALORIES and expect to lose weight.

This is so easy to understand but never mentioned by the low calorie weight loss people because if they did, you wouldn't buy anything from them.

Your body is really really smart. I'm talking genius level here. Not just bright, I mean join Mensa smart. It has to be because most of us are so stupid, we would just die if we had to do what the body does all by itself.

So you know your body is a genius all by itself, right, right.

So what do you think your body does when you reduce calories? Do you think it says, Ok, we have less to eat. That's fine. We will continue burning the same amount of calories as usual. Our bodies are too smart for this.

They know something is up. In fact, when you reduce your calories, alarm bells go off. You can't hear them but they are there. Once your body notices the reduced calories, boom, your metabolism is immediately slowed too.

When you think about it, that is really cool. Our bodies are protecting us from starvation. But what if you are trying to lose weight? It's not so cool is it?

Now then all of the guru's and the companies and the people selling stuff tell you to exercise and you will burn more calories to go along with their low calorie diet. Again, they are leaving out that one tiny little piece of information because if they told you, you wouldn't buy their stuff.

Yes, exercise can burn more calories. But remember, your body is a genius. Do you think if you reduce your calories plus exercise you will really burn more calories. Like mentioned before, your body does not want to starve. When you exercise, the starvation prevention mode really kicks in and your smarty pants body crunches the numbers.

And it will only let you burn the amount of calories you consume. I don't care if you run around the world, if you ate 1000 calories, that is all you are going to burn up. If you are slim already, this is fine because you are able to stay the same.

If you are not slim and need to lose weight, you are screwed if you reduce your calories. Your body just starts burning less.

For some people who start a low calorie diet, they might lose a few pounds in the first few days, could even last a week or two before their body figures it out. They just are not that metabolically sensitive.

For most people, the body figures it out in about 2 days and then matches the amount of calories burned to the amount consumed.

The only way to get lose weight effectively is to confuse your body. And the only way to confuse your body is to calorie shift. This is kind of complicated and it's best just to find a calorie shifting type diet but in a nutshell, you shift around what you eat and when you eat it. Our genius bodies get so confused they actually start burning calories like they never did before.

Low calorie diets will not work. Just look around if you need proof. All those heavy people you see have been on one low calorie diet after another. Do you see any results?
