Like long distance relationships, crash diets never work and in this video I explain WHY, check it out:
Heres a great summary of the video:
A common question I get is “I have a “insert important event like a wedding” coming up and I need to lose weight fast, what do I do?”
I’ll tell them to eat a smart meal plan, work out intensely and be consistent and results will follow. However most people ignore that and just decide to crash diet anyways.
And this is the problem. Crash Diets DON’T Work. But Why Don’t They?
I mean if losing weight is all about eating fewer calories than you burn, why not just eat next to nothing?
In other words, if its calorie in vs calorie out, why not eat next to nothing?
Shouldn’t you lose a crazy amount of weight if you eat less than an anorexic supermodel?
The answer is you won’t young grasshopper and heres why.
Your body needs a certain amount of calories to function on a day to day basis. Lets say 1500 calories. As soon as you eat less than that, your body enters starvation mode. Starvation mode is when your body panics, spazzes out and starts storing all calories you eat. Fat loss shuts down, and so does anything that doesn’t involve keeping you alive, including your mojo (YUCK).
To get its needed calories, your body can either breakdown muscle or fat. Of the two, your body would love to breakdown your muscles. They cost your body a lot of energy, where as fat is lazy and doesn`t do anything, it just hangs there. But now your body desperately needs the energy, so OUT goes the muscle.
With less muscle, your body burns fewer and fewer calories and you’ll not lose anymore weight. And now since you aren’t eating enough, you won’t have the energy to work out, your metabolism will be screwed with less muscle, you’ll be bitchy, and you won’t be losing weight.
NOW That SUCKS.
Crash Diets…
1. Break down muscle
2. Halt fat loss
3. Zap your energy
4. Slow down your metabolism
5. Turn you into a sallow vampire from Twilight- seriously.
The solution, like my favourite childrens tale, of the tortoise and the hare is to be slow and steady to the win the race. It might not be the sexy answer, but it will get you sexy. And thats a special thing. And for those wise that say they’ve lose weight crash dieting, its water and muscle weight, not fat dumbass. Yeah asshole, I’m on to you.

In this video I discuss the latest weight loss fad called cleansing or detox diet. The popularity of these diets in the media may lead people into thinking that anyone can safely do this, however, these flush type restrictive diets are not for everyone, and can be harmful to some. I share with you my thoughts on why. Please remember to subscribe because I have so much more to come; something helpful and of interest to everyone. Thanks so much for viewing!
