WHA T IS THE F AST LOW-CARB KICKST AR T PLAN? Ther e is no doubting the incr edible health benets of intermittent fasting. As y oull discover in this book, limiting the window in which we eat has a pro found effect on our bodies inside and out. Equally , following a low -carb or ke to diet can very quickly and effective ly pro duce results that benet our o verall health and wellbeing. When you combine intermittent fasting with a lo w-carb diet, the results ar e exceptional. This should come as no surprise because the benets of both con sistentl y overlap , so it is something of a no-brainer that one supports the other . Put simply , The Fa st Low-Carb Kick start Plan is a lifestyle pr ogram provi ding you with all the tools, tips and techniques plus delicious r ecipes and motivation necessar y to mak e incr edible long-term change when it comes to y our health and ha ppiness. Ill educate you on the k ey f actors and science behind intermittent fasting and how to follow a low er -c arbohy drate appro ach, and then pro vide you with meal plans that accompany a f our -w eek kickstart, helping you to implement this kno wledge into practical, every day use. ITS ABOUT THE MEALS , MINDSET AND MOVES Now, although I talk predominatel y in this book about what and when to eat, for any health transformation to be successful we need to adopt a holistic appr oach to nding synergy between our Meals, Mindset and Move s. What does that mean? We ll, rst and fore most it means celebrating nutrient-dense re al f ood and ditching f oods that can cause us harm or inammation. T erms lik e dir ty k eto or if it ts your macros suggest that, as long as the macro nutrient content of a fo od matches up to your dail y requir ements, you can eat whate ver y ou want including junk f ood. T his couldn t be fur ther fr om the truth. W e need to sour ce our macr o and micr on utrients from high -quality sourc es that pro vide our cells with energy in ord er to make every meal count, as the y ar e an in v estment in our long-term health. It also means that it is all well and g ood follow ing this kickstart pro gram as written, but to implement it successfully yo u need to align it with positive mindset techniques that will support yo u mentally on the journey . T his means making sure that little v oice inside your head backs you and speaks positiv ely abo ut what you re doing. It s about being your biggest cheerleader and not y our w orst critic at a time when y ou ma y experience ups and downs, both mentally and ph ysi cally . Lastly , it means that we can eat all the health y f ood in the wo rld and work on cultivating a positive mindset, but unless we use the gift of our body w e simply won t r each our full potential. So, nd a way to move each and ev ery day that you actuall y look forwar d to.
