Missing Linkthe Educational Step

H ave you ever felt that it shouldnt be so hard or take so much effort to lose even a little bit of weight? Well, the last thing you need is another diet! If you are simply told what to eat and it doesnt work for you, youll chalk up a loss and go on to the next diet, creating further losses, and then think there is a problem with you, that you have poor willpower (an inability to stick with something).

Working with thousands of individuals has led me to believe that people really do not have a problem with willpowerthey simply have never been taught the right way to lose weight. No one is going to stick with a program thats not working. But if you do the correct thing and you know how to do it , it will work and you will stick with it.

In my clinic, I have found that the missing link is an educational step. Once a person has the background and understanding of HOW fat is burned and HOW health is created, they succeed. But if you simply tell them what to do, youve done nothing for them of any lasting value.

There are so many weight-loss books out there that say, Scientific studies have shown... or Everyone knows... or Experts say... That type of approach is very far from conveying understanding.

This book is different.

I want to help you solve a big problemstubborn weight. To do that, we must first make sure we have identified the correct problem. Many people are attempting to fix the wrong problem: their weight (which is actually the symptom). You also need to know what controls metabolismhormonesbecause you are going to use these hormones to work for you instead of against you. Hormones are chemical messages produced by glands. You have six fat-burning and three fat-making hormones, and each is triggered by different things. Might it not be a good idea to know what these are and how to trigger them?

The New Body Type Guide is not necessarily for people who can lose weight easily; it is for those who have a very stubborn metabolism. The New Body Type Guide gives you the most effective leverage over weight loss because it addresses the very things that control weight lossfat-burning hormones. To my knowledge, no other book in existence gives you an easy-to-understand summary of how to use food and activities to trigger all of your fat-burning hormones. Most people dont even know these exist, let alone how to get them to work.

Fat is not a cushion or insulation, as many people think, but is a store of reserve energy, and Im about to show you how to get your body to tap into and run on this energy. Most people are running their bodies on sugar fuel and rarely use fat fuel, yet right now you already have within your own body everything you need in order to tap into your fat reserves.

You are going to be triggering not just one hormone but all six key hormones to create maximum fat-burning effects. As a result, you not only WILL lose major weight but will get extremely healthy at the same time. The nice thing is that some of these hormones are anti-aging as well.

Different bodies need different solutions. I have found that most people fall into four different types and need different variations of food (especially protein) and exercise. In chapter 4, youll be taking a quiz to find out which body type you have. Once you start the eating plan, youll soon find out what your body responds to best in order to lose the most weight possible in the shortest period of time with the least effort.

What you might not have realized is that your own hormones have been working against you, making you fat and distorting your bodys shape. Instead of giving you the same old same old, Im going to help you find out which hormone or gland is responsible for your body type and guide you to the best program to fix the problem.

You will be eating nutrient-dense foods, which will knock out cravings for sweets, breads, salty snacks and chocolate and keep you satisfied.

Everyone will start with the Basic Eating Plan given in chapter 11. Based on your results, you will then tweak things to fit your primary body type; however, I recommend giving yourself two weeks on the basic plan before tweaking anything.
