Breakthrough "Balanced Meal" Secret Destroys Fat
I'd
always had my definition of a "balanced meal".
I was
soon to find out just how WRONG I was!
Sitting there
I couldn't believe what I was reading.
I'd been
trying to get rid of excess body fat for years by following the same
old eating healthy advice. What I was reading in the corner
chair of that warm, quit bookstore was a contradiction. And
not once had I ever read anything like it.
Could
this be what I was missing? The secret that would finally
make the handfuls of fat hanging off my stomach evaporate?
I
read further...
Glycemic index is a measure of how
much a food raises blood sugar. Super important.
Why? Because the rate at which your blood sugar raises after
you eat a meal determines the amount of fat you store.
This
was all new and I was hungry for more.
Reading on I
discovered the difference between eating a "balanced meal" and just
eating healthy food.
You see, if I had a plate of
organic red potatoes with corn I would definitely have a meal
consisting of healthy food. But balanced it would NOT be.
Here's
why...
More important than the food itself is how
you combine that food. For example... if you eat only the
potatoes and corn, the glycemic index of that meal is higher then if
you eat that potato and corn with proteins and fats. In other
words... much more of that meal will be stored as fat than if you
combined it with chicken and a dab of olive oil.
As
I said, I was shocked that I had never heard this before.
Virtually
none of the diets had taught it. They simply preached
counting calories and going hungry. And studies show that
over 90% of diets fail. They will even make you far
fatter! There on that corner chair I was beginning to learn
why.
Heck, at one point I was even border line
vegetarian because I read somewhere that it was the healthiest way to
eat. Look. I have absolutely nothing against being
a vegetarian... all I know is that those were the most miserable months
of my life.
Compared to learning how to balance my
meals... everything else I'd been told about eating healthy was bottom
of the barrel. Second rate.
Anyway.
That
day in the quiet corner of that bookstore was a real eye
opener. I discovered that a true fat shredding meal was
carbs, proteins and fats all on the same plate.
Up
till that point I had been carrying around so much excess stomach fat
it was embarrassing. It didn't last much longer.
Look.
I'm not telling you that learning how to eat a true balanced meal is
the only thing you need to do to lose weight. There are many
other skills that will ensure you lose it super fast. But
learning how to balance my meals was the missing key that quickly took
me from self-conscious to zero fat.
