This cookbook has never been offered before, and that's
why it's on sale. It's pennies per recipe, and you'll lose fat
while loving your food.
Second, I have a diet book review for you.
On Monday, in a span of about 2 hours, while riding in a
taxi cab across town and then waiting in my chiropractor's
office, I read "Why We Get Fat".
It's a very good book, and I agree with most of the content.
Two things I didn't agree with:
A) I think the author goes overboard with his recommendations
on avoiding fruit (all the science I've read has found that
eating more fruit leads to weight loss, not weight gain).
B) The author lays the blame heavily on genetics, BUT I've
watched too many folks from all types of backgrounds lose
ridiculous amounts of fat to believe that genetics is as big
of a problem as the author believes. Genetics are a factor
in where you store fat, sure, but you CAN beat bad genes.
On the bright side, I agree with the major rules he sets out
for fat loss.
So let's take a look at the top 5 #1 rules for your fat loss diet:
#1 Rule #1 - Avoid all liquid calories.
Stop drinking soda, juice, high-calorie coffees, high-sugar
post-workout drinks marketed to you as mandatory for results
(they aren't), sports drinks, and energy drinks.
When you drink calories, your body says, "Oh, yummy! But I'm
still not full in my tummy. Must have more foodz too! Yayz!"
And then you overeat calories, adding to the excess calories
and sugar from your liquids, and then your belly fat piles
on and gets stuck to you like peanut butter on Bally's nose
when he licks an empty jar of peanut butter clean.
#1 Rule #2 - Avoid eating added sugar and white flour. This
why it's on sale. It's pennies per recipe, and you'll lose fat
while loving your food.

#1 Rule #2 - Avoid eating added sugar and white flour. This
will help you lose fat and avoid cancer.
The author of "Why We Get Fat" believes that the #1 reason
ANY diet works is because they help users avoid fattening
carbohydrates (such as sugar, candy, liquid calories, and
processed carbohydrates).
No matter what "extreme diet" you are into, I think that's
pretty easy to agree with.
And that's why I also believe that almost EVERY diet out
there will work for someone, and that's why you must continue
to look for the diet that works for YOU.
Listen, I've read both ends of the spectrum.
I've read "The China Study" and I've read about "Paleo Diets",
and I don't believe you have to go to either extreme.
You don't need to give up all meat, and you don't need to
give up all grains.
The commonality that both of these "diet factions" can
agree on is that excess sugar, processed carbs, and liquid
calories are a BAD, BAD, BAD idea.
It's that simple.
Avoid added sugar, processed carbs, and liquid calories and
that way you'll keep your insulin levels lower and that will
help fight fat storage and will promote fat burning.
Soooooo simple. It really is. Still not convinced? Next rule:
#1 Rule #3 - Avoid eating carbohydrate rich foods that are
easy to eat in massive quantities.
The author recommends avoiding the following foods if you
want to lose fat, and while it is very restrictive, I tend
to agree because it is really easy to over-consume these:
- beer
- liquid calories
- sugar
- candy
These are easy to agree with...not a lot of room for these
in a fat loss program.
And the following foods are more controversial (but again,
are the recommendation of the author):
- bread
- potatoes
- rice
- cereal grains
- dairy
NOTE: Yes, you can get lean and stay lean with these in
your diet. In fact, I eat a few of these foods on a weekly basis,
but I know they are really easy to overeat...so that's why I
stick to the next rule:
#1 Rule #4 - Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.
Now this rule was only quoted in this book, but it comes
from my favorite nutrition book, "Food Rules". So simple.
So powerful.
You don't have to give up your favorite foods forever, you
just need to stop making them a part of EVERY meal. Which
brings me to my last point:
#1 Rule #5 - If you have it in the house, you're going to
eat it, so keep it out of your house. Period.

eat it, so keep it out of your house. Period.
As I've said in the past, your kitchen doesn't need to resemble a 7-11.
If your kids need treats, that's fine. Have a SMALL bag of
treats in the house.
I grew up in a house that had 5-10 cases of soda in the
basement, plus 4-5 bags of chips (crisps for our UK friends),
3 boxes of ice cream in the freezer, and bags of candy all
over the place.
That won't help anyone lose fat.
I was able to stay lean, but it would be a lot easier if those
foods weren't there when I go home to visit my family.
On the other hand, here's something that will help you lose
fat if you have it in the house:

The great thing about that cookbook is that it doesn't require you
to make any extreme sacrifices. It's common sense, and simple.
(Can you tell I like to keep it simple?)
Bottom Line:
Avoid the foods that cause us to get fat (liquid calories,
sugar, processed carbohydrates) and eat real food - and
delicious meals - that are prepared properly.
Diet beats exercise almost every time,
