I have been away from my home this week. Specifically, I have been in Dallas, TX for some business meetings and a lot of people asked me what were my eating patterns while away from home.
Thought I would share with you how I eat while on vacation in general. At least in most occasions. It’s actually a very standard process for the last 2 years.
It’s 8am, you just woke up and looking forward to going up on the scale. You realize that you didn’t hit your target weight for the week.
“OMG, What am I gonna do?”
You have hit a weight loss plateau.
Panic enters your brain and your heart beats too fast because you have become angry and a little stressed. You are in a dead end, you know that you’ve got to do something but you don’t know what that is.
Books are boring, they are used for decorating a library in the living room, or as a door stopper. Also, my personal favorite, to lift the screen of your computer. So what is about books why people keep publishing them.
Well, it’s because books are the most complete, dense and worthy source of information. Articles can be written by anyone. But writing a book takes courage and time, which very few are willing to sacrifice for the education of others. (Like we do @ Dutrition).
When was the last time you tried to lose some weight? Went on a diet for a couple of weeks, the scale didn’t move much and you just returned to your old habits?
Sticking to a diet is a bitch. No more than 20%[1] are actually losing the weight and keeping it off.
But that 80% didn’t have my advice. You will not be in the 80%, you will be one of the few that have the knowledge to keep being on a diet for as long as they want.
One of the hottest topics around dieting is breakfast. I see so many people struggle with their diet and yet they make all these awful choices of foods that really don’t help them attain their goal. Believe it or not, there are actually people thinking that breakfast is a mandatory meal of the day (God forbid if you want to skip it) and the most healthy choice would be a toast with cheese and turkey, and a glass of orange juice (that’s for getting every vitamin you need, when you only get a small amount of Vitamin C).
Yet day in day out, the scale doesn’t move, the energy levels drop, and everyone goes around wondering what was that they did wrong.
It is a very popular and highly controversial way of dieting at the same time. Intermittent Fasting or IF, is a diet protocol that promises fat loss and muscle hypertrophy with the fastest results.
Reality or fantasy?
Too much stuff have been written about it and nowadays almost everyone in the fitness industry is advocating intermittent fasting.
So without further ado, let’s see what’s true and what’s not, and how YOU could benefit from intermittent fasting.
