If you turn on your TV, or read a news paper, read a magazine or head down to your local grocery store you'll see "low fat" and "fat free" food items nearly everywhere you look. Madison Avenue has spent decades making money for companies by fooling the public in to believing that all you need to do is buy these products and POOF your weight issues will go away.
Wrong
A gram of fat contains 9 calories, while a gram of protein or carbohydrate contains only 4. So if you compare equal quantities of two foods, one containing fat and the other fat-free, the fat-free food will have fewer calories. But it still has calories. Your weight gain or loss is directly related to calories taken in versus calorie burnt off.
For example the average person drinks 57 gallons of soda pop a year.
In a single 12 oz can of coke there are 160 calories and 42 grams of sugar and you guessed it no fat. Zero Nada but did you know if all you did was cut out pop and switch to water or low calorie drinks like Crystal Light you would lose weight. It's true your calorie intake would automatically go down and you would then start to lose weight. Couple it with a proper eating plan and presto you're at your goal weight.

Ten Golden Rules to help your weight loss goals Part One
During my life journey of safe weight loss struggles. I have found a few things along the way that have kept me focused and on track, I call them the golden rules of any diet plan. Staying to a plan is not easy but with a couple of small, SAFE WEIGHT LOSS rules you can help accelerate your weight loss. These are not just rules to lose weight but rules to live by, a complete lifestyle change. Following these rules will help you to get the weight off quickly and safely and keep the weight off for good. Say goodbye to the old you and say hello to the new hot you!
Ten Golden Rules to help your weight loss goals
1. Support of Friends and Family is the most important thing that you can have when starting and continuing any weight loss program. Let the people you care about and that care about you know your weight loss goals. They are more likely to jump on board to help rather than tempt you if they know your weight loss plans. If you have this support you have everything, these are the people that will give you encouragement when you’re feeling defeated
2. Breaking your daily food intake into five to six meals instead of three will be beneficial for your weight loss. Doing this will keep your metabolism high all day long making sure that your body doesn’t feel as though you are starving yourself and store food as fat.
3. Portion size is very important, throw out your scale for weighing food, you have the best tool at your fingertips! Use your fist as a guide, a clenched fist shows you how each portion should be at each of your six meals. A deck of cards also works the same way. This really works trust me.
4. Cold, water based liquids should be consumed with every meal. Ensure you are drinking cold, low calorie drinks, they keep you full, add water to your cells and help you burn calories because your body has to heat the water up to body temperature.
5. Using a calorie shifting method for eating keeps your metabolism on high gear, it helps to make sure that your body never gets used to a routine. It speeds up your fat loss and helps you keep on track by using foods you like in your diet plan.

Diets 4 Idiots
The dismal statistics about diets indicate that 95% of them FAIL because people don’t know how to do lose weight safely. If you’re an idiot like me you will manage to lose a little weight in the beginning of any weight loss diet, most of it little more than your body adjusting its water weight. After a period of time depending on your metabolism your body adjusts and the weight loss stops. Frustrated that the diet no longer works you over indulge on the things your body and mind have been depriving its self of. Here is a great place I found to about fatloss4idiots!
Your body protects itself because it thinks you're starving it. When you resume normal eating habits your body stops burning off the food and stores it. “IN CASE YOU STARVE IT AGAIN” This is stored in the form of fat. Each time you do this your body has a harder time kick starting its metabolism again. You have to find a solution to shift your body into knowing you’re not going to starve it. To let your body know that you will give it the necessary nutrients to keep it going. Read More Here!
Those diets which tell you to stop eating a certain food group like no-carbs or no-protein diets hurt the body because they deprive a necessary building blocks for a healthy lifestyle. They may be very dangerous to your well-being and any weight loss achieved through them is short term. What you need is a diet which lets you eat a reasonable amount of food with a certain supply of all necessary food groups that still helps you to lose weight and keep it off. . fatloss4idiots!
A diet like which is based on Shifting Calories is the best bet as it does not starve you but produces a fast and continuous weight loss. To read more about the calorie shifting method I lost it all!
