Even the Weight Loss Experts Say to Drink More Water!
There are a couple of weight loss experts I feature here at Fit Fat Loss. Most recently it was Holly Rigsby of Fit Yummy Mummy, before that it was Jon Benson with The Every Other Day Diet and M-Power (and others).
Guess what? They have paired up.
As excellent as each is individually at teaching you about healthy weigh loss, they’re going to be quite a team! We’re fortunate to have them featured here.
The latest link in the last email from Jon put a smile on my face.
He included a 1-minute fat loss tip to share with you:
…he had no way of knowing I already had you covered with a brief posting titled Lose Weight With Water… back in December, 2009
It is, after all, an old, proven method to help cut the pounds. Plenty of people are just learning about the value of water in a healthy weight loss program however.
But definitely check out his site. I’ve affiliated with him (and Holly) for some very good reasons. Their weight loss values match those I want to share with you here at Fit Fat Loss.
Oh, the Every Other Day Diet (EODD) site has been redesigned so it is something to see too. Check the main presentation: “1 Tip To A Flat Belly!”

Convinced Starving Yourself Is The Wrong Way To Lose Weight?
Here’s the deal. You deserve to lose weight and I want you to discover a diet that will lead you to the body, health, and happiness that you have been looking for.
You deserve to strip any unwanted fat from your body and look and feel the way you have always wanted. The name of this healthy weight loss system is Strip That Fat , because that is exactly what happens when you use it. It instructs you how to lose weight by stripping unwanted fat from your body, regaining the healthy glow back into your life. Less fat will give you more energy, a clearer mind, and actually increase happiness!
Many diets are much too strict, not sustainable, and make your life miserable. Hey, your body requires food to function. Losing weight the wrong way… not making it a Fit Fat Loss… by not eating is actually worse for you than gaining weight. And low fat foods do not equal weight loss either.
Do it wrong and it will affect the way your brain functions and not just slow your metabolism down, but bring it to a grinding halt!
You CAN NOT lose weight and stay healthy by starving yourself of nutrition.
Following pre-packaged Diet Programs can cost you dearly each month to maintain! Does it make sense to spend more than most families spend on groceries in an entire month for one diet plan?
If so much does not work, what does it take to strip unwanted fat from your body?
Well, do YOU eat the wrong foods?
Or do YOU eat during the wrong times of the day?
And perhaps YOU eat empty calories watching your favorite TV Show? How about some easy exercise… do YOU neglect to walk the dog or play with your kids?
Now, diet is most of the battle, and granted, exercise is important too. Yet, most overweight people are prevented from being rewarded with a healthy waistline because of what they “consume”, not because of lack of exercise!
It is simple… unless you have equalized calorie intake and expenditure, the food you eat will either make you lose weight or gain weight.
Conventional wisdom has it that we need breakfast, lunch, and dinner everyday; however, eating 3 big meals per day is not good for our body. 5 meals a day is better for you. (Yes, some say 6 meals is even better)
Eating more often readjusts the metabolism to burn more calories. I‘ve said it before, eating smaller meals and eating the right foods, will result in even more weight loss! Strange as it sounds, but if you understand your body, you can truly manipulate your metabolism for speedy and sustainable weight loss – our bodies are very complex!
All of that and more is what you are taught in Strip That Fat.
Consider the following statements:
- Actually lose more weight simply by eating the right metabolism burning foods
- Learn certain exercises that will make your body burn more calories while you are resting… and even sleeping

It’s all covered… and that just scratches the surface of what this diet offers.

Starve Your Body vs. The Alternative
Part 5 of Starving Yourself to Lose Weight is Dangerous
The final part…
Healthy weight loss… the safe, sensible, and effective solution. A combination of healthy eating habits and some exercise will not only help you shed the pounds, but will keep you fit and allow you to stay at your optimum weight year after year. Weight loss should be a once in a lifetime event, a Fit Fat Loss Event.
Do this:
Eat well, eat little, but eat often. Smaller, more frequent meals help keep your metabolism going throughout the day. It’s an easy lifestyle change. However, if this is totally impractical, just squeeze in a healthy snack between meals to keep your body going.
Don’t skip breakfast. The one period of the day when you can’t keep your metabolism revved up is while you are sleeping. You need breakfast to get your body burning calories again. Then keep the metabolism revved all day.
I feature programs that practice both.
Exercise, of the fat burning type. There are firm believers that “cardio” exercises, such as jogging, swimming, cycling, and low impact aerobics are excellent fat burners. However, I’m not convinced cardio is the best form of exercise when it comes to burning fat.
Build muscle mass. That means doing some weight training, but not heavy weight lifting. We discussed the energy burning ability of muscle, remember? Building up more muscle mass will turn your body into a calorie burning machine by increasing your metabolism. Keep the calorie intake below the calorie expenditure and experience a Fit Fat Loss Event. Even 7 minutes of specific exercise can do it!
The programs I highlight on Fit Fat Loss BURN FAT and they incorporate exercise that produces results.
These programs are not dangerous on your body. However, that said, be sure to check with your physician before starting any exercise program.
You owe it to yourself to look into them.

Starve Your Body, Place It On The Verge Of Breakdown
Part 4 of Starving Yourself to Lose Weight is Dangerous
OK, so we are discussing starving your body by extreme dieting. You’ve convinced your body it is starving. What it does next is try to conserve enough muscle to quite simply stay alive.
Finally, after about a week of starvation, the body will learn to use its stores of FAT as fuel instead of muscle. However, when fat is metabolized, ketones are produced. After a lengthy period of starvation, ketones will build up, and eventually turn toxic, leading to a condition called “Ketosis“.
Too much toxic waste in the liver taxes it, causing vital bodily functions carried out by the liver to slow down or cease. It’s a fact of life. The body is breaking down.
All of this extreme, rapid weight loss greatly stresses the body. There is the lack of vital nutrients that will begin to show in your overall physical appearance. Although I recommend supplements during weight loss, their benefit in a starvation diet would be lost to the risks incurred – this is not the route to follow to lose weight.

Starve Your Body And Gain Weight!
Part 3 of Starving Yourself to Lose Weight is Dangerous
Did you know that trying to promote weight loss by habitually skipping meals has the opposite effect on your overall weight?
The body will think that it is not getting regular nourishment and will begin to store calories, in the form of FAT. It won’t burn calories in the effort to ensure there is enough energy to get past the period of starvation.
All of this is bad news for starvation dieters, and it doesn’t end there either. When you eventually resume your normal eating habits, getting back to “regular” calorie levels, weight gain will occur even faster and will consist of more fat than before. (If you have ever experienced weight rebound, have you noticed the fat seems “different“?) What happened was that your metabolic rate, being much slower than before, stores the excess calories as fat now. The result…? You could very well end up weighing even more than when you started.
Also, the wasted muscle will not miraculously reappear. You will have to exercise even more to build it again. Life is so cruel! The tricks it throws at us!

Starve Your Body For Slower Weight Loss
Part 2 of Starving Yourself to Lose Weight is Dangerous
The liver stores enough glycogen to provide energy for a single day. So if the starvation diet goes past that one day, the body turns to muscle as a back up source of energy. That’s correct, the body will use muscle to produce the glucose it needs as energy. That slowly reduces your overall amount of muscle yet it is the amount of muscle you have, that sets the rate at which calories are burned. The more muscle wasted to create glucose, the slower your body becomes at burning calories. Starve your body of required calories and you will have just lowered your metabolic rate.
Those quick 2 or 3 day diets claiming to burn only fat…? They only burn away metabolically active muscle tissue… Starve yourself for about a week and you WILL lose weight: 30 percent from muscle and the rest from fluid loss. That is not how to lose weight. Burning fat is tricky!
Now, muscle has the ability to burn calories even while the body is resting and inactive – it consumes energy just to maintain its own mass. By reducing the amount of muscle you have, starvation dieting becomes detrimental to the body’s calorie burning efficiency.

Starving Yourself to Lose Weight is Dangerous
I’ve been saying that dieting is stressful on the body and that staying fit while you lose weight is important. Before starting any diet, it is important to be aware of the potential dangers that may come about as a direct result. Case in point is what is known as a starvation diet.
Although it is of short duration, it is very demanding on the body. It has nothing that I would recommend.
Maybe it is because of our obsession with quick fixes that this practice is accepted as a way to lose weight quickly. Before you consider trying to starve yourself thin, read on.
The body needs a certain amount of calories to carry out its most basic of functions. Cut back too much -starve yourself- and you will put your body under undo stress by forcing too great of a demand on its own reserves for energy. If continued for a length of time, your energy will be drained, the immune system compromised, and bodily stress heightened past a reasonable level. That is a price too high to pay for weight loss. Keep it a healthy weight loss, over time. Forget the miracle pill and quick fix weight loss ideas.
The celebrity style starvation diets that claim a 10 pound weight loss in two days are recipes for weight loss rebound. Weight off, then weight back on. You’ve wasted your time. These diets cause weight loss through large fluid loss, not fat loss. Temporary weight loss… all you did was stress your body needlessly.
Because the body needs glucose as the main energy source, these restrictive diets utilize reserves of glucose stored in the liver as glycogen. When the glycogen is broken down into glucose for energy, water is lost, causing a rapid, but false weight loss. The glycogen stores will be replenished along with the water when you return to your normal diet. What happens next is that you will return to your previous weight or higher.
You have to stay hydrated in order to function at a reasonable level! So, don’t go for weight loss based upon losing water.
