I bet you love a good old takeaway at weekend or some shit food, right?
You find 'dieting' or eating healthy so god damn hard? You feel like your depriving yourself, missing out? can't be social?..Well I'm here to tell you, you can eat that shit and it's actually good for you!
Hold on before you dash off to the fridge for chocolate let me explain...
Everybody has a fat burning hormone called leptin in your body, this is your main trigger point for fat loss.
High leptin levels = More fat burn/higher metabolism
It works like this, when you have just started your weight loss kick your leptin levels will be high due to the amount of fat that's in your body being used as energy to substitute for the food your bodies usually use to. As you continue, your leptin levels start to be become less effective.
Ever noticed you drop more weight at the beginning of a diet and it gradually slows down over the weeks?
So how can use fast food to lose weight?
When your losing weight it always slows down but by consistently spiking insulin levels on a weekly basis it one keeps your body on it's toes and two makes leptin work it's arse off to burn fat.
To keep leptin levels in the optimum fat burning zone, pick ONE day per week and treat yourself to whatever meal you want..and I mean ANYTHING.
The rules are simple;
- Half an hour beforehand drink one pint of water
- Give yourself a 45 minute window to eat your cheat
- Take one omega3 fish oil immediately after to keep fat burning on
The next day expect to feel like shit, we call this a carb hangover! This time it's very easy to stray away from you plan. The CHEAT is all about mindset - your not eating it to make you feel good or normal it's purely scientific. Raising leptin to continue fat loss.
Don't feel guilty or feel that your undoing all your hard work, obviously don't go OTT with 4 big mac, 3 pizzas and a bucket of ice cream but have a takeaway, go out to your favourite restaurant..this will make loosing weight easier & faster.
