Hey there how are yah?
Sorry I haven’t written to you in a while. I’ve recently just returned from my summer vacation in Spain, during which time I spent relaxing with friends and family recharging my batteries with new surroundings.
Trust me, there’s nothing better than sitting on the beautiful southern beaches of Spain with a cool sea breeze, watching the world go by without a care in the world! And now I’m raring to go again with new ideas and inspiration for you!
When I got back only last week, upon returning to my PC, I discovered that I had just over 300 downloads for my fat loss report, which I’m really pleased about.
I was only on holiday for 2 weeks!!! ;-)
This is indicating that not only is my fat loss message FINALLY starting to get out there across the internet, but more importantly, people are finally staring to take their health seriously. From what started off as a diet that I’d give to just my clients, has now grown to over 9,000 online users from all across the world.
Not bad huh?
However, although extremely popular, during those 2 weeks I also had many questions regarding the 60 day diet aspect of the report that have been puzzling some readers.
So I’ve decided to share with you some of the questions that have been dropping into my inbox over the last few weeks.
Hopefully, the answers I give will help you-whatever stage of the diet you’re at, whether you’re half way through the 60 days, coming to an end or are just about to start it
(shame on you!!!) ;-)
Anyway, enough build up, you ready?
Why do I have to give up all these foods whilst I’m on your diet?
The diet is quite simply a detox. Its primary focus is that of health (although a side effect from it is that you WILL lose body fat).
Let me tell you what I mean:
The food we eat these days is unfortunately heavily processed to that of food 30/40 years ago. When I say processed, I mean the food has been tampered with before it gets to you, and can be done in various ways.
Lets take fruit and vegetables grown on a commercial farm for example. These have been sprayed with fungicides, herbicides, pesticides and rhotendercides to, shall I go on?
When you eat this kind of produce, these toxins will enter your system. This is the same with commercially raised animals. They are stuffed full of steroids to bulk them up quicker for market day and again, the toxins from this process will enter your system.
Lastly, anything that’s been tinned, canned or packaged has been tampered with to preserve its lifespan. Anything with additives, preservatives or emulsifiers are ingredients food manufacturers use to preserve the products lifespan and in short, your body won’t recognise them and store them as toxins.
Still with me?
OK ;-)
Now, when your body becomes overwhelmed by these toxins from your diet, it will
‘Dump’, any toxic substances into your adipose tissue stores (fat) in order to reduce their circulation throughout the body.
This is the main reason why people are overweight. They think they’ve tried everything when it comes to losing body fat and can’t seem to understand why they aren’t shifting it anymore or have plateaued in their results.
The fat is effectively trapped in their cells by the toxins!
Not good huh!
So that’s why I want you to eat clean and organically for the full 60 days your on this diet. Not only will this expel all the toxins that have built up in your fat cells, meaning you’ll accelerate floss but you’ll also see a improvement in your skin, your hair, your teeth, mental clarity, fingernails and an overall improvement in your energy and well being.
You see, when there are no longer toxins entering the body those toxins will be expelled along with the fat (and excess water) that’s storing them meaning you’ll start to look more toned, more shaped and more defined.
This isn’t rocket science, If you achieve deal health, and you eat the way Mother Nature intended you to eat then you’ll achieve your ideal bodyweight. There’s no if’s or but’s on this one. One rule I’m always telling my clients is that if it wasn’t around 100 years ago, then don’t eat it!
Can I have bread?
Yes, you can have wheat free bread e.g. Rye or millet.
Why am I allowed butter and live yoghurt but not milk?
Butter and live yoghurt with no additives hasn’t been processed as much as cow’s milk. Also, yoghurt contains helpful ‘friendly’ bacteria that aid digestion. Remember, cows milk has been pasteurised before it reaches you. Try oat, rice or nut milk if you REALLY want to drink milk over the 60 days.
These headaches are killing me? Is there anything else I can do to stop them?
Try not to worry; this is a good sign that’s telling you that the toxins are leaving your body! Drink plenty of fresh water to flush out the toxins and try having some hot baths. This will help to sweat out the toxins quicker.
Can I have rice? If so which kind?
Yes you can have rice, provided its brown or wild rice. Rice grain is less of a problem than rice noodles, which are made from a kind of rice flour and turn to sugar far far quicker. So white or noodle rice is off limits.
What happens after the 60 days? Can I go back to eating the banned foods?
Slowly add your banned foods back into your diet one at a time to see the effect they have on you. Really tune into how you feel during this time. Pay attention carefully to what’s going on with your body e.g. gas, stomach bloating, and flatulence. If you experience any of these side effects, then it could be safe to say that you may have a problem with that food and should ideally be avoided or cut down on.
Use your food diary during this period. This is a great way of identifying any food allergy or intolerances that you may have.
I hope these replies are helpful and have given you a little more insight into the 60-day diet. Good luck with it, I know you can do it and and I’ll be contact with you very soon.
Here’s to a new you!
SAM ;-)
