chapter one Lose Weight – And Still Have a Life! (#ulink_91d6e5b8-12e3-50af-8d71-dd9007b92b2c)
Most people know to lose weight we have to eat less, but somehow something always seems to get in the way – LIFE! Ask yourself the following questions:
Do you experience frustration at seeing your weight go up and down on the scales?
Are you a seasoned dieter who tries every diet available and yet you still don’t seem able to shift those extra pounds?
Do your diet attempts leave you a diet hermit rather than living life to the full?
Do you want a diet and fitness plan that fits in with your lifestyle – while still achieving your weight and fat-loss goals?
If you have answered yes to any of the above questions then Carb Curfew is for you. The Carb Curfew diet plan shows you the strategies you need to take to lose weight and body fat – and keep it off for good.
Losing weight and body fat is a subject that provokes an array of discussions and fad slimming products and diets. Unfortunately, while some people may claim spectacular results with tablets, potions and ‘miracle’ foods, the real truth is that long-term weight management requires a little effort and know-how to be able to make it work for you not just for today, but for the future too.
The key to successful weight and body fat loss is simple – it is about good nutrition and how you move your body. The challenge comes when we try to fit a healthy diet into our busy lives – maybe you’re running around after your kids all day, or working long hours, or simply leading a jam-packed social life and it feels as though you don’t even have time to think about eating well – let alone do it! This is where Carb Curfew steps in. Carb Curfew is adaptable enough to fit in with your life – just the way it is. It allows you to set your own realistic goals, so you don’t have to make any radical changes to your lifestyle while you achieve your weight and fat-loss goals.
How Does Carb Curfew Work?
Carb Curfew contains a number of strategies to help you achieve your weight and body fat goals. These nutritional strategies have been tried and tested by my weight-management clients over the last ten years – they have worked for them and they will work for you. The strategies are:
Use the Carb Curfew
By not eating certain carbohydrates after five p.m. you will lose weight and boost your energy levels. It is a strategy that allows you to cut your overall calorie intake and get the right balance of nutrients at the right time of the day. By eating starch with more protein at lunchtime instead of in your evening meal, you will beat your mid-afternoon sugar cravings (the dieter’s downfall!) and fuel yourself with energy and brainpower for the rest of the day.
Drink More Water
If you drink less than eight glasses of water a day you may well be chronically dehydrated – this means you will lack energy and your brain will misinterpret this tiredness as a need to eat more food. So by drinking a minimum of two litres of water a day you will fuel yourself with energy, curb your hunger and enhance your nutrient absorption. Stick to the action points in chapter four and you’ll be well on the way to a super-hydrated and less hungry body!
Decrease Your Fat Intake
This is not about cutting all fat from your diet – some fat is essential for our health – instead it is about reducing your overall fat intake whilst at the same time increasing the good sources of fat in your diet. By eating 40 grams of the right fats a day you will soon see your own body fat decrease.
Be Consistent
The good news is the best way to lose weight is not to deprive yourself of everything you love, but instead to stick to the 80–20 rule. This means rather than being good 100 per cent of the time, if you can stick to the Carb Curfew diet plan for just 80 per cent of the time you will succeed. Being consistent means you can actually eat a little more and you will still lose weight and body fat and you are not setting yourself up for guilt and ‘failure’.
You will also find plenty of recipes in Carb Curfew to help you put the Carb Curfew into practice, as well as lots of suggestions for breakfasts and lunches, and a 14-day eating plan. Everything in this book has been tested by real people with real pressures and their own stories and tips will help you be in control against unwanted excess weight and body fat.
The Key to Long-Term Success
Have you ever beaten yourself up for breaking your new diet that promises to shrink you into your favourite jeans within seven days? Or felt you’d blown your long-term healthy eating plan just because you indulged in a naughty dessert? If you can relate to either of these scenarios then Carb Curfew is definitely for you. It shows you that the key to long-term successful weight management is not to deprive yourself of everything you love or to beat yourself up when you fail – it is about developing and appreciating a balanced and consistent approach to eating, where you only have to be ‘good’ 80 per cent of the time and you will succeed.
In short, Carb Curfew is about helping you develop strategies that allow you to enjoy the things you want to enjoy, whilst you realize your weight and body fat goals. By following the simple strategies in Carb Curfew, you will have the confidence and know-how to say goodbye to excess weight and body fat – for good.
