Best weight loss diet program

By Gregory McGuire

First of all, this is not a lose weight quick program. You don't need a ton of weight loss supplements for this to work. In fact, you can do this every evening while watching your favorite TV shows, and still lose 80 pounds in a year!

This weight loss system is so simple that I'm convinced if you don't do this, then you really don't want to lose weight. Using this weight loss program, you're giving up next to nothing. If this is not the best weight loss diet you've ever seen, I'll be very surprised.

This is not a collection of quick weight loss tips, or me telling you how much fun fasting to lose weight is.

I'm not taking credit for inventing this system. I first learned of it from Craig Harper, a really smart guy over at Lifehack.org. Its beauty really is in its simplicity. There are no herbal weight loss pills you need to take, and nothing you need to buy.

First of all, think about calories, and consider your bodyweight. Multiply your bodyweight times ten, and that's how many calories you need to consume every day to maintain your present bodyweight.

Now, subtract 20 percent from that number. This is your new daily caloric intake. So, if your bodyweight is 200, instead of consuming 2000 calories a day, you'll now consume only 1800. Not a big jump. In fact, it's very doable for most people.

You want to eat half of those calories for breakfast. That's 900 calories! Your mid-morning meal would consist of 300 calories, and then 3 more meals of 200 calories each.

Doesn't this beat the heck out of fasting for weight loss? And it completely eliminates that hungry feeling you get from most commercial weight loss systems.

Now let's look at what you're doing.

Research has shown that a big breakfast aids in fat-burning. Since you're eating every 3 hours or so, you're never getting hungry, so that deprived feeling that most of us feel from dieting is not there. And now for the exercise part of our program.

Watch 3 hours of TV every night. I mean it. But, have a stepper close by. You know, the kind they use in step aerobics. When a commercial comes on, mute the TV, get on the stepper and step like crazy for a full 3 minutes, or until your show comes back on.

Here are the numbers: For every hour of TV, about 15 minutes of commercials are shown. This means you are working out 45 minutes every evening, without missing your favorite shows.

On average, a 200 pound person stepping on a 12-inch box for 45 minutes will burn just over 700 calories a day! Combine that with your now lowered caloric intake and you're losing over 80 pounds in a year.

I ask you again: Is this not the best weight loss system you've ever seen? It's cheap, relatively easy, and it's extremely doable.
