Many people are now turning to calorie shifting for rapid weight loss. It’s easy to see why when you analyze the options.

The most popular way to lose weight fast is by taking appetite suppressants and “Fat Burning” supplements, but many of these products have come under scrutiny lately for having adverse effects on the health. This has caused a lot of people to look for more natural methods of losing weight fast.

Another popular rapid weight loss system is based on exercising less than on a conventional diet plan, but doing it in a certain pattern. This is popular with younger, more active people, but doesn’t fit the bill for everyone.

Calorie Shifting fills the gap for those who want rapid weight loss without pills or intensive workouts. Some light exercise is recommended for maximum effect, but it is more in the form of a long brisk walk rather than a trip to the gym.

Calorie shifting is based on eating from different food groups in a certain pattern, which theoretically keeps the metabolism off-balance. This keeps the body from adjusting to lower calorie levels and prevents the “plateaus” that occur with conventional diet plans. It also results in rapid weight loss. Losses of up to 9 pounds in 11 days have been reported.

Though the calorie shifting menus do not provide for a balanced diet per meal, the balance does occur over a period of a few days. However, the system has not been around long enough for studies on the long term health effects to be conclusive.

So if you are in need of a rapid weight loss method consider one of the methods above rather than resorting to chemical suppressants and supplements. Click on the links below to learn more about the calorie shifting method.

Weight Loss – So you want to Lose Weight?

Do you know why? I mean do you have a clear cut statement of how you will benefit from significant weight-loss? Is it weight you need to lose or is it fat? Fat burning requires a different strategy than just weight-loss alone. Also muscle building is yet another approach to fitness. It requires still another approach. That is why I ask you if you know why you want to lose weight.

There are many reasons why it is important to get fit and stay fit. Recent reports tell us that the state with the highest rate of obesity is Mississippi. Next in line is Alabama. I have a friend in Alabama who understands this reality and works steadily to keep ahead of the trend. Sometimes it is not good to be number one on the list. Or number 2. Yet when everyone around is lax about eating and exercise and the heat and humidity are oppressive, it is a difficult path to walk, or run, especially as we age.

I read an article in Scientific American recently about how being physically fit helps you keep your mind mentally alert too. It makes sense. You need good circulation for your brain to work right. Regular exercise is one way to keep that circulation and cardiovascular system running smoothly. Being careful not to overeat also helps. Remarkably it is still true that drinking more water and less soda or carbonated beverages is also beneficial to both your body and your brain.

Ideally if we are in good health and have cared for our bodies and our minds, we can live to old age and be healthy when we get there. We can really stay sharp, it is not a case of winning the gene pool lottery.

Our customary view is that intelligence is primarily genetic. But that is only part of the story. What you choose to eat and drink and do with your mind and body does have multiple affects on your health and mental condition throughout your life.

We may not be capable of avoiding all diminishment in our mental or physical performance over time, but it is astounding what this research is revealing about how much power we have to maintain our own wellness and mental health with physical activity. Thinking and keeping physically active go hand in hand. Each one affects the other.

So, I ask you again, do you know why you want to lose weight? I know why I do. I want to be healthy and mentally alert through all of my life. So I turned to a calorie shifting diet plan to help me get on top of the need to get rid of excess belly fat. It is working well. I am losing about 9 pounds every 11 days. Take a look at the program I am following at my calorie shifting site. Be fit, mentally and physically as long as you are able. You will appreciate it and your family will too!

Build Muscle – Burn Fat – Weight-Loss with Logic

calorieh — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 16:53:05 +0000

Now tell me, does your body make you feel unhappy? Do you wish you were the handsome dude with ripped abs and bulging biceps? Or the beautiful woman with all the curves in just the right proportion and place? And you now need to lose weight and learn about shifting calories. Bummer.

Some people experience a loss of confidence when they start to feel flabby and soft or look fat or plump. I hate it when someone calls me “chubby”. Those days are gone now. Do you feel a loss of respect? Or a loss of self-esteem?

We all know that our physical condition has an effect on how we see ourselves. So how do you get past the present flabby state into the real attractive and confident person you know you are? Well. First you need some specific information. You now the saying: Knowledge is Power. That was the motto on my high school ring and woe to those who could not defend that statement in a debate

But it is funny how we leave behind that kind of thinking once we are past those school days. We just move forward with our lives and sometimes overlook the need for new knowledge in different situations. However, no one was teaching the specifics of how calories and nutrition worked when you were in school. Right? So step up to the plate and learn about calorie shifting as part of your build muscle and burn fat plan.

Let me tell you, the ‘getting back in shape’ phase of your life is going to need some new knowledge if you think you can burn fat and build muscle overnight. It is not going to happen. It is also not going to happen simultaneously. That is just plain biology!

First realize that you can build muscle with an abundant intake of calories in the proper proportions accompanied by appropriate exercise. Second, recognize that burning fat requires equal attention and respect. Both processes require motivation and commitment. Both processes need careful attention to the details.

So either get connected with a personal trainer to guide you through the process or get really well educated on the processes of muscle building and fat burning. If you try to be a ‘hero’ and go it alone, you are almost destined for disappointment and dissatisfaction.

Trust me, if you move forward with leadership and knowledge and information and bring along your own motivation and commitment, your personal health and fitness goals will be met sooner than if you do this haphazardly. The improvements in your appearance and self-confidence will make that entire business of calorie shifting feel worthwhile.

Calorie Shifting – How To Burn Fat and Build Muscle With Calorie Shifting

What is the story here? You have decided to build muscles and burn fat. That is great. But do you know that most people who start out are disappointed with their results?

Yes, it is true. The despairing flabby folks give up when it is not going well and they become disillusioned. Why?

For one thing we are an ignorant and impatient people. This is especially true for Americans. These character traits have helped to build our nation. However, they will not help you when it comes to your personal health and body care matters. You need to get better informed before you leap to the presumed land of simple ‘fat burn-muscle build’. I can help you get started and help you burn fat and build muscle and apply the calorie shifting diet plan to your advantage.

First of all, it is not possible to do both at the same time. Burn Fat is one process. Build New Muscle is another. They are not compatible. Here is why. Your body needs to be deficient in calories to burn fat. Your body must be in a calorie surplus status in order to build muscle. Yes, it is possible to firm and strengthen the muscles that you have while you are losing weight and that is good, but you cannot enlarge them.

When you are ready to build muscles, give serious consideration to working with a personal trainer. Or get a really authoritative book on the subject. It is clear you will need to eat a lot calories but it won’t work if you just try to eat all you can. For muscle building to happen, you must consume the correct foods with the proper nutrients in the proper ratios. That is a part of what calorie shifting is about, too.

For instance, when Michael Phelps was training for Olympic swimming events, he ate about 12,000 calories every day. That is about 6 times the calorie intake for the average person. True, he was burning as many calories as he was consuming but in the process he was building stronger and bigger muscles.

Once you have build up your desired muscle mass that is when you need to go on a calorie deficient diet to burn off excess body fat. There are two approaches to this and it makes a difference how fast you need to gain muscle mass, which way you choose.
One is to use a combination of resistance and cardiovascular exercises to avoid gaining fat while you are building muscle. Or build muscle faster by gaining fat along with it and then burn off the fat later. You really need to think carefully about this because it takes a lot of discipline to burn off the fat later. You might find it hard to stay motivated to burn fat once you have attained your desired muscle structure.

Once you get started on your muscle building and fat burning plan you will begin to see the value in some other alternatives to conventional diets. The entire concept of calorie shifting will take on new meaning because you will have learned a lot about how foods are metabolized within your body.
