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.
