Here we go again another day of counting calories right?  Wrong!  There is a scientific formula that has to do with your age and activity level that is used to determine how many calories you should eat per day.  I personally think calorie counting is unnecessary since no two people are exactly alike physically and when it comes to eating. Have you ever heard a saying like, "my friend can eat a piece of cake and not gain one pound, but if I eat one I'll gain 10 pounds". 

There are many factors that are involved, when one is prone to gaining weight in the form of fat.  For example, genetics hormones, metabolism, body composition, and of course eating habits.  It is not how many calories you eat, it is where the calories come from that matters.  Every time you eat, you must not fill yourself up. Leave the table when you are just satisfied, but not completely full.  You must eat only enough food so that you are hungry again in two to three hours, and the food must be low in fat, so you can accomplish this.  Remember this, high fat foods will keep you full longer. Some people cannot determine when they are reaching the full point and continue eating until it is too late and they are already full.  This is where the common sense comes in.  The key is to eat only small portion sizes. For example, a serving of vegetables should be about the size of your fist in a serving of chicken breast should be about the size of your palm.  If a serving like this does not satisfy you, that's okay, eat again in about two hours repeating the process with a variety of foods.  Eat five to six meals throughout the day. From my experience it is those who are extremely overweight who are unable to detect when to stop eating before they are full.  However, eventually, the body will adapt to this lifestyle of eating an eventually shed unwanted weight so fast you will not believe your eyes.

As I mentioned earlier, it is what you eat that is more important than counting calories.  All my weight loss programs are tailored to fit your lifestyle and I will teach you how to read nutrition labels so you can distinguish the good foods from one's that may hinder your weight loss progress.  If you happen to eat what might be referred to as a weight loss hindering food, eat small portion sizes on occasion.  If your body craves it and you can't resist, eat it.  Just don't over do it.

So many people try to lose weight on their own and unfortunately suffer the consequences by negatively altering their metabolism, thyroid, and hormonal function. When this occurs weight loss becomes impossible and no diets will work. Let Johnnie help YOU today!
