If You Want Flat Abs, Stop Dieting and Start Living
By Robert | December 3, 2009
We live in the “want it now” generation. Do you see how we all seem to need everything right now? Fast food is the perfect example. Try driving through a major intersection without seeing multiple fast-food providers lining the roadside, waiting to meet our needs. As if that were not bad enough, we not only want everything fast, we want it bigger. So when you apply this thinking to what you eat, you get fast food and big portions which leads to big butts and fat bellies. I’m not shocked, are you?
This is what comes next. We jump on a “lose weight fast” diet and expect all of our excess fat to just go away.The problem with dieting is that it is usually short term and poorly thought out. People spend years packing on the pounds and expect it to go away in a few short weeks or months with some fad dieting and an expensive gym membership. Does this seem logical? I hope not.
Let me tell you what happens nearly all of the time so you can avoid the dieting disasters. In reality, your body has a memory, or what it sees to be “normal”. Then, you determine that you no longer care for this “normal” state, and decide to make some changes. So, you start dieting, start to exercise, and maybe start lose some pounds. At some point you are very likely to back off some. You think you are where you want to be (or close enough), then the old habits are getting the better of you, and you slip back into your old habits. Your brain says you have reached your goal, but your body is looking to get back to normal. What is normal you ask? Back to where you began before the diet; Fat and flabby! In fact, your body is so responsive that it chooses to throw on a couple of extra pounds or inches just to be on the safe side. This is the “rebound”.
To honest with you, the “rebound” can be avoided very easily. Of course, you must bebin with a thorough plan with practical goals. You have to take on a revised lifestyle or “normal” for your body. Short term dieting won’t work. You have to go long enough to reprogram your body’s memory. This can’t be done with normal dieting or a gym membership. You must know what your body responds to and also realize that you will have good days and bad days, or as I like to say, good days and better days. What do you think is better; 3 steps forward and one step back, over and over, or 10 steps forward (getting exhausted) and 12 steps back and stopping?
Most people think of dieting as a fast solution for a long term mistake. The truth is that it’s a long term problem produced by a quick fix effort, to cover up a lifestyle decision. The solution is truly quite simple and only has to be done once. Please, don’t make your life worse by jumping into a crazy diet plan. You can have flat abs, and a firm butt if you just seek the truth.
