Quackery

There are a lot of quacks out there. Quacks that want your money and will say anything to get it.

No where is this more rampant than in the "diet" industry. Let me tell you a couple facts. Anyone who claims you can lose a pound of fat a day (30 pounds in 30 days claims.) Is at the best very ill-informed, or at the worst, flat-out lying.

Sure they may lose weight, but it's not all fat. In fact most of it is water and proteins, and other junk floating around in our systems that starts to get broken up when we take care of ourselves.

The human body is only capable of metabolizes 3.3 pounds of stored fat in 7 days. And that's really hard to do. Most people who are really trying with burn somewhere between 1-2 pounds of fat in 7 days.

This is important to understand. There are no super quick ways to melt fat off your body. You can do it, but it takes time. Small steps everyone, small steps. Time is going to go by anyway, so why not use it?

Ignore all the marketing nonsense. Develop a sound eating plan, exercise everyday and the weight will come off. It's science.

Train smart,
