LLVLC On youtube: Are Calories Really That Important On A Low-Carb Diet? (Episode 71)

March 22nd, 2010 by libertees


livinlavidalowcarb.com blogger Jimmy Moore and his wife Christine decided to address the issue of calories and their importance on the healthy low-carb lifestyle in the latest installment of their popular “Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb on youtube” series. In Episode 71, Jimmy and Christine talk about whether it is the quantity of calories or the quality of the calories you consume that matters most when you are eating low-carb (or any nutritional approach designed for weight loss for that matter). Although fat has more than twice as many calories per gram as carbohydrate or protein, the nutrient-density of that fat calories will keep your appetite suppressed and hunger under control much more efficiently than consuming large amounts of carbs which actually stimulate insulin leading to hunger pangs shortly after eating them. Jimmy cites a fantastic book written by low-carb physician Dr. James E. Carlson called “GENOCIDE: How Your Doctor’s Dietary Ignorance Will Kill You!” that you really ought to pick up a copy of for your personal healthy library: www.amazon.com In Chapter 6 of his book, Dr. Carlson explains why the idea of “burning” calories is mistaken and that in the grand scheme of nutrition the calorie is completely irrelevant. One patient was eating 2000 calories a day and exercising, but could not lose weight. Dr. Carlson switched him to a high-fat, moderate-protein, low-carb nutritional approach consuming upwards of 6000-8000 calories daily without changing his exercise …

Burn Calories and Lose Weight Fast – Tips to Burn Calories and Lose Weight Fast?

January 24th, 2010 by libertees

If you are like me, you may be desperate to regain your lost self confidence back by losing unwelcome fat from your body. You may be fed up of not being able to lose even an ounce of excess weight, no matter what you have been doing up to now.

You are eagerly waiting the day when you could walk up to your loved ones with a lean body, oozing with confidence and self esteem. But you may be lost and not knowing what to do in order to achieve your weight loss goal.

Even though Weight loss is not easy, it is not impossible, if you stick to a plan and continue with it until you see some change. We, human beings are naturally fearful of change. This is a major reason why most of us can’t lose weight fast. Our unconscious has some unknown reason to hold on to our present weight and not let it go. It can be fear of change or some other fear that most of us aren’t aware consciously. Whatever the reason is, it has a great influence on our efforts in losing weight fast. If we did not have any unconscious fear of losing weight, then all of us would naturally lose weight fast as it is our natural state of being.

For instance, have you seen over weight dogs? or cats? If by any chance it is very rare. A lean body is our natural state of being like all other animals. But since we have been driven away from nature and living an artificial life we have all this social problems which most of other animals don’t have.

So any move to lose weight fast has to begin with the correct mind set. You should believe that you can lose excess weight fast and should develop a positive mind set towards your goal.

Burning calories is essential in losing weight fast. Actually weight loss simply is to burn more calories than you take in. Herein are some tips on burning calories and losing weight fast.

Eat Small Portions of Food- When you eat small portions your body has more energy to break them down and your metabolism is much more effective when you eat small portions.

Move Your Body More Often- Body movement is essential in burning calories. Even small movements are very effective in this regard. Just standing up and stretching, using the staircase instead of a lift, pacing up and down is very effective.

Eat Fat to Burn Fat- Healthy fat is essential for our bodies to perform its daily chorus. Fats like Flax seed oil, Olive oil, Salmon, Avocado, are healthy. These fats increase the calorie burning potential.

Drink Cold Water- Drinking cold water whenever possible is a great way in burning calories. Your body will burn more calories in trying to raise the water temperature to the body temperature.

Exercising with Weights- Doing exercises with small weights like dumbbells is very effective. Just 15-20 minutes a day, 3-4 days a week would be sufficient. Lifting weights will build muscle tissue. Muscle tissues are very active metabolically. These tissues burn calories even at rest. So it helps to burn more calories than normal exercises.

Try Taking 1/2 Teaspoon of Cinnamon per Day- Cinnamon is found to raise your metabolic rate and keep your blood sugar levels in balance. Try it. It has two health benefits in one.

These are very effective tips that can be followed right now at home. To discover real reasons, why you are unable to Lose Weight Fast, CLICK HERE?

7 ways to lose weight without having to count calories

January 9th, 2010 by libertees

When trying to lose weight the counting of calories offers without dispute a great help. But it is undoubtedly a difficult as well as boring task,a task which each of us would like,if possible,to avoid.

Hereunder you can find some ways to help you materialize this wish:

1. Learn how to control the emotional eating. Most of us confuse the biological with the emotional hunger. So we use food to feed our emotions rather than our bodies.
For example,is there any prudent man to dispute that food usually plays the role of a substitute for sexual needs?

2. Consume omega-3 fats. Many researches have found various ways with which the omega-3 fats help people to control their weight.
One of the most important ways is the control of the blood sugar and insulin levels.
One good piece of advice is to eat sardines on a regular basis. You will see many benefits and very soon!

3. Try to have adequate and of good quality sleep. 8 hours is a big exaggeration because individual needs differ vastly. I would say,though, that at least 6 hours is an absolute minimum. Quality counts a lot!

When we are deprived from sleep there is a hormonal chaos in our bodies  which leads to hunger and the consolation of mindless eating.

4. Do not neglect to drink ample quantities of water. Water,besides other benefits,has excellent filling properties.
It is not unusual for our bodies to confuse thirst with hunger.

5. Learn the basics about satiation feelings. The most efficient way to induce satiation is to increase the consumption of protein from clean sources. Eat protein with all your meals.
Try to eat smaller meals and more often. This will keep hunger under control.
Make a strategic use of the also filling fats. Learn to distinguish between good and bad fats. The emphasis should be on monounsaturated and omega-3 fats.

6. It is of utmost importance to learn to eat all natural,unprocessed foods. It is nearly impossible to get fat by eating such foods.
The main cause for the obesity epidemic is the inconsiderate consumption of highly processed carbs and mainly sugar. Cut them drastically and forget about calorie counting!

7. And last but not least is the dire necessity for systematic physical exercise. The real problem is not to lose weight but to lose fat. We absolutely need to improve our body composition which means more muscle mass and less fat. This will guarantee a better life quality,particularly as the years pass.

To your health!

Is It Possible To Lose Weight And Not Count Calories?

December 28th, 2009 by libertees

Many weight loss diets, diet books, low carbohydrate programs and so on seem to love to advertise their programs by saying ‘no calorie counting’, ‘eat as much as you want’ and so on whereas other programs swear by the fact that you must count calories. So, who is right? Well both, kind of and here is why.

The key to weight loss or indeed transforming your body in anyway is the energy balance. Simply put, if you consume more energy/calories than you use up then you will gain weight, if you consume less calories/energy than you use up you will lose weight and if you consume the same amount of energy as you use up then you will maintain your weight. You see it is all very simple.

So, do you need to count calories to lose weight? Well no not exactly, you could just go through your days guessing that you are using up more energy each day than you are consuming. In a few weeks time you may notice that you have lost a few pounds or you may not, you may even find you have gained some weight!

The point I am trying to make is why leave weight loss down to chance, wouldn’t it be better to know how much you should be eating and to know that you are definitely going to lose weight? Of course it would. I know what you are thinking now, you want me to do hours of calorie counting and to work through energy balance equations to keep me on track. I understand your frustration; calorie counting is not the most fun thing in the world so here is a quick way to stop you counting your calories each day or at least make it less painful.

This process will take sometime and ideally you can do this over the space of a couple of weeks but once it is set-up there is no more work required at all. Most people have a fixed variety of food that they eat. They may eat cereals with milk for breakfast, jam on toast, bacon and eggs and so on. What you need to do over the course of a month is for each typical meal/portion of food that you have, just one time, work out the calorie contents of that meal/portion. You can easily do this whilst you are preparing it or even eating it. If you do this for just one dish per day for a month then you will have 30 meals/portions worth of calories worked out. From this menu of meals/portions you can then simply select the meals which will combine to hit your daily energy allowance.

This same menu can then be used over and over again and you can continually add meals to your menu to increase your database of food that is specific to what you eat. In this way, so long as the meals you are eating are nutritious i.e. they contain fruit vegetables, you can simply keep this type of diet going as long as you like. It is very flexible keeps your calorie counting simple and helps to give you something to aim for and a plan to follow.

Ideally you ought to aim for a calorie deficit of no more than 500 calories per day. Much more than this and your body will think it is starving and slow its metabolism right down, exactly what you do not want for weight loss. Instead you need to show your body that it is in no danger of starving by continuing to supply it with a steady supply of calories over 4-6 smaller meals per day that in total work out as a net loss of 500 calories per day.

By following this approach and doing some exercise you will find yourself losing weight naturally and healthily and what is more in a manner that will keep the weight off for life and leave you feeling trim and healthy. If you like the sound of this approach then I strongly recommend you check out the ‘Burn The Fat Feed The Muscle Ebook available on the links below.

How To Lose Weight Counting Calories

December 2nd, 2009 by libertees

If you have a few pounds to get rid of you may be thinking about how to lose weight counting calories. The most important thing to keep in mind here is that you should not try and eat too little to speed up the weight loss. All that will happen is that your metabolism will slow down and weight loss will become very difficult. If you want to speed up the process, doing moderate exercise is a far better idea. OK, so read on for an explanation of how to lose weigh counting calories.

The first thing you have to think about when you decide how many calories you are going to eat a day in order to lose weight is how active you are.

How active are you?

1. Sedentary:

You do very little exercise apart from normal walking. Your job is not active and you sit all day. You do not do any exercise.

2. Moderately active:

You are moderately active if you exercise at least 30 minutes for three to four days a week.

3. Very active:

You can consider yourself very active if you do strenuous exercise for at least six days a week. In this category will fall athletes, swimmer and people that play professional sport.

How to work out how many calories you should eat per day for healthy weight loss

1. Sedentary:

You need 13X your weight in calories to maintain your weight. For a healthy weight loss you should eat no more than 500 calories a day less than this. Once again you can speed the weight loss up by doing a little exercise.

2.  Moderately active:

A moderately active person needs 16X their weight to maintain their weight so  you have to eat 500 calories less if you want to lose weight, no more than 500 calories otherwise you will slow down your metabolism.

3. Very Active:

It is highly doubtful that a person in this category will be overweight, but if it is the case, you need to eat 19X your weight minus 500 calories.

How to speed the weight loss up:

As I have already mentioned you can do moderate exercise. Another way is to do some resistance training and build muscle. Muscle uses more energy than fat even when you are sleeping. So if you build muscle you will speed up your metabolism a lot.

On thing to keep in mind is that muscle weighs more than fat. So if you are building muscle, your weight loss may decrease or even stop temporarily, but after a while you will start seeing a fast drop in your weight as your metabolism speeds up and most of the fat is burning away at a faster tempo.

So, if you are wondering how to lose weight counting calories, this is the way to do it.

I have good news for you! There is an easier way to reduce calories than counting them. Go to the site How To Lose Weight Calories and find out. You can also go to Working Out Tips for ideas to speed up your weight loss.

How Many Calories Per Day do You Need?

November 20th, 2009 by libertees

How Do I Calculate Caloric Needs Based On My Goal (gain/loss/maintain)?

Listen, figuring out how many calories a day you need to lose weight, maintain your weight or gain weight really isn’t too hard. And with the formula I’m about to give you plus a very cool website, you can easily track where you are and what you need to do daily to reach your goals. So lets’ begin!

IF YOU DON’T KNOW WHERE YOU ARE, THEN LOSING, MAINTAINING OR GAINING WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE!

Step 1:

Take your current body weight in pounds (lbs) and multiply by 11.

Example: 194 lbs x 11 = 2134 calories

This is what I need to just keep what I have, without moving. But remember, you do move. So you have to then calculate your metabolic factors into this… so off to step 2…

 

Step 2:

Click to Get New ACCELERATED Fat Burning System

Figure out your metabolic factor according to the table below.

But first, some definitions to help you determine where you might fit in:

Slow Metabolism: You basically look at food and you seem to put on pounds. You can gain weight by eating salads but it’s difficult to lose the weight.

Moderator Metabolism: You can gain weight if you try. You can lose weight if you try. You really don’t have trouble losing weight depending on what you want to do.

Fast Metabolism: You are the skinny guy or gal who can eat *ANYTHING* and it makes no difference. Gaining weight is difficult. Losing weight can happen overnight. Just by watching T.V. you seem to shed pounds.

Metabolic %

Under 30 years old

Slow Metabolism- 30%

Moderate Metabolism- 40%

Fast Metabolism- 50%

30-40 years old

Slow Metabolism- 25%

Moderate Metabolism- 35%

Fast Metabolism- 45%

Over 40 years old

Slow Metabolism- 20%

Moderate Metabolism- 30%

Fast Metabolism- 40%

Example: 2134 calories x 35% = 746.90

I took my calories needed above just to sit here and not move and multipled it by my metabolic factor and I find that I need an additional 746.90 calories because of my specific metabolism.

Click to Get New ACCELERATED Fat Burning System

Step 3:

Put it together.

2134 + 746.90 = 2880.90 calories

I need 2,880.90 calories to maintain my current weight with my current activities.

Note: You can also adjust your metabolic factor if you do something that might take you to the next level. If you are a moderator metabolism person but you do distance running, it might make more sense to put your self in the fast category since you burn a lot more calories.

Step 4:

Now change the above with about 500 calories every day to reach your goals!

Lose Weight: I would take 2880.90 – 500 = 2380.90

Maintain Weight: I would just leave it at 2880.90 and continue what I was doing in my activities

Gain Weight: I would take 2880.90 + 500 = 3380.90

Note: 500 calories a day is just a general term everybody uses to say that adding this amount is within safe limits. Eat too much, and you end up storing fat. Cut too many calories and your body just goes into starvation mode and ends up retaining more fat. 500 is a safe, recommended guideline.

Step 5:

You must track what you are eating so you’ll know if you’ve made your goal for the day. And tracking food does not have to be complicated with weights and scales.

It’s a shame that so many people just start training and never figure out what they need to eat daily to reach their goals.

You can keep doing the math over and over as you reach a goal. If you are bulking, your requirements will change as you progress. And when you lose weight they will as well. You might want to lose weight, reach a target weight and then maintain. So you will do this formula again when you have hit the weight you want.
