Negative Calorie Diet

Can you really lose weight without cutting calories?

I have to admit when I first heard about the Negative Calorie Diet I was sceptical. There was no way possible I was going to lose weight without cutting calories and engaging in an intense fitness program.

Reducing calories and exercising intensively were the only ways I knew to lose weight and though I had not been very successful, I accomplished more than by continuing to eat the same way and exercise very little. My best friend told me about the diet several years ago, but I was still hesitant until I saw her lose twenty pounds in just a couple of months.

After seeing the results she realized from the Negative Calorie Diet book, I ordered a copy for myself. She had tried to explain to me the concept of the diet, but it still made no sense to me. I knew that metabolism had everything to do with weight loss but what I didn’t know was there are about a hundred different foods that have the ability to boost your metabolism by speeding up the metabolism.

By eating as much as possible of these “fat burning” foods every day, your metabolic system will work harder to burn the fat and you will lose weight. The book also include three fat-burning exercises that you do three times a week for only fifteen minutes—not very intense compared to what I had to do on other diets I had tried.

On the Negative Calorie Diet I did not have to reduce calories though I did find myself eliminating empty calories in an effort to reduce the excess calories I was consuming. I was surprised to discover how easy the diet was to follow, and I was never hungry or tired as I had been on other diets I had tried.

I discovered when reading the book that the secret to this diet is not eating less or consuming low-fat foods but boosting the metabolism with diet and exercise. As I began to lose weight I realized that the problem I had been having from the start was not eating too much food but eating the wrong foods. Certainly I had my share of junk food but even when I eliminated it I didn’t have success with diets.

Using the concepts of the Negative Calorie Diet I was able to lose fifteen pounds in a little less than thirty days. Although I hadn’t expected or wanted to lose weight that quickly, I learned that I could still keep the weight off if I kept my metabolism running at high speed. I also learned to change my lifestyle so that I was eating healthier foods and more of those with fat-burning ability.

It was a welcome change to have to buy new clothes after struggling with the extra weight for so many years. For some people fifteen pounds may not seem like very much but for someone who wore a size 5 wedding dress, there was a big difference.
