Healthy Does Not
Necessarily Mean Good for Fat Loss!

 A day doesn’t go by without
having to explain this concept. It may be one of the most misunderstood
facets of
fat loss.
“I eat right, but I can’t
lose weight”
Ok. Lets take this statement
and examine it for a second.
It could mean that they are eating perfectly, and their metabolisms are so
damaged and sluggish that they need a great deal of exercise just to get
things going again.
It could mean that they eat healthy foods, and just eat
too many calories worth of those healthy foods.
It could mean that they eat foods that they have been told are healthy, such
as trail mix, granola, or Jamba Juice smoothies, but create a fat storing
environment.
I have found that the third
meaning is the one that I encounter most. I repeat: “Healthy” does not
equate to “fat loss”!
Do you have to be healthy
to maximize fat loss?
Indeed you do, but it does
not require eating so-called “healthy” foods. Most of what is advertised as
healthy is actually high in calories and sugar.
We’ve already explored how
foods high in sugar create a negative environment for fat loss to occur in.
The basics of truly healthy
eating are very simple: the majority of the diet should be comprised of
“meat, leaves, and berries”; in other words,
nutrient dense foods that are high in fiber and quality sources of protein
and fat.
There are tons of places on the web where
