Fat Dad Thin Dad - Episode 3

Well Fat Dad completed the first 4 weeks of the challenge and here are the updates. Watch and then we will give you some more specifics…

Yes, simplicity is the key to success. The biggest challenge people have is attempting to do too many things at once. You end up losing your focus. You attempt to change what you eat, how you exercise, and many other things at the same time. You end up hungry, sore, and totally confused. And….you end up quiting and saying this doesn’t work. I have lost my ability to lose weight. Well stop it!

The way to have success is taking it one step at a time. Find one thing this week that you can change for the better. Maybe it is giving up something you know is not good for you or at least reducing the times you eat it in a day or week. If you do that, then you are now on your road to reaching your goals. Now add something else. I know how it is to pore yourself into a program and get to the end with some good results but then you are extremely tired and worn out. Not a good thing.

Measure The Right Things

Stop weighing yourself! Yes, you heard me right. Only measure your self. I would recommend the places I stated in the video and in addition you should add your butt. I forgot to measure that when I started so I decided not to include it in the challenge. Who cares how much you weigh when you can wear your skinny jeans, right?

Focusing on the simple things are what will get you where you want to go in this crazy world of fad diets. In fact, toss out the fad diets and only focus on these simple things.

Until Next Time…

No Food Diet

One of the most popular fad diets out there is the concept that you can lose weight by starving yourself. Yes, you can drop pounds using this method but usually this weight is not fat but muscle. Other challenges are that it slows down your body’s metabolism and then all bets are off. The biggest downside we have discovered with this approach to dieting is that many times it leads to anorexia.

Here is a great video that explains the No Food Diet and hopefully you can see the irony from this fad diet approach.

How many times have you tried this type of fad diet?

Here are the results that we have discovered using this no food diet. You lose weight quickly but about70% of the weight loss is fat. When you go back to normal eating habits, the weight comes back. However this time, my clothes don’t seem to fit the same way. The reason was that each time we did this cycle, we lost muscle and gain back fat with the same or more weight. Now my overall body fat is greater which makes my total body volume bigger even though I weigh the same.

Maybe We Should Call It The Quick Way To Fatness Diet

The final analysis for this fad diet approach - only do it if you want to wear larger clothes when you are done. Yes, you heard me right. This fad diet will just make you fatter than you currently are when all is said and done. This is why it is important not to measure your progress in weight but in inches. Who cares what you weigh when all you really want is to fit in that size 6 dress or those skinny jeans or just look good in your bathing suit.
