Sometimes we are in a hurry to lose weight - maybe its for a specific special event coming up ... maybe a medical procedure... maybe you are just in a hurry. But you hesitate because you have heard that losing weight fast always means that the weight comes back. Is it really that bad? Surely weight is weight right? Angelo Poli, creator of MetPro joins Coach Crystal to talk about extreme diets and we get to WHY fast weight loss will eventually backfire. We discuss:
- Not all weight loss is advantageous.
- Quick weight loss doesn't contribute to the big picture of weight loss.
- Most effective weight loss method - water and why that CANNOT work
- What happens to your metabolism when you do an extreme diet
- It's not just hitting number on the scale but HOW you hit the number on the scale.
- During an extreme diet your body gets used to less calories to maintain the same number. Then your body adapts and stops losing weight. Then metabolism tanks.
- When you gain back the weight (because your body adapts), you typically will gain back all fat and not muscle.
- Why a slow metabolism matters
- Hidden down side of extreme diets/shakes/plans: these lose weight quick products never explain the loss of metabolism.
- It is possible to lose weight, take pauses, AND keep your metabolism strong during the process.
