Let's face it - disrupting your body's metabolism while starving yourself is not an easy lifestyle to maintain. Anyone who has tried to diet has probably gone through the pain and suffering of losing weight for a while only to lose momentum due to a sickness, vacation, family event, or just plain hunger!
Add to that all of the new fad diets that try to reduce or remove one of the primary food composition groups - carbohydrates, fats, or proteins. Although these diets can reduce weight, upsetting your body's metabolism and nutrition can only lead to fatigue, stress and hunger.
However, it is truly refreshing when someone comes along with with diet solution that focuses on an easier lifestyle change with the added benefit of nutritional value. Isabel De Los Rios has done just that!
In her new dieting book, The Diet Solution Program, she has brought together the best of her background in sports nutrition and physiology with a focus on metabolic typing to create a workable natural weight loss guide that really makes sense.
Her basic dieting concept is that with the right foods, you can eat sizable quantities and lose weight at the same time. Most dieters decrease their food intake so much when they want to lose weight that they do lose some pounds, then quickly level off. At that point, they have no recourse but to eat even less food, which triggers starvation mode and makes losing weight and feeling good very hard, if not impossible.
Don't be fooled by this ebook - Isabel De Los Rios packs a ton of information in a full 180 pages of background, inspiration, food & nutrition information - as well as menus, charts and journal templates. This is a complete guide that changes your thinking about food, metabolism and the simple preparation steps you need to lose weight naturally.
Her book is divi
Part 1 - Focuses on a personal program for success describing the three steps to weight loss, metabolic typing, and how to plan your meals in order to get the best results for your own diet type.
Part 2 - Specifically dives into very detailed information on good vs. bad foods - what to eat and what to avoid. Plus, immediate action steps to remove or change your household habits. Packed with over 50 recipes in 61 pages using all of the requirements and recommendations for good food in your diet.
Part 3 - Contains all the tools to measure your metabolic typing, Dietary charts (such as glycemic index, food portions) and data, meal journal templates, as well as full day-by-day example of menus for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks.
My only criticism of this guide is really just a small point - that is, as much as I know the author wants to promote good nutrition, there really isn't any section devoted to modern lifestyle choices you can make while at work or on the road.
It would be great to have some backup options such as fast food alternatives or less expensive non-organic market choices. Trying to get organic food or plan out our lunches at work is difficult for many of us with busy lives. It would have been nice to see a section of some options for those on the run. However, that kind of planning is really something you can easily develop on your own using this guide.
All in all this is a highly recommended dieting guide - it focuses on balanced foods, nutrition, and proper health to lose weight naturally. As always, no diet is guaranteed - and it is up to you to keep on track to get the benefits.
