Can you lose 20 pounds in a week
- 2. The fastest way to get thin is by starvation. You can lose 20 pounds a week through starvation. But you don’t want to do that.
- 3. When you starve, our body will start to break down body mass to use it for energy. When you lose your body mass, this will lead to death.
- 4. In the case of starvation, the body would start breaking down lean body mass for energy through a process called glucogenesis.
- 5. YES, it’s POSSIBLE. You can do it by EATING the right kinds of HIGH-QUALITY food. And the body will start burning stored fat for energy.
- 6. The main source of food energy comes from carbohydrates. This includes wheat-based products, corn- based products, sugar and rice (i.e. processed grains).
- 7. If you stop eating these carbohydrates, which is the main source of energy, our body will be forced to look for the source of energy somewhere else.
- 8. Now, this would be the BEST time to give our body proteins instead of carbohydrates.
- 9. If you give our body an alternative source of energy i.e. proteins, you will get the benefit of getting lean without losing our body mass like in the case of starvation.
- 10. The process looks simple but it is very…very… important if you want to lose 20 pounds in a week.
- 11. Let’s look at the process of getting thin once more, which enables you to lose 20 pounds in a week.
- 12. Stop taking carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are the main source of energy in your body. So what happens? Your body will start breaking down body mass to use for energy, a process glucogenesis.
- 13. To prevent glucogenesis, give your body proteins, instead of carbohydrates. Proteins take a long time to digest. So, your body must work harder to break down proteins.
- 14. Since your body will be working hard to break down proteins, it will require a lot of energy. Remember, you have stopped giving your body carbohydrates, which is the main source of energy. So, what happens here? Your body must look for alternative source of fuel.
- 15. Where will your body get this alternative fuel? Your body will get it by burning body fat. Your body will start breaking down triglycerides.
- 16. Triglycerides are the stored, stubborn body fat that gets stuck in the fat cells.
- 17. When triglycerides are broken down into smaller quantities to become fatty acids, they are released in the blood stream to be used by your body for energy.
- 18. The more triglycerides become smaller, the leaner you become. The slimmer you get, you become beautiful and you enjoy seeing your body in the mirror.
- 19. You will be surprised how much fat you will burn if you restrict carbohydrates (i.e. refined grains) from your diet.
- 20. Remember your body needs fuel all day long. It needs fuel for everything that you do and to run its internal functions. If your body can get fuel by burning the stored fat, you will be amazed by how much fat you burn and how great you look.
- 21. This is a fact that the diet and fitness industry don’t want you know. They want to keep this secret so that they can continue selling you their products as the diet and fitness industry continues making profits.
- 22. The population changed its eating habits in the past 120-130 years. Unfortunately, people are eating more empty calories than before and the most serious thing is that pretty much all of the increase has come from processed foods.
- 23. Discover how the “health foods” that you eat every day are responsible for making your cells sick, making it difficult to burn unwanted fat.
