Amazing! 600 People Lost 4000 Pounds In 10 Days on the 10-Day Detox Diet

Yesterday I wrote about Mark Hyman's new book, The Blood Sugar Solution 10-Day Detox Diet: Activate Your Body's Natural Ability to Burn Fat and Lose Weight Fast.

This book has quickly reached number 1 status in Amazon books.

How has this happened when it was just released?

First, the good Dr. Hyman is a master salesmen. This newest book brings him to the front battle lines in the war against diabesity - in emails (I'm in his list), TV (the Dr. Oz show for one), and on the Internet.

That being said, the 10-Day Detox diet, specifically designed to ignite your body's fat burning and launch you into better health, works. Dr. Hyman did the work to test out the 10-day detox diet.

Here's the results according to Dr. Hyman's recent email:

America is dying of its obesity epidemic with chronic diseases now killing twice as many as infectious diseases do. 

More than 70% of Americans are suffering from obesity. Many are desperately looking for a way to ignite and boost their weight loss, regain energy and heal their bodies. It is the solution to our health crisis.  And, I can prove it! 

A year ago, 600 people volunteered to try The 10-Day Detox Diet. In just 10 days, they collectively lost over 4,000 pounds. 

Most importantly, they enjoyed impressive health improvements, dropping their average blood sugar by 20 points, average blood pressure by 10 points and reducing all symptoms from all diseases by 62%. To top it off, they have sustained those successes for over a year!

Really? 

600 People Lost 4000 Pounds In 10 Days. 

On average, 6.67 pounds per person or 2/3 of a pound per day. 

People - this is not a quick-fix diet. It will transition you into further weight loss and health improvement (it's an eating plan, not a diet).

What are you waiting for?

Not Seeing Any Weight Loss Results? Try These Suggestions

I've been answering questions on Yahoo! Answers and I keep seeing the same theme - I'm trying to lose weight, but I don't see any results!

Here's a prime example: This person said she "drastically changed lifestyle but not seeing any results?"

I am female, 23yrs, 26 BMI. I have weighed 130 for the past two years, before then I was always 90-100. I'm very short.

I have been struggling to eat 1,200 cals a day, I really feel full before I make it to that but I understand I need to not eat too little, either. And I do 30 mins each of yoga, general cardio, and targeted strength exercises for my abs, arms, and legs every other day. I've also started drinking 8 cups of water a day and walking more. And like I've said, I've been doing this for 4 weeks. 

Is it normal not to see any progress yet?

My answers to these type of questions emphasize the low sugar/low carb eating plan as well as the right types of exercises to lose weight:

You started at 130 with BMI of 26. 

What were your key measurements (biceps, waist, bust, waist, thighs, calves) when you started? Your progress can be measured by the way your body has changed, not just your weight. 

I suggest you make a few tweaks (phase-in): 

• Instead of struggling with calories, focus on a low sugar/low carb (but good carb) eating plan. 
• Turn your cardio into interval training 2-3 times a week. 
• Keep up with the strength training and make sure you leave your body time to recover (max workouts - 3 times a week to allow for muscle recovery).

If this is your weight loss issue - you're not seeing any results after a month or two - you need to change up your methods, introduce them one at a time, and keep up your motivation! 

Want To Lose Twenty Pounds In One Month? Minimize This Bad Carb!

This morning I was listening to a famous boomer philosopher who lost
23 pounds in 29 days.

How did he do it?

The Story
Wayne Dyer has been around since the 80's talking about Erroneous Zones and writing creative self-help books like Excuses Begone!: How to Change Lifelong, Self-Defeating Thinking Habits.

I was listening to CD 3 of his audio program Making the Shift: How to Live Your True Divine Purpose.

In Making the Shift, he describes making a video for Excuses Be Gone. In the video, he has what appears to be a bowling ball under his shirt and wonders how his audience might receive his weightiness. Tough to explain when you can't come up with an excuse, although the common one is that older men "get thick" and there's nothing you can do about it.

There Are No Accidents
The day after the video viewing, Wayne met with Jorge Cruz, the exercise and weight loss specialist and author of The Belly Fat Cure: Discover the New Carb Swap System and Lose 4 to 9 lbs. Every Week.
Jorge relayed some startling facts like the following:

• In the 1800's, Americans consumed about 15 grams of sugar per day.


• At present, Americans consume 285 grams of sugar per day.


• A 12-ounce Coke has 45 grams of sugar.


• An 8-ounce glass of OJ has 30 grams of sugar.


• A tablespoon of ketchup has 5 grams of sugar.

Get the picture?
We boomers have grown up with built-in sugar addictions perpetuated (and nourished) by Food Inc. The result - a lot of fat people of all ages. "Getting thick" is a MYTH. Jorge claims that if you reduce your sugar consumption to 25 grams per day, you will lose 20 pounds in one month.

And Wayne did it and lost 23 pounds in 29 days. And my co-worker just stopped drinking Coke every day and lost 15 pounds in 3 weeks.

Low carb eating plans work (I have used them).

A Caution
This is easy if you want a slimmer YOU. This is hard if you aren't aware that sugar exists in just about everything we eat that's processed. Our boomer challenge is to get healthy AND beat Food Inc out of the profits they make poisoning us. By the way - were you aware what cancer feeds on? You got it - SUGAR!
