How can a Taoist help you lose weight!

What is this madness, how can a Taoist help me lose weight! I thought all Taoist's live in a monastery on nuts and berries? You don't want really expect me to live off nuts and berries, just so I can lose 20 pounds do you?

STOP!

No, I don't suggest that you go and make such a drastic change to you nutritional habits, although many 'health' gurus out there do expect that sort of a change and they will throw every bit of Scientific Research at you they can find to justify their new book or DVD.

Today everything is put into two categories 'Good' and 'Bad'. We have Good people, and we have Bad people, we have Good fats and we have Bad fats. Back in the days of the Taoist things were a lot more simple, the Taoist new that to lead a healthy and happy life he had to live in harmony with nature.

So what does it mean to live in harmony with nature? Well before you say it, No you don't have to sell your house and build a hut in the middle of some forest. Nature or Gaia has given us everything we need to live a healthy life, but we have forgotten how to listen to Gaia.

Today Gaia's richness has been replaced with the super sized Big Mac meal and the 3 Gallon diet coke for only a few cents extra! Well, forgive me if I am wrong but MSG and Aspartame are not natural products, hence they are totally against everything that Gaia stands for.

The junk food industry is against everything that the Taoist lives for, they do not teach people how to be responsible for what they consume, they do not make people aware of what people are consuming in their 'Restaurants'.

So what does a Taoist suggest to help me lose a few pounds? Well the key word here is simplicity, by simplicity I am mean Natural. Each time you eat something ask yourself this question, is what I am consuming Natural? One brief check of the ingredients and you can tell instantly if it is natural.

Try this little experiment for a week and see how you feel, I would love to hear how you got on with this experiment, please feel to post a comment on our blog!

1. Keep your stimulants to a minimum (i.e. caffeine, that means those diet soda's too)
2. Consume about 70% Fresh fruits and Vegetables (Yes, you can juice them too)
3. The other 30% should consists of about 20% Organic Meat, and 10% Fats
4. Remember to drink pure mineral water; stay away from tap water (contains many bad chemicals!)

What's the Big Secret to losing weight?

According to all the Marketing books I have read I am supposed to instill some fear into you the reader, perhaps by saying things like how obesity kills XXX thousands of people each year, or how about this one, fat guys and girls don't get laid! Well lets get rid of some of those silly fears:

1.We all know the risks of being obese, just switch on CNN!
2.Fat Guys and Girls do get laid, judging by how many searches are done daily on Google!

Now we have got rid of those silly fears, lets get down to brass tacks. The reason you are reading this article is because you want to know the 'Big Secret to Losing Weight'!

Have you noticed that when you open any diet book, the first several chapters are spent 'teaching' you about 'positive thoughts' or even why you have 'failed' on every single diet you have ever been on. Ok, lets get real here for a moment, I know what I am going to say is really going to screw my chances of making any money selling affiliate weight loss products!

Effective Weight Loss is not Rocket Science.

There I said it, but it's true it's not Rocket Science. Where people fail is not because they don't have the information, in many cases it is because they have too much information. Just type into Google the word diet, and you will be presented with all the information that you will ever need.
So if losing weight is not about knowing how many calories 1 gram of fat contains, help me Jay what is the answer?

Sorry if I sound like Sai Baba or some other guru, but the answer you are seeking is........YOU.

Jay, what do you mean I am the answer to the question? What kind of new age rubbish is that?

Weight Loss comes down to two things:

Yes or No

That's it, I told you it wasn't Rocket Science. You know what needs to be done, you want to lose weight , stop making excuses and start doing what needs to be done. Some people call this being Pro-Active, I would agree but with a little twist. Life is about choices, yes or no, do or don't do.

So next time your passing the Golden Arches, remember it's all about choices:

Big Mac and Super Sized Fries.....or A slimmer you?

I promised you the Secrets to Weight Loss, and I did it on one page and it didn't even cost you $39.99. If I could put this information in a 60 Page E-Book, I would make a fortune!
