In Order to Become Your Ideal Weight a Weight Loss Program Needs to Be Healthy and Not Cause Sagging Skin or Rebound Weight Gain
Earlier I mentioned that an effective weight loss program needs to be very nutritious and healthy. In order to help you achieve your amazing transformation, let’s understand this vital characteristic in a bit more depth.
One of the main problems with typical crash diets is that they are not only low in calories, but they are also low in nutrients such as vitamins and minerals, etc.
Some weight loss programs try to get around this problem by adding synthetic vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants, amino acids (i.e. protein building blocks), and fatty acids in shakes or pills. These can be helpful, but they are definitely NOT a satisfactory substitute for a diet containing highly nourishing foods.
Many healthy foods contain 1000’s of specialist nutrients, as well as numerous nutrients that haven’t even been discovered yet. Whilst I am a big fan of supplementing our diet with additional vitamins and minerals etc., the vast majority of shakes and pills don’t come close to the nutrition we should be getting from healthy food.
The typical 500 calorie crash diet is woefully short of healthy nourishment whether it includes shakes and vitamin pills or not. And as such it is unhealthy. If a slimmer stays on that kind of very low calorie, low nutrient diet, their health will inevitably decline. For example…
• If a slimmer doesn’t get enough nourishment whilst they are on their diet, they risk getting a host of health problems.

• If they don’t get enough protein their body will strip their muscle mass leading to rebound weight gain.
• If they don’t get enough vitamins and minerals etc. they will become deficient and store more of the calories they eat as fat, and NOT burn them for energy. And this also increases rebound weight gain.
• If they don’t get enough of the protein, vitamins, and minerals that nourish the elastin and collagen in their skin, then their skin will not be able to stay healthy whilst they rapidly lose weight and they will get unsightly sagging skin.
Have you ever tried to follow a diet that is so low in calories and so low in good nutrition that it couldn’t possibly be healthy for you? When you had got to the point where you felt so empty, cold, tired and starving, what did you do?
At that point, many slimmers give up, and start munching the nearest comforting, sugar rich, fat laden food they can gobble down. And who can blame them? The aim is to become slim, not to starve ourselves into illness.
If you make sure that your diet is highly nourishing, then you will do far better than if you follow starvation crash diets.
Some Diets Are FAR MORE Nourishing Than Others
When analysed in the most advanced Nutritional Analysis Software, the diet I followed has truly excellent levels of all essential nutrients. The most advanced Nutritional Software doesn’t

just assess the levels of a few well known vitamins, minerals and amino acids in a diet, but actually calculates the levels of up to 110 different nutrients. When assessed in this very comprehensive way, the diet I followed is clearly more nourishing than even the healthiest
“health” diets on the market today.
It was because the program I followed was exceptionally nutritious that my health optimized whilst I lost 6 pounds each week. And it is also why I didn’t get any sagging skin at all.
As I lost weight, my skin was constantly being optimally nourished. As I lost weight I was NOT
stripping my muscle mass or putting in place any of the causes of rebound weight gain.
As I lost weight my metabolism did NOT slow and my energy was higher than it has been in decades.
If you are to become as slim as you would love to be, and NOT undermine your health in the process, then you too need a nourishing approach that will keep you healthy whilst you lose weight.
In order to avoid a host of health problems, including sagging skin, or rebound weight gain, it is essential that you make sure you are fully nourished whilst you become slim.
If you get the right help to identify an approach that not only suits you, is fast enough to keep you inspired, and is also healthy, then without doubt you will hugely increase your likelihood of rapidly becoming the weight you’d love to be.
You now know the 6 Characteristics that make a weight loss approach Truly Effective.
To sum up this section, an Effective Weight Loss Approach will…
