HOW TO LOSE OR GAIN WEIGHTJUST THE BASICS OF DIETING

By Franklin B. Williams IIJune 23rd 2014

Page 2: Basics to Losing or Gaining Weight

WELCOME!My name is Frank and I want to share my experience with dieting. If you

need to lose weight or you know someone that needs to lose weight; pass this info around. Where major companies are trying to hide this

info from you by making it complex for you to understand. I’m going to give it to you in a way that you can understand.

Page 3: Basics to Losing or Gaining Weight

THE FIRST THING TO DO: REALIZING THE CAUSEWhat is the reason for you wanting to lose weight?

▪ Getting tired of people picking on you

▪ Health reasons

▪ You want to be around a long time for your family

▪ Getting tired of clothes shopping and not finding anything that fits you

▪ Tired of family/friends being ashamed of you

Whatever the case may be, change is important to you now. I have created just the basics to give you an idea of how and why diets are NOT as complex as the fitness industry claim it to be. What if I was to tell you, I lose 14 lbs. in two weeks without exercising? It’s true!

A THEORY OF WHY OBESE HAPPENSSome of you may get mad at me but you need to hear it in its rawest form. You’re not going to take heed of it If give it to you sweet and simple.

It starts within the household, obese is taught. Judging from experience, parents love to give their kids the very best in life including food. We don’t want our kids to ever starve or to wonder where their next meal is coming from. This is what taught us to eat with no boundaries. There are people that actually think it’s ok to over-feed their kid(s) and look at it as cute.

The results of this behavior is, as they become older they will become obese. Then when they reach adulthood, they will develop health issues. You would think adults know best, but if they themselves wasn’t taught how to eat; what chances do that child have of being obese?

Break the chain of FAILURE.

GETTING STARTED: A MUST DO BEFORE STARTING

This is the most important thing you can ever do in order to be successful at losing or gaining weight. This process is the Blueprint of diets across the world! You must know your weight and age to get your BMI.

Get the following:

• Get your Body Mass Index (BMI)• If you got the Android phone, go to Google

Play and download “MyFitnessPal”• If you have access to the web, go to

www.myfitnesspal.com and Sign Up.

Both app and website works independently. You don’t need to have both, but it makes things totally easier if you did!

HOW TO GET YOUR BMI MANUALLYIt’s fairly simple. The top part of the chart is a persons weight and the left-side is the height.

▪ Find your weight.

▪ Then follow your weight down to your height.

▪ That two digit number is your BMI.

If your weight exceeds the chart, by maybe 100 lbs.; you can do one of two things. You can either follow the layout of the numbers until you reach your weight and height or you can get your BMI online.

NOW YOUR READ!

THINGS YOU WILL NEEDMEASURING TOOLSIt’s not that difficult to measure food because all the tools have markings on that match up with the Nutritional Facts label on foods. You will need to invest in the following items:

▪ Measuring Cups

▪ Measuring Spoons or Scoops

▪ A Food Scale (I got Digital)

Remember K.I.S.S. acronym?

(k)eep (I)t (S)imple (S)tupid. Your going to do just that. Don’t go over thinking different measurements. If your unsure, research online and look for measurements conversion calculators or charts.

The App and the website is in place?

A LITTLE HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT

I want you to make a list of the foods you eat daily. This includes breakfast lunch dinner and any junk foods. Now, you have to be totally honest with yourself after all, its for your best interest. I want you to setup your list like my list on the right.

I want you to know how easy it is to go over your daily calorie intake thus causing you to become fat. The meal on the right is a meal I use to eat on my lunch breaks before I started this diet.

You should know that these type of meals are dangerous to people with weight issues because the calories alone in this meal is considered to be 4 meals! On an average, your meals should only be 200 to 300 calories per meal.

PERSONAL ADVICE TO YOUWHEN IT COMES TO FAST FOODS, YOU HAVE TO RESEARCH YOUR FOOD CHOICE LOOKING FOR THE LOWEST

CALORIE FOODS THAT ALLOWS YOU TO STAY WITHIN BUDGET. MYFITNESSPAL IS A GREAT RESOURCE FOR THAT. I WOULD EVEN TAKE IT ANOTHER STEP FURTHER, PLAN YOUR MEALS BEFORE YOU GO TO ANY OF THE FAST FOOD

PLACES.

DUNKIN DONUTS – DAIRY QUEENS – MCDONALDS – ETC.

Page 11: Basics to Losing or Gaining Weight

AVOID SUGARSIt’s like a drug that you can’t shake! If you start your morning off with a cup of coffee or cereal that involves regular sugar, chance are you will be extremely hungry throughout the day. Then stuff like KFC and others become attractive to you.

WATCH THE VIDEO it will change your outlook about sugar in general. It will also raise questions of “WHY did they put this on the market if it causes addictive like behavior and causes bad health.

GETTING STARTED ON YOUR JOURNEYNUTRITIONAL FACTS LABEL USING THE WEB

Get familiar with how to find the Nutritional facts on food products.

Page 13: Basics to Losing or Gaining Weight

HOME COOKING IS THE BESTSAMPLE MEAL SETUP

You got more control over the foods you eat.

Total Calories:320

Page 14: Basics to Losing or Gaining Weight

CONTINUE5 MEALS DAILY TIME FRAME WHY ITS IMPORTANT

I followed this time frame faithfully because it kept me from getting extremely hungry. Snacks play a big role in this process. I was able to keep my snacks under 200 calories each.

I ate stuff like:

▪ Green Tea and 2 Graham Cracker Sheets

▪ A bowl of Oatmeal/Cream of Wheat

▪ Low fat yogurt and etc.

Then when it came to the meals, I ate between 300 and 500 calories depending on my daily calorie budget.

THE BONUS SNACK: If for some reason I fell short of my daily calorie budget; I would eat something that would balance me out. Keep track of your calorie intake with MyFitnessPal smartphone app or the website. That is very important.

BOOSTING YOUR METABOLISMWHAT IS METABOLISMIt is the physical and chemical processes in the body that convert or use energy, such as:

- Breathing

- Circulating Blood

- Controlling Body Temperature

- Contracting Muscles

- Digesting food and nutrients

- Eliminating waste through urine and feces

- Functioning of the brain and nerves

THINGS YOU CAN DO IN ADDITION▪ Eat and Do the following: (Use what God gave you, not man made.)

▪ 1. Building Muscle (A MUST DO and stay active)

▪ 2. Exercise Programs

▪ 3. Drink Plenty of H20/Water at least 8 glass

▪ 4. Eat 5 meals a day (Breakfast, Snack #1, Lunch, Snack #2, Dinner) Providing you haven't went over your calorie intake; you can also have a lightweight snack before bedtime. I'm not saying eat a snack and soon after get in bed; but a couple of hours before bedtime.

▪ 5. Spicy foods (Red or green chili peppers)

▪ 6. Eat recommended Protein

▪ 7. Coffee w/splenda or straight black (remember you still on a diet so stay away from processed sugars.)

▪ 8. Green Tea w/splenda

Your burning calories even as you read this!

Page 16: Basics to Losing or Gaining Weight

EXERCISEEXPERIENCE VS. FITNESS INDUSTRY STANDARDSThe fitness world claim to it takes extreme exercises to lose weight. Well, that is stretching the truth a bit. I found that it takes 15 to 30 minute sessions no matter if your walking or riding a bike. You will still lose 2 to 5 pounds a week in conjunction with your daily calorie intake.

The only difficult part is when you exercise, you are burning calories and at the same time the system is adding bonus meals. For example:

It’s 12 O'clock PM and you have ate 1000 calories. Its time for your daily exercise routine. You do a 30 minute session on the Recumbent Bike and you burn 131 calories. Well, that 131 takes away from that 1000 and it now says you have only ate 869 calories. You have to find a balance between food and exercises.

This will frustrate you because MyFitnessPal says that you have eat more in order to meet your calorie goals.

ON THE PLUS SIDE: BIG PEOPLE BURN MORE CALORIES THAN THE AVERAGE PERSON! SOMETHING THAT THEY DON’T TELL!

Page 17: Basics to Losing or Gaining Weight

WHAT TO EXPECT▪ Plateau – Is when your body adapts to the

exercises. Just to keep this from happening, get a new BMI and Daily Calorie Intake Goal.

▪ Bloating – Your stomach is streaking so, you can’t eat as much as you use to.

▪ Clothes – Your losing weight, so your current clothes are going to become to big.

▪ Medication – If you are on medication, it will become a time when the doctors are going to make changes to your medicines.

▪ Territorial Bubble – Your losing weight so, you butt is getting smaller and you are going to notice that your not take up that much room.

▪ Get an updated BMI and Daily Calorie Intake – Should be done every 10 to 15 pounds lost.

▪ Smartphone Reminders – At first it serves as a reminder, then after a while its going to become irritating.

▪ Bathroom Activities – Never weigh yourself before you take a dumper/a number 2/pay a gas bill or whatever you call it…LOL! Always weigh yourself after. For the life of me, I can see how that would add a pound to you; but it does!

THANK YOU FOR READING!I hope that you will have as much success as I did. I lost over 46 lbs. in my first 5 months. So, the basics do work and if you don’t lose weight; its either 1 of 2 things:

▪ Your not measuring the foods correctly and your eat more calories than you calculated.

▪ Or, your not committed to losing weight and you still eating all the thing that is possibly putting weight on.

Dedicate yourself to learning how to measure food and you can’t blame anyone else for your lack of commitment.

If you do have success, I would love to hear from you. Send me and email at:
