The Simple Key to a Rapid Weight Loss Diet

Want to know a shockingly simple, yet amazingly effective secret to rapid weight loss? When people want to lose a lot of weight fast, they think it will require a substantial transformation to their current diet and exercise habits. This is generally true, because you have to undo the habits that got your body in its current condition. If you’ve been abusing your body for years, it may take a lot of effort to undo the damage and become healthy.

However, it’s possible to begin changing your body today, with one simple tip: don’t eat when you’re not hungry. It may sound oversimplified, but breaking this one habit will have immediate and long-lasting impact on your weight loss plan.

People are not biologically predispositioned to overeat. This causes a problem for the food industry, whose success depends on their ability to make people eat as much and as often as possible. They do this in two ways.

First, they create food that is physically addictive. We evolved to crave things that we need but which are hard to find in nature, such as sugar, salt, and fat. It’s good that ancient people craved them, because when they came across these rare and essential nutrients, they couldn’t afford to pass them up.

But now that we have sugar, salt, and fat in abundance, it no longer serves us to crave them. Of course, our bodies don’t know this, which is why we tend to overeat junk food. The food industry knows this, so they try to load up food with as many of these addictive ingredients as they can.

Second, they make these unhealthy foods attractive with effective marketing, creating an emotional addiction. They associate their foods with youthful exuberance, making people subconsciously think that they can have as much fun as the people in the commercials. All they have to do is eat the same food.

This combination of physical and emotional addiction is what makes it so easy to eat when we’re not hungry. But to even have a chance at rapid weight loss, you simply must stop doing this. Realizing that you have this addiction is the first step to breaking it.

Instead of eating when you start to feel the slightest desire for food, just wait a while. You want to get used to being slightly hungry. You don’t want to be starving, but don’t mistake slight hunger for starvation. This is a normal feeling, and it does not need to be dealt with by eating. Just enjoy the feeling of mild hunger, knowing it’s a natural and healthy state to be in.

It’s time to eat when your body, not your brain, says it’s hungry. A rumbling stomach is a clear sign that your body is hungry and it’s OK to eat. But eat slowly. After you eat, it may take up to thirty minutes to feel full. This makes it very easy to overeat, because the time to stop eating is long before you feel full.

When you get used to being slightly hungry, you realize it’s not hunger at all, just a normal state that occurs after you’re no longer full but before you become hungry. When this state feels normal to you, it means you’re no longer overeating, and that you can begin to lose weight.

Of course, there is much more to rapid weight loss than simply not stuffing yourself, but this tip will set the foundation. Once you stop overloading your body with excessive eating, you’re at a point where a well crafted diet can begin to take effect. Learn this one habit, and the rest will be much easier.
