Does that blog title grab your attention? Do you wonder what those numbers are referencing? Do you wonder which side of the %’s you may fall? Read on and see because our concern is that you may not be where you want to be!

Bottom line: this blog is very short and simple … and yet disturbing and aggravating. In our office and in others offering the Lifetime Metabolic Program we serve LOTS of women. Because of that, we recently began digging up some information as to why this is.

At our office, our experience in helping people have allowed us to clearly see there really is no luck or “lottery effect” to weight loss or healthy weight management.

There’s a simple truth at work: Your decisions today determine your actions … and your actions today produce your results of tomorrow.

We can’t take short cuts today and hope to end up on the “road to health” later on. We can’t slack off today and expect to reap our desired results for weight loss and health down the road. We can’t “cheat the system” (science, research and proven results) today and not expect to pay the price later.

The 4 Key “S” Pieces of the Lifetime Metabolic Weight Loss Puzzle

We have now walked many clients successfully through the Lifetime Metabolic Program. Most of them share with their friends, family and co-workers about the program and about me and my team. (Thanks!). Plus, we love sharing videos, before & after pics and other information on Facebook. As a result of all of this, we get asked about the program a lot when we are out and about. Make no mistake: we love that! We’re always excited to share about the program. Of course, we work hard to apply The K.I.S.S. Principle … meaning “Keep It Super Simple” when we share in such a setting.

So, maybe YOU have heard, read, watched a video, seen pictures or in some other way asked questions like this:

“What the heck are they doing there to achieve such great results?” “What is this Lifetime Program really all about?”

Most people are not aware of this, but vegetable oils were not originally called vegetable oils. They were originally called seed oils. In order for a person to be able to consume vegetable oils, they all have to be chemically extracted from grain, seeds, or beans. They were given name “vegetable oil” because the word “vegetable” appeared to be healthier when marketing the products (“seed oil, “grain oil”, and “bean oil” just don’t sound as healthy in marketing!). They are literally industrial oils, and were used only as such prior to being utilized in foods beginning in the early 1900’s. Things like animal fats/lard/tallow, fish oil, coconut oil, olive oil, and avocado oil do not have to be chemically extracted to be obtained and consumed. Hence, they have been consumed for centuries.

One of the most frequently asked questions when someone is on a metabolic meal plan designed for weight loss is what to do about constipation. Constipation may occur due to decreasing carbohydrate consumption. There is nothing wrong with having less frequent bowel movements as long as they are consistent and not painful.

In the instance that it has been an extended number of days or you are uncomfortable, there are several things you can do to combat this.
