Discover How
Calorie Shifting Works
There is little doubt that the Calorie shifting method
works, the question is how does it work and what makes this
eating method so effective.
Why do Diets Fail?
Before we go into how calorie shifting works we need to
explore the reason why so many diets fail. The statistics are
pretty dismal: over 95% of all diets end in failure. Sure, you
may experience some weight loss in the beginning, but sooner or
later, you are likely to see your weight loss halt. Then, it's
only a matter of time before you start gaining the weight back
again.
Why does this happen? Why do so many diets fail?
The answer has to do with our metabolism, that inner
process which determines how fast we burn calories or fat.
To put it simply, the faster your metabolism runs, the
faster you burn calories and the easier it is for you to lose
weight and keep it off. If you have a slow metabolism, you're
basically fighting an uphill battle, as your body actually
struggles to burn as little calories as possible.
This is called metabolic slowdown and it is the result of
many diets on the market today.
Why Does Metabolic Slowdown Occur?
Our body's internal mechanism have been shaped through years
of evolution. And our body always tries to do what it thinks is
best for its own survival.
What happens when we cut down our calorie intake by too much
or deprive our body of specific food-group like carbs or fat,
is that our body goes into "starvation mode" thinking that it
is starving. Our body is still working as if in the time of
cavemen, when food was scarce. The main objective is to
survive. When food is scarce our body tries to go longer by
burning less and less food.
This isn't good news for us when we diet. We want the body
to burn more calories but it actually works against us by
slowing the metabolism down. This is why so many diets start
off well but get stuck. Your metabolism has simply slowed down
too much.
How is Calorie Shifting
Different?
Calorie Shifting actually helps to solve this metabolic
slowdown, or to avoid it. When you're shifting your calories
you actually 'trick' your metabolism.
This metabolic 'trick' is meant to make your metabolism
believe that you're not dieting when in fact you are. It's a
neat trick.
This is how you achieve a long term continuous weight loss
and is why the Calorie
Shifting Diet works so well.
