How to Break a Fast (Appropriately) and Keep the Weight Off

by Robert Dave Johnston

Overview

How to Break a Fast (Appropriately) and Keep the Weight Off is Volume 6 of the series, "How To Lose Weight Fast, Keep it Off & Renew The Mind, Body & Spirit Through Fasting, Smart Eating & Practical Spirituality."

This volume will take you through a 30-day process of breaking your fast correctly so that you can re-stabilize your body after a long period of calorie restriction, eat the right foods (and in the right quantities) and avoid wrong foods, negative mental chatter and/or impulsive behaviors. It is my objective in writing this volume to also help to ingrain in you a healthy and structured dietary regimen which, if adopted as a lifestyle, can solve the weight problem and keep you from regaining the weight ever again.

This straightforward system (which includes specific diets and sample menus) is the one that helped me to overcome years of obesity and crippling binge eating disorder. I'm confident it can do the same for you, if you have the willingness to take action and follow some simple instructions.

In 'How to Break a Fast and Keep the Weight Off,' we will see::

* Why the hardest (and yet most important) part of fasting is what you do (or not do) once the fast is over
* Why it is normal to gain 5 to 10 pounds the first month after a fast, and how to keep this natural weight gain from spiraling out of control
* What to expect mentally and physically when you transition from fasting back to eating
* How to correctly "prepare" to break your fast, and what that single moment in time represents for your life and your future
* What "starvation mode" really means, and how to overcome your body's natural tendency to 'store' fat cells instead of letting them melt away
* Detailed instructions for ending a fast of any length so you won't blow all the great work you've done
* Mental and emotional nuances to watch out for, so that you do not eat too much, too soon
* A detailed 'Shopping List' of supplies that you will need to effectively break the fast
* How the metabolism reacts during as well as after fasting, and why it's so critical that you follow some simple 'rules' to get the most consistent results
* A day-by-day guide to what to eat and drink for the first 10 days (and what to avoid) so you can just follow along and stay on track with virtually zero effort
* A long-term vision of what it will take to keep the weight off and what type of foods you will need to watch out for
And much more...!

About the Author

Hello and thank you for visiting. I really appreciate you stopping by and taking a look. I guess in some ways I am an alternative medicine renegade. I talk about topics that, in my opinion, are critical for human health (mental, physical and spiritual). However, many people don't want to hear it because it places the responsibility for their weight and health squarely on their shoulders.

I believe there is a health crisis in our country. We've all heard of the obesity epidemic and how children of grade-school age are being diagnosed with adult diseases as hypertension and Type II Diabetes. And, if the children are ill and overweight, then that means the parents are probably just as bad or worse. Indeed, there is a health crisis. But more than that, there is a crisis of personal responsibility.

Giving in and 'going with the flow' is easy, at least for now. But sooner or later the piper comes around to collect with some sort of sickness, an unexpected condition that suddenly sobers the mood. And the truth can no longer be denied or escaped. That is why I have written this series of books.

I want to use them to carry the message that EVERY weight loss goal CAN be reached with the proper mental artillery and physical preparation. I know what it's like to suffer with obesity and an eating disorder. Food addiction took more than 20
years of my life, and I want to prevent that from happening to anyone else. So here I am for all who care to listen.



Best Regards,

Rob
