THIS Makes You Gain Weight
What helps you maintain your weight after hcg diet
Note: This article was written by fitness and nutrition author Jon Benson. I have his permission to share it with you.
Caution:
This sounds like a silly question, but it’s really the most important question you can ask:
“What REALLY makes me increase my bodyfat?”
Is it too many calories? Sure. That’s one part. But I know people who can eat 4-5K calories a day and not add an ounce.
Is it dietary fat? Rarely if ever.
Fat is necessary to melt bodyfat. It is true that fat has more calories per gram than protein or carbs, but let’s look at this logically:
40% protein; 40% carbs; 20% fat = 40% fat; 40% protein; 20% carbs
So… no. Increasing your dietary fat does not mean you’ll get fatter…
UNLESS… ready?
Your insulin levels are too high.
Elevated insulin is not only the prime cause of diabetes and a sign of being hypoglycemic, but it’s also the prime numero uno reason people get fat.
And insulin is stimulated most by too many carbohydrates… even the so-called “healthy carbs!”
HOWEVER… ready again?
You can still eat carbs… you do not need a “low-carb” dietplan every day in order to keep your insulin and bodyfat low.
You just have to know what TIME to eat the carbs.
There’s a time and place for everything and carbs are no exception.
I have a presentation here that tells you more about how important timing is and how you can eat your carbs (even sweets) and shed bodyfat…

That being said:
If I had to cut one thing out of my diet for 1-4 days it would definitely be carbs.
I need fat… fat helps melt bodyfat… and I have trained my body to use its own fat-stores for fuel.
( See how on the linked-page above )
I DEFINITELY need protein… and so do you.
Protein speeds up thermogenesis, or your body’s own fat-burning heat factory.
Protein also blunts your appetite so you naturally eat less.
Some carbs are healthy… and I do not recommend you cut out low-sugar fruits and green veggies… you need that stuff.
But you don’t need grains, breads, etc.
At least for a few days.
THEN… you need them… but only after you do two things.

Remember: Don’t Quit. Get Fit!
P.S. My favorite “Feed Meal” (that’s what I call meals where I eat a lot of calories and carbs) is this:
Small serving of protein (1/2 my normal serving size) like chicken, tuna, etc.
Brown rice or baked potato
Slice of pecan pie (or Key Lime pie… yum.)
Then later that day I’ll have a few slices of New York-style pizza.
The next day I’m LEANER. It never fails.
The only time this can fail is if you do not set your body UP to receive these carbs and some junk food.
I call this my “Real World Favorite Foods Dietplan.” That’s not the name of my System but it could be! That’s exactly what it is.
I love it… so will you…
