Are you Fat Adapted?


What does it mean to be fat adapted?

Simple…

It means your body is burning the fat on your body for fuel instead of the sugar your body gets from the food you eat.


How do you become Fat Adapted?

Simple…

Stop eating concentrated foods.


What are concentrated foods?

Simple…

Any food that is not in its natural state.


What doe is it mean to not be in its natural state?

Simple…

It means the food has been processed, like flours (any kind), sugars and fruit juices.  Any packaged food.

If you stick with Protein, Veggies and healthy fats like olive oil, avocado oil, nut, and avocados, and only eat 3 meals a day you will begin to become fat adapted.

If you add intermittent fasting, meaning you only eat in a 6 or 8-hour window,  you will become fat adapted faster.

But remember, you have to cut out all sugar & flour first.

Simple but not always easy...

Sounds simple enough, right?  Well, it wasn't until I learned how to manage my mind and my Overdesire for these kinds of foods that I was able to lose my weight.

How to get Results in your life - The Before & After Process (part 2)

Image
Yesterday we talked about the Before & After Process. Today we dig into the Before part of the Process… THE BEFORE PROCESS THE BEFORE IS WHERE YOU ARE NOW. It seems obvious, but I guarantee you it isn’t. Self-awareness is the least common trait we have as humans. We rarely take a hard look at our lives from the outside. We are so busy living IN our lives, we rarely work ON our lives. That is what life coaching is all about, stepping back and taking a look at our lives from the outside. This process works best if you can pick something specific to focus on in your life. For example: Your Relationship Your Career Your Weight Your Small Business Your Drinking Habits Your Productivity Your Stress/Anxiety Level Just pick one for now. You can go through this process as many times as you want, but the more specific you can be each time, the better. Let’s say you pick your career. You need to define the “Before”, which is whe

How to get Results in your life - The Before & After Process (part 3)

THE AFTER PROCESS CREATING YOUR AFTER Yesterday you created your Before Picture. Good job. Most people aren’t willing to have a look at their current state of affairs. They don’t look at what they have because most often it’s not what they want. But here’s the reason they don’t have what they want… Nine times out of ten it’s because they don’t even know what they want or they don’t believe they can have it. They are filled with excuses and complaints and haven’t even considered that they can decide what is possible. So now for the fun part… Dream! Think about everything you want in your life. Allow yourself to want, to Dream, to be open to Possibilities. Once I asked a friend what she wanted and she gave me a very boring “more of the same” answer. So then I changed the question to, “If anything was possible what would you want?” She got excited and sais "If anything was possible, I would want to quit my job and travel the wo

How To Get The Results You Want In Your Life!

The Model is a tool I use to help my clients see how their Thoughts are creating the results in their lives. The Model can be used to help you figure out why you are feeling a certain way.  Or it can help you see how to change the results you are getting in your life. This is not a new concept, but just a new way of looking at things. Our thoughts have always caused the results in our lives. Most people think it's the circumstances in their lives that are causing them the problems they have, but really it's our thoughts about the circumstances that cause the results. The Circumstances are neutral, they are the facts!  It's your Thoughts about the Circumstance that causes you to have a Feeling that you take Action on that creates the Results in your life. Here is how we define the five categories: Circumstances: Things that happen in the world that we cannot control. This could be the weather, something someone else did, or your pas
