Weight Loss, slimming, calories, diets and basal metabolic rate :

Most people struggle at slimming down and even if they succeed, they rarely maintain the weight loss.

There are many reasons for failure at carbohydrate s weight loss.

What most people don´t realise is that many have underlying problems associated with the digestion and absorption of foods.

In other words, their diet and long term eating habits have been incorrect - only them will the basal metabolic rate function at the correct level.

Poor food carbohydrate s digestion problems reduce your ability to utilise food and the essential nutrients found in food such as the vitamins , minerals and trace elements which regulate all processes within your body.

Long term deficiency of nutrients leaves your body nutrition ally depleted and therefore unable to regulate essential functions correctly e.g.

carbohydrate s you may develop oedema (water retention) , high blood pressure, weight gain, an underactive or overactive thyroid etc.

Again, the metabolic rate is compromised if nutrition al deficiencies are present.

Some reasons for weight gain are :

1. Poor diet i.e.

high in salt, sugars, preservatives (ready meals) etc.

carbohydrate s

2. Lack of exercise

3. Food intolerance

4. Digestion & Absorption Problems e.g bloating, flatulence, indigestion, burping etc.

5. Slow basal metabolic rate

6. Underactive Thyroid / slow Thyroid function

7. ibs

8. Candida

9. Hormone Imbalance (mainly in women)

10. Cravings leading to bingeing

11. Use of certain medication carbohydrate s e.g.

HRT (hormone replacement therapy) , The Pill, heart tablets, anti-inflammatory drugs etc.

12. Water Retention / Oedema

Everyone has a different metabolism / basal metabolic rate :

I am sure you know people that can eat anything and everything all day but still not put on any carbohydrate s weight.

And yet you may just need to look at a chocolate and the weight just piles on!!!

This is the basal metabolic rate at work.

This example is very common and proves that we all have different needs - it also proves that all these Commercial diets carbohydrate s / Diet Companies that supply everyone with the same eating plan will not work for most people tong term as all our requirements are different.

Weight Loss is not only about counting Calories :

Food Calories are made up of Proteins, carbohydrate s & Fats.

So, it is carbohydrate s no good making sure that you eat only 1000 calories per day (this figure is only an example) if you do not know the ratio of Proteins, carbohydrate s and Fats in your daily intake.

Eating 1000 calories per day of say chocolates only will definitely not achieve weight loss carbohydrate s but eating 1000 calories per day of fish only would (this is only an example and should not be followed as eating a small variety of foods will caused nutrition al deficiencies) .

Therefore, counting calories only will not work - get the balance of food types and calories right carbohydrate s and forget about calorie count charts etc.

Calorie counting charts will only confuse you - use them as a guideline only.

You need to determine your body´s requirement for not only calories per day but also the ratio of Protein / carbohydrate / Fat in order to lose carbohydrate s fat weight and maintain the weight loss.
