Lose Weight

I’m going to show you how to lose weight rapidly using the Pentagon Approach. As you’ll soon see, losing weight doesn’t mean diet and exercise alone. 3 other things are VERY important.   Before I give you the Pentagon Approach, know that a pentagon has 5 sides. So I’m going to show you the 5 sides of weight loss. Combined, they pretty much force your body to lose weight fast if you’re consistent with them. 1. Diet For most people with average or above average genetic, diet is the most important thing you can focus on to lose weight. Diet is about 4 times more effective for weight loss than exercise. So for the majority of people, just understand that exercise won’t cover up your diet mistakes. 2. Exercise Exercise is great for maintaining weight loss. Exercise does help for weight loss, but it’s almost useless if you have a horrible diet. There’s a synergy between diet and exericse. 3. Sleep Study after study after study proves that the more sleep you get, the better your weight loss results. Although there’s conflicting reasons as to why that is, let’s just be practical and accept that whatever the reason… it works. So sleep more. This doesn’t give you an excuse to be a lazy slug, but getting in a nap during the day or an extra 45 minutes of sleep at night would help you a lot. 4. Stress High stress levels destroy your weight loss. If you had high stress levels and went back on a diet that helped you to lose 20 pounds say last year, well guess what… you may actually gain weight on that same diet this time because of your high stress. The stress hormone cortisol MAJORLY suppresses your natural ability to lose weight. 5. Medication Medications, especially birth control pills and cholesterol drugs, corrupt your natural hormones. When that happens, weight loss doesn’t happen. If you’re a woman who’s gone on the pill before or took a Depo shot, there’s probably a 90% chance you gained some weight right after that. Moral… avoid pills, including over the counter ones. That’s how to lose weight rapidly… by taking into account all 5 of these things (the Pentagon Approach).
