ETL Diet Re-vamped!



Have you ever thought about the diet that you execute every day. Diet does not necessarily mean, "weight loss" automatically. Have you ever heard of the phrase, "So-and-so's diet needs a healthy dose of whatever?" There are healthy diets and there are unhealthy diets. I would like to teach you guys and gals about a diet that is revolutionizing the way you will think about diets. WHY??? Because it is way different than the rest of the diets on the market today.

So, I was sitting down and thinking one day. I was thinking about what all the diets have in common. All of the diets have one thing in common, it is that diets are normally keeping track of calories or keeping track of stuff. It is a pain to keep track of stuff and I was sick of it. There is a benefit to keeping track of stuff, but I felt that keeping track of stuff was pointless and a waste of time and energy. I have come up with a diet that only keeps track of what you eat, not the calories, not the fat, just the substance of what you eat. There is no writing down anything, just thinking and a little bit of common sense. We want to see and realize what it is that we are eating. Let's get started!

ETL Diet
The ETL Diet stands for the Easier Than Life Diet. This diet is easier than life, quite literally! The thing that makes it easy is that anyone can do it and it is completely re-writing the diet and weight loss industry as we speak. The thing that the weight loss industry doesn't want you to know is that you actually have a good chance of GAINING weight on their diet program rather than LOSING weight. Why is that? It is for the sheer fact that people don't want to keep track of EVERYTHING they eat, why they eat it and when they eat it. They don't want to do the point trackers, journals, shakes, jump through the hoops and other malarkey, tricks, and shenanigans to try to lose a small amount of weight. It is very expensive and time consuming to lose weight. Not on the ETL diet!


1. What Goes in Must Come Out
What goes in must come out. When you eat junk food, you are going to find that you don't feel good. Why do you think you feel bad when you eat McDonalds or other fast foods? It is because you eat GMO foods and straight hormones and chemicals. FAST FOOD COMPANIES DON'T WANT YOU TO DO RESEARCH TO SEE HOW BAD THEIR FOOD IS!!! They would go out of business if everyone knew how bad their food REALLY was.

On the flip side of the coin, when you eat what is good for you, then you will feel better and feel good. Your body will naturally feel better when you begin to eat better. When you eat fruits and vegetables, your body consumes what we would like to call, "healthy fuels." These healthy fuels convert to feeling better. Fresh fruits and vegetables have myriads of good vitamins and minerals in them. I also find that if you can add a supplement such as omega 3 fish oils, vitamin C, or gingko biloba, or panax ginseng, you can help add energy and efficiency to your body and can help you feel better. (Always consult your doctor before adding supplements to your diet!)


2. Watch What You Eat
All you have to watch with the ETL Diet is what you eat. As with the first point, all you have to do is eat better. If what you are planning on eating is not good for you, then you don't eat it. There is no keeping track of calories, carbs, or little meaningless things like that. All you have to do is make common sense decisions on eating good food, such as fruits, vegetables, grains, and stay away from sugar, candy, and soda. It is that easy!
Good food (fruits and vegetables) + Common Sense (thinking about what is good for you) = something you should eat

So many times we eat whatever tastes good to us, and our body naturally craves what is bad. The reason being is that our bodies have grown accustomed to eating the junk and that's what it accepts as good food or food that it wants to eat. Don't follow your tongue! Your tongue doesn't have the brains to know that food is bad for you. You have to use your brain and think about what is good and bad.


3. Think DifferentlyThere is a powerful tool that my pediatrician told me to use and he would suggest you using it as well. There is power in thinking differently. "Think of bad food as poison. This will allow your body to see bad food and the effects that it has on your body better," is what he told me. Think of bad food and drink as poison! If you know that it is going to be toxic to your body, then don't even put it in your body!


4. Exercise 
Exercising with the ETL Diet is this easy. All you have to do is exercise for 5 days a week at an 1 hour a day. With this diet you do cardio exercises, aerobics, weight lifting, martial arts, or bodybuilding. You may choose from these choices. Running falls under aerobics and is considered the best by most beginning dieters. Running at 4+ MPH is the best to start with. 5 days of exercise a week for 1 hour a day is easy. You get two days off and it makes it Easier Than Life. If you want to exercise for more hours on one of the days to compensate for other days in the week, you can do that too.

For those that want a challenge, there are FREE workouts that you can get on your phone or print out and do that normally don't require any equipment! CLICK HERE to take a look at the completely free workouts. No matter what your body type and age, there is a workout on here that will help you lose weight. The HIIT or High Intensity Interval Training workouts will burn the most fat!


5. Share It With Friends
We are trying to go viral and we may write a book laying out our diet if we can get enough people to get on board. I have the book written but we need help in getting the word out there! I have lost weight in doing this. I went from 225 LB. to 180 LB. in a few short months. It was that easy. There was no hassles of starving, no keeping track of stuff, no nothing. I know what it is like to do the point trackers, the shakes, the junk and spending too much money and time on it. All you have to do is think about what you eat, exercise, and live your life!

We have come to the the midway point in the year and I want to encourage you to keep your New Year's resolutions! I urge you to keep going and lose that weight. As we are trying to finish up May, I am challenging you guys and gals to beat those fitness, weight loss, weight lifting, and bodybuilding goals to get to that beach body you deserve! You can do it!

Do You Have Diabetes?

Did you know that anyone can have diabetes? You could have diabetes right now and not even know it. Today, I would like to teach you about how to know if you have diabetes. How do you know if you have diabetes or not? Did you know that you can be skinny and have diabetes? You can! We will go through some tell tale signs of diabetes and know when to go to your doctor to receive suggestions for how to cure diabetes.


1. Increase in Hunger
Diabetes is a disease that causes your body to work extra hard to fuel your body. Your blood sugar or the glucose in your blood runs too low to fuel your body. Your body will find that it is hungry a lot of the time, but the biggest aspect to this is if you are hungry after eating.


2. Fatigue
Increased fatigue and weakness is another big sign that you might have diabetes. If you reach the end of your energy earlier on in your day than you used to, you may be sleep deprived, but if you're not, then you may have diabetes because your body is running low on blood sugar and energy.


3. Rapid Weight Loss
This is a sure sign that you have diabetes or the possibility of diabetes, especially when you are eating like a cow and you are still losing weight. This should be the most apparent one and will be the one that is most visible. Your body is trying to produce energy from somewhere because it can not get energy from glucose in your blood stream. This is not the good kind of weight loss.


4. Increase in Thirst
Typically when you have diabetes, you will find that you will want to drink more and more. This is due to several factors. These include, eating more, your body not running as efficiently (the body is 75% water after all), and the body needing water to produce glucose.


What should I do if I have these symptoms?
You're sitting here and you're probably thinking, "well shoot, I may have diabetes!" I want all of us to stop and take a deep breath, breathe in, and breathe out. The first thing that you can do is make an appointment with your doctor to discuss the possibilities of you maybe having diabetes. The second thing would be to take a look at a diet plan. (We have one here that is FREE!) If you are dead set on destroying diabetes, I have heard of a plan that will help you destroy it. (Click here for even MORE FREE help!)

I do hope that you feel a bit more educated on diabetes and the possibilities of you having it or not! I hope that you guys and gals take care of yourselves to create the best and longest life filled with good aspects and qualities that you can have. Diabetes is one of the silent killers. Don't let it get you!

Drink Calories, Diet Killer

I bet you that you never thought that just drinking something would help you lose weight, right? Well, I would also say that you can lose even more weight by removing something from your diet. I'm going to keep it short and to the point. There is a reason that soda is the most popular beverage in the world today. We will take a look at why you should be looking at what you drink, as well as what you are eating.

1. Calories
When it comes to soft drinks or sugary drinks, the calories could be through the roof. According to Harvard University, "A typical 20-ounce soda contains 15 to 18 teaspoons of sugar and upwards of 240 calories. A 64-ounce fountain cola drink could have up to 700 calories." We face a growing problem with consuming too many calories in soda. 

2. Diet Killer, Obesity Feeder
The reason that drinking sugary drinks that have a lot of calories is that sugar converts directly to fat. Eating or drinking fat doesn't make you fat or overweight, eating or drinking sugary foods and drinks make you fat and overweight. Here is the evidence from Harvard University, "Two out of three adults and one out of three children in the United States are overweight or obese, and the nation spends an estimated $190 billion a year treating obesity-related health conditions. Rising consumption of sugary drinks has been a major contributor to the obesity epidemic. A typical 20-ounce soda contains 15 to 18 teaspoons of sugar and upwards of 240 calories. A 64-ounce fountain cola drink could have up to 700 calories. People who drink this “liquid candy” do not feel as full as if they had eaten the same calories from solid food and do not compensate by eating less."

3. What Can I Drink?
Water, drink just plain water! There are 0 calories, 0 grams of sugar, 0 fat, 0 everything! There are so many health benefits to drinking water, many of these include the facts that water is the key to life in the body and it promotes a healthier life. TIME magazine mentioned a study done that encapsulated this fact by asking 84 people to take part in the study for 12 weeks and they said this about the results, "The group that loaded up on water lost about three more pounds than the group that didn’t up their water intake. And the more they drank, the better the results; people who drank 16 ounces before every meal lost about 4.3 kg, or 9 pounds, over the course of the experiment. “That’s about what you get from going to Weight Watchers for 12 weeks,” Daley says. “That’s a real success.”"

To wrap things up, we can gain so many more benefits from drinking water and watching what we drink as well. Cutting these calories and filling up on water before meals can cause us to eat less without even trying. Why do we not utilize this trick more often? For more information on the astounding amount of money spent on advertising for soft drinks that get our minds to buy the sugary drinks and for more information on the study in TIME magazine, click on the links below. Please comment on your successes in drinking water instead of sugary drinks in your weight loss. Now is your time to show off and share with other people to help other people reach their obesity killing goals!
