For years I have longed for figuring out how to transform my body from both inside and outside. However, it seemed there was still something that was making it harder for me. In reality these were just obstacles in my head or the myths I used to believe that made it seem less feasible for me than for other people.
Therefore now I would like to talk about 3 out of 5 biggest Body Redesign Myths, to help you realize that no matter who you are and how much you've struggled until now, you too can change your body for the best it could be. And you will!
3 Body Redesign Myths
We all want to look great - but are often hindered by excuses, prejudices and laziness... Here are some typical concerns we all have regarding weight-loss:
1. Genetics
People often blame their genes for being fat when it's often just an excuse for overeating. After all, fat people tend to have fat pets. Anyway, even if you are predisposed to being overweight, you're not predestined to be fat.
Eric Lander, leader of the Human Genome Project, has repeatedly emphasized the following: "People think that because genes play a role in something, they determine everything. We see, again and again, people saying: It's all genetic. I can't do anything about it! That's nonsense. To say that something has a genetic component does not make it unchangeable."
2. Cellulite
Cellulite is fat. It's not an incurable disease or a unique unsolvable female problem. It can be removed - just through correct diet and exercise. Or maybe you prefer the lasers and other fancy machines at cosmetic saloons and esthetic clinics that guarantee results? It's just a choice between natural and permanent, or fast, expensive and temporary once you return to your regular habits.
3. Fear of Eating
Not eating, excessive eating, or no exercise doesn't lead to a strong lean body - it leads to the emergency ward. You can eat lots of great tasty food, it is the composition of your meals that is important. Our bodies respond differently to carbohydrates, protein and fat.
A study by Kekwick and Pawan compared three groups put on calorically equal semi-starvation diets of 90% fat, 90% protein and 90% carbohydrate. This was the outcome:
1,000 cals. at 90% fat = weight loss of 0.9 lb. per day
1,000 cals. at 90% protein = weight loss of 0.6 lbs. per day
1,000 cals. at 90% carbohydrate = weight gain of 0.24 lbs. per day
Different sources of calories = different results.
1,000 cals. at 90% protein = weight loss of 0.6 lbs. per day
1,000 cals. at 90% carbohydrate = weight gain of 0.24 lbs. per day
Different sources of calories = different results.
Fat also represents protective warmth and energy for your body. When you're starving, your body enters survival mode and saves your body fat, increases fat storing hormones, and slows metabolism and fat burning hormones. And the crux is that you don't want any of that when trying to lose weight.
