2 Weeks in the Fast Lane
A quick fix diet usually leads to disappoint and often more weight gain. We continuously read or here about that a figure around 90 per cent of dieters regain the weight they lost within two to five years? Dismal statistics! But what about the 10% who reach their goal and maintain their weight loss? Surely they are the ones we all want to know about?
Do they all change their eating habits for life and accept that it’s going to be a slow, but ultimately healthier and more successful process?
Not necessarily according to nutritionist, author and ‘food voyeur’, Fiona Kirk whose book: 2 Weeks in the Fast Lane reveals some of the latest research into accelerating fat loss and what YOU can do in just 2 weeks to rediscover your waistline.
Having decided to ditch the negatives and focus on the success stories, Fiona embarked on a mission to find out what successful dieters do. How do they not only lose the flab, but keep it off? After months of meticulous interviewing through a series of face-to-face and online questionnaires, she made a very illuminating discovery.
63% of the successful dieters had found a quick fix diet that worked!
Despite the negative press quick-fix diets attract, it appears that some can (and do) work.....and not just in the short term. Fiona's in-depth study revealed that once her somewhat surprising 63 per cent found a 7-14 day diet that delivered the initial fat loss they were looking for, they adopted some of the strategies they had learned along the way, reached their fat loss goal and most importantly maintained it. And, some of their prolonged strategies weren’t quite what she expected - she was onto something!
Fiona explains: “2 Weeks in the Fast Lane is not a crash diet, it does not restrict calories or leave the dieter short of nutritional goodness and it is not depressing, distressing, demotivating, demoralising or destructive. It is a 14-day diet that brings together the latest research into faster fat loss and champions some of the fat loss tactics employed by my inspirational 63%. It is a short, punchy book which offers positive and workable recommendations, paying scant attention to the negatives that do little more than confuse and frustrate most dieters”.
Key to Fiona’s Diet Are:
- foods that encourage fat loss
- foods that turn up our fat burning mechanism
- foods that delay hunger and conquer cravings
- foods that make us feel good
- foods that fire up our sex drive
- foods that help us sleep
Did You Know?
- the substance that gives salmon its pink colour increases the use of stored fat for energy
- women whose diets are rich in vitamin D carry around 60% less abdominal fat than their D-deficient counterparts
- slim people eat calcium-rich foods - five helpings per day result in faster fat loss
- a bowl of spicy lentil or bean soup keeps hunger pangs at bay and keeps the fat burning furnace firing for hours
- exercising on an empty stomach first thing in the morning followed by a full english breakfast is currently the hot ticket for increased fat burning
