How To Lose Weight (FAT) WITHOUT Supplements,Drugs Or Equipment

I wish there was a way for me to scream "NO!!!" loud enough for all to hear my cry. STOP investing in a slew of supplements that will NEVER work, no matter how long or often you use them (read on to learn why). NEVER purchase gimmicked exercise machines that promise miracle results (whether it be for the stomach, buns, hips, thighs, or ANY body part), but in the end, only serve as a cheap giveaway at your next yard sale. Ab machines promising to firm your stomach and help you lose weight, all in a mere 30 days, DO NOT ENHANCE THE APPEARANCE OF OR FLATTEN YOUR WAISTLINE, and will NOT BURN ONE OUNCE OF EXCESS FAT. Yet, they do add nicely to your weight loss related junk collection.




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is only a small sample of the MANY misconceptions regarding permanent weight loss, and in the following paragraphs I will try to END all of the unnecessary confusion.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Realize that body fat not only attaches itself to our stomach, hips, thighs, and arms, but also to our FACE...losing fat improves the way we look from HEAD TO TOE! Trust me, I know...since I once had a chubby everything...



Why Is Weight Loss So Confusing?
I'm Francesco Castano, and in my attempts to become a naturally large bodybuilder, I made MANY dietary mistakes that left me with over 50 pounds of excess fat and a grotesque 43 inch waist.

Every individual who is in need of weight loss has a goal of finding the perfect way to permanently lose FAT without devoting themselves to complex, dangerous, unrealistic diet and exercise routines. Throughout my initial years, I read many articles and books on nutrition, putting the various ideas, theories, and plans to the test -- on myself. Some worked better than others, but none worked very well. Nevertheless, I had much weight to lose, so I continued experimenting with different dietary strategies.

Along with trying many popular fad diets, I also spent loads of money and time experimenting with legal dietary supplements that promised quick, miraculous weight loss. I figured that with so many "fat burners" on the market claiming to quickly and effortlessly remove excess weight, at least ONE had to work as advertised. After spending countless dollars on popular supplements with the words "thermogenic" and "metabolic" printed on the label, I found NOTHING that came in a pill, powder, or spray that helped in eliminating ANY excess weight (FAT). What really upset me was that these companies legally and continually advertised amazing results, yet delivered nothing but the status quo. I even tried "stacking" several products simultaneously hoping for a hint of progress, but I was left with utter disappointment.




The Weight Loss Supplement Lie
How can these supplement companies continue to deceive the public with their outlandish, UNPROVEN claims, when pharmaceutical companies must undergo rigid testing prior to releasing publically consumable drugs? The sad fact is, although the government regulates these supplement providers, claims are RARELY examined. Therefore, well known companies can release a new supplement monthly, advertise results that aren't even possible with ILLEGAL drugs, and suffer NO adverse impact. They benefit, but we continue to suffer.

Unfortunately, WEIGHT LOSS SUPPLEMENT PROVIDERS COULD NOT CONTINUALLY PROFIT IF THEY OFFERED A PRODUCT THAT ACTUALLY PRODUCED PERMANENT RESULTS! IF YOU LOSE WEIGHT, YOU WON'T BUY THEIR NEXT "NEW, AMAZING FAT ABSORBER", BUT WILL KEEP SENDING THEM $200 PER MONTH TO TRY THE NEXT BOTTLED FAD. AMAZINGLY, THEIR GOAL IS TO KEEP YOU FAT! THE LESS WEIGHT YOU LOSE, THE MORE SUPPLEMENTS YOU WILL BUY! NEVER FORGET THIS!

If supplements can claim to offer an "easy, FAST, LEGAL aid to weight loss", we're all going to try the product in hopes of finally achieving rapid and permanent weight loss. Guess who benefits? Not us. This is scary, but very true. DON'T FALL FOR IT! I did, and am disappointed that it took me years to determine that I was not buying a legal, safe weight loss agent, but rather an overpriced, hard to swallow capsule that added to my confusion.





The Key To A Flat Stomach
Can you obtain a rock hard stomach from a plastic pillow? What about a wheelbarrow? It would be nice if you could, which is why SO MANY people bought those frightening abdominal "rockers" and "wheels". On one box, I saw something like "Over 250,000 sold", which means that over 250,000 individuals wasted their time and money on an overblown bird feeder. First off, FAT IS THE ONLY REASON WHY THE ABS (STOMACH MUSCLES) ARE INVISIBLE. Case closed! Even if you perform thousands of crunches each day, OR EVEN ALL DAY, you will NEVER HAVE A FIRM MID-SECTION WHEN FAT HIDES THE UNDERLYING MUSCLE! The key to losing this stored fat is PROPER DIET -- you can even neglect exercise completely, and if you follow an effective diet routine, you will burn body fat (exercise simply enhances the rate of fat loss WHEN YOU FOLLOW A PROPER DIET)!

The makers of these machines are well aware of this fact, which is why they include a diet program with each of these contraptions. They hope the user follows the diet plan, and attributes any improvement in their appearance to the dummy machine. Wow! It's nice to see ethical behavior has taken the world by storm! But let's now examine WHY the machine doesn't work. Each of these contraptions, by nature, are designed to make a stomach crunch EASIER, which does NOTHING to increase firmness and improve tone in your mid-section! In fact, to make crunches effective, you need to increase, not decrease, resistance, which is the EXACT OPPOSITE of what these gadgets offer. Unfortunately, there is NO machine in existence today that can offer you such stimulation, so stop searching. Remember, you NEED TO LOSE FAT FROM THE MID-SECTION TO DISPLAY A FIRM, ATHLETIC STOMACH, and toy store items like these abdominal chairs and wheels will only eat up your hard earned money. LOSE THE FAT through proper diet (WHICH IS THE PRIMARY FACTOR), and CORRECTLY perform crunches (that require NO SPECIAL EQUIPMENT), to tone your abs. But remember -- YOU CAN'T DEFINE YOUR MID-SECTION WITHOUT LOSING FAT, THUS CRUNCHES WITHOUT PROPER DIET ARE WORTHLESS! Many perform crunches while following an ineffective diet routine, and achieve NOTHING, so never forget that proper diet is CRUCIAL! No special machines -- no awkward, uncomfortable exercises -- it's not as difficult as people think!



The Bottom Line On Supplements
And Equipment
I could not even consider naming every available weight loss product that falsely promises rapid, dramatic physical improvements, as the list is endless. This is not taking into consideration the thousands of products not yet introduced -- a new batch of weight loss fantasy gadgets and supplements are released every 1-3 months, and they ALL fall into the same category (waste of time and money!). If you learn only one lesson from this web site, let it be the following:

PROPER DIET AND EXERCISE IS THE ONLY ROAD TO PERMANENT AND CONSISTENT WEIGHT LOSS -- THERE ARE NO SHORT-CUTS! NO "MIRACLE" EXERCISE DEVICE OR SUPPLEMENT CAN BURN FAT, AS THE KEY TO TRANSFORMING AN OVERWEIGHT, FLABBY BODY IS PROPER DIET/EXERCISE TECHNIQUES.

The above may be difficult to digest, but it is nevertheless the absolute truth. Physical fitness enterprises make their billions by appealing to your inner most senses, creating the appearance of a "do-nothing" approach to achieving dramatic physical improvement. Despite their deception, never forget -- there is no product available NOW OR IN THE FUTURE that substitutes for proper diet/exercise techniques. If you remember this, you've learned more than 95% of the people who are currently pursuing weight loss. KNOWLEDGE IS KEY!





Must I Exercise To Lose Fat?
The only required element for consistent fat loss is proper diet, thus exercise is not an essential factor. Yet, if one chooses to engage in regular exercise, fat loss accelerates. For example, if you lose 15 pounds in one month through proper diet techniques (no exercise), you will enhance results by 5-15 pounds (losing 20-30 pounds) through introducing proper exercise variables in conjunction with diet. Thus, if you wish to enhance the rate of progress, adding exercise to proper diet is a worthwhile technique. Yet, if you are satisfied with the speed of weight loss using proper diet only, exercise is not necessary.



Weight Loss Clinics?
I don't have any specific gripes with weight loss clinics, but I firmly believe that anybody can lose weight without their symbolic hand-holding. They charge a mint for being a coach while YOU are putting forth maximum effort, NOT them. They should be paying YOU for working your tail, not taking a dollar a pound, or whatever their current promotion absorbs. Once you learn the proper diet and exercise methods, it's unnecessary to spend $200/month for somebody to watch.





Weight Loss - How I Discovered
The Proper Method
From low carb high protein, to high carb low fat, to the strangely popular high fat diet, I experimented with all available options. I found that certain meal plans have some very effective ideas, but none offered ALL of the necessary ingredients to quickly, permanently, conveniently, and SAFELY eliminate fat.



Low Carbohydrate Diet?
For example, the low carbohydrate diet plan will cause a reduction in body weight within the first 1-2 weeks, but the majority of weight lost is water / muscle, and NOT FAT. Fat loss will follow, but unfortunately it is accompanied by a metabolic slowdown. The initial reduction of water/muscle actually DECREASES THE RATE AT WHICH YOU BURN CALORIES and, as a result, you will GAIN BACK EVERY LOST POUND ONCE YOU INTEGRATE CARBOHYDRATES BACK INTO YOUR DIET! It is not possible to follow a no-carbohydrate diet long term (it is unhealthy to do so), and inevitably you will find yourself introducing them into your regular eating plan after several weeks. Never forget -- LOSING BODY FAT IS YOUR ONLY GOAL, as reducing muscle tissue and water weight DOES NOT improve your appearance, and in fact greatly slows or even prohibits the fat loss process (which is why so many are "stuck" with no further results). In addition, weight loss on a low carbohydrate plan produces a smaller version of your former self rather than enhancing your physical appearance (due to muscle loss, which eliminates tone, and creates a sagging, unappealing body structure). Lastly, once you begin to follow a normal, carb based diet (a low carb plan such as the Atkins diet is IMPOSSIBLE and DANGEROUS to follow long term), within several months, YOU WILL LIKELY FIND YOURSELF FATTER THAN BEFORE YOU STARTED THE DIET, and you'll quickly search for a new routine. Low carb diets are NOT a permanent fat loss solution!



Not Just Weight Loss....
FAT LOSS Is Key!
Always remember that weight is composed of water, muscle, and FAT -- your ONLY goal is to shed excess fat, as MUSCLE is essentially a calorie burning furnace (and will help you to quickly and permanently eliminate ALL excess body weight, EVEN WHILE RESTING). Any diet that restricts carbs in favor of high protein OR excessive fat intake is COUNTERPRODUCTIVE, and does NOT permanently eliminate body fat. In fact, most find themselves FATTER due to carbohydrate depriving diet plans.



High Carbohydrate Diet?
HIGH carbohydrate diet plans produce a different, yet EQUALLY INEFFECTIVE, response. In cases of high carbohydrate ingestion, the body actually SUPPRESSES FAT BURNING HORMONES, PREVENTING the release of stored calories (FAT). In fact, the only enzymes produced through a high carbohydrate focus are FAT STORING in nature (insulin), meaning unless calories are very low, you will ACTUALLY GAIN FAT ON A HIGH CARBOHYDRATE PLAN! Even if you were to sharply reduce calories, the excess carbohydrate concentration will continue to prevent the release of stored fat, but will gladly burn up muscle tissue (as protein content in such diet routines is extremely low). Thus, common diet philosophies that concentrate on a high carbohydrate, low protein/fat basis provide results similar to that of low carbohydrate / high protein structures -- muscle is lost, and fat percentage INCREASES!



Control Insulin WITH Carbohydrates!
One of the many keys to permanent weight loss is controlling the hormone "insulin". Through proper caloric division, food selection, and protein/carb percentages (where carbs are a part of diet, but properly balanced with protein), coupled with a potent exercise routine (if you wish to accelerate results), not only will you reduce overall insulin secretion, but also cause an immediate release of stored calories (FAT) into the blood stream. Insulin is essentially a FAT storage hormone and, if not properly manipulated through dietary variables, will PREVENT fat loss, even on a low caloric intake (which is the main reason why high carbohydrate diet plans will NEVER promote fat reduction, REGARDLESS of what many "dietary experts" have claimed). In addition, suppressing insulin reduces both blood pressure and cholesterol readings, while preventing/curing diabetic symptoms, all of which are potentially deadly health issues.



Starvation Diets?
Remember, ANY routine that results in muscle and/or water loss is NOT leading you towards the ultimate goal, which is to STRIP UGLY, UNWANTED BODY FAT. This includes programs that focus on calorie restrictions! When withholding calories from the body for as little as several hours, you naturally revert to "starvation mode", which reduces the rate at which you burn fat. You'll not only suffer from very low energy levels on such routines, but your body fat percentage will actually INCREASE when you return to a reasonable food intake (sound familiar?)! Your weight will drop, but MUSCLE and WATER will comprise a portion of the weight loss, and reverting to "normal" quantities of food yields rapid body fat increase, thus beginning the infamous "yo-yo syndrome". Don't ever forget this! Diet routines focusing on calorie restriction or starvation are actually DETRIMENTAL TO YOUR SUCCESS! Have you ever noticed how most overweight individuals actually consume very few calories relative to their size? They may eat two or three small meals per day, yet actually GAIN weight over time! Why? CALORIC RESTRICTION and IMPROPER MEAL COMPOSITION! Yes, if you eat properly, you can actually consume A LARGER QUANTITY OF FOOD, WHILE CONSISTENTLY LOSING WEIGHT. You of course should not OVER-EAT or stuff yourself with junk (as this will prevent fat loss), but rather consume sufficient food to feel satisfied. Severely restrictive food plans automatically prompt the body to slow the rate at which it burns energy, which literally dissolves all chance of body fat reduction. Eating more while losing weight? Yes, it certainly does work!

Believe me, sharply reducing calories is NOT the answer to losing unwanted body fat. In fact, it will actually cause your body to generate fat storage hormones!



Problem Areas -- Stomach, Hips, Thighs,
Buttocks, Arms, Love Handles, etc?
Contrary to popular belief, exercising a specific body part does not result in additional fat loss! The body has a predefined order of gaining and losing fat (this is genetic, which is why we all have different trouble spots), and we cannot modify this through exercise, diet, or any other method. What we CAN do is force the body to burn stored fat through following a proper diet, and as the body progresses through its own predefined order (arms, chest, thighs, waist, etc), fat in those "problem areas" disappears! If, for example, the stomach was the first area to gain considerable fat, you will find that it is also the last to LOSE fat, meaning you need to continue eliminating overall fat percentage through proper diet until the body begins to target the stomach region. You cannot change the body's natural, predetermined order of fat loss through exercise or any other method (sans dangerous surgery!), so do not invest in any machine or technique that promises to target specific problem areas (such as a "firm stomach, solid thighs, lean hips, or sleek arms"), as the key to solving ANY fat loss dilemma is overall weight loss through a proper dietary focus.





What Diet Plan DOES Work?
Firstly, remember that ANY DIET PLAN THAT IS NOT EASY AND ENJOYABLE LONG TERM IS COMPLETELY WORTHLESS IN YOUR EFFORTS TO PERMANENTLY ELIMINATE STUBBORN FAT! It's amazing how millions scour the Internet and book store shelves searching for the most radical, extreme diet plan imaginable, hoping to finally derive everlasting fat loss. Yet, since these unorthodox diet philosophies are unrealistic over the long term, any lost fat simply returns when the strategy is abandoned. Not only do such diet routines turn life into a painful ordeal, but they tend to discourage even short term consistency, which results in a quick reversion to prior poor eating habits. If your goal is to not only lose fat fast, but also ensure that results are PERMANENT, you need to embrace a diet philosophy that is enjoyable AND healthy, both of which spur CONTINUED consistency. Many lose X pounds of weight on a particular diet philosophy, and assume that once the weight diminishes, reverting to prior poor, unproductive habits will in some way MAINTAIN A LOW LEVEL OF BODY FAT. Of course this is ILLOGICAL, but many fail to think long term. IF YOU WISH TO AVOID THE YO-YO SYNDROME (losing, but immediately regaining weight), YOU CANNOT PARTAKE IN UNREASONABLE DIET AND EXERCISE TECHNIQUES, AS THEY ONLY LEAD TO FURTHER FRUSTRATION, AND LONG TERM FAILURE!



Well, if high carbohydrate/low protein, low carbohydrate/high protein, high fat, and calorie restrictive diets are ALL ineffective in promoting permanent fat loss, what method WILL provide dramatic results? Over the past several years, I have tried different protein/carbohydrate/fat ratios, caloric levels, meal frequencies, and exercise plans, and thankfully lost 50 pounds of FAT, 10 inches from my waist, and reduced my overall body fat level by over 20%. On a side note, since every supplement FAILED MISERABLY throughout my extended experimentation, NO external aids were used in producing my weight loss, as I quit consuming such rubbish after all of my past failures. I found, through years of experimentation, that it takes no special drug, cream, or machine to lose unwanted fat, but rather the knowledge to PROPERLY eat and exercise, as this is the KEY to quick, permanent, HEALTHY weight loss.

Remember, you don't need Daffy Diet Pills or the Sally Slim Step Slider Exerciser; once you know EXACTLY HOW to eat you'll achieve your weight (FAT) loss goal WITHOUT equipment, supplements, or ANY external aids. Don't worry, if you wish to exercise for enhanced progress, long 60 minute exercise sessions are NOT necessary. The most important part to a weight loss plan is realism, as even the most effective diet/exercise routine is rather moot if impossible to maintain long term. Programs based on high volume, frequent training, and complex diet structures ALL lead to mental burnout! This is why most people quit diet and exercise routines after only two weeks! Realism is the key to producing consistent, permanent weight loss.





Who Can Benefit From My Weight Loss Knowledge?
This plan is geared toward men or women of any age who DO NOT desire a bodybuilder type physique, but rather wish to primarily lose FAT, and if they choose to follow my exercise recommendations, firm up sagging body parts (enhance muscle tone) ( -- If you are looking to lose fat while gaining considerable muscle mass, visit www.musclenow.com -- ) Whether you need to shed 5 or 500 pounds, the diet rules are identical. I know how unhealthy and undesirable it feels to carry around excess poundage, which is why I'm so excited about helping those who can't find a reasonable solution. It's interesting to note that after losing the weight, I received many compliments on my facial features, which surprised me. My belief was that losing fat would make for an attractive body, while never even considering the improvements it would have on facial appearance. Well, to my delight, fat loss offered equally significant improvement to BOTH my body and face. So I learned, through my own success, that it doesn't matter where the weight is located -- the hips, arms, waist, thighs, buttocks, FACE, etc., it all comes off with the same diet plan.



Critical Lesson
Avoid Weight Loss Supplements, Useless Equipment and FAD Diets



If you only learn ONE lesson from my web site -- PLEASE SAVE YOUR MONEY by AVOIDING gimmicked weight loss machines, pills, and creams -- they DON'T WORK! Isn't it funny how the same guy who promises results with one machine releases a new, more expensive product six months later? If the first was so amazingly effective, then why the second...or third...or tenth? Ask yourself the same question about weight loss supplements. Why new products? If one pill or powder provides results, we need not turn to new, more costly alternatives. This is common sense, but I unfortunately ignored this very fact for many years. NONE WORK -- you can either take it from me, or learn through negative experiences. Remember, I invested large sums of money testing supplements that promise quick, consistent weight loss, and found that they are ALL a big, FAT LIE!

In addition, AVOID UNHEALTHY FAD DIET ROUTINES! NO DIET IS WORTH FOLLOWING IF IT IS EITHER DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO EMBRACE LONG TERM, AND THE LARGE MAJORITY OF ROUTINES PROVIDE UNREALISTIC, UNHEALTHY TECHNIQUES! I have individuals who indicate reductions in blood pressure and cholesterol after several weeks of following my dietary recommendations, and even have a diabetic client who ceased medication due to stabilization of blood sugar levels. In addition, increased energy and appetite control are BOTH A FUNCTION OF PROPER DIET/EXERCISE, and FAD routines do NOT offer a healthy, energizing, appetite suppressing method towards permanent weight loss (WHICH IS WHY ALL WHO FOLLOW SUCH TECHNIQUES ALWAYS SEARCH FOR NEW ANSWERS).

Steve Loses 50 Pounds
In Less Than 3 Months
With Fat Vanish!



Before


After


Well to start I am a 27 year old male and have been slightly overweight or FAT if you prefer since I can remember. In the past I had tried the latest high protein diet with not much success, I also tried the protein drinks, and the good old starvation diet. Still I only lost a pound here and gained two or three there! So I surfed the internet and found the Fat Vanish site. I had to have read the site on five or six different occasions and I finally decided I would try it. I must admit I was very skeptical, but I agreed the money back guarantee could not be beat. So I received the book and I began implementing the information from the book around two months ago. At that time I weighed 230 lbs. By following the system and implementing all of the information I received, the weight literally started vanishing! At first people that did not know what I was attempting called it water weight etc. Whenever I ran into people that said this I informed them of what plan I was on and told them a little bit about it. I also joined the gym and started working out, for the first month I did cardio (running). After the second week on the plan my pants started to loosen up and I was starting to get a real good feeling about this.

Well three weeks turned into four and I had lost around 23 pounds. Everything on the site was right on and at that point when people asked why I didn't just copy the book and send it back I informed them that Francesco had worked a long time on this and the results I was getting couldn't be better, so in my mind he lived up to my expectations and I wasn't going to rob him of all of his hard work on the best self help book I have ever read!!

Well here I sit typing this and its been a little over 2 months and I now weigh 180 pounds that's a 50, that's right 50 pound loss and I feel great!! I had to go clothes shopping and everything, My mother told me she hasn't seen me this thin since I was six! And everyone else I run into can't believe it either, I am always getting compliments and everyone wants to know how I did it and I tell then all about the program and where to get it! I have been told I look younger, completely different etc. Now I'm at the point where I don't know if I need to lose more or what, I never thought I would have that problem, although I still need to do some additional toning etc..!! So to make a very long story short, the book is great, Francesco is a huge help with any questions and the first step is to order it and find out for yourself, if you follow the book you will lose that unwanted weight and you will feel better. Thanks!!
