Synopsis

If you are sick of yo-yo dieting and overly restrictive diets that limit carbs, or if you're stuck in a diet plateau, "Eating Free" can give you back the food and the life you love while still helping you to lose weight. To date, 2,000 men and women have transformed themselves on the Eating Free program with an 84% success rate of weight loss maintenance. Other diets, on average, have an 85% failure rate. Eating Free reveals why a little-known hormone, ghrelin, is wreaking havoc on your waistline; why almost everything you think you know about weight loss is wrong; and why what most Americans do in earnest to lose weight actually creates the Perfect Storm for them to gain weight! Eating Free is a refreshing change from diets that leave many Americans depressed, exhausted, and malnourished while stalling their motivation and metabolism. With Eating Free, you can lose the guilt, the misconceptions, and the weight for good! "Eating Free" sets the record straight on these common myths, and many, many more. Myth 1: Exercise Is Critical for Success. Exercise is important for health, but not as critical for weight loss. You don't need to spend hours at the gym. Eating Free offers a realistic alternative to the gym-rat mantra by proving that weight loss is 80% nutrition and only 20% exercise. What's more, since exercise causes ghrelin levels to spike, hitting the gym may be more detrimental than hitting your snooze button. You'll learn how to shop, not sweat your way to being lean, and focus on preparing delicious food instead of exercising excessively. Myth #2: You Need to Cut Out Carbs. With Villacorta's formula for optimal weight loss 45% carbohydrate, 30% protein, and 25% fat you will satiate your appetite by controlling the hunger hormone ghrelin and green-light a wide variety of delicious 'forbidden' foods (pasta, potato, rice, and chocolate) so you don't feel deprived. This formula prevents muscle breakdown and keeps you energized while losing weight. Myth #3: You Ne

"If you are sick of yo-yo dieting, overly restrictive diets that limit carbs or are impossible to maintain, or if you're stuck in a diet plateau, Eating Free can give you back the food and the life you love--and still lose weight. To date, 2,000 men and women have transformed themselves on the Eating Free programme--with an 84% success rate. Other diets, on average, have an 85% failure rate. Developed by nationally recognized, award-winning dietitian Manuel Villacorta, Eating Free works because it's a scientific solution which targets a complete set of lifestyle factors, not just calories and exercise. What's more, Eating Free will show you why a little-known hormone, gherlin, can wreak havoc on your waistline and sabotage your efforts, and why almost everything you think you know about weight loss is wrong! Myth 1: Exercise Is Critical for Success. Over 70% of Americans hate the gym or don't have time to go. Guess what? You don't need to spend hours at the gym. Research shows that the volume of exercise needed for weight loss is 1 to 2 hours per day, 6 to 7 days per week, which is a huge challenge and commitment. Eating Free proves that weight loss is 80% nutrition and only 20% exercise. You'll learn how to shop, not sweat your way to being lean, and focus on preparing delicious food instead of exercising excessively. Myth #2: You Need to Cut Down on Carbs. Based on years of research, Villacorta developed a special formula for optimal weight loss: 45% carbohydrate, 30% protein, and 25% fat. This satiates your appetite by controlling the hunger hormone ghrelin and also prevents muscle breakdown. Myth #3: You Need to Track Your Progress Daily. Instead of obsessing over what the scale reads each morning, Villacorta shows why it's more effective to gauge your body's needs and success in weekly increments. With a free online tool, The Free Q, you can score every lifestyle element that impacts your weight loss, including lots of stress and little sleep. This tool helps you live wisely for weight loss each week. No other program demonstrates how these elements play a critical role in weight loss with a free practical tool. "
