Apparently, some people may have genes for metabolism B. And these people will never be able to lose weight and keep it off or get healthy using any textbook diet. And so The Metabolism Miracle is created as a lifestyle program to cover Metabolism B. For anyone who has tried to lose weight the conventional way.

It started when he quit smoking. He dcided that when he got a craving, he would either drink water, eat a fruit or vegetable, or go for a walk. Not only is he healthier, he is also much richer. He figures he has saved over $36,000 in that time...or about $1000/month. He is able to save this money by not buying cigarettes, not eating out, cutting his life insurance premiums in half (by qualifying as a healthy non-smoker) and by saving on gas by walking where he used to drive.

I've tried starvation diets, and they work for the short-term. A quick 10 lb weight loss in 2 weeks is from your body eating up more muscle than fat. Not good. I went to Thailand a few years ago where is was really really hot. I was 205lbs when I went there. I had no car and walked everyday. The food was amazing. Fried noodles, fried rice, rice porridge, pork omelets, etc. Just about everything I ate I made sure was very spicy. I found myself eating 4 or 5 times a day. After the first 3 months on this diet I noticed my weight was down to about 200. For the final 3 months of my stay I bought a nice pair of running shoes and began jogging in this intense heat. I started playing soccer and basketball whenever I had time. Without changing my diet at all, I came home at my lowest weight ever of 175. I dont know how my cholesterol was with all the eggs and pork I was eating. My metabolism was kicked into high gear. I ate so many tasty foods (the only oil used over there was palm oil). I think I can attribute my weight loss to the frequency of meals, frequency of exercise, loads of water (over a gallon a day), and the hottest peppers I ever ate (but loved). Also, the frequent 100+ degree days with 100% humidity probably helped too. Sadly, I shot back up to 200lbs after 2 months of coming back to the states. Driving everywhere, eating fast food. I still exercised, but not as much. I strongly feel that prepared foods are causing people to gain and hold on to their weight. In Thailand, 99% of the foods I ate came from fresh ingredients. Nothing canned, no frozen dinners, no fast food, no preservatives. If you are exercising a lot you need to eat a lot. I’ve tried starvation diets, and they work for the short-term.

The only food I'm not sure I agree with for boosting metabolism is soup. Soup, particularly if it is of the instant or canned variety, typically contains quite a bit of sodium. Also, I find that the portion sizes vs. calorie content of soups are very tricky. For example, I bought a bunch of Campbell's Healthy Choice soups the other day thinking they were low cal, but when I got home I realized that those calories were only for half a can, or a third of a can, instead of the whole thing. Oh well, lesson learned. Thanks for these great tips. I learned a lot from the posts here too, thanks everyone.

Does milk count? I hate it... but i'm willing to drink skim or whatever if it works! My little story: I cut out.... everything. Not very healthy. I had a glass of orange juice in the morning and one in the evening. For lunch I would have lettuce and tuna. That's basically all I ate for 2 weeks and I have lost 13 pounds... but now i'm stuck and I dont feel very healthy. Oh yeah, I ride my bike a pretty good distance to work and back every day so that may have helped a bit. I am realizing that I was not eating healthy and my body thinks we're in a famine so my metabolism is dropping like mad... bad idea. I really think this metabolism and portion control is the key. I'll give it a try! I'm a 21 year old male.... and should be in my prime... however I'm positive that I hit my prime when I was 14!! So i'm trying to get healthy again to have a real prime! Thanks all for the words of encouragement! And thanks for this great article! Ps: morale of my story = starving yourself will work for a few pounds, but you will destroy your metabolism and plateau (the worst!) and then when you give up cuz you havent lost any more weight... the pounds will come back 2x as easy!!

I quit smoking because I need surgery to replace a torn ACL in my right knee (among other things). Apparently the ligament graft (due to the co2 ) won't take if i smoke. It was the final wake up call. Also, in the same call was the doc saying "you carry around some extra weight, you know, that's hard on knees". So, here I am - awaiting knee surgery, 50 lbs overweight, scared of gaining another 30 (i gained 30 of this weight the last time i quit smoking and never lost it), eating the smallest, most healthiest portions of all of these foods listed above for over a month now, and working out (with a bar and bands the best i can, given my knee) every day. It's been a month since my injury and 21 since the wake up call. I haven't gained any weight yet. Haven't lost any, which amazes me because compared to what i ate and drank i was sure i'd see some loss. I am hoping that means something, because I need some positive results. I couldn't be more miserable. I can't walk, I can't smoke, I can't eat, I can't drink. What else pleasures do I get, or is this really it. Life is now officially over as I knew it. I am *trying* to look at it like this -but it is so damned hard: if I dont manage this, it will be 80 lbs i have to lose. 50 is unimaginable enough. I am an ex smoker, too. 21 days today.
