Diet Supplements – Can They Help?

Can Diet Pills Help You Lose Weight?

There is no magic solution to the age-old problem of losing weight. You just got to take in less calories than your body burns. That way your body is going to dip into your fat reserves to make up the shortfall. Makes sense, yes?

So you have two choices. The first one is to play around with the calories you take in by controlling what you eat and drink (that’s called dieting) or you need to cheat!

The second option that you have is to play around with the amount of calories your body burns. Now that means increasing your metabolic rate (the measurement of how fast your body burns calories) either through exercise or cheating again!

Still with me so far? Good!

So what’s this cheating bit?

Look I know how hard this losing weight thing really is. I spent nearly 40 years clinically overweight and a very large proportion of that clinically obese.

The way I look at it is this. Any help I can get to achieve and then maintain my ideal weight and a healthy body is ok by me. When I say cheat I mean extra help to make a very difficult job easier than it normally is!

So, back to cheating. In your first scenario that’s where you stop your body taking in all the calories from the food and drink that you consume. Again we have two options to achieve the same goal with an additional third side benefit in most cases.

No More Feeling Hungry

The first is to cheat your body into not feeling hungry, so that you don’t want to eat as much as you used to. These are known as Appetite Suppressants.

They work in two ways. One by blocking or modifying the signals that your body normally sends to your brain to tell you that you are hungry. You know the ones that say you better go get a Double Big Mac with large fries or you are going to collapse in an incoherent mess on the floor. Cut out these evil little messages and way less calories are consumed.

The other equally sneaky method is rather than block messages, to release into your brain a flood of the signals that tell you you are full fit to burst and better not put even one more piece of food in your mouth or you are going to explode. Either way job done, goal achieved.

The second option is to physically stop your body sucking out all the calories from the food and drink that have gotten past the Appetite Suppressants and into your mouth. These are known as Fat Blockers.

“Why does Sea World have a seafood restaurant? I’m halfway through my fish burger and I realize, Oh my God….I could be eating a slow learner.”

Most Fat Blockers inhibit the action of an enzyme called Lipase. When we eat fatty foods Lipase normally breaks down the fat when it gets into the intestine, before being absorbed into your body.

With a Lipase inhibitor, a high percentage of the fat in the food that you swallowed is removed from the body through bowel movements instead of being broken down and absorbed. Fat down the pan means Luke is gonna be a slim cool man!

So you can literally sh!t yourself thin! Isn’t nature a wonderful thing?

The third scenario is where the supplements are actually able to burn your body’s fat reserves through lipolysis. This is a process whereby your body’s fat  & cholesterol stored in fat cells is broken down and then flushed out of your system. Which literally means you lose fat as you sit there!

Burning Calories!

This also has the added side benefit of lowering your bad cholesterol levels and reducing even further your risk of heart disease and strokes.

In the second main scenario you fool your body into burning more calories than it should. Now that’s gonna take a whole lesson on itself and you are going to have to wait for my next post to hear all about it. Fair enough?

Ok, sounds good to me…

Luke, if I have already heard enough to realise I should be doing something now and I can live with the cheating bit if it’s gonna help me lose this weight, what do I need to do next?
