It has traditionally been a “female thing” down the years …. the whole weight-loss dilemma. I think it’s fair to say though that most people want to look good – us guys too. None of us want to be uncomfortable with our appearance. Maybe it’s a symptom of the years catching up with one where we long once again for our youth at times when we ‘looked good’ or maybe it’s  just because we want to be healthy …. i dunno …… I just think most people want to look and feel good about themselves.

Now I’m not one who normally climbs on the advertising bandwagon raving about this or that new product but I want to make a bit of an exception here and punt a program which I really do believe works and perhaps it will help you to discover a healthier, happier lifestyle when it comes to your eating habits. It’s called The ABS Diet. I discovered it a few years back when I started purchasing Men’s Health Magazine. There was a discount voucher included for the book which looked very interesting – so I went ahead and ordered it and it had amazing results in store for me. The “Diet” (although it’s not really a diet at all but rather a healthy eating plan) is based on a book called “The ABS Diet” by  David Zinczenko. It was a New York Times Bestseller. Now – at the time I purchased the book I weighed around 90KG, which was TOTALLY unacceptable. There is a large amount of reading matter in the book which explains the benefits of a healthy eating plan coupled with a regular exercise program. The whole program is based around keeping your metabolism active throughout the day by eating the correct foods – 6 times per day!! Within 6 weeks I had lost 17 KG and found myself weighing  73KG (2 K’s underweight for my height). It was awesome! I did stick to it rigidly though to obtain these results. The program is supposed to help you develop your ABS, which I know I have – I’ve just never seen the things!! I didn’t exercise as thoroughly as I should have though – so am still in pursuit of them.

Over time though – as with all eating plans and diets – if we don’t keep them up we slip back into bad habits and before we know  it the Kilo’s are building up again. I have in the last 2 weeks decided to pick up the book again and this time I am determined to go all the way to a healthier me before Christmas.

If you’ve been struggling with your weight and are sick and tired of starving yourself on diets which are really just fads – learn to eat correctly by looking into The ABS Diet. I can assure you that if you give it a go and stick to it for a while you WILL see lasting results. The Men’s Health Web Site has a whole section devoted to it. Go have a look and see what you think ….
