though as with nuts the calories quickly pile up, which will hinder weight
loss if you eat too many.
Q: How about canned foods?
A: Look for any canned items that do not have additional salt and no other
preservatives (look at label again). Meats like fish/sardines are packed into
cans and healthy. Aim for those that are water or olive oil based (not
canola or soy).
Q: Do I really have to give up my coffee for the 1st week?
A: Yes, because we both know you will survive. Many have actually gone
on without it from that point on! Give your liver a break from the stress of
caffeine for a week, it will be happy.
Q: What about protein powders?
A: Eating real food is the 1 st priority . Most protein powders are also loaded
with sweeteners and other chemicals. If for some reason you think you are
not going to eat enough during the day, then it is your choice. But also, you
probably don't need as much as you think you do (Read this book to
discover the truth on how much protein you really need).
Q: What about other supplements? Vitamins?
A: You can take a multi-vitamin if you like to cover your bases, but you
should be aiming for all your vitamins/minerals to come from real foods.
Q: Won't fasting for any time slow down my metabolism?
A: No, it won't. What we are discussing is “intermittent fasting” which still
has you eating each day. Only longer periods of fasting (days/weeks) will
have a more detrimental effect on your metabolism (after 72 hours in some
studies). If you want all the details on IF, then pick up this book.
