If you’re like most people, then you’ve spent the bulk of your adult life fighting to keep your weight under control. You’ve tried fad diets, you’ve tried conventional diets, and you’ve tried hours of endless cardio. But in the end, none of these techniques worked and you are still searching for real weight loss tips.

Sure, a few of the diets helped you to drop some water weight. You lost 10-15 pounds, but then hit a plateau. From there on out, you simply couldn’t get any results, no matter how hard you worked. So you took a break from your diet and put the weight back on.

As a result, you’re still struggling with your weight problem today. But you’re getting older and you’re starting to feel as if you’ll never lose it. Fortunately, if what Tom Venuto claims is true, then you may be in for a good surprise.

“To Lose Weight, You Have to Burn the Fat and Feed the Muscle”, says Venuto!

First, let me introduce Venuto. He’s a nutritionist from New Jersey who spent much of his life working as a natural bodybuilder. Today, he’s taking the simple strategies that he learned during his career to tell people like you exactly how you can be similar to people like him. That is, how you can “burn the fat” and “feed the muscle.”

According to Venuto, the process is all too simple. There’s no magic involved or supplements required. Rather, it’s just a matter of getting the right information about nutrition and then acting on it.

In fact, Venuto goes as far as to claim that it is physiologically impossible for most conventional diets to actually accomplish what they claim to do. This might seem like a big claim initially, but based on what customers and reviewers say, he backs it up.

Venuto’s program starts by setting up the four pillars of his diet program. The first pillar is to lose fat and to do so permanently, not temporarily. The second is to avoid wrecking your metabolism, as many fad diets will do. And the third and fourth pillars are to avoid the use of drugs and supplements-and instead to achieve all of the fat loss naturally.

So how does Venuto claim to possess these weight loss secrets? He says that his method comes from 14 years of study, trial and error, and experimentation during his body-building career. Since he was in the industry, he knows what other body-builders and models did to build muscle and burn fat.

As far as his customers are concerned, this is all true. With tens of thousands of copies of his book sold, it is clear that Venuto’s program has been a success. Providing further evidence, his salespage is littered with testimonials and before-and-after pictures from his customers.

In the end, what will his product accomplish for you? It will unlock the important information you need in order to build muscle while losing fat. It will also tell you how to bust through weight loss plateaus that appear to be permanent. And the best part of it all, is that it won’t tell you to do it by using drugs, supplements, or bogus, scientifically-questionable schemes. It might seem like a dream come true, but in reality, it’s just sound advice.

In short, “Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle” is one of the more credible fat loss regiments available on the market right now. If you’re looking for a good way to shed the pounds naturally and without harming your metabolism, then Venuto’s book may be your best choice.

Diet theories abound in the fat loss world and every “expert” insists that his/her method is the only one that really works. “The Fat Loss Bible” isn’t any different in this respect, as author Anthony Colpo advocates strongly that the only way to lose weight and keep it off is to consume fewer calories than you expend, and he backs up his claims with scientific studies.

Anthony Colpo is a Certified Personal Fitness Trainer from Melbourne, Australia. He’s been helping people get into shape and lose weight since 1991. He has a reputation as a “no-nonsense” trainer who gets great results for the people he helps, and people have come to respect his knowledge and sincerely believe that he knows what he’s talking about.

The Fat Loss Bible sets out to destroy the myths about fat loss that have been causing people failure for years and explains exactly how to finally shed every ounce of excess body fat from your body.

Here are some of the topics he covers:

* The one thing you MUST do to lose weight that most popular diets tell you isn’t necessary.

* Why one person can seemingly have success on one of the popular diet plans while another fails miserably on the same diet.

* Why the authors of most popular diet routines don’t know how to prevent long-term failure.

* How scientific evidence proves that eating a low carb diet won’t speed up your metabolism.

* What is wrong with the theory that you will lose more weight, eating the same amount of calories, if you are eating a low carb diet.

* How low-fat dieting can lead to diabetes.

* How you lose muscle tissue as well as fat on most popular diets.

* Why it’s wrong to eat your largest meal in the morning.

* Why eating a lot of carbs in the morning and less at night is utter nonsense.

* Why there is no advantage to eating several small meals a day.

* Why ketosis is not as good as they say it is.

Then, he gets down to business and shows you exactly what to do:

* How you can easily create the best weight loss diet for yourself.

* How much protein, carb, and fat you really need.

* Super foods to keep your body running efficiently.

* How to determine your perfect daily calorie intake.

* Little changes and fine-tuning you can make to make your diet more efficient.

* How to handle a weight-loss plateau.

* What to do about cravings.

* How to get the lean, athletic look you see in the media.

* Exercises to help you maximize losing fat and build great muscles.

PROS: There is a reference in the book that lists all of the studies he cites so you can read them for yourself.

CONS: He tends to be a little technical at times and actually could probably have cited fewer studies.

When you order “The Fat Loss Bible”, you get a 100% money-back guarantee and two bonus books:

“The Truth About Weight Loss Supplements”

“They’re All MAD” – which takes to task the “metabolic advantage dogma” – that people who eat a low carb diet have a metabolic advantage over people who eat a high carb diet.

If you really think about it, it makes sense that you will lose weight if you take in fewer calories than you use each day. The Fat Loss Bible will show you, with scientific evidence, why this is true and will give you a lifestyle plan you can use to have the perfect body and good health you deserve.

If you type the keyword phrase “diet for weight loss” in the Google search box it will return over 1,000,000 results. Since probably about half of all Americans are on a diet at any given time, it makes sense that there would be so many results for weight loss diets.

There are so many diets out there – low fat, low carb, low calorie, raw food, protein, cleanse, Weight Watchers, Over-eaters Anonymous, Atkins, Jenny Craig, Slim Fast… the list goes on and on and on. And each diet plan is adamant that their program is the only one that will work and give you lasting, lifestyle-changing, results.

You can buy book after book, program after program. If you visit your local bookstore, odds are that you will find a new batch of “diet” books on the shelves each month, if not more often.

Dr. Frank B. Smoot has a different point of view. He maintains that the ultimate weight loss book is the Bible.

Dr. Smoot’s program doesn’t focus specifically on what to eat, how much to eat, or when to eat. He proposes that you have to change your mindset, and get rid of, once and for all, your “limiting” beliefs. These are holding you back from making your body a perfect “temple”, as God intended it to be.

Having been a student of limiting beliefs and how they affect our lives, I can understand why this would be a very important element in weight loss, as well as in developing a positive self-image.

Limiting beliefs are “programs” that run through our minds in a loop. These can be from words we were told as a child by parents, teachers, the government, and other figures we perceived as “authority.” After hearing these things enough times, we incorporate them into our subconscious and they become truths for us. An example would be, if your Mother told you, “All of the people in our family are chubby.” If you heard this enough, you would believe that you were “destined” to be chubby and no amount of dieting would succeed if you could not let go of this limiting core belief.

You can find out all the information for Dr. Smoot’s program at Weight Loss Gods Ways.

He teaches you that by renewing your mind you will gain the power to change your life, and your body, for once and for all.

In addition to his program, he offers a free mini-ebook called “Christian Weight Loss Fundamentals” to explain to you the tremendous power of God’s solution for weight loss.

His 7-week program includes a 208 page ebook with 87 custom exercises (not physical)that you read and follow each day, as well as over 200 scriptures. The best method is to do one day at a time… don’t skip ahead! Work the exercises and then move on.

Weight loss tips and programs come a dime a dozen but this one is more unique than most.

If you’re like most people trying to lose weight, you have tried a wide variety of diets. At a minimum, you’re probably tried the Atkins Diet. You may have also tried the South Beach Diet; or any number of generic fat-cutting, carb-cutting, or calorie-cutting diets.

You may have also attempted diets that claimed to do something new. Realizing that the masses had grown weary of carb-cutting and fat-cutting approaches, perhaps they suggested that you only eat a number of really strange and specific foods. These miracle foods, they claim, will do all of the hard-work, so that you don’t have to.

Of course, you’ve probably also done exercise routines. You’ve gone to the gym, you’ve purchased in-home fitness machines, you’ve tried weight lifting, and you’ve tried jogging.

And, not surprisingly, none of these techniques worked for you in the long run. Either the technique was too difficult to sustain; or you simply didn’t see the results within a reasonable amount of time.

Well, if you’re feed up with everything you’ve tried so far, then you may want to consider “Fat Loss 4 Idiots” (FL4I). In brief, this diet has three goals: 1) to be simple; 2) to generate results fast; and 3) to be sustainable in the long run.

For starters, it makes a big claim: that you can lose 9 pounds in only 11 days. And while it doesn’t argue that other weight loss programs, such as Weight Watchers and Jenny Craig don’t work, it claims that its regimen gets faster results and is equally-sustainable.

So what does FL4I claim you’re doing wrong? Not surprisingly, it wants you to eschew low-carb, low-fat, and low-calorie approaches to weight loss. In fact, it claims that the amount of calories you eat will make no difference at all, since your metabolism will simply shift to burn fewer calories per day if you cut down on your intake.

Additionally, FL4I claims that no exercise is required whatsoever. In fact, it blatantly says that people don’t get fat because they don’t exercise. Rather, they get fat because they don’t consume the right amounts of food at the right times.

What fat loss for idiots claims you should do is simple. First, they start by explaining that your body releases fat-burning and fat-storing hormones after you eat. And if you can only decrease the amount of fat-storing hormones released and increase the amount of fat-burning hormones released, then you can lose weight-and fast.

Apparently, the entire diet program is based around this premise. From there, they go on to claim that massive fat loss can be achieved in two steps. First, you need to increase the amount of meals you eat above 3 per day. And next, you need to be sure that you ensure that the composition and timing of those meals is carefully-crafted according to their “calorie shifting” method, which is designed to trick your body into burning more fat.

Now, at a first glance, the story sounds plausible. However, if you try to learn more about the product creator, things begin to look fishy. No matter where you look, you will not be able to find out who created the diet and whether or not that person has any credentials or even a weight loss story of his own.

Additionally, the company was given a very poor rating at the Better Business Bureau as the result of unresolved customer complaints. And furthermore, the site makes numerous claims that either aren’t true or are simply unverifiable. For instance, they claim that their own careful testing lead resulted in this “calorie shifting” method; however, the method existed prior to the product and it is not clear that the company has any means to perform such tests.

Overall, this product pitch is a tough sell. It makes some interesting and generally true claims about weight loss that might prove to be useful; however, it leaves the reader wondering whether Fat Loss 4 Idiots is truly just for idiots.

When it comes to weight loss tips would we all be better off if the master cleanse “secrets” remained secret?

From time to time, we all get hit with a nasty spell of fatigue. Maybe it’s raining too much. Maybe we’ve been eating poorly and not exercising. Maybe our consumption of processed foods has finally caught up with us, leaving us fatigued, bloated, and generally uncomfortable.

All of these things are possibilities. We’ve all been there; and we all know how it feels. But, interestingly, most of the time, we do nothing about it. We simply accept the fact that we feel out of sorts; and move on with our lives.

Unfortunately, those feelings can be a symptom of something else. They can signal that we’ve treated our bodies too poorly for too long; and finally, everything we have done has caught up with us.

Now, if you think this might be the case for you, then you may have already tried a “cleanse” style diet. You may have done something like switching to raw foods or lemonade; or some other variety of cleanse.

But what you found out pretty quickly is that the cleanse diet isn’t easy. In fact, it is virtually impossible to stay on a cleanse diet for any period of time without feeling drained and worn out, no matter how good your results appear to be.

If you listen to the author of “Master Cleanse Secrets,” Raylen Sterling, there are ways around these problems. In fact, not only can you do a cleanse diet, but you can continue on it for a prolonged period of time, over the course of which you might clean out as much as 20 pounds of waste that is lurking around in your body.

Of course, Sterling doesn’t claim to have a monopoly on the right way to do a cleanse diet. However, she does suggest that her own experiences have lead her to create a cleanse diet formula that will work well for anyone.

So what’s her secret? Well, there are several. Some of them involve the diet itself. She tells you which version of the diet works best; and why you should use that version, rather than others.

Additionally, she offers mental secrets. She tells you that most people who fail on cleanse diets do so because it simply becomes too difficult to continue. But she teaches readers many strategies that they can use to overcome cravings; and overcome the desire to stop.

Sterling also offers more practical advice. She tells readers how to create a type of cleanse diet that will not only help you to lose weight, but will also be sustainable for longer periods. Instead of leaving you famished and sick, it will give you powerful bursts of energy that will help you to get beyond not being able to eat all of the foods you desire most.

So, with all of this said, should you take the plunge and purchase the Master Cleanse Secrets? Based on what reviewers say about the product, it is useful, but ultimately says very little that you couldn’t find for free on forums. Additionally, the salespage is sloppily done and contains several spelling errors and seemingly unverifiable statements. If this is any indication of the quality of her product and research, this might not be entirely a trustworthy method.

From here, the choice is yours. If you want to try a cleanse diet, you have many options. If you want to get all of the information you need in order to get through that diet successfully in one place, then you may want to consider purchasing a copy of The Master Cleanse Secrets.
