Information Included in the Lean Belly Prescription

This new diet plan focuses on visceral fat, which is the adipose tissue that surrounds the internal organs.  Belly fat can be the cause of more health risks than fat stored in other places, such as your hips or thighs.

You will learn strategies that will help you transform your body without the need for spending hours at a gym.  Time, motivation, and change are big obstacles that many people have trouble overcoming when it comes to getting fit.  This book actually addresses these issues and much more.  It offers a realistic approach to losing weight and getting fit.

This diet plan is designed to help you curb those side effects that high levels of belly fat can cause, such as:

• Heart attacks
• Strokes
• Diabetes
• Sleep disorders
• And more

It consists of a list of Lean Belly laws that will guide you through the process so you can reap the benefits of meeting your weight loss goals.  These laws are not difficult and will allow you to eat what you love with small adjustments.

Lean Belly Laws:

• Eat at minimum three servings per day of calcium rich dairy products.
• Eat breakfast every day filled with protein (eggs, milk, yogurt, steel cut oats, whole wheat toast, etc).
• Switch to whole grain versions of the foods you currently eat, such as pasta, bread, rice, crackers, and cookies.
• Add in six 8 ounce glasses of water each day along with the other liquids you love.
• Switch to lean beef (if you like beef).
• Snack three times a day!  Snacks should include a 200 calories protein snack and two others in other food groups two hours before a meal.
• Include two protein powder based smoothies every day.
• Try to fit in at least two pieces of fruit and three servings of vegetables every day (veggies should include leafy greens, such as spinach, broccoli, and Brussel sprouts).
• For fiber, substitute beans two to three times a week at dinner in place of meat.
• Include healthy foods that are filling like peanut butter, avocado, olive oil, and butter.

These are simple changes that can make a huge difference in your weight loss goals.  Also included in this book are 4 weeks of meal plans and a basic workout plan.
