Discovered: A Powerful Method to Lose Weight Fast and Keep Your Muscle
Dr. Gregory Ellis, noted author of several cutting edge weight loss books, has opened a weight loss clinic designed to jump start your weight loss. The program creates rapid and safe weight loss.
* Men lose 4-7 pounds per week and women 3-5
* The program that Dr. Ellis is using was developed more than 20 years ago
* It’s based on research first conducted at Harvard
This research looked at the effects of a dietary weight loss regimen that was called a Protein Sparing Modified Fast.
By providing just the right amount of protein of the highest quality, weight loss consists mostly of body fat while precious muscle tissue is spared.
Both carbohydrates and fats are restricted which reduces the release of insulin from the pancreas. Insulin is a fat storage hormone and converts dietary carbohydrates into body fat.
* Helps to maintain muscle mass
* Promotes fat loss
* Tones and revitalizes skin
* Supports cellulite reduction
* Promotes vitality and energy
* Naturally suppresses your appetite
* Provides a rest for an overworked pancreas
The program uses meal replacement products including bars, soups, and powders. These can be made into delicious puddings and drinks. There’s a large variety of more than 45 gourmet foods for you to choose from each day.
For dinner you’ll consume real food such as your choice of beef, chicken, pork, or any other protein-based food. You can also eat several servings of vegetables each day and you are allowed unlimited consumption of lettuce.
The most important aspects of the program are:
* We take you by the hand, the program tells you exactly what to eat and when
* Personal coaching by Dr. Ellis and his coaches
* The foods are provided only to professional healthcare providers such as Dr. Ellis
* Dr. Ellis has an online body composition and body analysis system that he developed and you can only get this when you become a member of his clinic
* Dr. Ellis will show you your ideal weight
* You’ll learn about how to control your weight
* You’ll rapidly lose your belly fat
Why Should You Follow Dr. Ellis’s Program?
We now know that the body converts carbohydrates to body fat. Most programs today still follow the unworkable low-fat eating program which means it’s high in carbohydrates. This is bad for many reasons including the loss of muscle tissue, hunger, and rapid regain of lost weight.
Another misconception today is that there are “good” carbs and “bad” carbs. This idea is total nonsense and several of the leading weight loss plans such as Nutri-System and The South Beach Diet are based on “good” carbs and “bad” carbs.
Because the majority of medical and scientific experts still believe that fat is bad and carbs are good, people consume a large amount of sugar every day. Fruits and whole grain bread products turn to sugar in the blood and are just as bad for your health as sugar, candy, and other “junk” foods.
When you consume just 4 grams of carbs that’s like eating a teaspoon of sugar!
The program is divided into four phases and phase 1 is used until you get close to your ideal weight.
The manufacturer of the gourmet foods does not allow online sales so you’ll have to follow the program as a member of Dr. Ellis’s Weight Loss Clinic.
The costs include a one-time administration fee of $195.00 plus the cost of the food products and the supplements.
Call 610-459-0200 for more information about the program. This consultation will cost $50.00 and is payable by MC or Visa. The fee will be deducted from the admin fee when you join the program.

The Myth of Quick Weight Loss Without Diet and Exercise

Marketers Love Getting Over on People with Rapid Weight Loss and Quick Weight Loss Schemes
In the Supermarket Last Night the Magazine Cover Blared “How the Stars Lose Weight Fast”
The theme of this site and of my work is that calories count.
Also, we’re all the same — we all work the same way. In other words, human physiology dictates our function or there’d be no textbook of physiology.
The fastest way to lose weight is to eat nothing.
In the early 1900’s people flocked to Madison Square Garden to watch professional fasters sit on the main floor and eat nothing for up to 40 days. That was quick weight loss.
Fasting has been practiced for centuries in connection with religious ceremonies. Today, fasting has also become a method of protest such as against the war in Irag.
You can’t possibly lose weight any faster than by not eating or drinking.
If you want quick weight loss then do that. And that advice is absolutely FREE.
All religions have certain occasions where fasting is part of the religious practice.
One of the early pioneers in health advocacy through diet, exercise, and clear-headed thoughts was Bernarr McFadden:
- McFadden was a successful businessman and made considerable profit from health promotion
- McFadden promoted different fasting styles including no foods or drinks, juice fasting, and the use of raw milk fasting
- although fasting means the complete abstinence of food or drink, the word has been added to other styles of reduced food consumption such as juice fasting
Another Popular Quick Weight Loss Method is Juice Fasting
People have been told and believe that juicing is both healthy and slimming.
Followers of Bernarr McFadden, such as Jack LaLanne, even have infomercials today extolling the virtues of juicing.
Can we argue with Jack’s dietary practices since the guy’s 99 years old? Maybe so, since he exercises three hours each day.
Juice contains many carbohydrates, particularly fruit juice, and I’m teaching you here about the hazards of carbohydrates.
Watch out for too much juice.
The Development of the Medical Quick Weight Loss Method
In the early 1970’s, researchers promoted a new method of quick weight loss called the Protein Sparing Modified Fast (PSMF).
It had been observed that fasters, eating nothing, and juice fasters as well, lost a lot of their lean body mass (LBM). LBM is organ mass and muscle mass.
Their solution was to feed a high-protein diet of between 400-800 calories per day. They found that this program spared the loss of LBM.
These studies were the forerunners to many modern-day weight loss companies such as Medifast and others.
Of course, all these variations don’t change anything: you can only lose weight at a rate depending on the level of calorie imbalance.
OK, the PSMF is a pretty good way to lose weight faster, but not as fast as eating nothing. It reduces hunger too. That’s your second FREEBIE. But, this proves that calorie reduction dictates the rate of weight loss — nothing else.
You can’t change your metabolism either in any significant way. Sure, ephedra, green tea, and compounds such as caffeine can increase metabolism by a couple of percent.
Assuming a daily calorie burn of about 2,500 cals per day (varies with body size and activity level), these substances might lead to burning, say, 60 more calories per day.
“Not bad,” you say. And that might be true over the course of one year, but will do nothing to create a quick weight loss.
What Do We Lose When We Starve Ourselves?
Days of Semi-Starvation: 1-3 4-6 7-12
Avg. Weight Loss/Day (pounds): 1.61 1.10 .81
Fat % loss: 27 40 53
LBM % loss: 9 10 13
Water % loss: 70 50 34
One can easily see by inspecting the table that during the first 12 days of semi-starvation that water losses represent the largest portion of the weight that’s lost.
This is the basis of all the claims made by the quick weight loss charlatans.
First 3 day’s loss: 70% water. By about 22-24 days, water loss stops and so does weight loss unless you know how to do it correctly.
Can You Do It?
I’ve now explained to you the fastest ways to lose weight. You can try it. How well do you think you’ll do eating nothing, or juicing, or eating meat to the tune of just 500 calories per day?
It won’t be easy. When it’s all over, you’ll most likely regain all that you lost, and more. This response is called Post-Starvation Obesity.
You see, your body wants to stay the weight it is. After starvation and weight loss, the body becomes hyperphagic, or in less scientific terms, it enters a state of ravenous over-eating. You eat and eat and eat. Have you ever experienced this before?
And guess what, you can’t control this because it’s an extraordinarily powerful Biological drive. You can’t whip it with Willpower.
The other point is that quick weight loss methods teach you nothing about weight loss and that’s the point of my work: I’m going to teach you HOW to do it.
This is what I teach in my writing and in my programs: HOW to lose weight the right way, the permanent way. The best book of mine to teach all you need to know about weight loss, for value and facts, is Ultimate Diet Secrets lite.
