Advocare
And A New Way Of Thinking About Nutrition

Having been a Martial Artist for many years, I have constantly been looking for ways to improve the way my body utilizes food. So when I was introduced to the Advocare line of nutritional products a couple of years ago, I was ready to hear something new. What I heard was a concept that relies upon changing the way your body utilizes food. Thus was a weight loss of almost 70 pounds begun. You see, most of us have been relying on "deprivation diets" to change the weight we carry on our frames all these years. We have been convinced by countless doctors and "diet gurus" that the only way to lose weight was through consuming fewer calories, sometimes accompanied by increased physical activity, or exercise, and many times not. Then, as soon as we obtained our target weight, we resumed eating all the foods that got us there in the first place, with the concomitant increase in weight - usually back to or over the weight we started with. With the return to our "heavier" selves, we also carried a load of guilt around, which fed our lack of self-esteem. Well, guess what? We had nothing to feel guilty about! Most of these so-called weight-control programs were and are doomed to failure. They rely on depriving our bodies of the foods we crave, many times because they taste better and our metabolism is accustomed to them. A lifetime of eating the wrong foods - with our bodies reliance on them - cannot be changed simply because we wish it. The trick is to change the way our metabolism processes food. That is what the Advocare Nutrition Products help you do. They help re-educated your body to utilize the nutrition it needs and eliminate what it doesn't. Once these two factors are in the proper balance, we will naturally lose - or gain - weight to bring our body into balance. Thus the 70 pound weight loss and almost eight-inch loss in my waist. That is why I am a distributor, today, to introduce as many people to the products as are interested. I hope they enjoy my personal success. |
