Reader Question - Eating

I sent out a newsletter a while back on how eating for fat loss doesnt have to be a nightmare full of doom and gloom like some people make it out to be. Well, I got a few responses to newsletter so I did an audo of the actual article, a few questions and comments from an FLS member as well as my two cents.

It’s all good stuff to know.

Here is the link for the Eating for Fat Loss Audio

Fat Loss And The Stuck Scale

Ever start to workout and diet and then notice the scale isn’t moving? So did LJ, so he dropped me a line and asked a question…just like everyone should on FLS when they need to know something! As well, here is the first trial of the adjustable excel diet program I am trying to create. It’s excel so download at own risk (I dont know why I have to say that). Give me some feedback and I’ll keep adding foods and then you will be able to pull them into your own custom diet plan once it’s done. Here is the link.

I’m doing cardio every day 6 days a week and weight training (intense for my level) 3 days a week this week I started berardi 5 day plan and I’m starting to get a little turkey neck is that good or bad LOL!! But the most important thing is that I’m clean and that feels great. One more thing after the five days should I just start from day 1 again on berardis diet
