Weight loss is damage control

Night eating isn’t just your problem. Night eating is everyone’s problem. For most patients, 80% of their calories go in after 6pm. The magic of limiting calories after 6pm is damage control.

The truth about exercise

How to get the scale moving, if you’re stuck

Many patients who want to lose weight, absolutely, positively refuse to exercise. But if I can get you to do 3 – 20 second High Intensity Training (HIT) bursts a day, you might be able to finally get the scale moving – coupled with a low calorie, low carbohydrate diet. It amazes me how many […]

Exercise for patients who hate exercise

The amazing thing about HIT (High Intensity Training) for weight loss, is that I can generally get patients who hate exercise to do it, because it’s only 20 seconds of exertion.
