INTRODUCTION
Living Lean is an easily adapted approach to enhancing your health and wellness while leading a busy life. I’m not going to waste your time with hundreds of pages dedicated to terminology and definitions in an attempt to prove validity while hiding behind science. It’s not necessary.
I simply tell you what works.
It amazes me how many diet plans are thrust onto the market each year that claim they’re going to save the world - that is, until the next plan comes out. The people who swear by a diet today may lose 40 lbs. in a month, but three months from now most will have gained it back and then some. Just take a look around.
The title of this book is The Dolce Diet: Living Lean , but this is not a diet.
Living Lean promotes a healthy lifestyle based on the practices and principles of longevity science that I use with today’s top athletes. I won’t advise you to drive yourself crazy counting every single calorie, nor will I advise you to universally exclude healthy food groups you already enjoy.
Here’s why: Those techniques don’t work.
But wait, you might say. Those techniques do work. What if I consume fewer calories than I expend? Won’t I lose weight? Or, what if I stop eating all grains? I’ll lose weight then, right?
You may lose weight for a few days, maybe even a few weeks, but soon enough the large majority of us simply cannot sustain that type of deprivation and eventually fall off the fad diet wagon.
Living Lean is proudly based on ideals derived from my personal experiences, observations and continued results with the world’s most recognized athletes. I’m thrilled to share them here, so you can immediately begin leading a healthier life at your own pace - one positive choice at a time.
