If you want to learn about the fastest way to lose weight – and, of course, fat – then you have come to the right place. There is so much contradicting information about health and nutrition out there, that it is sometimes hard to find out what’s true and what is just marketing hype.
If you have been spending a fortune on recommended supplements and “super foods” (like I once did), but didn’t feel healthy and felt disillusioned, keep reading to discover what’s the healthiest and the fastest way to lose weight and keep it off forever!
Fastest Way to Lose Weight and Fat: Magic Formula
Perfect weight and a youthful appearance are the result of clean, waste-free cells – that is cells that are free from inorganic matter. Clean, healthy cells maintain homeostasis – the healthy state of balance in the body, which keeps us feeling well and looking great. However, for most people today, clean cells are not the norm. When waste matter from unhealthy foods and overeating gets stored in out cells, instead of homeostasis we get excess weight and sickness.
So, here is the magic formula to remember:
WASTE = WEIGHT
Waste matter in your body is the fundamental source of any excess weight that you carry. Get the waste out and you get the weight off. It’s as simple as that!
Just, imagine freeing your body of the load that weights you down, makes you feel heavy, tired, and prematurely old. Cleansing you cells of waste is the magic principle for removing your excess weight, restoring your body to your ideal weight and regaining your vitality and health.
Steps To Take If You Want to Lose Weight (Fat) Naturally and Keep It Off Forever

1. Consume at least 60% or more of your daily calories in the form of RAW FRUITS and VEGETABLES. If you want to lose weight fast, 70%, 80% or 90% is even better; 100% is best but few people can stay 100% raw diet successfully long term. The power of raw foods is not only one of the most well-known “rejuvenation” secrets of celebrities and Hollywood stars (such as Demi Moore, Pierce Brosnan, Sting, Edward Norton, Carol Alt, and many others) it is also a concept that has the potential of giving you what you’re looking for: incredible health, increased energy, and a youthful and slim body.
2. Make yourself GREEN SMOOTHIES every day. Think about the green smoothies as liquid salads. They are easier to make than juices, and take much less time to prepare and to consume than salads. Think about all the chopping and chewing you will need to do in order to eat a big bowl of greens and veggies – if you blend them with some water and drink, it only takes two minutes for the whole process! The blender will do all the chewing for you!
It’s important to become creative with blending. Experiment with various greens, fruits and vegetables, try as many combinations as possible. The possibilities are endless. I discovered so many good combos just by asking, “I wonder how this and that taste together in a smoothie?” I encourage you to do the same.
For example, try apple-celery-banana, blueberry-celery-banana, lettuce-honeydew, Romaine lettuce-strawberries-banana, pears-kale-mint, kiwi-celery-banana, spinach-banana, tomato-celery-onion-pepper-avocado, or other combination. Try adding various types of greens: lettuces, kale, parsley, spinach, and other. Add some water, blend and drink!
The best blenders to use to make green smoothies are Blendtec blenders and Vitamix. No other brand will produce such smooth results. However, both of them are quite expensive (although well worth the price - think about it as a long-term investment in your family’s health), so if you have a blender already, you may start with what you have.
3. Include RAW VEGETABLE SALADS in your diet. Even if you are drinking your smoothies, you can still enjoy your salads.
But, what is a salad, really? It’s any combination of fresh RAW VEGETABLES, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, celery, okra, zucchini and other squashes, cabbage, peppers, eggplant, etc., etc., with possible addition of fresh fruits, and small quantities of nuts and seeds. However, adding cheese, beans, chicken, tuna, eggs, mayo, commercial dressings and other ingredients, turn a salad into a tossed meal.
So if you are one of the people who live only on “salads,” and yet cannot lose weight, take an honest look at the ingredients – and proportions of ingredients – raw veggies versus everything else – of your tossed meals.
Instead of fat-laden commercial dressings, have some fun and experiment. Blend some lemon juice with avocado, or strawberries with parsley, or blend pineapple with tahini as the dressing. Other combinations you may try: pineapple-red pepper, grapefruit-tahini, strawberry-almond, oranges-bell pepper-Brazil nuts, orange-pistachio.
If you are worried that you will not consume enough fats, especially the beneficial omega 3 fats, you should know that everything we eat contains some amount of fat. In fact, a natural diet of fruits and vegetables, along with some seeds and nuts or avocado, provides the body all the essential fatty acids it needs!
4. Eat LOTS OF FRESH, RAW, RIPE FRUITS. I said before in number 1, but I feel this needs more emphasis and explanation. The human body requires fuel to operate and you must get that fuel, via calories, from somewhere. When eating a mainly raw diet, there are two main types of food that provide the energy, in calories, that we need: fruit or fat. Vegetables simply have so few calories that a person would never be able to eat enough to survive. Fat has a lot of calories but requires a lot of energy to digest. Plus the health risks associated with a high fat diet simply are not worth it when you can feel better when eating the right foods. So, the only alternative to fat is fruit. Fruit is very easy to digest, provides fast energy and is alkaline-forming. Fruit is a way to obtain simple carbohydrates which match our physiological needs. We must stop eating mostly acid diet, and consume more alkaline foods, i.e. raw fruits and veggies.
Eating fruit as the basis of our diet is new and often people fail to realize how much fruit it takes to provide energy for an entire day. Eat enough fruit to meet your calorie needs - which means eating a LOT of fruit by most people’s standards. Allowing fruit to predominate in your diet makes succeeding in this weight loss plan easier than any other approach to eating. To develop the healthiest and sanest relationship with food, and in order to stick with a dietary plan that will work for you for the rest of your life, have all the fruit you care for to eat for breakfast, lunch meals and snacks. Even your vegetable meals should begin with as much fruit as you like, until you are certain that you will not crave sweets at the end of the meal.
If the idea of eating such large quantities of raw fruits and vegetables seems daunting, and you cannot imagine yourself ever getting even close to 60%, let alone 80 or 90%, there are many books and resources available on the internet and in bookstores, that can help you reach your goal. Keep in mind, that not all raw-based diets are created equal (some, for example, recommend you limit consumption of fruits, having you consume excessive amounts of fatty foods instead). One program that I can recommend you try, is The Raw Secrets by Frederic Patenaude. It is one of the most complete books on living on an optimal raw food diet for weight loss and better health.
5. Make yourself RAW VEGETABLE and FRUIT JUICES. This is another tasty way to add more fresh fruits and vegetables to your diet. Raw juices, especially green juices, are vital. A juicer separates the juice from the fiber of the fruits and vegetables leaving you with only the pure organic water. This organic water that is extracted from plants contains all of the vitamins, minerals, and enzymes, that go straight to the cells to do their work, so your body will not waste energy on digestion. By juicing fruits an veggies we can consume much more of the organic water because the fiber doesn’t fill you up. Also, the juices (especially green juices) provide perfect cellular hydration and can take the place of drinking glasses of water.
There are many juicers on the market today, but the Breville juicer is probably the easiest to use when you are juicing lots of greens. Look for a juicer that extracts the pulp, as it will allow you to make more juice without having to stop to empty it. This is important, since you need to be juicing a lot of greens.
I used to do quite a lot of juicing, however, since I bought my Vitamix and started blending green smoothies, I noticed that I have been juicing less and less. Green smoothies have numerous benefits for human health AND are easy to prepare (especially the cleanup is much faster).
6. Be active and exercise. Try walking, running, weight lifting, yoga, jumping rope, boxing, or any other exercise program that you like. You don’t need any special equipment or even gym membership to do that. If you don’t want to spend any money, start with walking 20-30 minutes a day. It’s also important to some weight bearing exercises. There are many exercises that you can do that use your own body weight - squats, lunges, presses. Eventually, though, you should add some weights to your routine. If you never worked out with free weights, think you are too old, too young, too fat to start, or whatever, read “Old broads: the golden years of pumping iron“, “No fat chicks” and other articles on the www.stumptous.com blog.
To add variety to your workouts - and make them more fun, you may want to invest in some basic exercise equipment. Get a mini trampoline to keep you moving when watching tv. Get a bike - ride it every day. (If the weather is bad, you might get yourself a bike trainer, such as one of the fancy Kurt Kinetic bike trainers or Minoura bike trainers, or just a cheap, second-hand stationary bike that you may find on craiglist). The important part is to start moving. If you need some motivation, get yourself a Bodybugg or Gowear Fit armband. The point is to start moving. It will get easier with time - I promise.
7. Listen to your body. Don’t eat if your are not hungry. Have a piece of fruit, a small raw vegetable salad, a glass of raw juice or a glass of water. However, don’t put up with hunger pains either. Far too many people place their meal times around the clock. It is much healthier to place your meals around your hunger in the same way that children do, and pay less heed to the clock. Also, don’t feel like you have to finish eating everything on your plate, even after your hunger has been fully satisfied.
