Clean & Lean Diet [antikvár]

NTRODUCTION I would like to start by saying thank you to everyone who has supported this book. It has been passed from sisters to daughters to husbands to brothers to friends and I am so grateful to all of you. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to change your life. When I wrote the first Clean & Lean book and it quickly became a bestseller worldwide, it was proof that my Clean & Lean philosophy can work for you. It has worked for hundreds of thousands of people all over the world from all walks of life - from workaholics to world travellers, to parents who have to hold down jobs while looking after children and running a home - and many have written to tell me how this book has changed their life. Clean & Lean can work for anyone. It's easy and achievable and I'm sure it will work for you. First up, here's what you need to know: you deserve a happy, healthy and fulfilled life. It may sound strange, and it breaks my heart, but many of us don't believe we deserve this. However, once you understand that you do, every choice you make to be healthy stops being e batde. Imagine that! Any transformation that happens in your body, happens in your mind first. I want you to let go of shame and guik and change the conversation you have with yourself Be kind, be forgiving and give yourself a powerful platform from which you can make these beautiful transformations. Remember, beautiful isn't how you look, it's how you feel. I think you're amazing for picking up this book, and it's about time you thought so too. Clean & Lean is based on self-acceptance and self -love. Once you have this, the rest is easy. Now, here's the good news: your body really, really wants to be slim. It wants to be lean and light, strong and energised, simply because that's the way it's designed to be - lean and heakhy is its natural state. Don't believe the myth that the human body clings on to fat. It doesn't - because it knows that's not the way it functions best. However, when you eat or drink processed foods, alcohol, bad fats and refined sugar your body becomes overloaded with toxins. It's these toxins, and not your body, that cling on to the fat. 8 CLEAN & LEAN DIET Your health and happiness are important, so stand strong. But if your body looked the way it should - lean and light - you'd feel pretty amazing. People think it is normal to wake up feeling tired and grumpy, it's not. It might be common, but it certainly isn't normal. Normal is waking up feeling clean and lean, rested, energised and ready to take on the day. When you get Clean & Lean you won't need sugar to help you function in the morning and you won't get that crashing tiredness in the afternoon that only more coffee or a chocolate biscuit can (briefly) keep at bay. Instead, you'll wake up after a good night's sleep, feeling refreshed. Your energy levels will be high, as will your concentration levels, sex drive and mood. So your job now is to make the choice to take action and stick to it. And I'm going to show you how to do it: how to eat, how to exercise and how to ensure that you stay motivated. First off, it's important to understand that your weight and health are not separate issues. Being overweight is a symptom of being unhealthy. Focus on your health and the weight will drop off. You will also need to learn the difference between an excuse and a reason. Be brutally honest: if you really want something you'll find a way to get it. You must believe you can do this (you can, I know you can). It doesn't matter how often you have failed in the past - your past does not equal your future. What matters now is focusing on what you want, identifying what you need to get it and taking consistent action. Your health and happiness are important, so stand strong. Create a support system for yourself. Ask your friends and family for help; if they choose not to encourage you, they may not be the best people to be around right now. You don't have to follow every single rule religiously but stick wholeheartedly to those you can manage and you'll be blown away by the results. Enjoy your food, enjoy your life, tell someone that you love them, forgive yourself for everything and get on with being an inspiration and the beautiful person that you are. Today. So now read on, follow each easy step and - like thousands before you - watch your body transform. I promise you, this works!
