Eat Some Damn Broccoli!

The other day my co-worker asked me if I knew anything about Forskohlii Root extract.  He said he had heard something about it being a great supplement for fat-loss.  Before I could even respond to the question about my knowledge of this root, I just blurted out “you don’t need a supplement, you need some damn broccoli!”  That was likely a little abrasive, and wasn’t what my co-worker wanted to hear, but it was probably the most truth I shared the entire conversation.

I don’t really know anything about that root extract, but what I do know is that there truly is no supplement (pun intended) for eating lots of lean meats and veggies.  You can try all the fat burning pills, or metabolic enhancing extracts, or weight loss shakes you want, but the fact is that none of them will work as good as a clean diet based in meat and veggies!

I get that we all want convenience, but really eating meat and veggies is relatively convenient!  Nutrisystem and Jenny Craig and the like made a killing selling a system of counting points, which was more convenient for people than counting calories.  I’m suggesting however that you don’t need to count anything, just eat meat and veggies!  Granted, when you’re trying to get to bodyfat percentages under 12%, you probably will need to start counting again, but if you have significant amounts of fat to lose you don’t need to count anything.

So, to reiterate, the KISS (keep it simple stupid) method of eating for fat-loss is as easy as eating some damn broccoli!  There’s really no secret, no pill, no shake…  If the majority of your calories don’t come from lean meats and veggies, then that is the most likely culprit for your extra bodyfat.  If you want to lose that bodyfat (and get healthier than you’ve likely ever been), make sure that the vast majority of your daily intake comes from lean meats and veggies.  It’s really that easy folks…
