Book description
Most people believe the secret to being skinny is eating everything in
moderation. We've heard it a million times. But this is not true. All
foods are not created equal. The secret to losing weight is finding the
foods that make you fat.
The Zero Tolerance Diet is an elimination diet. You eliminate the seven
foods most people are intolerant to for three weeks, while you eat the
right proteins, fibres, fats and vegetables. After three weeks, you
reintroduce foods, one at a time, to see which foods your body can
tolerate. It's that simple. Most people lose 5-10 pounds in the first week!
Eating in moderation and counting calories does not work. This is why
the average 30-year-old, who consumes a moderate caloric diet while
eating the wrong foods, will be ten pounds heavier by the time they
reach 40. Different foods work better for different people. With this
book, JJ Virgin will help you find the right foods for you. With details
on foods to avoid, processes for reintroducing foods, easy recipes and
tips for eating out and sustaining your success, JJ will show you how to
have Zero Tolerance for weight gain, bloating, inflammation and fatigue.
