(Family Features) Conventional diet wisdom calls for avoiding carbs, having an early dinner, and avoiding eating too close to bedtime. However, strategically eating during the evening hours can actually be an effective weight loss strategy.
In fact, a plan like the one highlighted in “Always Eat After 7 PM,” written by Joel Marion, CISSN, NSCA-CPT, five-time best-selling e-book author and co-founder of the e-commerce supplement company BioTrust Nutrition, debunks popular diet myths and offers an easy-to-follow diet that accelerates fat-burning and allows you to indulge in your most intense cravings by eating the majority of your calories at night. The outlined plan features a 14-day “acceleration phase” designed for rapid results, a “main phase” when you’ll learn which fat-burning foods to eat to achieve your weight loss goals and a “lifestyle phase” to keep the weight off for good.
Conventional wisdom dictates that it’s best to avoid carbs, eat an early dinner, and never eat immediately before bed. However, Marion debunks the myths underlying traditional dieting with a simple, highly effective weight loss program allowing readers to enjoy social dinners without restriction, satisfy nighttime hunger with fat-burning sweet and salty pre-bedtime snacks, and indulge cravings with strategically timed cheat meals.
With straightforward food lists, easy-to-follow meal plans, and recipes for each phase, this can be a simpler, more enjoyable way to lose weight without feeling restricted. Consider this Coconut Curry Shrimp Rice Bowl recipe, which is taken directly from the book and combines a super carbohydrate – rice – with an ethnic flavor combination of coconut, shrimp, and curry, which can keep you coming back for more and satisfy nighttime hunger without restriction.
