How to lose weight the lazy way... Now there's a loaded question. K.D. sure has GOOD points.1 - we can eat healthier and lose weight by making right choices, and sleep is VERY important.2 - more fat (healthy fat, like organic butter from grass-fed animals, nuts and avocadoes for example) less carbs (writer suggests cutting out all grains - but having been on the other end of health problems, I say - have organic stuff - just have less)3 - skip breakfast - well... here's the thing.From having kids I know couple of things:your energy levels drop like a hot potato if you don't do SOMETHING - ideally it would be mild exercise and a small breakfast - remember that it takes energy to burn whatever you put in your body - so you Might benefit from having just a snack instead of full blown breakfast plate like "lumberjack's plate" from Denny's.But each person is different - so while some of us need an apple in the morning to keep going til our energy drops, others will do just fine with heavy crème in their coffee - others might need a full course... = remember it's individual.What I wish this guide expanded on is the reason behind all these decisions. And possibly some more sensible ideas about exercise. I believe a lot of people - especially those in office setting - could benefit from just a walk around the block after a meal. Also they might benefit from getting up for a few minutes every 20 minutes. Since our bodies were never meant to sit 8-10 hours a day - this one thing would make a drastic change to our bodies.Another drastic idea is for people to actually look at the source where their food comes from: local food trumps imports, seasonal food trumps ... imports. Nuts, greens and colors of the rainbow are a great thing that's missing from people's daily plate.Less is more... etc... there's so much more.That is why I'm slightly peeved that this guide is so cool! but so short. I wish it had more information, and links to online content that could help people make educated decisions... etc.but all in all great start!
