Give your will power a break! It easy to lose 2 lbs per week or more by dieting only two days a week. Endocrinologist and weight Loss specialist Dr Richard Lipman relates his experience of treating hundreds of overweight patients with the 2 Day a Week Intermittent Fasting Diet. Give your will power a break! It easy to lose 2 lbs per week or more by dieting only two days a week. Despite the increased availability of healthy foods, exercise facilities, low-carb and low-fat foods, diet sodas, diet plans, literally thousands of weight loss supplements-and even weight loss prescription medication-today, more and more people are overweight. It's estimated that by 2015 approximately 2.3 billion adults will be overweight and more than 700 million obese The old dietary rules of eating low fat foods, exercising more, and not skipping meals has not made a dent in this problem. In fact, not only are there more obese people in every country in the world; they also weigh more. The average woman has gained 20 lb and the average man more than 30 lbs in the last decade. Over the last 5 years, hidden from view has been the development of a new system to lose weight-intermittent fasting. Intermittent Fasting does not mean stopping eating entirely. It means reducing the amount you eat, two days a week to 25% of normal (500 calories a day for women and 650 calories a day for men) and eating normal on the remaining 5 days a week. Dr Lipman's experience treating hundreds of his patients as well as scientific trials all over the world have shown this to be a safe, effective and rapid technique for weight loss. In fact, the scientific reports presented in Dr Lipman's 2 Day a Week Diet have shown reduced risk for diabetes, heart disease and stroke with this system. On the diet days, usually Monday and Thursday you have breakfast and dinner or lunch and a late diner. For each day of the week you fast, you lose 1 ½ lbs per day or 3 lbs. per week. The remaining 5 days you can eat what you want. If y
