Lose weight by enjoying your food

July 5, 2010 By Brad Pilon

Here's a great way to lose weight: Stop and actually enjoy your food. Taste it. In today's busy life there are far too many chances for us to eat, then 2 minutes later wonder where our food went. On more than one occasion I've made a cup of tea, and drank it while playing/chasing/entertaining my kids, only to then go looking for my cup of tea. All I ever find is … [Read more...] about Lose weight by enjoying your food

Weight Loss, Fat Money

May 18, 2010 By Brad Pilon

It always amazes me when I think about how the weight loss has turned into an "industry". And, despite what we may be led to believe this is nothing new. The weight loss industry has been alive and profiting since AT LEAST the late 1800's . You don't need to look any further than the story of Bernarr Macfadden as told in "Mr. America" for proof that NONE of this is … [Read more...] about Weight Loss, Fat Money

Brad Pilon is a Broken Record…

May 10, 2010 By Brad Pilon

I wonder if your ever going to run out of ideas as to how to say the same thing over and over again??? This was a comment that was left on my blog over the weekend. It didn't make me mad, because quite frankly..it's a fair statement. My message is a simple one: Eat Less, workout, don't stress as much. Yet here's the deal...Here's the reason why I have to repeat myself. … [Read more...] about Brad Pilon is a Broken Record…

The Fourth Macronutrient

May 21, 2008 By Brad Pilon

It's Wednesday and I'm already looking forward to the weekend. I have spent almost all of my morning answering e-mail questions that did nothing but reaffirm my belief that obsessive compulsive eating is continuing to dig its claws into the North American "healthy lifestyle" (the opposite of what I suggest in Eat Stop Eat). I received two different emails about two very … [Read more...] about The Fourth Macronutrient

Why we hate the BMI

A new study adds to the growing evidence that an elevated BMI increases the risk of a heart attack in otherwise healthy people. In what has been called the largest study of its kind (data on over 500,000 people) researchers classified participants based on their body mass index (BMI), calculated as weight (kg) divided […]

How Many Calories can you Burn in a day?

Have you ever stopped to think that there might be an upper-limit to how many calories you can burn in a day? Basically a ‘ceiling rate’ at which we can burn through calories? Probably not, but don’t worry… I did for you! I’ve heard rumors of people eating well over 10,000 calories during a single […]

Reverse Taper Intermittent Fasting

The concept of the Reverse Taper Diet is still one of my favorite ideas. Without getting too technical, the concept is that you should be in your largest calorie deficit (eating the least amount of food) at the beginning of your diet, when you have the most fat to lose and thus the most fat […]

Fasting for Weight Loss – Setting the Record Straight

Paleo eating and vegan eating are the EXACT SAME THING. This is why any and all research on Paleo diets can be used for Vegan diets, and vice versa. It’s also why any personal experiences people have had with a Vegan diet can be directly applied to what you will probably experience with the Paleo […]

Anabolic Fasting – The Natural Evolution of Eat Stop Eat

Since 2007 Eat Stop Eat has always been a method of losing fat that involved one or two 24 hour fasts per week. For almost 2 decades now, Eat Stop Eat has stood the test of time as a highly effective style of eating that has been able to help so many people lose weight […]
