Aditya,

Thanks for sharing your story.

It really is pretty simple when it comes to eating for weight loss.

And I forgot to mention one thing. The people around me, they have all sort of misconception about fasting. They think I am ‘Destroying’ my metabolism by fasting and eating stuff like Pizzas and Fasting like crazy. They all do that 6 meal thing, eat only healthy stuff like Salads, Granola Bars (Damn How much I have told, they are missing out on the good things in life) while I eat Pizzas, Chocolate Fudge and My Fridge is loaded with Ice Cream/Beer. And the difference is I have a decent abs definition and they are the pudgy fat ones

Like its said, ‘Calories In – Calories Out’. Thats all what matters!

John has nailed it! This is what I always talk about and this is what I follow!

‘Calorie In – Calorie Out’

Tagging food as ‘Good’ and ‘Bad’ is seriously so not right! It is not needed at all. Foods like Whole Foods, Veggies ‘can’ be called ‘good’ but that I think is a personal opinion. It all depends.

I am at 8% body fat. And I was 15% a year back. I have been juggling between Warrior Diet and ESE between weeks for almost 10 months now. And trust me on this, I have been eating whatever I like. I might be having a cookie/chicken wing every day for weeks, I have atleast 3 pints of beer every weekend (part of me as I am a part time/hobby photografer and I get invited to parties regularly) and I eat really normal. What I do is I go on a fast right before and right after a Feast Day (Weekends for me). In total I would fast 3 times a week. I workout 4 times a week.This is all I do, no nothing special about the diet. And I still lost weight and still losing it, maybe I go into maintenance once in a while!

This is how it works, I have noticed. I am no fitness expert but I just live by one line ‘Calories In – Calories Out’, when it comes to being lean!

Great Job John, keep em coming!

That is what I love about Brad Pilon and you, John: you guys use ESE, but you don’t preach it either. You realize that it is just another means to an end: EATING LESS. From now on i will enjoy eating food again without worrying about WHAT i am eating.

i agree with you john,
i’ve tried many diets, low carb, low fat, carb cycling etc…..i felt fats and carbs were my enemies. I train 5 days a week for 3 years, but i couldn’t see my sixpack. BUt oneday i found a great book, ESE.
i enjoy my life today. I eat what i want eat, but still see my sixpack abs. I train my body just 3 times a week, full body workout. Some people in my gym do low carb diet, low fat diet. They eat “boiled chicken breast”…but still can’t see they sixpack.

if you want see your sixpack, just eat less, eat everything that you want to eat. Enjoy ur relations with foods.

sorry for my english
