PART 1:
THE DIET
RULES TO EAT BY
o
k, let’s get rid of the first three letters
here: DIE. Most people who go on diets
DIE not eating or eating tree bark or some
other disgusting food with chemicals in it.
Doesn’t that sound like fun? Not so much.
So, what are we supposed to do if we want to look
good on the beach? The answer is quite simple.
One of the best plans I’ve ever seen and I personally
have been on for over 10 years is what is
called a rotating taxonomy diet. It’s really simple
and if we were still roaming the plains like our
ancestors we would still be eating this way.
If you look at most Asian cultures they tend to
follow the seasons. They eat what is available at
that time of year. Asian medicine is almost 3,000
years old. Food, exercise and breathing can all
help heal the body and keep it healthy.
You were not meant to be overweight. It’s society,
chemicals in foods, processed food, and eating
on schedule that’s caused us to become obese.
Plus, we are more stressed out than our ancestors.
We’re not in any danger of being eaten by
wolves or sabre-toothed tigers. Yet we have these
little pocket devices we constantly have to check.
Believe it or not stress and fight or flight hormones
cause more weight gain then actually
eating.
Now that we understand that we can do something
about it. Here are my recommendations for
dropping pounds and keeping it off.
1
BREAKFAST
Just like a fire that dies down at night you will need to throw
another log on it to get it going. In the morning it’s the same
thing with your metabolism. People will squawk and say, “I’m not
hungry in the am.” That’s because your biggest meal was at 8pm
at night. You need to reverse it.
2
ROTATE YOUR FOOD
If you have eggs and toast for breakfast why not have that for
dinner instead? Better yet, how about having that turkey dinner
for breakfast. You’ll be less hungry at night. You will see me
plenty of times have buffalo burgers for breakfast with veggies.
Why not?

VEGGIES ROCK
Veggies have close-to-no calories and you need the vitamins and
minerals daily. Now your vitamin and mineral needs will change
daily as well. This is why a rotating diet is the best. It keeps your
metabolism on its toes and it’s not boring!
