This guest blog post is a transcription between fitness and nutrition authors Jayson Hunter and Jim Labadie. I have their permission to share it with you.
Jim: Hey fellas! It’s Jim Labadie and I am interviewing Jayson Hunter of GetRidofMyGutDiet.com. He’s going to tell us all about how to get rid of your fat belly and how to get rid of your beer gut. He’s going to teach you fast healthy weight loss tips for rapid weight loss.
The difference between this program and others is that it’s a really amazing system that Jayson has that helps you lose weight very quickly, but also helps you keep it off. This isn’t that BS stuff that’s floating around out there, those nonsense diets. This is the real deal. So, any of you guys out there with the big ol’ beer gut and you want to get rid of it fast, Jayson is the man to talk to. So today we’re going to go over 5 simple steps that you can take to lose that weight fast. So, Jayson, thank you for being here.
Jayson: Well, thank you for having me.
Jim: Okay, so let’s get started. What’s tip number 1? How do they lose weight fast?
Jayson: Well, a real simple one is and we’ve all been taught it, from the time we were kids from our parents, is increase your vegetable intake, more specifically your non-starchy vegetable intake, which the difference between starchy vegetables and non-starchy vegetables comes down to really just two vegetables. Corn and peas are considered starchy vegetables and pretty much ever other vegetables are non-starchy, so it’s not to hard to choose a vegetable that’s non-starchy.
The main reason is, because you want to be able to eat something that is no caloricly dense but nutrient dense and non-starchy vegetables contain a lot of vitamins and minerals. They’re a great source of fiber which is very important for helping you feel fuller longer, not encouraging you to eat 30 minutes after you eat something. You’re going to be nice and full for a long time. And, it requires more calories to burn those vegetables up because there’s more substance to them. That fiber takes a little longer to digest, so the body has to work a little harder with that and you keep your insulin levels in check which is a big one for preventing those promotions of fat storage.
Jim: Okay, so my questions on that are real quick. Where does a potato fall? I mean, most guys in there who’ve got these big beer guts, they’re probably meat and potatoes guy. So, where does a potato fall?
Jayson: A potato actually falls more in line of a carbohydrate then a vegetable.
Jim: Okay.
Jayson: So it’s more of a starch. What you’re really looking for to eat is cauliflower, broccoli, carrots, green beans, are your most common ones that people are going to eat, and then of course you can get into more of your non-common string beans, artichoke hearts, and things that are probably more of people that are vegetable aficionados or maybe grow their own gardens or live in rural areas that are more likely to have a wide variety of vegetables at their disposal.
Jim: Got it. Okay, real quick. What is insulin you mentioned insulin there? Just for those who don’t know.
Jayson: Well, insulin shuttles blood — When you eat you get sugar in your blood and your body has to get that sugar out of the blood and either use it as energy or store it for use at a later time. Insulin actually does that. When you ingest food and you get these sugars into your blood, your insulin increases to go out and get those sugars, pull them out of your blood and either, like I said, burn them for energy or store them to be used at a later time. When all of your carbohydrate glycogen levels are full, well then the only other alternative is to be stored as fat. And so, insulin tends to promote fat storage because most peoples glycogen/carbohydrate levels are usually pretty full, so the alternative is fat storage.
Jim: Gotcha. Okay, so those of us looking to get rid of our big ol’ male beer guts, we’re looking to be very careful of insulin and its response.
Jayson: You want to keep that insulin response low, which is one of the main goals.
Jim: Alright, cool. So, just to let everybody know, Jayson has a killer free e-book you can get at GetRidOfMyGutDiet.com.Its 36 foods that you can read about, with all sorts of vegetables, and all sorts of great choices fast. So, check out GetRidOfMyGutDiet.com. Alright, Jayson number 2, protein at every meal. We hear so much about protein; again, the guys are probably meat and potatoes guys. Why is it so important – how do we maybe make the transformation to just eating fatty protein sources to types of proteins that they should be eating to help them lose that gut.
Jayson: Well, like you said, men are definitely meat and potatoes type of guys so it definitely should be easy to get protein into your diet consistently, but you also do want to control the types of protein you get in. A fried chicken breast, or 18 chicken wings from Hooters, probably isn’t going to be the best source. Yes, its protein, but you are also going to pack in a lot of extra calories that you really don’t need if you’re trying to lose your gut. So, one of the things you want to do is to look for those lean protein sources. Skinless chicken breasts, lean beef and steaks, fish grilled not fried. Eggs are another good source.
You know so many people are scared of eggs but it seems more and more of the research is showing that really eggs aren’t that bad for you. They’re not the main culprit of why people are fat and have high cholesterol. Dairy is also another good source. If you like cottage cheese or yogurts or things like that, you can get in your lean protein that way as well.
