Calorie Shifting Diet - How Does It Work?

Shiftless people are generally considered undesired.

Surely, a shiftless diet also has to be undesired.

Therefore, the "Shifting Diet" must be superb :-)

You may have heard of the new diet regimen known as the "Calorie
Shifting Diet". Unlike "low-fat", "low-carb", and "low-calorie" diets,
this diet is not "low" in any respect. The focus of the calorie
shifting diet is on triggering your body's metabolism by deliberately
structuring the type of calories you ingest at what times of the day.
This method allows you to eat from all of the food groups and requires
you to eat four complete meals each day. Following this diet can yield
rapid weight loss results without leaving you to feel deprived.
While the other diets do arguably work, they typically fall into the
category of so-called "yo-yo" diets, because the method of weight loss
in those circumstances requires you to sacrifice the foods you enjoy
eating. Many people eventually give in and sabotage their diet because
of this deprivation. You can only go without bread or without fatty
foods for so long. And even if you cut down your calories, you feel
hungry throughout the day.
Take the Atkins diet for example. Yes you will lose a lot of weight
rapidly on this diet. But it is not a diet that is easy to follow.
Most people who try this diet eventually give up and some even end up
gaining all or more of the weight back, because they go on a
carbohydrate binge, after having deprived themselves of it....

With that kind of logic, you could get elected president. 🙂

Ten years without bread so far.

I don't follow Atkins precisely, but I don't find eating meats, dairy,
vegetables and fruit to be difficult to follow.

I've maintained a 50-lb loss for about 5 years now from low-carbing and
going to the Y regularly - even after I quit the Y.
