Transcript

One of the greatest battles I fought in my youth was with those extra pounds. Don't get me wrong, I wasn't extra fat, but I was overweight with an excess of 22 pounds. I studied techniques and principles, I follow the few diets and even exercise schedules. I tried a lot of stupid stuff and nothing worked. There was a lot of information out there on this topic. So in time, I found something that suited me, the hackers diet, the main idea was to count calories and to never exceed a limit.

Now, with all the modern information regarding dieting, this may not seem that reasonable or healthy, but in 2006, I thought it was a great idea. I wrote in a table the calories of all the foods in the fast foods around my college campus. I still have the Excel file. Perhaps some might not agree with this weight loss method. But for me, it The result was there. It worked.

I lost 22 pounds myself First great victory. There was nothing else I realized, the world is full of information. You can find advice about everything, even pieces of information that contradict each other. dieting, like exercising existed for thousands of years, and no one book will help you make the radical changes that you need. Instead, choose one of the diets that you would enjoy and do the first step. A journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step Confucius, then the next and the next one until you see the first results.

If those results are positive, continue, you're on the right track. If they are negative, do what entrepreneurs do when their idea doesn't sell, change strategy, or in your case, change the diet, choose a direction and follow it. You'll never win unless you play the game. Homework. Yes, today we have homework but it will be short and sweet. Choose a healthy meal from The Internet that can be done in five to 10 minutes.

The next time you go shopping for groceries, buy the ingredients for that meal. That's it homeworks done. You don't have to cook the meal, you just have to buy the groceries. After that. It's up to you if you cook it or not. Thank you and have a great day.
