What is a Hybrid Liquid Diet?
Very simply, some of the calories I consume are in Liquid Form
and some are from Solid Food. This is a much easier method to
reset my gut microbiome and lose weight more sustainably.
What
do you consume on your diet?
My diet is ultimately a combination of modern proven weight loss
strategies: Metabolic Boost, Liquid Diet, Caloric Restriction,
and Intermittent Fasting.
I eat 6 small meals per day:
2 Meal-Replacement Shakes (broken up into 4 small shake meals)
and 2 "Solid Food" Meals = Total of just over 1200 calories per
day (I try to keep it under 1300).
3/4 to 1 Gallon of Water
See my Schedule Page
for a complete hourly breakdown
Where can I find the
meal-replacement shakes you drink?
Those who have followed
my Season 2 journey know that I have been searching for
the perfect gut health shake. That search is over. Supergut
has blown away the competition. During my first weight
loss journey, I, regretfully, promoted a shake full of
chemicals (it was 2009 and no one knew any better). I'm
over the moon that I have attracted the PERFECT
shake for our Microbiome Makeover Journeys. This is a
shake specifically formulated for your gut health. I couldn't
be more thrilled!
Why
am I so excited about these shakes?
1. It is THE ONLY meal-replacement shake
clinically proven to boost gut health.
2. It is packed with prebiotic fiber (nature's Ozempic).
3. The variety of flavors taste sensational.
4. This company is Black Owned. Click

For my two solid food meals,
I spend about $5-10 per meal. This is more than most of you reading
this will spend because I require red meat. Black women are 2-3
times more likely to suffer from iron-deficient anemia. For my
dietary needs, I require the heme iron from red meat to keep my
anemia in check, and red meat is expensive. Everyone please get
your blood work done and talk to your doctor about your specific
dietary needs.
Regarding
Supplements
I am very passionate about and highly convinced this is the key
many dieters and health-focused individuals are missing. I will
post an entire series on the supplements I'm taking that you guys
can follow on my Supplements Page.
I also take a variety of Probiotics
and Prebiotics. I'll explain why I'm taking each
and provide a review of how each are personally working for me
in my Supplements Series.

Sounds
great, but what if I have the urge to chew?
Are you kidding me? That's why I planned the two meals! I foresaw
my need to chew, people! Those of you who can go all-liquid
are my heroes! Hell to the No!
Don't
people on liquid diets gain it all back?
LOL... 95% of ALL dieters gain
it back! It does not matter how you lose it!
As I stressed over and over, you need to have the right mindset
to prevent regaining your weight. Oprah did a liquid diet...
gained it all back. Oprah did a slow, hard-way diet... gained
it all back. Kirstie Alley was PAID
MILLIONS to do a hard-way, slow diet... gained
it all back. A very SMALL percentage of people do liquid diets.
Thus, that 95% figure is more representative of people who do
hard-way, slow diets... and guess what... they have
a 95% failure rate! If you believe in doing it the
"Hard Way," you are in luck; there are plenty of shows for you
on Youtube!
Why
is your way working?
1. Flushing your system on a liquid diet -- I drink 2 Shakes
(divided into 4 servings) + 3/4 to 1 Gallon of Water
2. Constant liquid consumption speeds up your metabolism &
flushes out toxins
3. The shakes provide a controlled calorie count.
4. New research shows eating fat burns fat (takes over 10 years
for "new research" to become conventional)
5. Eating more often speeds up your metabolism
6. Exercising in the morning & evening boosts your metabolism
7. All that liquid protein boosts your metabolism
8. The Super Foods and Vegetables in these shakes build up your
gut microbiome.
9. Water/Liquid aids in assimilation of all those nutrients 10. People on Meal-Replacement Diets Lose
& Keep Off Substantially More Than Those on Self-Directed
Diets And It's High-Protein Diets FTW! https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/11/101124171536.htm
Why
not just keep that calorie count and eat regular food, not shakes?
I keep emphasizing the liquid portion of the diet is crucial
in it not "taking forever!" There is a reason why liquid diets
are so much more fast working than solid food. Liquid Nutrition
is the same food, but in a more bioavailable form. Your body
is not going to hold onto its fat reserves as long as it is
receiving that nutrition. The liquid is key in the speed of
the weight loss. It's flushing out the toxins and at the same
time delivering nutrition (think of it like a water fast on
steroids!). This is why doctors put patients on a liquid diet
when they need to get that weight off quickly to prepare for
surgery. They don't put them on low calorie solid food! LOL
They put them on liquid for a reason. Liquid Diets work fast.
That's why I selected a Liquid Diet. I am the ImpatientDieter!

Why
eat so many times each day?
To boost my metabolism. Eating few meals a day triggers
your body's starvation response. Consuming less meals turns
you into a fat-storing, binge-seeking slug. Eating many
meals throughout the day energizes you and your metabolism.
Do your own research. Here's a link to start you off: https://how-to-burn-fat.info/eat-more-often-to-burn-more-fat
Why
such high protein consumption?
Protein boosts your metabolism for weight loss, encourages fat
loss, and preserves lean muscle. I get more than the RDA.
We will discuss this on a future episode of "The Easy
Way Show!" WOOOOOO!
Do your own research. Here's a link to start you off: https://www.bodybuildingforyou.com/bodybuilding-supplements-guides/fat-loss-tips-4.htm
Couldn't you drink any protein shake? NOOOO! A protein shake is a supplement
shake. You need a meal-replacement shake. You
are replacing meals; thus, you need a meal-replacement shake.
Talk to your doctor about meal-replacement shakes. Your typical
supplement shake is designed for athletes to
enhance their performance and GAIN weight. A meal-replacement
shake is formulate to provide you the vital nutrients and vitamins
your body requires to healthily function
correctly. Feeding your body the nutrients it needs is
not only vital to your health, but crucial in your body not
feeling deprived and holding on to its reserves for survival.
You get ONE life. You need
to value it; it is irreplaceable! Again, discuss this
with your doctor! Don't email me! My site is not medical
advice to you. My site and youtube channel showcase what I did
and used to lose weight. I cannot offer advice to you.
Why
didn't you drink Wal-mart Shakes?
Please, y'all know I'm a Wal-mart Warrior! I love Sam. But this
is the one time he slipped... on those shakes... hmmm...
OK, Slimfast (and the Walmart version) do not work (as fast)
for a few reasons:
#1 They taste like sh!#. We are dieters for a reason. We like
things that taste good. Those shakes do not. I'm not going to
be committed to something that does not taste good (and neither
are you).
#2 Not as many essential vitamins and minerals (we want to make
sure we're running our machine at top-notch to burn off that
weight).
#3 They're way too high in carbs, way too low in protein. Compare
the nutritional information of a Slimfast Shake vs. Soul Shaxe: Slimfast Chocolate Shake Nutrition Information Soul Shaxe Nutrition Information
You know we need high protein
to preserve our muscle. But, we actually haven't talked about
carbs. I always think these things are common knowledge because
I know them, but let me break it down real quick. Your
body burns carbs for energy before it begins burning fat. If
you are consuming a bunch of carbs (sugar), your body has to
burn all of those off before it starts burning fat. Look it
up, google it so you can understand. That's the basis of Atkins.
That's how Atkins works (cutting carbs really low so the body
only has fat to burn for energy--its second energy source).
If you are literally
drinking a bunch of liquid carbs... liquid carbs...
uhh-uhh, people! No, this doesn't sound like Impatient
Dieting to me. We need to discuss that whole calorie is
a calorie is a calorie horsesh!#. It's not true.
Protein vs. Fat vs. Carb process differently. https://bodybuildingforyou.com/bodybuilding-supplements-guides/fat-loss-tips-4
Also if you have some degree
of insulin resistance (which many people 40 - 50 lbs
or more overweight do), your body cannot
break down carbs. The carbs you consume do not
get used for energy. The carbs do not get to your cells.
The carbs go straight to fat storage, and they impede
your body from burning the fat that it is already carrying.
Your doctor can order blood work to ensure you don't
have insulin resistance. If you do, you need to stay
away from carbs until you get your weight down and your
body re-learns how to break them down.
Watch this amazing lecture by Nutrition Ninja,
Tom Naughton, where he cites this study in which fat mice STARVED
to death WITHOUT burning their body fat due to
the body's insulin response.
OK, so here's what
you need: -- a meal-replacement
shake (so you get all your nutrients)
-- with low carbs (so your body quickly
burns through them and goes straight to it's stored fat for
energy)
-- with high protein (so you preserve
your lean muscle)
-- that does not taste like gym socks
(Sorry Sam and Slimfast... and Optifast!)
But yes, those shakes
have too many carbs. That's why they don't work (as
fast). These organic meal-replacement shakes have high protein
and low carbs. So it's basically like "Liquid Atkins".
And on the subject of carbs: Unless you are going to have a
very physical routine (at least during your weight loss phase)
you need to cut the carbs. I eat a varied amount
of additional carbs with my solid meals to support my exercise,
but if you are NOT going to have a very active
routine, your doctor will most likely advise you to take even
my small amount of additional carbs out. Talk to your doctor!
Anyway, we'll discuss it soon on "The Easy Way Show!"
Why
do you eat carbohydrates at all?
You need them to support your physical activity. This
is a topic we haven't discussed. I will be discussing
this topic on a future episode. However, as stated above, many
people 40-50 lbs or more overweight have some degree of insulin
resistance. Therefore, you need to discuss with your
doctor if consuming carbs is appropriate for you at this time.
You can re-incorporate them once you have released some weight
and your body has re-learned how to break them down. But
you will be hitting your head against a wall if you are insulin-resistant
and cannot break down the carbs. They will just
be stored as fat... and your efforts will be frustrated. Do
your own research on insulin resistance. https://www.fao.org/docrep/w8079e/w8079e0n.htm https://www.womentowomen.com/insulinresistance/default.aspx
1200
calories doesn't sound low enough?
Extremely low calorie diets decrease your metabolism; I wanted
to energize mine. Because most dieters don't/can't exercise
on them, they typically have the opposite result - with mostly
fluid and muscle loss. Because your body has lost muscle,
when you gain the weight back, there is less muscle to burn
it off, which means ultimately dieters get fatter and fatter
with each diet.
Do your own research. Here's a link to start you off: https://www.dietwords.com/low_fat.shtml
Why
do you drink so much water?
To burn fat, your fat cells have to be free of the excess water
and toxins you are retaining right now. If you're the
type of person who hasn't been drinking enough (*raises her
hand*), your body retains it -- a lot of it -- as a survival
response. Drinking water speeds up your metabolism, flushes
out impurities, and aids in your weight loss.

Why
don't you have loose skin and stretch marks?
My
MSM video addresses your most Frequently Asked Question:
the issues of loose skin and stretch marks and how I prevented
getting them. The answer is MSM. Sulfur is called nature's
beauty mineral because it keeps your hair glossy and smooth
and your complexion clear and youthful. It slows down
the aging process and is vital for the production of collagen,
which maintains elastin in the skin (sulfur deficiency
will produce scars). But I have started shooting both
a Skin Tightening
& a Scar Diminishing Series.
Please visit my new DMSO & MSM Page
and watch my introductory video for a brief discussion
on the science of how both of these miraculous gifts from
nature benefit your skin and body. You can also read how
I personally am taking them orally and topically and follow
my progress in this video series. Also view the video
playlists by physician, Dr. Stanley Jacob, and Nutrition
Ninja, Daniel Vitalis.
Is that the only reason you're so successful?
Cynics would say yes...Those
who think like me would say no! I keep emphasizing that
my thinking is different. Most people don't have "the
ears to hear" that. I am trying my hardest to get
people to realize the power to create their "goal body"
is within them. Detach yourself from your weight,
the messages of defeat you expose yourselves to everyday,
and stop limiting your vision to the things you "can see."
As Dr. Dyer puts it, "...if you're limiting yourself only
to things you can see, why are you paying your electric
bill?" Now I don't want to minimize the SuperGut, the water,
the exercise, speeding up metabolism... all of that works
together... the faith and the deeds work together! LOL
Please watch my New Type Z Success Series.
I share 4 Quick, Simple Practices you can do every day
to help you achieve your goals. While I believe all of
these practices can be incorporated into anyone's schedule,
for those who complain about time, you absolutely can
incorporate listening to Subliminal Messages while you
sleep. They are a success tool used by everyone from Stephen
Spielberg to Tiger Woods to Tony Robbins to ImpatientDieter!
And listening to them while you sleep is as Type Z as
it gets. Do they work? Probably a little too well! [Click Here To Read My Hilarious Friend's
Warning.] I listen to these 3 messages:
Are
you doing anything else for your body?
I believe that the protein and fat I am consuming have contributed
to my non-hanging, tight skin. Fat and protein are vital
for skin. I get in morning and evening exercising. I do
a lot of visualization, meditation, and most of all... I believe I create my own reality. Visit my
Beauty Dilemmas Page for a discussion of
how MSM can help you tighten skin and diminish stretch marks.
I do not have severe stretch marks, but I do have tiny ones.
Many women report that they formed during puberty. I honestly
don't recall; I certainly was not vain enough to notice back
then; I was too busy being a nerd. But I am trying several topical
aids to diminish them. In addition, I am loving all these testimonials
about compression suits and I am learning more about which would
be more appropriate for us. After trying two other, much more
costly suits, the third time has got to be the charm! I will
wear one compression suit to work out in and
another suit to sleep in. This is my final
attempt at "Type Z Body Toning!"
MY PSA: MAKE
YOUR HOME A NO-SHOE ZONE
We walk through the filth of the world: Sidewalks, Subways,
Truck Stops, Prisons... hey maybe you have a relative
to visit, I don't know... if you don't remove your shoes,
you are tracking all that back into your home. Just as
Oprah is raising our consciousness about the need to make
your car a No-Phone Zone, I would like to raise your consciousness
of the need to make your home a No-Shoe Zone. Tomorrow,
look down while you are walking, and note all the muck
you walk through... so you're going to track all that
back in your house and wallow around in it... NOOOOO!
So the moment you walk through your door, please remove
your gross, disgusting, vile, revolting, germ-laden, parasite-ridden,
filthy friggin shoes! Thank you!
