SPECIAL FAT LOSS REPORT
Top flight Australian personal trainer takes everything you've been told about fat loss, throws it in the trash, then reveals the true secrets to stripping every last ounce of unwanted fat from your body!

Dear Friend,

Are you pulling your hair out in frustration because your weight loss efforts repeatedly end in failure?

Are you sick of diet books that promise you 'effortless' weight loss, but leave you just as fat as ever?

Do you cringe when you think about the hundreds of dollars you've wasted on useless weight loss supplements?

Well, you're not alone, because...

Most people who attempt to lose weight fail miserably!

It's true!

A recent review published in the prestigious American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that Americans who lost weight gained back almost 80% of that weight within 5 years! At that point, the average initial weight loss of 14 kilograms had plummeted to only 3 kilograms! Imagine having so little to show for your efforts after 5 years!

Those who hand over their hard-earned money to join famous weight loss programs don't fare much better either! A study involving Weight Watchers participants found they lost a measly 5.3% of their initial bodyweight at 26 weeks, and after 2 years they maintained a weight loss of only 3.2%! Let's put that in better perspective: If you weigh 100 kg and need to lose 25 kg, then you'll be left with a miniscule 3.2 kg weight loss after 2 years! Needless to say...that's dismal!

And don't expect a registered dietitian to solve your fat loss problems! In the same study, those who visited a dietitian twice a week lost, on average, only 1.5% of their initial bodyweight at 6 months. After 2 years, the amount of weight they kept off amounted to ... 0%!

What about the popular diets promoted by famous weight loss 'gurus'? How do they stack up when put to the clinical test?

The answer is...not very well!

Recently, the Journal of The American Medical Association published the 12-month weight loss results of obese people who followed either the Atkins (low-carb), Zone (moderate carb), Ornish (low-fat) or LEARN (low-fat) diets. On all these diets, weight loss peaked between 2 - 6 months before changing direction and creeping back towards the initial starting point. After a full year, the average weight loss results were only 1.6 kg, 2.2 kg, 2.6 kg, and 4.7 kg for the Zone, Ornish, LEARN, and Atkins groups, respectively. Atkins supporters embraced these results as 'proof' of their diet's 'superiority', but the results were nothing to brag about - they were merely the best of a bad bunch. Heck, I'd immediately fire any trainer who could only achieve a piddling 4.7 kg weight loss in his clients after a full year!

None of the diets altered the 'obese' BMI status of each group. The average body mass index of the subjects at ...
