Don’t Read The 100 Calorie Diet Plan Before Commenting

I posted this article on another of my blogs: Losing Weight While Gaining Muscle CLICK HERE In it I state that it is almost impossible for an average person with an average metabolism to lose weight while gaining muscle without a fair amount of chemical and psychological support.
Sadly, losing weight while gaining muscle is asking your body to two do completely different things at the exact same time. In general, to gain muscle, you need to train your muscles with a bodybuilding protocol. You will do a moderate volume of training at heavy weights. You will go to failure. Your muscle cells will grow and multiply. With more and bigger muscles you will weigh more. This is simple math with simple proven medical science. Your metabolism will adjust so that you can rest more while muscle growth occurs. Sometimes you will have to eat more. — Seven Summits Body Blog

I then proceeded to suggest The 100 Calorie Diet Plan CLICK HERE, a simple system of portion control based on simple sound medical and scientific principles. I’ve made the limited math involved simple enough that a 5th Grader could follow the diet plan. In a recent message board post about the article there were a few interesting comments I’d like to share, in slightly modified form, to protect the innocents.

Comments about The 100 Calorie Diet Plan

meticulous tracking and manipulating .. protein/carb/fat ratios and timing of your intake so that every [bite] is accounted for .. fits the plan
[guided by] my trainer and have found it very stressful with little result
works best with those who can radically change their diet
Those are a few of my favorite comments that I thought it would be important to share. The reason is, that none of these have anything to do with my diet plan book. It’s sad that these various preconceived notions are being applied generically to my book. It’s also sad that these are actually quite common excuses that people use for not achieving their goals.
In the book I make no mention of proteins, carbs, fats or other macronutrients. I state quite clearly that just about anything you do for a few weeks is almost irrelevant in the big scheme of things.
It’s clearly stated in the Diet Plan that you can eat your food whenever you want and whenever it’s convenient for you. You eat however feels good. I wanted it to be simple.
I make no recommendations for a trainer in my book. My own opinion is that most trainers do not have an open mind when it comes to eating. Whatever the writers of their certificate training program put in there is good for them. They might believe in some ratio of macronutrients. They might believe in some timing requirements. For the most part a lot of the common knowledge is based on bodybuilding and has nothing to do with almost anyone who should be reading this book. I can see how it would be stressful, and hope that the failings of your trainer aren’t preventing you from achieving the body of your dreams.
In the book I actually recommend that you just eat whatever you want. The only caveat is that you break it up into small portions. This is the same technique used by restaurants that offer a “healthy meal” option. You get a small chunk of meat, a reasonable size portion of rice and veggies and maybe a small dry salad. Could you eat that on The 100 Calorie Diet Plan? Of course! It’s easy. So I think that claims about radically altering your diet are based on some other agenda.

It’s great though for me to get a chance to see how other people feel about the Diet Plan without even reading it. I get some great ideas for how to better position my book and appeal to the concerns of those who might be willing to make small incremental changes in their lives. To those who desire one of the easiest ways to transform their dreams into action. To those who are willing to accept how simple and basic it truly can be.
Buy the book. Try it out for 6 to 12 weeks. It’s at a great price now everywhere it’s sold in ebook format and well worth it if you learn only one thing that you can apply to your own life.

Every Book Holds a Little World Inside

When I'm in full on writing mode, I can crank out up to 10,000 words a day.That's not normal though. I try to set a goal of getting in 2,000 words a day, like the old Stephen King writing advice states. “I like to get ten pages a day, which amounts to 2,000 words." Stephen King Goodreads I got quite a few books written in a short time span last fall, then settled down into normal daily life. The intensity required to write a book like "My Sweet Infected" was unexpectedly devastating. I became my protagonist in so many ways as she crept into my psyche and took over for me as I channeled her every thought as I created the story of her awakening. Read the book if you want to know more about this ruined world with humans on the brink of extinction. Find the clues, sort through the chaos, and realize the end is inevitable. The little world inside this book is doomed. Check it out, get the free sample for your Kindle - On Amazon My Sweet Infected (My Inf...

Eternal Redemption - Review [#horror #fantasy]

Eternal Redemption by Paul A. Wunderlich My rating: 2 of 5 stars Rating this: under the little star at position 2nd from the left, there is a little balloon that pops up "It was OK" That's about it. In general, the tone and language seem like a fervent attempt to imitate high fantasy. There are a series of editing errors that cause some confusion. It's tough to write a protagonist who drifts in and out of their own head. Time slips around in circles. An entire world of minions is disposable. When you're sitting at the top of an Everest sized pile of skulls, what's the next big challenge? Oh, yeah, trick the master trickster. Well, you get exactly what you ask for. With a little syrup on the side. View all my reviews

Film Festival History

A very long time ago when I lived in Kansas City, I attended a workshop on how to write a screenplay. At the time I was already editing my own fanzine that I later sold for an outrageous profit. I was also writing regularly for a handful of local magazines including New Age and Health topics, like the kind you find in massage studios. I did quite well and kept in touch with the instructor, who was a Hollywood Reader - the people that pre-screen submissions to studios. I wrote a screenplay and shopped it around some, getting a call from a VP at Viacom at my job in landscaping. I was completely and totally unprepared for that call and botched it terribly. I kept that bug in the back of my mind for a few years, and later when a company moved me to Utah for a tech job, I ended up hanging on the periphery of the Indie Film crowd. I went to a very professional Short Film Fest in Nevada, and decided I would make one for a Utah fest. The topic of the short was supposed to be something ...
