Hey ya’ll!

Part four and the final installment in the Always Eat After 7 PM: The Revolutionary Rule-Breaking Diet That Lets You Enjoy Huge Dinners, Desserts, and Indulgent Snacks—While Burning Fat Overnight by Joel Marion series is here. The last four weeks have flown by and I’ve learned so much! I’m excited for the progress I’ve made so far, and to keep it going long after this blog is published.

How I Plan to Keep the Always Eat After 7PM Challenge Going

Like I mentioned before, I’ve learned so much about popular dieting myths and tips that are actually helpful and based in science. This knowledge has been helping planning daily meals for myself and my family. One of the main things that I’ll be taking along with me from the this challenge are the easy to follow meal plan. If you read my third installment, you’ll know that the Always Eat After 7pm book comes with a super easy meal plan that even details recommended portion sizes. This has been the most useful tool for me as I can be pretty unimaginative when it comes to planning meals. Not only does it tell you what your daily meals should consist of, but the Always Eat After 7pm book also provides tasty recipes. There’s nothing that derails my fitness goals quicker than getting bored with my meals.

Always Eat After 7pm is Based in Science

Bestselling author, Joel Marion, is a fitness expert and nutritionist debunking the myths underlying traditional dieting and offers a simple, highly effective weight loss program. One of the biggest myths busted by the Always Eat After 7pm book, for me, was how carbs really affect your body. We’ve been traditionally taught to avoid carbs, have an early dinner, and never eat before bed. But the fact is, the latest scientific research shows us this earlier model is not the most ideal. The book has this to say about carbs,

“Avoiding carbohydrates and restricting calories later in the day can have an adverse effect on your thyroid hormones, which play a major role in metabolism. When the thyroid fails to secrete enough of the hormones that control metabolism, this can trigger symptoms like fatigue, depression, weight gain, thinning hair, and dry skin.”

Before Always Eat After 7pm, I was in the camp of people who believed carbs were all bad. However, I’ve been able to learn so much on this subject among other things. Did you know that research shows that eating breakfast doesn’t necessarily equate to weighing less. The book says this of a research study,

“Those who ate breakfast ended up eating about 260 calories more a day, the review found. Those who skipped breakfast were about one pound lighter than those who ate breakfast. These findings led the researchers to conclude that eating breakfast isn’t necessarily a good strategy for losing weight. The science isn’t really there. Breakfast could very well be the least important meal of the day.”

There are so many things to unpack in the book, but I’ve enjoyed learning and implementing new practices in may daily routine.

Conclusion

I’ve enjoyed learning about and implemented the strategies outlined in this book.
