Who else is sick and tired of chicken and broccoli and wants to ELIMINATE bland diet foods from their diet?
What’s in your kitchen? Foods that burn fat, or fake health foods that turn off your fat burning triggers?
It’s a VERY serious question that you should be asking yourself if you really want a lean and healthy lifestyle.
One of the biggest problems with fat loss and healthy eating is that I get really bored of the same ole’ food. You?
I guess that’s probably why most people resort to a LOT of fake diet foods. They’re convenient. They’re different. They seem healthy, right?
Think again.
This may sound a little controversial, but sometimes I can’t help but feel like the whole food industry is completely against us. (ESPECIALLY us women).
You may be surprised to find out that the simple way you approach and consume your so-called “healthy foods” could actually be making you put on ugly fat and unwanted weight.
These so-called “healthy foods” stimulate hormones and chemical reactions in your body that actually force your body into a fat storing zone.
The diet industry and the fake, healthy foods they promote are one of the main causes of the obesity epidemic. I don’t know if they do it on purpose and are really “against us”, but sometimes it sure does seem that way.
The main problem with these fake diet foods is that they don’t contain anything natural. Almost everything is processed and full of chemicals that our bodies are simply not designed to consume and digest.
So, what REALLY is in your kitchen?
We’ve reviewed hundreds (if not thousands) of food journals from our clients over the years and have been shocked by what people consider healthy choices.
Almost every time we look through their food journals (and kitchen), they are loaded with toxic food combinations and diet foods that are full of hidden, fat storing chemicals.
I’m not trying to freak anybody out and be all about the controversy. I’m just an advocate for spreading the truth. I hope you see my point and this makes sense.
These companies spend millions of dollars to deceive the consumer (all of us) into believing this stuff is healthy, when they’re really just fat storing foods in disguise.
We typically see foods listed such as:
- soy milk
- soy foods (tofu, veggie burgers, etc.)
- juices (orange juice, apple juice, etc.)
- regular or skim milk
- energy drinks (Gatorade, Powerade, etc.)
- diet sodas
- low carb foods (we call them “fake” foods)
- low fat processed cheeses
- low fat yogurts
- canola oil, soybean oil, corn oil
- wheat pastas
- protein bars (really just like a Snickers with a little protein added)
- unhealthy nuts
- peanut butter
- diet foods (desserts, ice creams, chips etc.)
- corn products (found in almost everything that says low carb)
- diet crackers
- diet cereals
- granola bars
- diet drinks
- frozen diet dinners
- rice cakes
- whole wheat products
- margarine or alternative fake butter products
- the list goes on and on…
We see this pattern continuously year after year with almost every person we work with. Their cupboards are loaded with foods they think are healthy for them.
The problem is they don’t realize these are the same exact foods that are actually causing them to gain weight, suppressing their fat burning hormones and destroying their energy all at the same exact time.
This means even if they lose weight initially, chances are they’ll gain all the weight right back if these foods are a part of their plan.
This goes back to one of our core philosophies here at GL-12.
AWARENESS.
Again, we’re all going to consume some of these foods no matter what. The key is awareness and moderation.
Even Shaun admits (as a male) that he can still consume most of these foods and still stay lean. But, he makes sure to avoid them at least 5 days a week. Why? He feels malnourished and doesn’t get the healthy vitamins and minerals he needs.
After giving birth to my 4 kids, it became very difficult for me to keep up with my healthy eating. I actually started resorting to using all kinds of these healthy fake foods. It really seemed like the only option.
Then several weird things started happening.
- My body started putting on fat…in really weird places.
- My brain started feeling foggy and unfocused.
- I started losing my drive to workout and my energy levels dropped drastically.
- Something just wasn’t right.
Then I started reading books and learning from my husband about how to take recipes from the Food Network and make them healthy.
People like Rachel Ray, Bobby Flay, Sandra Lee, Ina and all the Food Network cooks make delicious recipes, but they have too many hidden calories, sugars and unhealthy fats.
So, I took my education and literally became a “Food Network” recipe addict. (Now you know where I got the nickname, Krazy Karen.) 🙂
I started compiling dozens of healthy recipes and “coding” them with our fat burning code “key”. The same one Shaun and I gave you on yesterday’s blog post.
Then we started inserting them directly into our GL-12 macro-patterning meal plans and all of a sudden our healthy eating became fun again!
Before I knew it, Krazy Karen’s Fat Burning Cookbook And Recipe Boot Camp was born.
We call it: A Fun, Long-Term Solution for Delicious Healthy Eating that Automatically Facilitates and Promotes Fat Loss – Forever.
I’m not much of salesperson, but I’m pretty dang excited about my cookbook.
Shaun’s favorite recipe is the Mexican Lasagna and he loves the homemade protein bars. I’m a big fan of the grilled fish recipes. My husband always says I’m going to grow fish gills.
If you’re one of the first 100 people to take action today, we’re going to enroll you in a special Fall 2010 Extreme Fat Loss Webinar and Group Coaching Call with a Special Surprise Guest.

The best part about this guide is that ANY of the recipes (over 110) can be automatically inserted into our macro-patterning meal plans.
Thanks for reading this and allowing me to share my passion for cooking to help you stay lean for life (and summer 2010).
Your fat burning friend and advisor,

P.S. We also have a few other fat burning tricks (and bonuses) up our sleeve for the first 100 people who claim their copy of my brand new cookbook.

Hey, Karen.
Congratulations on completing such a big project!
I hardly ever cook, which is a real obstacle to getting lean, as you can imagine. Part of it is I’m just plain lazy. I don’t like to do a lot of prep, I don’t like to do a lot of cleanup, I don’t like to shop from a grocery list with dozens of items. Maybe I don’t even LIKE to cook, but I know I have to do some things I don’t like to achieve my goals. How do you think your cookbook will work for someone like me?
Thanks, and good luck with the book.
