Today Vinnie and Anna discuss NSNG as a lifestyle and not a diet. They address concerns voiced by listeners about exactly what they can and cannot eat. Also, today’s One-On-One guest is Sam Feltham, a Master Personal Trainer in London. He is also founder and owner of Smash the Fat Fitness and Fat Loss Boot Camp. Sam has a new book out, “Slimology”.
Oh, and don’t miss the picture of the gorgeous and talented Serena Scott-Thomas from her movie, Inherent Vice, which appeared in the Los Angeles Times…
N=1 SELF EXPERIMENTS
- For 21 days, Sam at almost 6,000 calories a day of a low carb/high fat diet
- Over that time he only gained 3 pounds and lost an inch on his waist
- He followed up 3 months later to let his body readjust
- Then for 21 days, Sam ate almost 6,000 calories a day of high carb/low fat diet (fake foods, processed foods) Sam gained 16 pounds
HOW DID HE FEEL ON THE HIGH FAT DIET VS THE HIGH CARB DIET
- On high fat he felt great, energized and looked forward to exercising
- On high carb (fake food) Sam felt sleepy, his exercise program felt laborious, his sleep was negatively affected and he snored
- To counteract those side affects, many people turn to sugar and caffeine
- It becomes an eternal struggle
