THE OPRAH CASE
Prof. Dr. Mohamed Elhashemy
December 12, 2008
In this era there are millions of overweight & obese ladies experienced the same failure as the most famous dieter Oprah Winfrey. They tried all possible diets including: Atkins, weightwatchers, low-fat diet, & liquid-diet. Most of them have always gone up and down cycles (yo-yo cycles).
If Oprah is embarrassed, she is not the only case because all those millions of dieters feel the same; usually any diet ends by overeating as a form of psychological retaliation leading to increase in the body weight than before starting that diet. So, if a lady´s weight was originally 200 pounds and dropped to 160 pounds following a restrictive diet, she will probably find herself weighting 220 pounds few months after stopping such diet.
Eating large volume meals is a deeply-rooted habit that is not easily changed by any diet except Luqaimat Training Technique "LTT". This is because I advise my obese patients to abandon the following concepts:
1. Caloric counting.
2. Banning certain food items.
3. Expecting to lose predetermined weight each week.
4. Eating large-sized meals.
5. Using burning-fat herbs or drugs.
6. Accusing body metabolism or thyroid gland for being fat.
Instead, I advise and train my obese patients to adopt the following concepts:
1. Shifting to be a Luqaimat eater (bite-sized meals).
2. Rewarding oneself through eating favorite foods in Luqaimat-size eight times per day.
3. Boosting the stomach satiety spot by eating 3 peanuts every 10 minutes during one hour each day.
4. Lowering the level of Ghrelin hormone secretion by eating Luqaimat meals every 2 hours.
5. Accepting the drop of one-dress size every two months as a measure of successful fat loss.
It is noticed that my diet is unconventional in that it does not count calories but count very small volumes of favorite foods (Luqaimat) and it acts through more than twenty factors (view my articles about Elhashemy Broad Spectrum Luqaimat Diet Plan on my webpage on American Chronicle). I think it is the only mega trend diet; hence it leads to lifelong weight loss.
In 2005, I had 313 who succeeded completely out of 345 in losing average of 72 pounds in their first year following the abovementioned rules. Three years later, 90% of them were still keeping off such reduced bodyweight, and this means that they reached the state of Ex-Obese. Since then thousands of Egyptians have followed Elhashemy´s Luqaimat Combo diet and as a result of its high success rates it has now become the most popular diet in Egypt.
As I wrote in many articles on American Chronicle, the best scientific diet plan has to be a diet that:
1. Provides all nutritional food requirements.
2. Allows eating any favorite food.
3. Can be maintained lifelong without difficulty.
4. Induces reasonable and gradual weight loss, to reach the normal BMI within 6 to 24 months depending on the starting BMI.
5. The lost weight is never regained.
Based on these criteria, Elhashemy´s Luqaimat Diet Combo surpasses all other diets in achieving these goals.
