Looking for the fastest way to lose weight? Aside from a long sickness or drug use, both of which are completely negative ways to lose weight, calorie cycling may be the way to go.

Growing in use calorie cycling or calorie shifting is fast becoming the way to go. Long used by bodybuilders and other athletes who have to make weight without losing strength or muscle, calorie shifting is a simple method that involves fooling the body into remaining in a high metabolism, high burn mode even when fewer calories are eaten. And it can work to shed pounds even if you don’t cut down on calories, which is even better.

Here’s how it works. Shift the nutrients and calories taken in each day while keeping steady on the times you normally eat. It’s a very simple diet to execute because it’s a very well planned diet. There are numerous on line sources that include detailed explanations and menus for calorie shifting.

Are there pitfalls?  Of course, so here are some things to keep in mind. Calorie shifting diets are generally low in vegetables, calcium and fat. All are important elements of good health. Next, calorie shifting is a diet originally designed for cases of extreme obesity where medical intervention is needed. In such cases the diet would be administered under careful medical scrutiny. That’s not true when used at home. Finally, calorie shifting diets are short term, quick loss diets. Like other such diets you’ll put the weight back on quickly if you go back to the regular eating habits, and most people do.

As with any diet as the fastest way to lose weight, or really anything in life, moderation is required. Good for a short time, calorie shifting should not be extended beyond a few days. As you’ve heard so many times with so many other diets, make it a part of an overall healthy living plan that includes good diet and lots of exercise. That way then the few days of calorie shifting is complete, the weight won’t return and return you to square one.
