COFFEE

That’s how I’ve always started my morning. 2 double cups with half & half and a no-calorie sweetener. Zippy keeps trying to get me to switch to either black or at least use Stevia in place of my 4 yellow packets, but I like my coffee this way. Sometimes I eat breakfast, other days I just wait until lunch. Breakfast can be anything from eggs or pancakes or leftovers from last night’s dinner. There isn’t any consistency in my diet for sure.

What I learned is that

“One of the simplest 3-Minute Fat-Burning Morning Rituals, lemon water is a glass of water mixed with the juice of one half of a lemon. This drink provides all the benefits of regular drinking water, which supports weight loss, digestive health, physical performance, and cognitive function.”

For me

The most challenging times to curb hunger are just before bed and in the morning. By following the Always Eat After 7PM program, I seem to have the most willpower to stay on the diet because I get to eat during the hours when I am the hungriest. What I’ve learned from this program is that this also puts you into both intermittent fasting increasing testosterone and your metabolism, while putting you into ketosis.

Learning to eat again

At 67 years old, I’ve had lots of training in bad habits. It’s not so easy to undo 67 years in one day, but I’m learning slowly. I give myself permission to mess up and get back on the wagon again. I’m learning that carbs aren’t the enemy, it’s my way of thinking about dieting is. 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. It’s taken a bit to get that through this thick head of mine, but I am.

I am a father and a father-in-law. Over the years I have gotten some pretty bad Father’s Day gifts from my family gifts. There were ties that I never wore. Socks that didn’t fit. Dinners that were burnt and more. But, I knew that there was so much love involved in choosing them, cooking them, and giving them. Any gift from your kids or wife is a good gift.

The one’s that we put into this guide are just the ones that I WISH I had gotten. Hopefully, this year I won’t be getting a squatty potty or a tracksuit that looks like it was from the 80’s.

Happy Father’s Day to all of the dads and for the mom’s and kids….do a little shopping from these Father’s Day Gifts and you won’t find that unworn tie stuffed in the corner of his dresser 10 years later.

When Zippy suggested I start a blog

I had watched her for over 12 years working from her office, the living room, the kitchen table, and when we were on vacation. Honestly, it didn’t look that hard. I mean, if she could just grab her computer and start typing and make money, I figured THIS WAS A GOLDMINE. Was I ever wrong. I can’t even begin to tell you the technical side of blogging because if I’m being completely honest, I leave it to her.  She’s got the experience and has done the research.

After one year of being online

I figured that it was time to learn some of the techniques to get people like YOU to come HERE and read. So, I picked up a paperback book called Traffic Secrets: The Underground Playbook for Filling Your Websites and Funnels with Your Dream Customers and started reading.

About the Author

Russell Brunson is a Best-Selling Author & CEO of $100M software company ClickFunnels. I remember seeing some of his other books on the nightstand because my wife was already a fan. Russell has built a following of over a million entrepreneurs, sold hundreds of thousands of copies of his books, and popularized the concept of sales funnels. In 2014, Russell and partner Todd Dickerson launched ClickFunnels, which became the fastest-growing non-venture backed software company in the world.

About the Book

I admit that I may have had a preconceived notion about business books, but Mr. Brunson’s approach to teaching these skills is fun, funny, and very doable. He shares his successes as well as his failures, allowing you to learn from his mistakes and to use what he’s learned really works without spending years trying to navigate online marketing on your own.

You don’t have to go it alone

If you’ve been toying with the idea of starting an online business, whether it be selling products, information or blogging (like me), save yourself some time and pick up a copy of Traffic Secrets: The Underground Playbook for Filling Your Websites and Funnels with Your Dream Customers HERE

I am a stubborn dieter. I always believed what I had heard about losing weight. I’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. Based on surprising science, Always Eat After 7 PM debunks popular diet myths and offers an easy-to-follow diet that accelerates fat-burning and allows you to indulge in your most intense food cravings: Eating the majority of your calories at night. I had a hard time adjusting to this. My old mindset had been deeply ingrained.

I went to the source of this new book, Joel Marion to get some answers.

What made you want to write this book?

Joel Marion: After authoring 6 best selling books it was glaringly obvious there were 2 huge misconceptions about dieting that needed to be exposed. The first is that you can’t eat late at night or before bed, which science now shows is NOT true. And second, you can’t eat large portions that satisfy your natural instinct. This book solves both these problems by providing an evidence-based, enjoyable approach to dieting that can be used by any person to quickly achieve their weight loss goals.

How long did it take for you to research & create this diet program?

Joel Marion: It actually took several years of researching for me to discover the real science of eating late night. After a few years of tweaking and refining, I finally came up with a rapid fat loss solution that overcomes all the pitfalls of traditional diets.

How difficult is the Always Eat After 7 PM plan to follow?

Joel Marion: It’s not. And that’s exactly why I wrote the book. While any diet is never truly easy, it can be more enjoyable and much easier to adhere to when you understand how Always Eat After 7pm works because it caters to our bodies natural instincts.

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 is now available to purchase.
