Buddy's take on Calorie Reduction

A friend sent me to a calorie restriction web site and the simplicity and power of the concept is astounding. Reduce youc caloric intake by 25% and, in addition to the obvious weight loss benefits, you get improved health and longer life. I read 3 books on the subject each expalined the concept simply but went on to get complex. calorie counting, vitamin and mineral requirements, specific meals at specific times emphasizing the need for an incredible amount of self-discipline.

1. Fact of the matter is if your diet is rotten, a 25%reduction is a drop in the bucket. If your diet is great, it will still be great when calories are reduced
2. If you eat 21 meals per week, each meal is approximately 5% of you weekly caloric intake, each day represents 15%. Eliminate 5 meals and you've reduced calories by 25%.
3. Start with a 1-day fast (15%). Add the prior evening (20%) and the following morning (25%) as you get comfortable
