How To Break Your Fat Loss Plateau
Hey guys … if you’re stuck, here’s how you can start making progress again –
Eating Well While Eating Out – 3 Quick Tips
Two over-indulgent restaurant meals over a weekend can literally kill the progress you’ve made with your fat loss plan over the course of the week – here are three tips to help you stay on track and make good choices even when you’re dining out:
1. Cut Your Portions In Half
Just eat half of your meal. Portions at most restaurants these days are so ridiculously huge that eating half of your meal actually many times leaves you with a ‘correct’-sized portion.
2. Pick Your Favorites
Choose only one of your favorite foods – not all of them. In other words, you can get the cookie if you really want it, but eat healthy for the rest of your meal. Have the burger but skip the fries. You get the idea.
3. Skip The Caloric Beverages
Two regular-sized sodas can literally add several hundred calories to your meal. It’s just not worth it – skip the caloric beverages.
Keep those three tips in mind this weekend to keep your fat loss plan in check!

Here’s what a few of our clients have to say about our programs:
“Prior to meeting Forest and using his training system, I did mostly your typical ‘bodypart split’ – type of workout – I devoted one day per week to work my chest, a day to work my legs, etc. In the past, I never had any real specific direction or plan for my workouts – I just sort of showed up. Not surprisingly, I never really got the results I was looking for.
These new workouts are like nothing I’ve ever experienced. I’m able to work my entire body in an amazingly short amount of time. I’m very happy with the progress that Denise and I have made so far.”
– Eddie E
“I actually didn’t see results on the scale as quickly as I expected to in the beginning, and in the past would’ve given up too easily. I knew how to eat healthy so I thought I was fine and I can be a bit hard headed sometimes … however, with Forest’s suggestions, I was finally able to nail down my diet, and when I did, everything started coming together and I got the results I was looking for.
The thing I enjoy most about these workouts is the amount of variety involved. The exercises, amount of sets and reps, and weight I use are constantly changing so I never get bored. Also, the results I’m getting now are as good or better than when I was working out two hours a day, six days per week. These workouts never take longer than 45 minutes. Thanks Forest!”

Melanie Lost 68 Pounds in Less Than 6 Months
“From late September 2008 to the middle of February 2009 I lost 68 pounds. I have had over 15 people not know it was me they were talking to recently. I think that says a lot. This has been the best thing for my health and happiness. I decided to stop the excuses and start caring. Let today be the day you care enough. Just do it!”
-Melanie A
Option C –
The best part about signing up now is that you’re locked in at these prices until you decide to stop. So, if you train for the next 12 months, as many of my clients end up doing, you’re guaranteed to save almost $200.
