Have you ever noticed that most diets start off with the wrong question? This is true in my experience.

People ask, how fast can I lose fat? But the problem comes from when they only focus on fast fat loss,

they end up tired, hungry, miserable, and then even if they lose weight, which obviously can

happen if you're focused 100% on fat loss, it seems like you gain it all back, the soon as things

get hard, difficult, you start traveling, there's a set of cookies on the table, whatever. So in my opinion, the real question should be, how do I lose fat fast without losing my energy, focus, or my life in the process? How do I sustain that forever? So this is the last time I have to do this, because losing fat, going on a diet, like that's not like what you are here on earth for. Those things are like the, like what we do to kind of get back to a baseline, to get our buy and to get our fit body, so we can start doing things that are important to us as humans. And that's exactly what energy first fat loss is all about. Instead of chasing fat loss and burning out, we eat in a way that maximizes our energy first. And the crazy part is that when you do that, fat loss becomes automatic.

Welcome to Get Leaner and Live Longer with Nate Palmer, the show for busy people who want to maximize their energy, burn fat, and build a body that feels as good as it looks. I'm your host, Nate Palmer. I'm going to coach since 2008. I believe that looking great and feeling unstoppable does not require hours in the gym or giving up all the foods that you love. This show is where I share real strategies that help you get leaner, live longer, and unlock your million dollar body. So if you're ready to cut through the noise, take control of your health and feel like a high performer again, let's do this. So first of all, what is energy first fat loss? There's a million diets out there, right? And a lot of them work. Regardless how you feel about keto or Mediterranean or Weight Watchers, Whole 30, whatever, there's a lot of people who have had success on each and every diet. The thing that I

find challenging in my profession, been doing this since 2008, I've seen thousands of people go

through different programs, diets, weight loss protocols, et cetera, but it seems that sustainability

is the number one issue that keeps people from getting the results

that they want and keeping that off for life. There's a 95% recidivism rate in weight loss,

which means that out of every hundred people that lose weight, only five are able to keep it off

for the rest of their lives. And that's a problem, right? Because not only is that time,

energy wasted, it's also a pain in the ass to go through,

track your food, do your diet, whatever else, whatever protocol you're on. And if you're not,

if you're doing that, you're working super, super hard to do that. You're depriving yourself.

You're, you're like setting these standards. You're disciplined. You're, you're waking up early.

It sucks to go on vacation and come back and be like, oh, well, I gained all the weight back that I just spent five months losing. So that's, that's annoying. So this is my, this is my thought around this. And I'm not going to tell you this is the greatest diet in the world. I will tell you, though, that the people who seem to adopt this strategy are able to maintain weight loss for the rest of their life. And I don't have 50-year study showing that,

but I've seen many, many people going through this process. I've coached probably 1,200 people

in the last 10 years on this process. And the ones who are able to visualize it, use this protocol,
