Fat Burning Furnace Blog

Real quick, in case you missed it, I just had one of my computer
geeks develop an online calculator that will give you a really
good estimate of what your body fat percentage is…

I’ve got ask you…do you really want to lose more fat? 

I ask this because as with most anything else one aspires to
achieve in life, most simply would LIKE to lose more fat, but
simply don’t WANT to lose it bad enough…

…it’s kind of like in competitive athletics.  Everyone would
like to win rather than lose, but there are very few that are
driven with a purpose…

…those that WANT to win…in fact, they MUST win to be
satisfied, and nothing less will do.

As you might imagine I get loads of emails from readers of this
newsletter and my FBF eBook every day about a variety of
subjects…and you know what I hear the most?

Well, it’s happened again.  I’ve been taken to task by one of my
readers…called out, as it were, for recommending that you
shouldn’t focus solely on animal products as your main source of
protein-

I’ve been getting a lot of great questions lately about fat

One of the most common questions I get from readers of this
newsletter is in regards to how much a person should weigh, or
what their ideal weight should be.

In fact, I get this question nearly every day from a handful of
new readers…here’s one I got recently:

Hi Rob,

I am 38 years old, and just 5′1 inches in height.  I’m really
overweight, but not sure what my goal weight should be.  I
want to fit into a size 4…I’m in a size 12 now.  Can you help?

Why is this such a big mystery to people?  Okay, there is a
simple answer here, but it’s a two part answer…

When I was a kid one of my friends used to go around cracking a
joke and saying “hey, your epidermis is showing!”.  Most kids
had no idea that epidermis simply meant your skin, so you can
imagine that this joke created instant terror in the minds of
some of my childhood friends.  Yeah, my buddy even got me with
this one.

But the role your epidermis, or skin, plays in your ability to
burn fat is no laughing matter.  In fact, did you know that when
you burn fat, most of it is liminated through your skin?  Let
me explain…(please forgive the rudimentary science lesson ;-))

You may know that after I made the decision to create a new
lifestyle focused around my “minutes each week and no diets” Fat
Burning Furnace principles, I lost over 42 pounds of fat and
gained pounds of solid muscle, strength, and cardiovascular
health.

What you may not know about is the backlash I received from some
family members and friends who hadn’t seen me in a while.  If
you can believe it, instead of most people complimenting me on
the fat loss, they seemed visibly concerned, jealous, or maybe a
bit of both.

The most important measurement to watch in determining whether
you’re burning fat, or just losing water or lean body mass
weight is that of your relative body fat percentage.  Period.

If you don’t get a fairly accurate measurement of this vital
statistic, all sorts of mental guessing games can occur, leading
to more frustration about your progress.
