Why I chose this book to lose my last 20 pounds
This post is brought to you by our sponsor, “Always Eat After 7 PM”. The opinions expressed below are my own.
Weight loss is never easy, and I never expected being at home would be key to focusing my energy on my health.
When I was researching ways to lose weight, I was lucky to get the opportunity to work with Always East After 7. I was looking for something that was a lifestyle, and it wasn’t about gimmicks.
Luckily, the book was just that! I love that it ticked all my boxes – accelerated weight loss at first to get you motivated, a manageable main phase and rules for eating that keeps you mindful for your entire life.
It also incorporated intermittent fasting, which had been good for me in the past.
The most challenging times to curb hunger are just before bed and in the morning. By following the Always Eat After 7PM program, you have the most willpower to stay on the diet because you are eating during the hours when you are most hungry.
I lost 7 pounds in the first two weeks, and now I have lost another 3. I am very happy with this progress!
“Always Eat After 7 pm is a three-phase program that teaches you how to lose big by strategically eating big when you are naturally hungriest—in the evening. This may sound too good to be true, but let me assure you it is no gimmick. It’s all about making strategic and smart food swaps, and you can still eat your favorite foods,” the book says.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: JOEL MARION
Joel Marion, the book’s author, is a fitness expert and nutritionist debunking the myths underlying traditional dieting and offers a simple, highly effective weight loss program.
He sat down and answered some questions of where the book originated!
What inspired you to write the book?
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 develop the diet?
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.
What was the most surprising discovery when you were researching scientific data for the diet?
That almost everything my college education and certifications taught me was NOT grounded in published scientific research.

MY UPDATE
Well, I have my mom on the book now too – so it’s great to have a buddy in all of this. I honestly don’t even feel like I am dieting.
I am just eating healthier, and I feel better – inside and out.
Here is a little progress photo, and a little brag that my baby brother graduated from high school.
I am now 10 pounds away from my goal!
