Pretty hard right possible why because your biology will always beat your willpower no matter how much you want to die it ain't going to work what you can do those nudge the biology blubber in the right direction now the first thing that I figure out is what are you measuring what a success look like well it turns out it's not your weight it's your waist size which is the best predictor of health the ideal waist size measures your belly button is about half your height take a look at this chart and see what your waist size should be while I take you through mine I'm feet one inches tall so times inches to inches in a foot extend inches add one more inch that's inches divided into thirty six and a half inches if I'm more than that I got too much belly fat going on if you've got too much belly fat problems start to happen and here's the big one let's look at the momentum this is an animation set yellow stuff there that's the momentum and that pad wouldn't get rid of that per second there's a liver up there the gall bladders the green stuff there's the stomach of the food you ate earlier today and it's being pushed down to the small bowel your bowel is going to mix that with bile the green stuff from the gallbladder and like a soap in a wash it and help it absorb through this very thin wall through the big portal vein this vein carries all the nutrients to deliver no matter what you eat the livers going to metabolize it and send it out to the body feed healthy stuff the livers going to love that if you unhealthy stop the live will turn fatty this fat liver afflicts a quart of the pie place and then so mentum starts to get pondrá steal ours if it pulls way across and because that big beer belly that so many folks have I Got News for You men after the age of never buy new bell sauce or they do they snip the belt under the fat right and they walk around like this and they waddle around like this all the time so you actually got to get the folks in your life to measure their waist size not the belt size but belly button over the hips to get that magical number again it's going to be half of your height now I brought you a little demonstration because I love organs this is actually what happens inside of your belly the reason your belly gets big is not because you got a little fat beneath the skin you get big fat under the muscle way inside where those organs are that I showed you normally momentum looks like this see it's very thin very dainty it's like pantyhose very elegant right here you can see through it almost I can see that right now what happens is instead of having that nice dainty momentum you end up with this now compare this to this there's a big difference there and that's the difference that I'm talking about when you have this big pad or momentum here slopping up on side of your intestines there's no way your body can keep up with it and it causes coronary artery disease it causes diabetes it causes hypertension that's what I'm focused on today because this belly fat poisons your liver causing high cholesterol it squeezes the kidneys the kidneys have to jack up your blood pressure because the kidneys regulate your blood pressure and it also poisons the ability of insulin to work and without that you get diabetes that's why I'm always telling you to know you're what are the key five numbers you got to know your weight your waist size your blood pressure your cholesterol and your fasting blood sugar all those are interrelated to your weight and the best way to change these numbers therefore is to lose that weight even a small loss can make a huge difference that's what we talked about just these bracelets the just bracelets are all about losing just pounds which we know for a -pound woman or less will
