5 Burn The Fat “AH-HA” Moments
July 11, 2008
You know what an “AH-HA” moment is right?
It’s one of those times where you come across
something that causes a fundamental shift in
how you see the world and perceive reality.
Recently Tom Venuto polled some of the members
of the Burn The Fat Inner Circle about their
Burn The Fat “AH-HA’s”…
Tom was ‘BLOWN AWAY’ with the response…
(He had over 55 ‘Burn The Fat AH-HA’s’ submitted!)
If you want to read all 55 go here:
There are some real ‘gems’ contained in
these responses but before I share them with you
I wanted to tell you the question Tom asked them.
–> Here’s the question:
“Have you ever read a particular paragraph of
“Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle,” came across an
interesting idea in an article on the Inner Circle,
picked out a piece of ‘Venuto-Wisdom’ in one of Tom’s
interviews, or came across any other ‘nugget’ that
caused you to experience an “AH-HA” moment?
–> Here are five ‘Burn The Fat AH-HA Moments’ that
some Inner Circle Members submitted:
———————-
BURN THE FAT AH-HA #1.
———————-
“Nearly everyone has set up some sort of limitation for
themselves simply by deciding what level of discomfort
they are willing to put up with. Achieving your dream
body takes a lot of work and discipline.
Yet so many people come up with excuses to avoid a
workout, or indulge in junk food, or neglect writing
out their goals on a daily basis because of lack of
time.”
———————-
BURN THE FAT AH-HA #2.
———————-
“The mind is the missing key for most. Honest truth …
I bought the book in ’04, and skipped straight past the
goal setting to read about nutrition and training. That
was all I thought I needed from the book.
I did not write goals and I just set out to follow the
plan. Some short success followed but ultimate failure.
When I revisited the book in 2006, the early chapters on
goal setting really hit home with me. I set my first goals
and a lot of early success followed. It is so critical.”
———————-
BURN THE FAT AH-HA #3.
———————-
“I listened to Tom’s recent interview today about how to get
super-lean lots of things are covered in BFFM but the one
statement from the interview that stuck out in my mind was
that: We live in a reciprocal universe.
You get what you put into it. And in only 3+ months, I’m
already seeing that,
Since January, I’ve lost 20 lbs of fat and have gone from a
size 10 to a loose size 6. I’m currently sitting at around
20% bodyfat (down from about 30%).
I know I have a lot of work to do before September but I’m
enjoying the journey and looking forward to what my body is
capable of. With all of the knowledge I’ve gained so far and
continue to gain as well as having a wonderful support system
of my family, friends, and trainer, I KNOW I CAN DO THIS!”
———————-
BURN THE FAT AH-HA #4.
———————-
“Track Results Frequently. Seeing results on a spreadsheet
or in pictures will always help motivate you to improve or
worst case, help you to not fall too far off the wagon.”
———————-
BURN THE FAT AH-HA #5.
———————-
“The body loves nutrient rich food. Improving my diet has
taken a lot of time and self examination. Due to my body type
I realized maybe a tuna sandwich on wheat bread would not be
as good for me as a tuna on a bed of greens and other vegetables.
I have no history of ever being able to eat salads with any
consistency. Now I absolutely crave them and eat them twice
a day.
This was an impossible thought to me a year ago and not something
I strived for necessarily but I eat salads with protein and good
fats and the effect on energy levels, immune system, mental health
is nothing short of miracle.”

A Review Of Tom Venuto’s Burn The Fat Inner Circle
May 31, 2008
A Review Of Tom Venuto’s Burn The Fat Inner Circle (The Internet’s Premier Fat Loss Support Community!)
I just took a real hard look at Tom Venuto’s member’s-only website called “Burn The Fat Inner Circle” and I have to say that I am very impressed with what he has put together.
This site is huge and contains some really powerful resources for people trying to lose fat and get in great shape.
This site, just like Tom’s other sites, has very high quality materials that will help his member’s burn more fat and really achieve the results they are looking for.
Before I share with you the insider-details of what the Inner Circle offers let me fill you in on who Tom Venuto is just in case you don’t know who he is.
Tom Venuto is a well known “Fat Loss Guru” — and a natural bodybuilder himself (can you say 3% bodyfat!!!). He’s the author of “Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle” which just happens to be the best fat loss and diet e-book I have ever read. (I reviewed Burn The Fat some time ago. If you’re in the market for a learner body then you should read Tom’s E-book).
Ok, back to my review of the Inner Circle website…
Burn the Fat Inner Circle is in fact a membership site. That means that yes; it does cost money to join. You may be wondering why you should even consider paying for a membership here if you have access to all kinds of free information online.
It’s a good question for sure and one that I asked too before I reviewed Tom’s site.
There’s a lot of free stuff on the internet and many free forums too but let’s be honest, a lot these free sites are pure garbage. For example, some of the free forums online are not closely moderated and I have had experiences were other forum members completely trashed other members even swearing at them! Not much of a supportive community.
The vast majority of the stuff online that isn’t complete garbage is slanted one way or another to sell you something. So it takes time to find real, helpful fat loss information.
Finding good teachers and supportive people can be a challenge on some of the free forums and sites but after checking out Tom’s fat loss support community I must say that I was impressed with how supportive the moderators and other members were.
I have always been a believer that finding good ‘mentors’ (people that have done what you want to do) has really helped me to achieve success at a faster rate. From what I have seen, the Inner Circle has a phenomenal group of fat loss mentors that can you help you get your questions answered.
Being part of a community of like-minded, qualified people can be a real motivating factor and the Burn The Fat Inner Circle contains a member’s forum — with thousands of members. These folks aren’t going to ‘flame’ you, call you stupid for asking questions, and they are not there to sell you supplements or other garbage.
And best of all, topics are moderated by professionals with impressive credentials (some top fitness professionals and fat loss success stories there to help you out).
Wrapping this up… joining a membership program can make very good sense… provided it’s the right program — and I assure you, this one is top notch.
OK, before I tell you what you’ll find inside the member’s-only area of the Burn The Fat Inner Circle, let me answer one last and very obvious question…
“Do I need to be on Tom’s Burn The Fat program in order to join this fat loss support community?”
My answer is absolutely not. There is a ton of great material in this site that will be of benefit to anyone — no matter what diet you are currently on.
To be fair though… it appears (by viewing posts in the forums) that many members are either on Tom’s plan or are at least familiar with it. So you’ll fit into this community better if you’re at least familiar with Tom’s Burn The Fat Feed The Muscle lifestyle program.
Let’s get to the good stuff shall we?
So what will you find in Tom’s Burn The Fat Inner Circle?
Oh boy… where to start?
Well, it’s all there really — everything you could possibly need on your fat loss quest.
I’m sure the biggest benefit for you is going to be the forums. They’re full of activity and supportive answers from real people that ‘walk the walk and talk the talk.”
The forum members are from all walks of life, all motivated by the same thing (and ready to lend a helpful hand to their fellow community members).
And of course, there’s a ton of info there as well…
Here are some of the coolest features that the Inner Circle offers:
• Tom Venuto’s Burn The Fat Show (A Members-Only MP3 Audio Program) that really has some powerful tips delivered by Tom Venuto himself • Audio interviews with top fitness and fat loss experts (I download a few of these and put them on my IPOD — very inspiring to listen to during my cardio workout today!) • Amazing fat loss success stories – learn how others just like you achieved their impressive body transformations (These interviews are great and I got some really cool takeaways from these people who have taken Tom’s program and ran with it!)
• Ever-expanding library of exclusive (not published elsewhere) articles; some really meaty stuff!
• Exclusive (not published elsewhere) Burn The Fat program Q & A that are great if you are going through a fat loss program and want your questions answered. • Library of downloadable e-books and e-reports for members only — My goodness! Tom sells these special reports and e-books to non-members and if you were to buy them one by one you would pay over $379!
• Diet and menu tracking and planning tools that are PRICELESS!! I figured out exactly how many calories I needed to take in for each meal for my fat loss plan; so cool!
• Calorie and nutrient information at your fingertips
• Weight loss and fitness news headlines that keep me up to date with the latest fat loss tips
• Community photo galleries where Tom’s members post before, after and progress pictures — so inspiring!
• Delicious taste-tested fat-burning recipes — I highly recommend Tom’s “Quick N’ Easy Salmon Burgers” — DELICIOUS!
• NO B.S. Science-based and unbiased supplement reviews (I stopped taking one of the supplements I was spending about $50 bucks per month on because of one of these reviews!)
• And there is even more that I am running out of space to cover here… The tagline of the Inner Circle is that it is supposed to be the Internet’s Premier Fat Loss Support Community, and having checked it all out, I’d have to say I agree 100%.
Bottom line?
Tom Venuto is a credible, qualified professional who knows his stuff. More than that perhaps, is the fact that he has a genuine concern for the people his is helping and is concerned with taking care of the people that enter his program above all else.
Tom has helped thousands of people shed thousands of pounds of fat and he is not like some online marketers out to take advantage of the hopes and dreams of honest people looking to make some positive changes in there life.
You’ll see no supplements for sale here and you’ll be impressed with the honesty and integrity that Tom has infused into the Inner Circle site — it really is something special and my recommendation is to check it out.
His “Inner Circle” is a premier quality resource — well worth the money, and a benefit to anyone, anywhere, of any age who is trying to lose weight naturally and permanently.
I highly recommend the Burn the Fat Inner Circle.
Sincerely,
Greg
PS — Don’t take my word for it… just see what some people are saying about the Inner Circle:
“My initial weight: 425+ lbs… Walking 10-15 steps was killer then… Today: 218 Lbs of fat put to rest! It changed my very foundation in life; there is absolutely no feeling like having control of your entire life again… there’s just no price you can put on it” –Mike Boyd, Inner Circle Member
“One day, while I was looking through a pack of photos, I came across a picture of me… and I barely recognized myself! At 5′ 1″, and150 pounds I had to face the fact that I was Forty and Fat. I had no idea that I had “let myself go” so much. So I decided to make some changes. Somehow, I happened upon Burn The Fat and ordered. It was the best money I ever spent. Today, I am 106 pounds, and I wear a size 0 (zero!)I am a personal trainer helping other women achieve their goals. I am a mom that can keep up with my kids. My self-confidence has soared. I actually decided to compete in two figure competitions this year – something I never would have dreamed possible before!
Sincerely, Aida Miodus, Inner Circle Member
“I used the BURN THE FAT program to not only lose 137 pounds, but it also changed my entire life and the life of my family. BURN THE FAT has also helped me achieve emotional, physical and financial goals I never thought possible. I believe that your entire success can be traced back to something as simple as desire. I need you to ask yourself one simple question – ‘How Bad Do You Want It?’ If you want it bad the battle is on and you can win, you just have to keep that desire fueled.
Sincerely,
Mike Ogorek, Inner Circle Member
