Course Description

Thank you for Looking at my FREE online weight loss and fat loss success course! 

My Udemy course on fat and weight loss contains all the information I've painstakingly learned through hours and hours of reading, working with one on one with people, and applying this to my own life. The picture you see above is of me. I used the tactics that I am going to explain step by step to you in this course to go from zero to hero. The course is designed to teach you what I wish was taught to me in school. Everything you need to build a solid foundation in weight loss success. It is 100% free for you, and I am constantly updating it using user feedback as well as any information I feel you need to know. 

Why My Course is Different From Others: Weight Loss Made Simple

  • Most weight loss programs teach you things with a goal of knowing the information. My goal is to get you to understand the information I present so that you can formulate your life to meet your personal lifestyle goals
  • I teach you why Fad Diets will ultimately make you worse off in the long term
  • Finally, I teach you how simple it really is to obtain any goals. Stop making your life and nutrition plan so difficult on yourself, you have enough things in your life that cause stress! What you eat on a daily basis shouldn't be one of them!

You're busy, don't have time, and are tired of not getting REAL results...

You've come to the right place. In my course, I simplify all the information out there giving you your freedom back. I am giving you a nutritional foundation that took me years to cultivate and understand. I distill what works from what doesn't and show you how to problem solve for yourself in real time and stop relying on outdated and worthless methods.

Fad Diets are dead. DEAD.

Well, they should be. People are far too intelligent to get sucked into their marketing schemes. They claim to lose outrageous amounts of weight in short periods with little or no work. Or conversely to lose outrageous amounts of weight after paying some "expert" thousands of dollars. What most people don't know is the real secret behind fad diets, I will show you how to not buy into the hype in my course. 

IIFYM

This simple phrase that is changing the way people think about eating habits. However, it is not as simple as some would think. 

  • IIFYM Defined
  • Can I just eat candy all the time?!
  • It can't be that simple, can it?
  • How to use IIFYM positively vs negatively


Why should YOU take this course:

  1. Take this course if want to learn the fundamentals of nutrition and information I wish they taught me in school.
  2. Take this course if you are tired of losing weight in the short term but can't achieve long term success
  3. Take this course if you are a busy person who wants a simple, effective way to integrate weight loss into your life without sacrificing everything.
  4. Take this course if you are ready to change your life for the better! There is NO risk, only reward!

Here What you are Getting for free in this course:

  • Knowing Something vs Understanding It
  • The Most Important Factor in Weight Loss
  • What are Macro-nutrients? And...
  • How Many Calories Does Each Have?
  • What is IIFYM?
  • Diet vs Lifestyle: The KEY to Success
  • What are Fad Diets?

BONUS CONTENT: ENROLL NOW, WITHIN THE COURSE I WILL GIVE YOU INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO GET MORE FREE INFORMATION. I WILL ALSO PROVIDE YOU WITH SEVERAL WAYS TO GET IN TOUCH WITH ME PERSONALLY TO ANSWER YOUR BURNING PERSONAL QUESTIONS. 

What you need to complete this course:

  • Nothing other than a willingness to learn!

Who is the Target Audience:

  • Beginners, weekend warriors, and people who value knowledge!

Well, I expected a lot more content in the beginning but it turns out that this is simply a crash course. Considering that it is a crash course and free, the information put out is adequately summarized. He clearly knows what he is doing and is skilled at it. So, kudos, sire.

By Ron Taylor on 11/2/2021

By Fady Karam on 3/7/2021

It's a good view course of nutritions . but i expected more details on macros counting laws . what it depends on ? how many macro of protiens or carbs or fats percentage should be in diet for normal people and for bodybuilders and such things . thank you so much for give us your time and this useful course :)

By Wilbur Robinson on 3/28/2019

I a person who falls for every fad diet that pops up. Adkins, Paleo, Keto...I've tried everything and was puzzled why the scales kept going up...and up. This free course helped me understand what was happening...I realized it is simple math. If I could overdraw my checking account, I could lose weight. Happy day! I could eat carbs! This course left me hungry (pardon my pun) for more!

By Chase Nichols on 6/10/2018

It was an awesome course that helped me understand what MACROS are and their importance, I have already purchased number 2 and will be starting it soon! I was looking for something that would guide me in a healthy lifestyle change and not a diet! Thanks Nick!

The information in the course is great. The instructor is really engaging and has a wonderful voice and presentation style. I gave this rating because I liked the course but I felt like a little more introduction to the subject and background of the instructor was needed. I felt like I came into the course late and missed something. With respect to background, why are we talking about nutrition and weight management? Why does the instructor wish he'd learned this stuff in school? Why was he looking for this type of information? Did he have a chronic weight problem? Did he become interested in this information because he was "lifting"? I liked that the instructor was very specific in some areas (i.e. fad diets) and more neutral in other areas (i.e. Individualizing your plan based on your likes and needs). Overall, a great course but definitely need the second and third parts.

By Ioannis Deliakos on 11/12/2016

I did learn some valuable things and listened to some advice by the instructor. However, most of the times I wasn't able to hear his voice even though I had applied the maximum volume. There were also some long paragraphs of text inside the slides which are not suggested good practice for a presentation.

By Dese Zal on 9/1/2016

for me it was very informative. I didn't know a thing about IIFYM and always wondered why my diet plans aren't working. Now i have a better view of what i've been doing wrong and I hope to correct it. but this course is a good one

By SA3DX on 6/11/2016

I really liked the course. It really helped me understand why I lose and gain weight rapidly and why I can't moderate my diet. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants a basic understanding of how to lose weight efficiently and to maintain the weight they want. The only thing I'd like to criticize is that slides contained more specific details to the differences between different elements that I didn't notice. It could be a good idea to make the information provided in the slides (like the use of carbohydrates and meanings of different elements) as a cheat sheet to look at when we'd like to remember something from the course. Thank you for making this course.

By George on 6/2/2016

Nick is very personable and seems to know his stuff. I've completed the first 15 lectures, and I must say, I can't wait until the next section is delivered on Udemy. He has a great attitude about the subject, and he's totally interesting to listen to.
