Everyone in cryptocurrency have their own ideas, goals and mindset when it comes to investing in cryptocurrency. Losing weight may not be so different.

If losing weight is a goal of yours, remember that the philosophy is the same and you need to know where you stand. Here are 6 different approaches to losing weight using the mentality of cryptocurrency users.

Types of Crypto Users/Weight-losers:

1. Newbies:

They don’t know what’s the right way of doing it. They want to get six-pack abs without thinking it through. They spend a lot of energy or very few.
They embark on the journey with no strategy, They eat salad once in a while, sometimes avoid the extra piece of pizza, then the rest of the week is spent daydreaming. They are ready to give up and cash out at any emotional volatility.

In the end they either become lucky or go no where at all.

This is how most people start, but once they have learnt from their mistakes they begin to define their objectives.

2. Traders:

They check their caloric chart everyday. Weigh in everything and log each piece of energy in & out. They follow the If It Fits Your Macro (IIFYM) Mantra. That means they can eat any food as long as it is within their caloric limit. It takes some effort in counting and planning.

7700 calories to burn 1 kg or 2 pounds of fat
Daily Calories = caloric intake - caloric expenditure

Traders are not scared to trade food with bad reputation because:

• They know their limits.
• They know they can still lose weight if they stick to the rules
• They don’t follow their emotions when eating
• They eat when their caloric intake is low, exercise when it’s high

They can eat pizza, poptarts, ice-cream, fast food and all sort of shttcoins and still be able to stack up their gains in the end.
This approach can give you results but may not be the best investment for the long run. People counting calories may stay hungry a lot, be obsessed with food and develop binging/starving behaviour.

3. Long term Investors:

These are the smart type they think about the long run, they read a lot about what they are investing in. They are not here to go, they are here to stay.

They are not obsessed about when they are going to obtain their Six-Pack Abs, or their daily calories.

They read the white papers of Good-habits and know why they invested.

• Fruits
• Vegetables
• Berries
• Greens
• Nuts & Seeds
• Beans
• Whole Grains
• Exercise
• Sunshine
• Meditation

They have been buying Good-habits all along and slowly building up their health balance.
While they may not be able to get their $ix-Pack Abs as soon as traders do, they know that Health token is the sleeping giant which can only be bought using Good-habits . It will be more valuable than anything else out there.

4. TheOnlycoiners:

People who believe their diet is the only one diet for losing weight. This type is commonly seen as a subtype of Investors affected by a hard fork.

Commonly seen among:

• Vegans
• Raw foodist
• Paleoers
• Atkiners
• Mediterranean dietters
• Weight Watchers
• Blood type dietter
• ... etc.

They all can have great success partly due to a simple correlation. The more you believe in your crypto, the more it's likely to succeed. Also called Placebo.

5. TheAllCoiners:

This type emerges usually to bridge the Newbies to other types.
They either tried every diet or are on every diet. Therefore, their chances of success and failure cancel each other out.

6. The Fiat type:

This type doesn’t believe in this whole fake crypto weight loss tips and they prefer holding their real comfort and tangible weight not caring about their own continuous inflation.

In short, people with this mentality aren't even in the game! They watch and live to tell the stories of others's success.

I think I may be in this particular type for the holidays, waiting like the rest for the new years resolution (Notice how "i" am the letter difference between fiat and fat).
