Best Diet For Weight Loss

Best Diet For Weight Loss

 

One of the most common questions for dieters is “What is the best diet for weight loss?”. With so much weight loss and diet information available, it is often difficult to distinguish which is the best diet for you. Should you pick a high protein, low carbohydrate diet? What about a low fatdiet? Maybe the Zone diet, the South Beach diet, or the Atkins diet will be right to you? Unfortunately, despite all the hype, I am here to tell you that it’s not really that important which of these diets you pick. In fact over the coming weeks I will teach you why sticking to one of these diets is probably a very bad idea. Worried? Don’t be. I will also show you how you can create a diet that works best for you (and only you). Let’s begin…

The reason that these diets are successful at the beginning is that you often have initial motivation, so you want to change, and they also provide you with a BLUEPRINT. These diets are also very clever by manipulating your calorie intake despite claims that you can “eat as much as you want”. They do this by fulfilling your sensory specific satiety, meaning that when you eat the same foods over and over, your brain simply gets bored and turns your “I’m full” signal on much sooner. Basically this means you don’t eat as much and thus you lose weight.

4 Key Reasons Why Changing Your Clothes Is Critical For Weight Loss Success

4 Key Reasons Why Changing Your Clothes Is Critical For Weight Loss Success

we are going to explain exactly why it is critical to your success.

1. Complacency: One of the major mistakes that dieters make is that they tend to get complacent at exactly the wrong time. Once your clothes fit better, you feel great and everybody begins to comment on how great that you look. As a reward you decide to indulge in your favorite treat. No big deal, you have been so good up to now, right? Unfortunately, an indulgence like this leads to a second, and then to a third, until finally, in a few days, you have undone all the hard work that you have done over the past few weeks. When you have decided that you want to lose weight, it is imperative that you NEVER get complacent. Being thin is a lifestyle, and it is difficult to change your whole life in a few weeks. Change takes time, and just because you lose weight, does not mean that you lose vulnerability.

Are Low-Fat Foods Making You Fat?

Are Low-Fat Foods Making You Fat?

Why foods stripped of fat can actually cause you to pack on the pounds.

Picture this: You’re in the snack aisle of the grocery store and as your hand is reaching for the Pepperidge Farm Milano Cookies you remember your upcoming tropical vacation, your new bikini and the fact that your sister-in-law (whose baby weight “just fell right off”) will also be there. So instead your hand makes a swift move to the right and grabs the fat-free chocolate cookies instead.

It sounds logical—you eat low-fat foods, you lose weight—but studies show that the opposite is more likely.

That’s because sticking a low-fat label on food can trick you into believing that tasty bag of cookies is better for you than the full-fat version. “People automatically perceive low-fat and fat-free products as healthier or lower in calories, so they don’t worry as much about watching their portions,” explains Joy Bauer, R.D., nutrition and health expert for NBC’s “Today” show. “And food companies know this so they try to use this to their advantage when labeling products. But just because a product is low in fat doesn’t mean you have carte blanche to eat as much as you want…those calories still count!”
