It’s a myth. Here’s the truth about the most popular diets…
Low-fat diets don’t work.
All these programs claim that foods low in fat work; however, the reality of it is that they don’t work. It’s not your solution to lose weight.
Low-Calorie Plans backfire.
Low calorie diets don’t work either. It’s actually not very healthy for your body. When it comes to burning fat, your system is much slower with the low calorie diets. You’ll lose weight at the beginning but then you will suddenly notice that you aren’t losing weight anymore. Always remember, that a low calorie intake is practically depriving yourself of food – not allowing you to lose weight the healthy way.
In fact, after a while, the combination of low-grade starvation and stress will trigger an anti-stress hormone that makes your body horde calories as fat around the belly. Exactly the opposite of what you want.
Low-Carb Diets Decrease Your Energy.
The main problem with low-carb diets is that the instructions are very difficult for the average person to follow. Your hunger betrays you, and so does your busy schedule. How much time do you have for reading the labels on the loaves of bread in the store? How much time do you want to devote to counting carbs and fat in your salad dressing?
Jenny Craig and Weight Watchers succeed…as long as you keep buying their food, weighing yourself, and sticking to the programs.
Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, and Nutri-System require you to purchase special foods and carefully monitor your food intake. They usually promise you will lose only two-to-three pounds per week. And, often, if you stop following their programs and buying their special food, you will regain not only all the weight you lost but extra pounds, too.
Yes, the programs work…if you let them dominate you and own your entire consciousness. If you thought you were obsessed with food before you started your diet, the programs will teach you the true meaning of “obsessed with food.”
It seems as though your whole life begins to revolve around your weight loss program and the more you diet, the more you feel like you’re sacrificing.
