The word ‘diet’ automatically initiates a
form of restrictive eating in order to lose weight – As far as it goes YES you
will lose weight when you go on a ‘diet’ but in 95% of scenarios by using this
method alone you will regain back that weight plus some. WHY? Because it is a
temporary fix for a long term outcome, meaning it won’t sustain you in the long
term due to it usually restricting certain macronutrients which are essential
for proper functioning in the body. Here
is a few key points on why diets don’t work:
·
Not only can fad diets be
harmful to your wellbeing but they usually lack essential nutrients for our
functioning and even worse THEY TEACH YOU NOTHING ABOUT HEALTHY EATING AS A
WHOLE!
·
And then there’s the BS
marketing of “diet” products, but if you read the fine print closely it usually
suggests a healthy diet and exercise for best results – in other words, if you
eat well and exercise regularly you don’t need this magic potion but buy it
anyway! SKIP THE CRAP – STOP WASTING YOUR MONEY and just commit to a healthier
lifestyle to see the results.
·
There is nothing wrong with
wanting to lose weight, but don’t go crazy in developing bad habits such as
trying fad diets or skipping meals because these are just unhealthy and
unmethodical to your wellbeing, both physically and emotionally. Simply start by controlling portion sizes and
perhaps cutting back on your “must haves” such as chocolate or soft drink,
halve it then halve it again, this is an excellent start to developing a healthy
habit to weight loss, the best thing you can do is LOSE THE DIET MINDSET!
Yes it sounds cliché and no it’s not the answer you were probably
hoping for but I can guarantee you, skipping the diets and investing in your
health and wellbeing will be the best thing that will yield the results you so
truly desire.
