Diets Don't Work

Diets don't work.

There is more confusion about how to eat than any other aspect of health. The media focuses on the latest fad diet: high protein and low fat this day, low protein and high carb the next; low carb high protein; moderate fat, moderate protein and so on. No wonder people are confused.

Then it gets worse, We hear about the grapefruit diet, the cabbage soup diet, the all-bran diet, the starvation diet, the drink my drink and look gorgeous tomorrow diet. It is enough to make your head swim.

The facts are really simple. On any diet you will lose weight temporarily. Then it will all come back unless there is a lifestyle change. This has been shown over and over again in rigorous scientific research. Most people refuse to believe this. They want a quick fix or a magic pill. They want to starve their body so that they will burn up the fat. This is wrong. Food is not the enemy. You must feed your body the energy it needs to live and to be strong.

If you eat the proper foods and the proper combinations, you can eat just about as much as you want. The weight will come off naturally. you can actually eat more food and still lose weight. In order to maximize results you need to exercise a bit and you need to learn to eat mindfully.
