My Top 3

by Cathy Maree

Persons who need to lose weight are constantly searching for diets that work. The trick isn’t really finding a diet plan that works, but rather finding a diet to which a person can stick. The 46.8 billion dollar diet industry (as of 2005) depends not on people staying healthy and staying thin, but rather on people taking an endless roller coaster ride between health and fat. Because the money comes from repeat business, the focus is surely on the roller coaster reality of bad living followed by short stints of diets and health programs.

Here’s a fat loss diet that sheds pounds. Combine limiting caloric intake to 1000 calories a day with at least 30 minutes of exercise at least 5 days a week. That diet will result in shedding weight. Only two small things.

The first is that cravings are prone to foil the diet. 1000 calories and all that exercise will eventually lead to huge hunger and binge eating. One piece of cake, or just one bag of chips, or one extra hot dog will soon cause you to dropping off the diet.

#2 the diet eventually finishes. You soon go back to eating the identical old way. Next beach season, or next fancy dress party, or next vacation, or simply the next time you glance at a looking glass on the way out of the bathroom it will be time to return to a diet to lose the unwanted pounds.

The best fat loss is one making a change to overall diet, forever. More and more people are coming to realize that to lose weight it’s best to make a whole lifestyle change, including healthier eating habits and more exercise. Connie Guttersen created the Sonoma Diet which, as a base, discusses ten power foods.

These are almonds, bell peppers, blueberries, broccoli, grapes, olive oil, spinach, strawberries, tomatoes and whole grains, combined with the diet of the Sonoma country, which includes Asian, Latin American and Mediterranean foods and dishes. The diet includes a wide selection of real, and enjoyable foods so it’s easy to stay on it .

Want a diet that works? Move your mind from a short term diet to permanent eating habits that go along with an overall healthy and active lifestyle. That’s the way to not only lose the weight, but to avoid gaining it in the first place.
