A bad way to lose weight

29/04/2009 by admin.

In my humble opinion many weight loss methods don’t work.  Yes, in many cases, you do lose weight whilst you follow them but what happens when you come off the programme?  In the majority of cases, the weight piles back on (sounds familiar?).   There are few programmes that you can follow for eternity as so many of these weight loss methods are not practical for day to day life.

Why is this?  It’s because many of these methods that work with points systems or by avoiding certain food types teach you little or nothing about managing your own diet.  Eg. you can still eat that cake provided you are within your daily points although that cake will provide you with only short term energy whilst your body stores the excess sugar as fat.  

That’s why I don’t agree with dieting.  I believe it is important for people to get into a lifestyle of eating that they can continue going forward.  I work on a basis of providing you with the knowledge that you need to manage your own diet and getting you into a good routine, eating the right things at the right times.   That is not to say that you can never eat cake again but it’s a cake of consuming good foods 80-90% of the time.
