Weight Loss Programs
There exist many weight loss programs and the number grows daily. New magic diets which promise an even quicker and simpler weight loss.
Don’t you also ask yourself: If they are that effective why do we need always new programs? Read here which weight loss programs are really effective.
Population overweight is steadily growing
It is estimated that 60% Of US adults are overweight or obese. Nearly 1% of
the population becomes obese each year. Not only Americans are understandably concerned
about, if not obsessed with, losing weight or maintaining weight loss.
Big Weight loss Industrie
Here's a shocking fact. The largest chain of national weight-loss centers does over 75% of its postal mail business to former members who have been through their program two or three times. These people have put all the weight they lost back on - plus a little extra. They can be sold again and again.
If the popular diets haven't worked before for you, chances are they never will. But that doesn't stop the weight loss industry from cranking out new ones year after year. Even worse, new life is being pumped into old diets that didn't work twenty years ago.
The bad Jo-Jo effect!
With Crash diets your body gets used to utilize food even better. When you eat your usual food after dieting you’ll get back your old weight and often even more. caution. If you are a Chronic yo-yo dieter please be aware that extreme weight gain and loss can take a toll on healthy organs.
What was more shocking for me, you lose with crash diets important protein from your muscels while regaining fat. As fat is lighter than muscel mass, you get even fatter after dieting than before. And that’s also true although you maybe regained exact those pounds you lost. On top it happens sometimes also a mental jo-jo effect. You breed and develop special Food Cravings - for food, you abandoned while on diet.
We already have effective diets
The search for an optimal diet plan is almost a national pastime, yet fewer than 20% of
those attempting to lose weight follow the most widely recommended weight-control
diets—low in saturated fats and high in fruits, vegetables, and high-fiber-containing carbohydrates. This, in spite of considerable evidence
that these diets are safe and effective for
losing weight, maintaining weight loss, and
promoting health.
Everyday food choices throughout your life
Diets are not followed for 7 days,
7 weeks, or 7 months, but rather form the
basis of everyday food choices throughout
their life. A diet high in vegetables, fruits,
complex carbohydrates (whole grains and
legumes), and low-fat dairy is a moderate-fat,
low-calorie diet that prevents weight gain,
results in weight loss and weight maintenance.
It is associated with fullness and satiety.
It reduces risk of chronic disease. It is fast, convenient, and inexpensive.
