The Pitfalls of Weight Loss Programs and Diets

The Pitfalls of Weight Loss Programs and DietsThe Pitfalls of Weight Loss Programs and DietsAuthor: Antonio LeMaireMost diet and weight loss programs have a depressingly high failure rate, with people either never reaching their weight goals or reaching them and regaining all the weight they lost (and sometimes more) in about one year. Getting the weight off fast is so desirable that many of us are willing to sacrifice health and ignore common sense in the hope that some new weight loss program or scheme will work. This pipe dream can unfortunately outweigh the negative consequences. So let's examine the downside of dieting.

The Pitfalls of Weight Loss Programs and DietsWhat Is An Unhealthy Weight Loss Program? * Any weight loss program that is not nutritionally sound; * One that works against what the body naturally needs like vitamins, minerals, and a minimum number of calories a day; * One that requires you to go without eating (for example, fasting or meal replacement drinks); * One that puts your body into an unnatural state, such as starvation or ketosis. Your body can only lose a few pounds a week on a consistent basis. If you lose more than that initially, it's likely just water loss. So any weight loss program that promises you will lose five pounds a week, or 25 pounds in 3 weeks, is guaranteeing you will be losing water and muscle mass not fat. Almost every popular weight loss program out there falls into one of the following diet categories: low calorie diets, meal replacement drinks, packaged foods, unbalanced nutrients, and ketosis diets.
