Weight Loss and Some Reasons Why Diets Fail

By Ricardo d Argence

One look at the diet industry will tell you that millions of people are trying to lose weight every day and failing. You know they are failing by the sheer number of new products that comes on to the market every day. There are many reasons why diets fail, and here we will look at a few.

Entire food groups are off limits in the majority of today's popular diets. No, fat diets, diets with no carbs and some diets with no food at all! Surprisingly many people are unable to attain weight loss.

In order for our multifaceted bodies to properly operate, numerous nutrients are needed. Usually your body will react negatively when a food group is eliminated and weight loss will not occur.

Losing little weight and getting hardly any nutrients, starvation diets are worse. That is because your body will go into what is known as starvation mode. If your body detects that you are no eating, then it automatically slows down your metabolism and increases it efforts to store body fat. This is to prevent you from dying under extreme circumstances. You potentially may be at risk for health problems even if you are able to surpass your body's initial objections.

To lose weight effectively you will need to maintain a healthy balanced diet. This means that you must partake of all the food groups. The better approach is to limit your portion size, this way you are getting nutrients while cutting caloric intake.

Fad diets have a large following because many of them claim you can lose weight without any type of exercise. This is plainly false, you must consume less than you expend and to do this while getting proper amounts of nutrients require some form of exercise. It does not have to be extreme exercise, anything that raises your heart rate and increases oxygen intake will suffice. Our bodies were not made to be sedentary they need movement.

Aside from any kitchen sink, there are many useful and effective ways that are considered as the greatest aid of losing weight. Your body is composed of mostly water, about 61.8%. It is undeniable the water is very vital for proper body function. It is only the maintenance amount that the recommended daily allowance of water is eight 8-ounce glasses, but if you do any type of strenuous activity or perspire a lot you will need to take in more fluids.

To create a healthy weight loss program you should bring all the elements above together. Eat properly, exercise regularly and drink plenty of water and you have the best weight loss plan on the planet. - 17269
