6 Week Body Makeover - Diets Make You Fat

By Rico Kidd

Diets do not work. Learning to eat right is the best way to lose weight. When you diet, your metabolism slows down as it thinks you are starving. When your metabolism decreases, every calorie you consume burns slower and turns into fat storage.

When dieting, your body thinks your starving. You know that you're not starving, but your body is programmed to store fat regardless of what you think is right for your body. Your brain thinks that there is not enough food, which triggers the metabolism to slow down and store fat for fuel.

Eating less actually does not help your body. Some people who diet might gain weight, rather than lose weight. The reason is that once your metabolism has established itself in "starvation mode", you will burn fewer calories and store more body fat.

Eating more meals (and smaller portions) will actually make you lose more weight. The reason is that when you eat more meals, your brain thinks that food is abundant and will not trigger the survival mode effect. If your body is not in survival mode, you will burn calories faster and this will lead to weight loss.

Training your metabolism to get out of survival mode will benefit you in the long run. Matter of fact, you will be able to eat fatty foods (once in awhile) and you will still lose weight. Unlike traditional diets, once you learn how to eat correctly, even having a slice of pizza or a beer once in awhile won't hurt your weight loss goals. - 17269
