Debunking The Top 4 Myths Of Weight Loss

By Lelondez McQuiston

One of the biggest reasons that people have such a hard time losing weight is because there is so much information that is inaccurate and misleading. Almost everybody has read an article that advised how to lose weight effectively and then read another article that gives information that completely contradicts what you read moments before.

All this misleading information does nothing more than create misconceptions that end up making the entire situation very confusing. In order to clear things up, let's cut through all the unneeded and unwanted myths, so that you can start to lose weight in the best possible way.

1. Weight Loss Needs to be Complicated

No matter what others tell you, there is nothing complicated about losing weight. Actually, the reason people view weight loss as complicated is because there is so much bad information out there that it looks like it is.

Some of the most effective weight loss programs are those that are simple. All the unneeded extras and frill do nothing more than complicate things and provide no real benefits.

2. Crash Diets Are the Best Way to Lose Weight Fast

The next thing we are going to talk about is those crash or fad diets that we've all heard about and probably tried. There are all kinds of diets that pop up that are usually a spin off from a previous diet with a few extra things added to make it unique.

Almost all of these diets never work, and if they do, their results are temporary and reversible and any weight that you lose will end up coming back very quickly with a vengeance.

3. All Types of Fat is Bad For You

While it's true that fat does contain more calories than others, and certain types of fat are likely to be stored as fat in the body, this doesn't mean you have to avoid them. The fact is, fats are the best way to make you feel 'full' faster, thus preventing you from overeating.

The trans fats are bad for you and should be avoided, but you don't have to stay away from all fat.

4. In Order To Diet You Need to Measure Every Calorie Consumed and Burnt

This is another thing that is completely false. It is true that you have to cut calories when you are dieting, but there is no need to be precise and count every single calorie that you consume. You also don't have to account for the precise number of calories that you burn.

Instead, just eat a healthy and wholesome diet, while still keeping a low calorie count, and you'll do great.

Now that you know that all these four myths are exactly that - myths, you can now lose weight knowing that it's quite simple and uncomplicated without any need for any fancy diet programs or designer diet pills. All you need is a bit of knowledge and some will power to see your program through to its finish. You'll soon find you're losing weight easier and better than ever! - 17269
