Find The Right Diet For Your Health

By Ali Bautista

If you were to make your top ten list of fun things to do, most people would not include dieting.

Eating correctly should not make you miserable. A good eating plan will allow you to have balanced meals as well as healthy snacks.

The amount of food that you can eat and lose weight is based on your BMI. Just do a quick search online to find a BMI calculator. Fill in a few blanks and submit for the results. The number that is returned is the number of calories you can eat each day and remain at your present weight. If you reduce that number by only ten percent, then you will begin to lose weight.

It is important that you not reduce your calories so severely that you body begins to think that there is a famine. This will cause your body to reduce the number of calories that it uses and begin to store every available ounce of fat possible. When you begin to eat normally again, your will gain back more weight than you lost during your diet. This is the reason that so many of the fad eating plans do not work.

The USDA has some tool that will help you to plan a balanced eating plan. One such tool is the food pyramid. It helps you to know those foods you should try to eat more often and those you should avoid most of the time. Remember that in moderation, you can have almost any food.

Some people enjoy the six meal eating plan. In this plan snacks are replaced by small meals and normal meals are smaller so that overall, the calorie count remains the same. The advantage of this plan is that blood sugars are regulated and the crash of a famished dieter does not have to be filled with binge eating.

Your BMI will change as you lose weight. After a significant weight loss, you may need to adjust your calories consumed.

Following the above will help you to achieve the diet results that you want. - 17269
