Lose Weight

There are many fad diets out there, like Adkins or the Zone diet to help you lose weight. Even crash dieting is quite popular with many people. But eating cabbage soup for a week does not seem healthy nor fun. Doing these diets may show results quickly, but in the end after you stop the diet you tend to gain all the weight back that you lost and sometimes even more.

According to the web site, www.netdoctor.co.UK the body will respond better to a gradual change in diet and exercise. The likelihood of gaining the weight back by doing this is slim. One important factor to consider is that in order to lose weight you must decrease the intake of daily calories and increase physical activity. A tip from netdoctor.co.UK says, “Think of weight loss in terms as permanently changing your eating habits.” This a beneficial tip because in the moment you want to lose weight, but remember in the long term that you want to keep the weight off. In order to lose weight, cutting out 300 to 500 calories a day will lead to losing an average of 1 to 2 pounds a week (www.netdoctor.co.UK). An article, by Diane Lofshult stated, that adults who check nutrition labels when grocery shopping had lower fat diets and cholesterol compared to adults who did not read nutrition labels (IDEA Fitness Journal). In addition, adults that read the nutrition facts had an easier time losing weight or maintaining their weight (Lofshult, IDEA Fitness Journal).
