Bad, Bad Weight Loss Diets
First, understand that there's no such thing as "good" food or "bad" food. Any food that isn't poison and to which you aren't allergic is a good food. Diets, on the other hand, come in several varieties. There are good diets; bad diets; and bad, BAD diets.
The human body requires certain nutrients in order to function correctly. It needs vitamins, minerals, and trace elements that keep all of the parts clicking along and all of the pipes clear and in good working order. When the body is denied the needed nutrients, it first looks around to any of the missing elements that might be stored. If it finds none stored, it simply cannot supply the needed nutrient to the organs that need it, and the results aren't pretty.
A good weight loss diet provides healthy, nutritious foods that supply all of the body's needs while supplying fewer calories. Needed nutrients come from a diet that contains, protein, carbohydrates and fat yes, fat. We need some fat the good kind, however; not the bad kind.
A good weight loss diet is not a starvation diet. It's not a diet that leaves the dieter constantly hungry and unsatisfied. It's not a diet that consists of only one food, one or two foods, or a diet that leaves one food group completely out.
There are lots and lots of weight loss diets out there. You can't pick up a newspaper or a magazine, or turn on the TV, without seeing advertisements for one weight loss diet or another. There are a great many choices, and in order to choose wisely, you need information.
Good weight loss diets will include foods from all of the food groups. Granted, the portions allowed in some food groups might be much smaller than those allowed from other food groups. But a good diet also advocates exercise. There are two parts to weight loss. Eating fewer calories is one of them. The other one is burning more calories through exercise.
BONUS : Behavior Modification And Obesity
Obesity is often compared to the other chronic diseases such as heart disease. Research states that if it can be caught in time, it can be treated. People who are following treatment must be consistent. Those individuals that are obese and severely obese are going to have to take a much larger effort for them to change.
It is not only a complete lifestyle change but it is also a physical and psychological change. They have to change the way they think of themselves and about food. It can be very hard for them to do and follow on a continual basis. For it to work, the individual has to want to change. No one can force the person to change. Obesity is not something that one gets over night. Obesity is the cumulative effect of years and years, sometimes ones whole lifetime, of overeating for various reasons.
It is often recommended that those seeking the lifestyle change seek professional assistance as well. Part of a good weight loss program is behavior modification. It is often a change to the strategies one uses when one tries to get the motivation to do physical activity or eat properly.
Most of these programs include self-moderation by using a food journal. In a food journal, the dieter is responsible for writing down every single piece of food and drink they consume over a 24 hour period, every day. It is also suggested they keep an exercise journal as well, detailing walks, taking the steps instead of the elevator, and any other forms of exercise. This allows the dieter to actually see what they are eating and doing. Many people do not realize how much they eat over a 24 hr period. By keeping these journals, it makes the person consciously aware of it.
Trying to change the way you eat, the way you even think about food is hard. Millions of people try every year and fail. Some are successful, but the failures far outweigh the successes. That is why behavior modification is necessary.
People have to learn that they can no longer fall back on food as a crutch when they are feeling stressed, depressed, and/or anxious. They can turn to other ways to relieve these emotions. Hopefully this will help them to stop making unrealistic and unattainable goals. People need to realize they can reward themselves for small successes and not always beat themselves up and struggle 100% of the time.
Through behavior modification and therapy, people struggling with obesity can come up with a plan that allows for success. This plan should include things like including their own personal beliefs and history, working in conjunction and frequently with a doctor/ nutritionist/ or other health care provider, keeping personal journals, setting attainable and realistic goals, allowing appropriate rewards, and focusing on what is important. Joining a support group, such as Overeaters Anonymous or Weight Watchers, can often offer a lot of emotional support when trying to get through the hard times.
