Dieting can be tricky sometimes. Some people suggest eating low fat foods but we find low fat foods usually have more sugar. Other people say avoid sugar. But when we avoid sugar we may end up with more fat. Regardless of the type of food we eat, if we eat too much we will get and stay fat.
When we eliminate types of food totally from one diet we may feel deprived and cheated. We also run the risk of not getting a nutritionally balanced diet so we will eliminate groups of food or types of food. It is important to know there are good fats as well as bad fats in foods.
If we drastically reduce our intake of calories or skip meals we may end up tricking our body into storing fat. When you skip a meal or drastically cut back calories your body metabolism slows down as if you where starving. Skipping meals can back fire causing you to overeat later when you feel famished. When you are over hungry you are also more likely to make bad food choices. A salad will not seem to be able to fill your need. When you are over hungry you also tend to eat faster and consume more food than you need before you recognize that you are full.
You may have a special event for which you want to slim down. Remember that weight loss is a gradual process and there are no safe short cuts. It is also more likely to keep weight off if you take it off more slowly and sensibly and use a proven and save weight loss plan.
