Let’s Take A Closer Look At A Fast Weight Loss Diet
 |
I’m probably very much like you in a lot of ways because of the fact that you are reading this, and are thinking about starting a fast weight loss diet to lose those disgusting extra pounds that you have been carrying around for years. I have dieted my rear end off (literally and figuratively) for many many years now, and I am sick of always being overweight. I started searching for something else.
Well, I’ve checked out all kinds of fast weight loss diet plans, and believe me when I say, they are no picnic and some of them are downright scary. Who wants to starve to lose weight, or eat nothing but vegetable soup 24/7, or only drink black coffee day after day. I’ve read up a lot on all this weight loss business, and most of it is hype and can be very dangerous to your overall health. Especially when you start throwing in all those chemicals to speed up your metabolism and curb your appetite; some of us just can’t handle all that chemical garbage.
When you cut back your intake of food drastically, your body sends out an APB to all its parts telling them to stop running at the speed they are now at, and slow down, conserve, don’t overdo it, we “ain’t gittin” enough food to stay at this speed. So, your metabolism slows down, your poor body has to shut down its natural design for operation, and conform to a starvation mode of operation. Sure, you’ll lose weight, but you can’t stay on a starvation diet forever, so once you abandon the fast weight loss diet, you are now ready to put those pounds back on big time—–and put them on you will, every time.
And something else to remember is that you may have underlying medical problems that you don’t know about, and a diet like this that is so severe and so taxing on your system, will sometimes aggravate a problem that up to this point you did not know existed and you could suffer a stroke or even a heart attack. That’s what all the hullaballoo was about with ephedrine and the number of people that suffered serious side effects and death from using it to speed up their systems.
So what are we going to do about this dilemma of how fast to take this weight off, and the potential side effects of using a fast weight loss diet. For one thing, most nutritionists do not recommend these quickie fix types of diets because they put a strain on your being, both physical and mental, and they usually do not work very well. Oh sure, you will lose weight if you starve yourself; but that’s not a smart way to approach this. Your body is a marvelous machine, designed by Nature to run a certain way, and if it took you years to pile all this unwanted weight on, then you should take it off the same way—-you chowed down one burger and fries at a time and had a wonderful time—-and now it’s time to get out the lettuce leaves and have at it.
Take for example, one of the fast weight loss diet plans that is out there and very popular today. It is the one where you are under the care of a physician and get weekly shots of vitamins and who knows what else, while you are on a diet of almost no food that would make an ant weep. You are basically following a starvation diet, and forcing your body to pull its fat reserves for fuel, and as a result you lose weight. But, wait a minute. Before you run down to the nearest clinic—-ask anyone who has done these diets, which are quite expensive, by the way; are they still slim and trim and sans the extra weight? Almost always, you will find the answer is no, because they have not learned to eat and live differently from before, just starved the weight off and now it is back on.
When someone tells you they lost tons of weight on a fast weight loss diet where they ate nothing but cabbage soup 24/7; or ate almost nothing but grapefruit and black coffee—don’t listen to them. These diets are dangerous and loopy—they ruin the wonderful way the body works when left to its own devices, you just need to stop putting so much food in your mouth and exercise a little more—-and be patient—-the weight will come off in its own good time.
