Is There a Diet that Really Works?

 

David Wolfe: Best Raw Food Diet

Those who need to lose weight are continually searching for diets that work. It’s not really difficult to find weight loss plans that are effective, but finding a program a person can stick to is the issue. The diet industry is very large. Including books, diet food programs, trainers and nutritionists, spas, and all the other parts of the health and diet industry a lot of money, over 46.8 billion dollars in 2005, is made not from people becoming healthy or losing weight, but rather from people attempting to become healthy or lose weight. Because the money comes from repeat business, the focus is surely on the up and down reality of un-healthy living followed by short stints of diets and health programs.

So you want a diet that works? Here’s one. Combine limiting caloric intake to 1000 calories a day with at least 30 minutes of exercise at least 5 days a week. That diet will result in losing weight. But there are two problems. The first is that cravings will ruin the diet. 1000 calories and all that exercise will eventually lead to massive hunger and binge eating. First it’s a potato chip or slice of cake, then it’s an extra hot dog and the whole bag of chips, and then the diet is ended. #2 the diet eventually ends. You soon go back to eating the identical old way. Next beach season, or next time to wear that dress or tuxedo, or next family trip, or simply the next time you look into a mirror on the way out of the shower it will be time to return to a diet to lose the unwanted pounds.

The best diet is one making a change to overall diet, permanently. A lifestyle change to healthier eating habits and more exercise is the best way to lose weight and keep off the unwanted pounds. The Sonoma Diet, created by Connie Guttersen, focuses on 10 “power foods.” The power foods are almonds, bell peppers, blueberries, broccoli, grapes, olive oil, spinach, strawberries, tomatoes and whole grains, combined with the cuisine of the Sonoma country, which includes Asian, Latin American and Mediterranean influences. The diet is full of real food, and real portions, combined into enjoyable dishes to help motivate someone to stay with it .

Want a diet that works for healthy weight loss? Shift the focus away from a short term diet to a long term style that’s part of an overall healthy and active lifestyle. That’s the way to not only lose the weight, but to avoid gaining it in the first place.
