Weight Loss Diet - Eat to Lose Weight
More than deadlines to meet and clients to satisfy, the pressure
to look good is far more intense these days. Women hanker after
hourglass figures and men need to be Greek Gods. It is no wonder
that every second person on the street is on a weight loss diet.
Weight loss diet is the topic of conversation in public places,
private parties, on buses and cabs, by the beach and the dinner
table.
Before you plunge in to any form of weight loss diet, few issues
need to be sorted out. Embarking on a diet to lose weight
doesn't mean indiscriminate slashing of calories. It is true
that you need to cut down on the calories but at the same time,
you cannot compromise on your nutritional intake.
There are representatives from all the food groups in an ideal
weight loss diet plan to ensure that all forms of nutrients
enter your body. So there are actually not many don'ts in a
weight loss diet. However, you need to steer clear of junk,
fried and fast foods, chocolates, candies, cakes and aerated
drinks.
Proteins form the building blocks of your body and as much they
form the prime ingredient in any lose weight diet plan. One gram
of protein per pound of body weight is recommended for every
individual whether you lead an active or sedentary life. Meats,
sea fish, milk and egg whites are good protein sources.
Any weight loss diet plan will advise you to go green. Fruits
and vegetables abound in minerals and vitamins and are low on
calories too. Gorging on them will make you healthy, without
making your calorie intake spiral out of control.
While harping on the theme of a weight loss diet, a myth needs
to be expounded. All fats are not bad. Fishes and nuts are
excellent sources of good fats.
Open any newspaper or magazine and you will find a weight loss
diet plan peeking at you from every nook and cranny. But most
overlook the role of water.
Water is life and in your diet to lose weight, water should be
the backbone. Water flushes out the toxins from your body and
revitalizes you. Deprive yourself of water and you will soon
find your entire mental as well as physical states in shambles.
In essence, a weight loss diet plan counsels having all types of
food, but moderation should be the key. Gorging and starving are
equally bad. Mix and match your foods so that your taste buds
are not weary and be sure to have 1200-1500 calories daily.
The path to a perfect figure is waylaid with temptations in the
form of fad diets, single-food diets, protein and liquid diets.
Each one claims to be a fast weight loss diet. There are no
shortcuts to losing weight and their tall claims should be taken
with a pinch of salt.
The perfect weight loss diet aims to keep you healthy while
endowing you with a flattering figure.
