Busting Those Diets - Disproving those Diet Plans That Just Don't Succeed

By Josh Wintrop

Books for children and popular urban legends are not the only fountainhead of myths. Myths are also perpetuated by the weight loss industry and you can find them by reading some popular diet plans!

It's almost like some of these so-called diet books were really just fantasy books written about a big, magic diet weight loss granting genie. Don't get hooked on these fantasy stories and myths!

If you believe these myths, then you will not be able to lose fat. Worse, you are actually harming your body because some ineffective diet plans and programs do not have any scientific basis at all.

If you're interested in losing weight, here's some of the most popular weight lost lies that you need to keep away from. Don't get caught in these web of weight loss lies, just read through this list so you can avoid the fads and get on the right track to healthy living.

1) You need special, expensive equipment to exactly measure and meticulously prepare everything you eat or your diet won't be effective. Many people think you need to count calories, draw graphs, take averages and tailor your diet to your daily metabolism at every meal.

The truth however is much simpler. The simplest diet plan is the one that will work well. If you restrict your diet, then you are doomed to fail. The key to an effective diet plan is easy implementation. And what could be easier than a simple meal plan everyday.

Another myth that a lot of diet plans espouse is that you gain weight because of the things you're eating, as opposed to how much you're eating. This is probably caused by diet-fad-guru's twisted idea of how nutrition works.

The key to weight loss is to lose calories. You have to create a deficit in your calorie consumption in order not to accumulate fat. This means that if you consume more calories than you can burn, then you will become the heavyweight fat champion of the world. You need to burn calories. By doing so, you are not allowing the fats to stay in your body.

The third myth that fad diet's uphold is that you should never fast. Now, fasting can be harmful to you, yes. Starving yourself is not usually a good thing. But, there's a big difference between starving yourself, and simply not eating because you know that you're not really hungry.

Your brain will make you want food, whether or not you really need it, like an addiction. So even if you're full, when dinner time comes around you'll start wanting to eat. You're not hungry, you're just addicted to eating - conditioned to operate in a certain fashion.

When you develop techniques to control your food cravings you have gained powerful tools to fight against unwanted fat. A flexible fasting program helps you eliminate the cravings due to food addiction and better control your calorie intake.

Remember, there are lots of dieting myths out there. Keep track of which of these diets are chock full of nonsense and which give you real solid information so that you can start eating and living a healthier, happier life! - 17274
