Fat - Why You Shouldn't Eliminate It from Your Diet
 

With the media hype around fat, many people seem to focus on fat
burning techniques, while others seem calories to be the ultimate
factor in weight loss. The truth is, one goes with the other: you
cannot burn fat if you're not cutting calories. For people who are
trying to completely eliminate fat from their diet, they're probably
taking a first class ticket to failure.
What many people seem to ignore is that carbohydrates play an
important role in this weight gain. Even if we cut our fat intake, we
still gain weight because of bread, pasta, and rice. Can you go for a
week without eating those? Before considering the fat, one should
consider how to cure his carbohydrates addiction, since at the end of
the day; you're most likely to binge on a piece of bread than on meat.
If we're going to discuss fat, we'll have to dissect the two different
fats so we can understand better what's good and bad for us. Starting
off with what's good for you, there's the fat in cheese and meat, in
which the concentration is quite low. On the other hand, anything
fried has a higher concentration of fat in it, consequently,
endangering your health. If you must eat those foods every now and
then, make sure you watch your portions.
You might be thinking, what about oils? Oils such as olive, sesame,
and soy are good for your health. They are low in saturated fat and
therefore are safe for you to use. However, as mentioned above, don't
go crazy with the oil. What you should definitely avoid is oil
alternatives - they are bad for your health. If you must use a
substitute for oil, let's say you're out of oil, use butter instead of
margarine.
For those with fatty diets, the chances are you have diabetes, heart
conditions, and even bone problems. Not to mention, if an obese person
was to host cancerous cell, it will be harder to notice it in the
early stages. Another factor that would result from fatty diets is the
quality of your skin: it will become oilier, prone to acne, and marked
by purple stretch marks.
The gist of this isn't to make you cut the fat or the carbohydrates;
it is just a general guideline for you to balance the two. Eliminating
one won't help the weight loss, but instead it will impede its
progress. So make sure you skip the fries and also go easy on the
bread.
