Default Weight Loss Facts

Low Fat Foods DON'T WORK.
You cannot lose weight using Low Fat Diets. Low fat foods have been
popular for more than 15 years, but yet our society is getting more
overweight as each year passes. This fact alone should tell you that
eating a purely low fat menu is not the answer to losing weight.
Low Calorie Diets DON'T WORK.
You won't lose weight using a Low Calorie Dieting Plan either. In
fact, eating low calories is the worst thing that you can do to your
body, since that will only slow down your body's fat burning engine and
ruin all chances of losing weight (low calorie diets may allow a few
pounds of weight loss for the first few days, but then after that all
weight loss comes to a halt --- known as a dieting plateau). You can
never get slim by starving yourself.
Low Carb Plans DON'T WORK.
You'll probably find it extremely difficult to get slim using a Low
Carb Dieting Plan. Low carb diets have recently become popular over
the last couple years, but the problem with low carb menus is that they
are too strict and TOO HARD TO FOLLOW for average people. Low carb
menus tend to rob your body of too much energy (carbohydrates) and make
it nearly impossible to remain on the program for very long. This is
why so many dieters find it difficult to follow a strict low
carbohydrate menu.
What about Weight Watchers and Jenny Craig Dieting Plans?
Weight loss programs such as Weight Watchers (and Jenny Craig) usually
involve slower dieting progress over a longer period of time, since
such programs generally promise only 2-3 pounds of weight loss per
week. Also, programs such as Jenny Craig usually involve buying
special meals and/or dietary supplements during the initial phases of
the program. While some people may like these types of dietary
programs, we prefer a dieting plan which focuses on faster weight loss.

Just because low-fat diets are popular and people are getting heavier
does not mean people who eat low-fat are the ones getting fat. I am on
a low-fat diet and lost 90 pounds on it. It is also lower calorie. It's
CALORIES that count. The problem with fat and diet is that fat has 9
calories per gram whereas protein and carbs have only 4 calories. This
means you get to eat more than twice the amount by weight of protein
and carbs than you do fat. Dieting is all about calories, and not so
much about the mix of fat, carbs and protein. People might chose more
or less of one, or more or less fiber for health reasons, but calories
are calories are calories. If you need 2200 calories to maintain your
weight, you could eat 2,000 calories in FAT a day and lose weight. You
probably wouldn't be very healthy, but you could lose weight. You could
also eat almost entirely carbs for your 2,000 cal and lose weight.
Them's the facts. dkw
