A lot of people are trying to lose weight and in need of a few free diet tips. There are a lot of common misconceptions when it comes to dieting and these tips should hopefully clear up some confusion too.
Free Diet Tip #1 - Not All Fat Is Bad For You
We have all heard of trans fat. This is a "bad" fat and should be avoided as it will increase bad cholesterol levels (LDL), decreases the good cholesterol (HDL) and also hardens your arteries. It is also suggested that your diet should not be made up of more than 7-10% saturated fats.
Now there are unsaturated fats that are found in foodstuffs such as nuts, fish oil and olive oil that are beneficial to your health. These fats help reduce inflammation, lower bad cholesterol levels and can help you prevent cardiovascular disease. Unsaturated fats will also slow down the absorption of food into the bloodstream which makes you feel full for longer and so help manage food cravings.
The tip is to never overdo it dietitians suggest you only needs 2 teaspoons of unsaturated fat in a meal to be beneficial.
Free Diet Tip #2 - Snacking Means Fruit Not Chocolate
This seems extremely obvious I know; but you can really lose weight quickly just by being sensible. There is no point exercising and then "treating yourself for being good" having a chocolate bar.
Think about having pears, kiwi fruit, carrot or raisins. Yes I know cookies can be fun and taste nice while carrots and celery are perceived as not fun but so is being overweight too.......it is your choice are you serious or not?
Free Diet Tip #3 - Refined Sugar Is The Enemy!
This leads on from free diet tip two and why cookies and chocolate are really bad.
If you want to add pounds as fast as possible then it is simple; just eat foods high in refined sugar. As far as we are concerned dextrose, fructose, corn syrup and maltodextrin are the devils spawn.
It can be hard to cut out your favorite snacks like say chocolate. The best way to approach your problems is not to go cold turkey. Instead cut down steadily go from a regular size chocolate bar to having half a bar, then to a Halloween size chocolate treat and finally to a 100-calorie bar.
Snack better in baby steps and you will soon notice the difference in not only losing weight but feeling better in yourself too.
And Finally.......
Look losing weight isn't easy but the fact you have accepted your overweight and want to make a change is a big step in the right direction. Losing weight isn't about dieting per se but a change in lifestyle such as eating less bad foods like cookies and chocolate whilst eating more fruit and vegetables.
