Cutting your calories down might be a great thing if you are drastically overeating and stuffing your face. However, if you are eating proportionally, then cutting calories might have an aversive effect. If you are cutting calories and starving your body, then that will lower your metabolism, or in other words, slow it down, which may result in you not losing any weight at all, even if you are "cutting calories."
Natural Principles Govern Our Weight
Sir Isaac Newton once said, "What goes up must come down." There are natural principles that govern our lives. If you throw a ball up in the air, it is going to come back down. You can sit on your couch and imagine and visualize that the ball will stay afloat in the air, but natural principles teach us that it will come down. The same goes when it comes to our weight.
Weight Loss Myths
There are many common weight loss myths that people live by when it comes to their health. It is difficult at times to separate the weight loss myths and facts from what is true. Many sound true while others are just laughable. For example, I once read somewhere that if you drink water at night, you are going to gain weight, or if you scratch your head too often, you are going to lose your hair.
Quick Weight Loss
If your goal is to lose some weight quickly, then pick one and follow it. I guarantee you will lose some weight. Studies generally find that any of the commercial weight loss diets will get approximately the same amount of weight off after 6 months to a year. For example, a recent study found that the Atkins' Diet, Slim-Fast plan, Weight Watchers Pure Points program, and Rosemary Conley's Eat Yourself Slim diet were all equally effective.
Diet vs. Lifestyle Change
A diet is a short-term strategy to lose weight. Long-term weight loss is the result of an alteration in lifestyle. We are concerned with lifelong weight management, not quick fix weight loss here. I don't like the term diet as it represents a short-term attempt to lose weight vs. a change in lifestyle. Want to lose a bunch of weight quickly? Heck, I will give you the information on how to do that here and now for no charge.
Health Benefits of Weight Loss Surgery
While patients will certainly look and feel better after weight-loss surgery, there are also numerous health benefits associated with successful weight loss. In most cases, health conditions that develop as a result of excessive body weight or are worsened by obesity can be improved upon or, in some cases, remedied by weight-loss surgery.
Phase II: Exercise
We left off with my last article of "Discover How a Quick Weight Loss Can Be a Healthy Weight Loss - Phase I."
