Diets Do Work
Diets do work if you want to get rid of weight fast and gain it all back
Diets do work if you want to feel miserable all day
Diets do work on slowing down your metabolism
Women want results quickly and will go to extreme measures to lose weight.
If you have ever been on a strict diet, you know what I mean. Let me tell you there is a better way to burn the fat off, while keeping your metabolism high. When I talk to most women who are dieting they tell me they are afraid to eat and that the pounds will just come on. Well, if you want a faster metabolism and want to keep it running that way, don't be fooled in thinking you have to eat practically nothing.
So in order to lose more fat and keep your metabolism high, you need to fuel your body and exercise. Many women complain that after they hit 30 all of the sudden they gained extra body fat around the stomach, hips, and thighs. Is it really age or is it something else?
Most women I find aren't doing what they need to do in order to have their metabolisms going.
They exercise less and some cases eat more or eat less. If you have been on a low calorie diet for a long time then your body eventually adapts to it and it becomes harder to lose weight.
Every time you diet you suppress your metabolic rate about 30%. Thus, it becomes difficult to lose weight/fat. Along with dieting you begin to lose muscle. Muscle is the key to your metabolism, so the more lean mass that you have the better.
So what should you do if you have been dieting for a long time on low calories? You want to bring up your calories to get things going. I explain this in my section of how to repair your metabolism here
I see this often in women, but once they adjust their calories with the right ratios of fats, carbs, and protein their bodies become more efficient in burning fat. Not to mention they can get away with eating some treats here and there. Make sure that you are eating mostly fat burning foods. (Lean proteins, essential fats, and carbs)
Some of my favorite fat burning foods are:
Peanut butter (all-natural)
Chicken
Broccoli

This may sound counterintuitive, but science doesn't lie. 95% of women who go on diets gain the weight back then some. The best way is to lose it at a steady pace, and it will stay off..the other way I can pretty much guarantee it will come back on. Any quick fix diet and take the weight off you but how many of them will guarantee after you go back to your old ways of eating it comes right back on.
If you think about it, and do it the right way it's actually faster.
