The Battle Against Weight Loss Programs

Who wants to go on a diet or go through food deprivation just to give in to society's judgemental eye? Who enjoys strenuous activities that would leave you sweating, stinking, and tired?

Losing weight has been the biggest if not the most frustrating challenge ever to hit most overweight individuals. One usually spends a lot of time and money buying equipment that promises you inches off your waist after a gruesome ordeal of a workout, instructional videos that promises the same thing, even weight loss treatments, food supplements, diet pills to suppress appetite, going from one weight loss program to another.

There are some who would sometimes even desperately ends up inducing vomiting or a condition medically known as bulimia which is very damaging to your health or even go through invasive surgery such as liposuction or bariatric surgery.

All these weight loss programs have a common denominator. They guide you into eating right, helps increase your metabolism to burn fat and discourages you from having a sedentary lifestyle.

There is one weight loss program that doesn't leave you hungry. It even allows you to eat two strips of bacon cooked in normal and not the low fat or low salt butter and not even imitation butter - in other words, the real butter with the extra creamy taste, two eggs also cooked in butter, and as much as you can of beef, chicken, pork per meal cooked in any way you prefer provided you don't take any carbohydrates of any sort and take a grapefruit or a glass of grapefruit juice with every meal.

The medical explanation for this is that the very first thing the body burns is carbohydrates followed by fat so without carbohydrates in your system, your body don't have a choice but to burn the fat right away.

Another weight loss program, introduced way back in 1985, lets you go on a diet for just three days a week. Yes, you read it right; you go on a diet for just three days a week and you can revert back to your normal eating spree for the remaining four days of the week. And what's really appealing is that you can even have a serving of vanilla ice cream!

On top of this, it still guarantees losing 10 pounds a week provided you exactly follow the food guide because the scientific explanation for the weight loss is that the mixture of food per meal is responsible for inducing a mysterious metabolic reaction that leads to fat burning.

There are similar weight loss programs being offered by weight loss centres in your area. Though there are individuals who testify to having succeeded in a certain weight loss program, it all boils down to the individual themselves.

The success of any weight loss program is dependent on first, the person should want to lose weight for themselves and not to please or be criticized by others, second, it usually works if you go for a weight loss program to be healthy, third, you have to consult with a doctor first because being overweight sometimes is due to other health conditions and not solely due to food intake and when all these are met and you have the inner discipline and drive to make it work then any weight loss program is bound to work.
