How to find a diet to lose weight?

Who ever thought of following a diet to lose weight? They look brilliant, appearing on the cover of popular magazines as a "magic solution" to lose five, seven or more pounds in a matter of weeks! However, as tempting as they may seem, they can also be dangerous.

Each diet encourages a certain action: it may be only the consumption of liquid (the liquid diet), or consume food according to a points table (diet points) or a famous experimental menu that probably arose at a university (the Diet USP). Finally, though they look interesting ideas preached, must be careful, because often what is lost with a restrictive diet is not the fat that much is expected, thus being able to burn lean meat, which means do not have good results, since once it leaves the recipe, one that will recover weight again.

There is a wide variety of diets: liquid diet, carbohydrate diet, vegetarian diet and protein diet are just some examples. The person interested in losing weight should avoid mistakes, the mistake of following a diet without being accompanied by a specialist and without physical exercise and a nutritional education. Without the change of their own eating habits, it's just a matter of time before that, once abandoned the diet, the person re-earn their pounds.

A type of diet just discussed, but that can deliver results, are vegetarian diets, which encourages the consumption of a greater amount of plant foods. As we know, plant foods like fruits and vegetables are low calorie, which will help burn the calories already accumulated, and high in fiber, which reduces fat absorption and increases the feeling of fullness, causing the person to eat less . Even that is not to join such a diet, increase the amount of fruit and vegetable intake can help you lose weight, but beware of excesses: Certain foods of animal origin are also very important to our diet and should not be neglected.

Finally, I believe that the best diet is one whose impact on our body is not too high and encourages change our eating habits. It is preferable to a diet that makes you lose only one or two pounds per month, but with lasting results through a new lifestyle than a diet that makes you lose 8 or 10 pounds in a month, but that will be recovered as quickly stop the diet!
