There is sensible weight loss dieting and then there are mad fad diets. The sensible diets recommend a slow steady approach to losing weight with controlled and restrictive eating. The fad diets do not offer a steady weight loss. They promise large reduction in weight in a matter of weeks.
It seems impossible for these very low calorie diets to work? They claim great things but you must know that they are not based on normal food and ideas. I know this because I have lost 5 stones in a space of just 15 weeks on one of these diets.
There are very definite reasons why this diet worked for me and why it could work for you. This is primarily because of set and fixed rules for you to adhere to.
Fad diets have very strict rules that you have to follow. You know exactly what is expected of you. They give you a meal plan that says “this is what you can eat” It is very limited and usually quite boring but you know that if you stick to the diet rules you will trim down quickly.
Normal weight loss diets work on the basis of reducing your food intake generally and closely watching what you eat. You are so busy counting points and calories that you do not know quite what you are allowed to eat and when.
The rules become a friend you get to rely on because you know and understand them so well. But of course then the question is can you stick to the diet rules you are given. The rules that you do have are in a way much harder to stick to but you also expect to be hungry on this type of diet so you expect this. It creates a sort of virtuous circle of thought processes that give you more resolve.
All diets have set rules for you to follow. I just like the simple and easy to follow rules of mad fad diets.
