Loss Program Facts
Weight Loss Program : Low Fat Diet
A low fat
weight loss program recommends low fat or no fat foods.
The underlying principle behind this diet is that
reducing fat intake coupled with regular exercise
results in lasting weight loss.
Pros
& Cons For This Weight Loss Program
This
weight loss program can be very effective if properly
produced or administered by a good weight loss expert
and results in steady and long term weight loss.
Unfortunately most low fat programs in the market reduce
fat consumption to such a level that it becomes harmful
for health. Some varieties recommend a very high
consumption of carbs which is not good. Also, often with
this kind of program, fat loss is very slow because of
the un-optimized diet menus.
I stress
again that low fat diet is generally the best way to
lose weight. The drawbacks outlined are of the incorrect
manners in which this diet is presented rather than of
the diet itself.
Weight Loss Program : High Protein Diet
This kind
of weight loss program requires you to consume high
protein, low carb foods. This program claims that
carbohydrates make us fat and reducing its consumption
leads to fat loss.
Pros
& Cons For This Weight Loss Program
This
weight loss diet usually leads to quite a rapid weight
loss initially but isn't very effective in the long run.
Also, this kind of diet leads to a steadying of blood
sugar levels which is healthy.
On the
other hand, this weight loss program generally
encourages over-consumption of saturated fats which
increases the risk of heart disease. Also the rapid
burning of fatty acids due to the absence of sufficient
carbs makes kidneys work overtime and may lead to
serious health problems. This
kind of weight loss program should better be avoided as
it poses serious health threats.
Weight Loss Program : Fixed Menu
This kind
of weight loss program provides you with a fixed menu
diet that enlists the foods that you can eat. Some
varieties make you keep track of your calorie needs,
others stress that the same calorie count is good for
most of the dieters.
Pros
& Cons For This Weight Loss Program
This
weight loss program can be easy to follow because the
foods are already selected for you and in most cases
there is no need to keep the calorie count.
The
drawbacks are that this program can deliver results
initially but almost always fails in the long run because
the food choice is so limited that the program is very
hard to follow in the long run. Also, some of these
plans can prove harmful for health due to the lack of
balance diet.
Weight Loss Program : Pre-packaged Meal
This kind
of weight loss program requires you to buy pre-packaged
meals. Generally, the stress is on taking appropriate
portion sizes. This weight loss program is very popular
with weight loss aspirants wanting to lose a few (10-15)
pounds quickly.
Pros
& Cons For This Weight Loss Program
This
weight loss program is easy to follow but many of them
produce a fad diet effect. With a fad diet, the initial
weight loss is due to the loss of water from body and
the dieter is almost never able to lose more than 10 or
15 pounds. Also, these meals are generally quite costly.
Weight Loss Program : Formula Diet
This kind
of weight loss program replaces one or more meals with a
liquid formula. Most of these diets are balanced diets
containing a mix of protein, carbohydrate, and a small
amount of fat.
Pros
& Cons For This Weight Loss Program
This
weight loss program can be quite effective in the short
term but never produces a long term effect. People
regain the weight as soon as they stop using the
formula.
What Weight Loss Program To Go For?
The best
weight loss program is the one that you can call a healthy long
term weight loss
program. Unfortunately the above mentioned popular
weight loss programs usually don't fall under this
category.
There are
a few things that you need to look for in a weight loss
program in order to ensure that you will lose weight
permanently and in a healthy manner.
First of
all, the diet should be safe. It should include all of
the Recommended Daily Allowances (RDAs) for vitamins,
minerals, and protein. The weight loss diet should be
low in calories (energy) only, not in essential
foodstuffs. Also, the weight loss program diet must not
be restrictive or you won't be able to stick with it.
Secondly,
a good weight loss program should include plans for weight maintenance
after the weight loss phase is over. It is of little
benefit to lose a large amount of weight only to regain
it. Weight maintenance is the most difficult part of
controlling weight and is not consistently implemented
in weight loss programs.
Lastly,
the weight loss program should provide behavior modification help,
including education in healthy eating habits and
long-term plans to deal with weight problems.
