Fat Loss - Top 5 Reasons Not to Diet
1.
Dieting can result in weight cycling (the yo-yo up and down phenomena).
Most Diets don't work and dieters rarely lose weight and make it last.
Dieting only causes short-term weight loss, lasting no more than a few months.
This is often followed by huge appetites that recover the lost weight and more.
Clinical studies show that dieters are more likely to suffer obesity than those who don't diet.
With weight cycling, research points to higher death incidences associated with it.
2.
Dieting disrupts your normal bodily processes that can cause health problems and even death.
Crash diets that result in rapid weight loss puts enormous stress on the body.
The body protects itself by adjusting its metabolic rates.
You get lower metabolism, heart and pulse rate, blood pressures and even sexual dysfunction.
There's also a drop in intellectual and emotional capacity that can compromise your social activities.
Dieting risks sudden death caused by electrolyte imbalance and heart arrhythmia.
3.
Dieting can leave you lighthearted, sluggish and mentally deficient.
Diets are basically starvation programs that make you lose out on the essential nutrients like iron, protein, zinc, vitamins and the calories needed to make the mind and body work at their best.
4.
Dieting attracts binge eating, chaotic eating - the main impetus to eating disorders.
Dieting puts havoc to your eating order driven by your body clock.
Dieters ignore body alerts of hunger and satiety, making it difficult for them to distinguish when they are hungry or full, and thus eat without regularity.
Not a few experts have opined that the increasing incidence of eating disorders in America consists in part by people who are dieting and suppressing food intake.
5.
Dieting loses sight of the right priorities in life.
Dieters now focus more on food, putting their lives on hold, until they get thinner.
Waiting to be thin seems to be the preoccupation these days, spending more time on food above everything else that makes for a satisfying life.
Dieting focuses on superficial looks rather than self-esteem and personal fulfillment.
As they say, get a life.
Move on to health living and not anticipating to be thin.
Eat and feel good about it.
