The top 4 diet lies
When you decide to go on a weight loss diet you expect to get help and support to do well. I have been dieting all my adult life and having finally succeeded this year I now know that most of the diet schemes and gurus are telling lies. These are the most common lies they tell you about diets.
weight loss lie 1. You will not be hungry on this diet.
One of the first questions you want to know the answer to is this and you want to know for sure you will not go hungry. Common sense will tell you that because you are eating less you will get hungry? I have followed over 20 diets in the last 30 years and they are all wrong - you will be hungry on any diet. You will not be stuffing your stomach with food all day like you normally do so it means you will be hungry.
weight loss lie 2. You do not need willpower on this diet.
no diet is ever that easy to work through. If you decide to do a weight loss diet you need a lot of willpower and stamina. You are in a personal struggle for your bodies health. It will not be easy.
weight loss lie 3. You can eat what you like and no one will know you are on a diet.
You most definitely cannot eat what you like. That's you have a weight problem now. You will not be eating all your favourite foods while you are on the diet. You will be eating things you are not used to and may not enjoy very much. But by doing this you will lose weight
weight loss lie 4. You will find it easy to keep the weight off when you finish.
You will find it very difficult to keep the weight off and will have to plan your strategy for keeping slim at the end of your diet. It will not just happen.
I hope this dose of reality doesn’t make you too miserable about your diet. I hope you can see that this will help you not hinder you. If I can do it so can you.
