Im doing a project on anorexia and I need to find out if going on diets where you starve yourself will lead you to develop anorexia. Thanks in advance and if you know anything else about anorexia please share.

To be more specific, in some diets in certain brand food they include sugar in the ingredients. Does anyone know how this affects hamsters?

I’ve done my google searching, and to my surprise I didn’t find much information. The specific brand is Hutch Klub Food – Hamster & Gerbil- 2 lb. They didn’t specify how much sugar is in the mix.

Diets don’t work. I have tried almost every diet. Even laxatives. I stay on a diet for a while and lose weight but then it gets old and I start with the old habits again. At times I eat out of emotions. Any suggestions?

I am not fat. I am a skinny teenager who doesn’t want to become a fat adult. It has happened to a lot of people in my family and I don’t want to be like them. I don’t want to go on a hardcore diet I just think that maybe I am eating to much junk food because I am eating a lot. I still want to be able to get the sweets and other good foods I like so do you know any diets that might work for me.

The Atkins diet is definitely unhealthy, but are there any other fad diets out there that work? I need to lose some weight, and I’ve tried a few of the diets out there, but most of them have made me into an even bigger fat stinking hog. Are there any that work?

No matter how you slice it – the one thing that all diets have that work – everything from Atkins to South Beach — is calorie reduction. All these “diets” are just tricks to get you to eat less. Sure, the Atkins has a metabolic effect by lowering carb intake, but everyone I know who has tried Atkins has ALSO reduced their calories (even if they didn’t do it consciously). They find themselves ordering the steak dinner at a restaurant and discarding the baked potato. Well, that jumbo backed potato has several hundred calories. If you eat your steak, green vegetable, and a soup, but skipped the potato – what have you done? Reduced calories!

With all these juice diets and soup diets — weight watchers — and all the rest — add them up! People doing these things are eating less!

People! Eat less and eat right! That’s the way to do it. Don’t do Atkins or juice diets. Don’t starve yourself. Take in 500 calories a day less than you burn, and you WILL lose weight.

Need to lose weight! After I hit age 30, I can’t seem to lose weight. I have changed the way I eat, have gone walking and running and I don’t seem to being losing anything. Need helpful advice. I don’t want to do any crash diets or pills. Please help!

Deciding on a healthy lifestyle when losing weight is often the way to make lasting changes to both the body and your health. A person who is trying to lose weight without making the necessary lifestyle changes usually will find that the weight that they lose is not a lasting change. Many diets work for a short time then result in additional weight being gained when the diet is stopped.

A healthy lifestyle change includes both diet and exercise. An individual who takes a complete approach to losing weight will find that they feel healthier and look better. The body will become more toned and sculpted as they continue their program with minimal effort.

Creating a plan that includes short term and long terms goals is one of the first steps to effectively losing weight. By planning small achievable steps, a person will not be overwhelmed when they are trying to achieve a significant weight loss goal.

There are many ways that a fat loss solution can be incorporated into a healthy lifestyle. When a person includes the vitamins and nutrients that are needed to maintain health they often will lose weight. This, coupled with the use of sport fitness equipment can speed muscle tone and weight loss significantly. Many pregnant women find that by using a pregnancy wrap, they are able to retain their muscle tone and do not have to change their healthy eating habits during pregnancy.

By starting slowly a person often will achieve major successes. Eating smaller portions of food at meal times is one way to cut calories without trying. Another way to introduce healthier foods into the diet is to substitute sugary snacks with healthy alternatives. A person will also find that if they eat five small meals a day, they do not get hungry during the day.

Many fast foods and snacks are very unhealthy. The chemicals and preservatives in the foods are addictive, and often cause withdrawal symptoms such as headaches to appear when they are abruptly removed from the diet. When a person begins slowly substituting bad foods with healthy foods, the body has a change to adjust slowly and become more naturally balanced.

Exercise that is started slowly using regular daily activities can become more expanded as a person gets use to a regimen. By using the regular exercises that are done on a daily basis and expanding on them, a person will find that they are able to build up to a regular exercise program very easily. When an exercise program is started slowly it is easy to develop a habit for exercising.

Many people begin an exercise program with simple walking exercises. Walking is very good for both muscle tone and cardio. An individual can extend the distance they walk by changing a route that they take on a daily basis. When a person is walking daily to the post office, by changing their route they can extend their walking distance in gradual increments.

When a person gets use to exercising, they find it much easier to start a more formal exercise regimen. This exercise will provide the muscle toning and sculpting that a strict diet cannot achieve. Through a healthy lifestyle change a person will often begin to look different before their weight reflects any change. In many cases, as the muscles become strengthened, there will be weight gain even though the inches are being removed from the waistline. In most holistic programs a person relies on how they look and feel rather than what they weigh.

What diets have you tried that actually work and are quick? I am just trying to find a good diet
