    Default Weight Loss That Is Safe

    Each year millions of people go on diets to lose weight. About 75 percent will experience some degree of weight loss, but only 5 percent or less will keep the fat off permanently.

    Those who regain their weight will regain the pounds they lost, plus more! The cycle of losing and regaining weight and losing and regaining makes them fatter and fatter. This yo-yo effect is detrimental to their health. It happens to people who do not adopt appropriate lifestyle habits that support permanent fat loss. Quick weight loss by dieting is not healthy or permanent.

    What is the safe approach to weight loss? When a high fiber, low-fat, and balanced diet is supported by appropriate habits of exercise, then permanent fat loss can occur and a healthy weight can be maintained for a lifetime. More calories, or energy, must be expended than eaten to have a reduction of body fat. Aerobic exercise is what makes the body's metabolism (the calorie burning system) operate efficiently.

    Very low calorie diets, those that are less than 1200 calories for women and less than 1700 calories for men, are not healthy and do not promote permanent fat loss. In addition, any weight loss diet that does not include aerobic exercise will yield a loss of muscle, water, and fat. After the diet, the water immediately returns. The original fat lost returns, along with more fat. The muscle is lost forever unless it is rebuilt by exercise.

    When muscle is lost, the results are the same for your body as they would be for your car. Throw out part of the engine of your car and see if it will function properly. Muscle is the engine of the body and burns fat for fuel. Your weight loss goal should be to have fat loss only. This will not happen if the body is not serviced properly through healthy eating and regular physical activity.

    Healthy eating includes following the recommendations made by the USDA Food Guide Pyramid. Avoid excess alcohol, sugar, sweets, and fats.

    Each day eat:

    * 6 to 11 servings of whole grain foods

    * 2 to 4 servings of fruit

    * 3 to 5 servings of vegetables

    * 2 to 3 servings of meat and

    * 2 to 3 servings of milk products

    Physical activity is critical! Be active every day. Participate in recreational activities. Go walking, biking, hiking, swimming, dancing, or rollerblading. Carry your own groceries. Do activities that will keep you moving and are safe for you. Even small increases in activity over time can make a big difference in the number of calories your body will burn.

    Remember, crash dieting is not healthy. It can lead to nutrient deficiencies, loss of muscle mass, reduced immune function, and other problems. It is more sensible and safer to make health changes gradually over time. Make the changes a way of life and your reward will be a healthy and fit body.

    Hi ftangek,
    very effective tips and diet plan but I must add everyone to follow it after your doctor's advice.
    Especially to those who are suffering from serious illness.

    Eat less fatty/deep fried foods, walk instead of drive, jog instead of rush, relax instead of being stressed.

    Losing the weight will benefit your health, and physical appearance. The weight loss itself will help you to feel good about yourself and increase your self-esteem on a regular basis. This positive increase does take time to get used to but it is the best feeling in the world.

    Yes, a lot of weight-loss routines/diets do work at least in the short-term. I've looked at a number of them and have decided what I think is best for me. I'm about to embark on a low-carbohydrate diet. I know that the Atkins craze is long over but I have a couple reasons to go this route. First of all the low-carb diet is known to work for many people if they actually stick to it, and second I'm a type-2 diabetic. It's well known that carbs in almost every form are bad for us diabetics (and arguably everyone else). I'm on medication for it but I'm not to the point of requiring insulin injections like many of my extended family. I hope to NEVER get to that point. So I won't be worrying about my fat intake. I've also read several references to low-fat diets causing a decrease in testosterone. I need every bit of testosterone I can muster!

    Kettlebells! Easy, 20 minute workout 3x per week. Portion control. My biggest issue is portion control. I like to eat. Ktdm is right though, the atkins diet works, if you can maintain it. You can eat all day, not fill full and still lose weight. Good luck folks!

    If you have more weight then you must try to reduce weight because it can increase heart disease and increase blood pressure. You have to do exercise like jogging and yoga safely and have to take healthy food that provide you energy like fruits and green vegetables.

    [QUOTE=Youyouxcv;1351949]By following low carbohydrate diets, the body will start burning what is stored in it of fat in order to get the energy it needs, in addition to that, those who start getting carbohydrates in the form of whole grains while reducing the percentage of what they get Of calories, it will benefit from the high dietary fiber and the body will begin to digest it more slowly, which will make it feel less hungry and more sense of .
