There are so many celeb diets around these days it is hard to get some straight answers. Can you honestly get good weight loss results following on of these? Why do they never seem to work? Today we explain these myths in more depth for you.
Be honest, we all know at least one friend who constantly gets sucked in by the latest routine printed in this month's chat magazine. It's hard not to, what with the instant results they claim and the fact that they have attached a famous person's photograph to conjure up images of how you will look next month if you follow their routine, right?
It's common that folks will become addicted to the search for the 'miracle pill' which will allow them to get instant, zero effort results. That's where these guys make their money at your expense, or rather the fact that you may be a tad naive. There are simple common attributes these routines always feature:
* Quick weight loss for around one week followed by hitting a brick wall and not being able to lose any more weight no matter how much you try.
* Despite losing some weight they often look and feel ill.
* These plans create a yo-yo dieter, where the weight flies back on the second you return to eating normal food again. That's exactly what they want, too, as it means you'll be back in the future.
Today we will show you the reasons why these things happen.
As well as forcing you to ditch your favorite junk foods you'll often be asked to live on very basic, unappealing meals which drive you to the edge of your sanity. Couple this with the huge mistake of forcing you to drop your calories too far each day and it's a recipe for disaster.
When you drop your calories by this much you force your body into a starvation mode, where it stores as much energy as it can. Indeed, even though you may be practically starving yourself you are actually storing more fat from each meal than you used to when you were eating what you liked.
This is why it becomes almost impossible to lose any more weight despite working harder and eating barely enough to survive...
Furthermore, the overall goal is usually a quick fix one or two month target. This adds to the other flaws and creates an effect where people find their body just piles the weight back on and more when they return to eating normally.
The truth is people often fall for these things because of a glitch in their personality. Deep down they know it's too good to be true, but the 'what if' factor gets them in the end and that is exactly what the magazine publisher is going for. They will keep wasting money until they wake up and change their mentality towards health and fitness. You don't need to avoid your favorite junk foods or live on rabbit food, but this myth will never go away until the dieter wakes up and realizes for themselves.
