 Fast weight loss diet – is it healthy?

A fast weight loss diet is the goal of everyone striving to lose a few pounds. Getting the weight off quickly is important for morale and can encourage you to keep on going with the diet. There are a number of ways losing weight quickly but they are not all healthy. High-protein, low carbohydrate diets like the famous Atkins diet are quite easy to follow and can produce stunning results quickly. However critics of the Atkins diet are sceptical about its long-term achievements. They say the body needs carbohydrates and by restricting them it can lead to health problems further down the line.

There is so much information out there, both for, and against these kinds of diets that it’s difficult for the average consumer to know which option is the best one to take. It’s certainly true that if you want to drop a dress size in a week then restricting carbohydrates is obviously going to help you achieve that task. With refined sugars, starches, and carbohydrates eliminated from the diet and fibre rich fresh fruit and vegetables and meat replacing it, weight can be lost and hunger cravings can be kept to a minimum.

Fast weight loss diet – An achievable dream

So for a short, quick, fast weight loss diet, low carbs, high-protein can do the trick. But it’s also probably true that this kind of diet isn’t sustainable in the long run. The US Heart Association say the only sensible way to lose weight and keep the weight off is to eat a balanced diet and increase physical activity.

This seems like the kind of common sense we can all agree with, but it’s much more difficult to apply this thinking to our everyday lives. We live so much of our lives on the go with no time to cook meals or to consume food in a proper manner. Breakfasts are usually skipped in favour of huge super-sized coffees on the way to work or school. Lunch is often a sandwich, crisps, and chocolate and people are usually so weary when they get home from work that a pizza, chips or other quick item of food has to do them for the main meal of the day.

Maintaining a fast weight loss diet is extremely difficult. The sacrifices that have to be made each and every day are, some people, too great. Dieters have to change a lifetime’s habit in a matter of days, and are simply not strong enough to deal with the temptations that are all around. A diet has to be planned for like a military operation. Fast weight loss needs to be planned. Yes we can get the weight of quick, but it’s got to stay off and you have to remain healthy. This is the key to long-term success and is one of the central themes of our website
