Do Fad Diets Burn Fat

It is quite possible that some of the fad diets do burn the excessive fat

, but is it a diet you can live with for the rest of your life? Lots of claims are made as to how well they work. They also show pictures of people who have lost weight and burned fat off in a remarkably short time. Do you really believe in their such tall claims? It is very much possible to lose weight by following a fad diet, but I don't think the diet is one I can stick with. They all typically have foods I don't eat on a regular basis. Sometimes they are not at all appetizing. You may use a fad diet to speed up your weight loss, but it is not at all a wise idea to use it on a long term basis. If you don't want to spend your life bouncing from one fad diet to another, you need to do some lifestyle changes and add some exercise to your routine.

The grapefruit is quite popular. Who has not heard of the grapefruit diet? I remember my mother following their advice when I was only a young child. I think it has been quite popular even in the early 30's. You can loose weight quickly with it. They say that grapefruit contains some ingredients, which when eaten in combination with a protein, they help you burn fat.To be honest, I don't know what exactly that ingredient is. I eat grapefruit and so does my husband, but we eat them as a late night snack before bed. Now I know where I'm going wrong. It's possible the weight you loose while on the diet may only be the weight due to water in your body. It will help the scale move temporarily but the pounds will possibly be back when you return to eating like you did before going on the diet. The food choices are taken from low calorie, low carbohydrates and high protein type foods. You diet for 12 days to loose 10 pounds . I would advise anyone wanting to loose weight to also If you wish to lose weight, you are also advised to do some exercises. That will enable you to burn more fat and also keep your weight in control.

The Atkins diet is a very well known plan too. My mom has also tried it out. Like the grapefruit diet, it is a high protein low carbohydrate diet. Many of the foods, which had been a taboo for years are allowed in it. They include sour cream, steak, eggs both the yolk and white parts. The plan looks at the reason many people are overweight is due to carbohydrates, not fat. Change your eating habits and instead of burning off carbohydrates when you are exercising or doing your daily chores, you start burning fat instead. In order to burn fat, this seems to be a very good idea.

This is only two of the diets out there that have been very popular over the past years and still being used by the dieters today. They are very effective in kick starting your fat burning engines. They help you to lose weight. You will notice a change in your body shape and you may even see your belly fat burning off. That is the hardest fat to burn.

The question is, can you live on this type of diet the rest of your life? The grapefruit diet is only 12 days long. Then you must take a couple days off before restarting it. The Atkins diet doesn't have a time limit. It is advisable to consult your doctor, when you go in for dieting, but can you give up your carbohydrates for ever? Aren't carbohydrates good for you? That's where we get our energy, right?

It may be possible to survive on the Atkins diet, but most would be unable to do it. I like my pies, potatoes and sweets a lot. After loosing your weight on the diet, most will revert back to their old eating habits and gain the weight back.

You don't ever want to be fat again, right? In order to do that, you need to watch your portions but not deprive yourself of foods. When serving yourself, only add a few of the foods containing carbohydrates. Pay a special emphasis on eating vegetables, fruits and protein. Be sensible about the portions of even the food items that are considered good to eat. If you do this, you should see a weight loss, maybe not as fast as some diets claim, but you will surely lose. Eat sensibly and you can follow that diet for life, not just a coupled of weeks. If you wish to lose your weight at a faster pace, one of the above diets can help, but remember to eat sensibly after loosing the weight.
