What are the best diets to lose weight?
The strategy for successful weight loss is always the same: The amount of energy supplied must be less than the amount of energy consumed. Only then does the body draw on its reserves and cause the fat pads to melt. Over a short period of time, a radical diet can perhaps bring great success – but it is much more important to find a diet that you can stick to in the long term and that does not restrict your own lifestyle.
Nevertheless, here are the most important dietary trends that can help you lose weight. Calories count, points count, mixed diets: With these diets, no food is generally forbidden as long as you stay within your daily calorie or point budget. This diet is very suitable as it can adapt to any lifestyle, but it requires a lot of discipline and accuracy and allows only minor estimation errors.
Low Carb Diets: Low Carb diets rely on a low intake of carbohydrates but a high content of proteins and healthy fats. The feeling of hunger is reduced due to the slow burning of energy, but many people suffer from symptoms of carbohydrate deficiency. Attacks of ravenous hunger and physical weakness can be the result.
Even in a social context, diets that allow carbohydrates only to a very limited extent can hardly be implemented. FDH: Eat half. Meals and thus the calories consumed are reduced by half.See below for more details.
Weekly programs: Especially in the online area, few or no personalized weekly programs are sold for a lot of money. The makers promise an enormous weight loss, which results from a strict nutrition plan, usually combined with a sports program. As long as the guidelines are followed, great success can be achieved.
However, many people fail to keep their weight after the program. The reason for this is that the stubborn adherence to the guidelines means that little attention is paid to the topic of nutrition and there is practically no learning effect. For many people such a program can be a great incentive to deal with a healthy lifestyle.
However, they do not give a lifelong guarantee for a slim body.
