Why The Total Starvation Diet Rarely Ever Gets Results

By Kristen Mauzy


Countless overweight individuals have starved themselves for a short period until they quickly lost the fight. It's correct that you can drop a few pounds simply due to eating less calories. Needless to say that is also one way a great deal have tried to accomplish and failed. This is like quitting smoking cold turkey, and the fact is it calls for a lot when it comes to changing daily habits and lifestyle. Positive as well as healthy lifestyle and eating changes will be much easier to accomplish with a different approach. The basic strategy is to do less over time and little by little make the desired shift.

Except in cases where you have a hyperactive metabolism, then an excess of daily calories leads to obesity. There is a small minority who cannot put on weight in spite of how much they eat. You cannot exclude too many calories since your body needs energy every day. You can get by with a very low daily caloric intake, but the likelihood is very good that you would feel fatigued, sluggish, hungry and miserable. One good spot to begin making changes is with meals that obviously are fatty and not right for you. So by committing to going slower on consumption, then you will not shock your body so hard.

If you cut back on sugary snacks, then begin introducing foods most notably fruits as well as vegetables. Once more, you do not need to make a severe change here, or a total lifestyle makeover. You can immediately see that this is much gentler on your emotional health. A progressively gradual approach will give you time to make internal adjustments which you will find to be easier. After about a week or so, then you can scale back a little more and add more well balanced meals. On top of that, you may consider introducing some kind of physical activity to your weekly routine.

It becomes very useful if you take a look at the quality of calories and fats you eat each day. High carbohydrate foods as well as those with too much sugar need to be determined. Healthy fats are essential for good health and performance, so remember you have to include them on a daily basis. Ready-made foods and fast foods are great examples of the incorrect kinds of fats for you. Then simply make the effort to have less and less of them each day, or week. Your goal is to make a change that is meaningful, and you will feel better about yourself which is good.



You need to make these small changes a part of your new behaviors and habits. This is going to of course take time, but that is the trade-off any time you make smaller changes. This slower approach is appropriate for people who have a chronically difficult experience with eliminating all unhealthy foods at any one time. The main factor here is to keep increasing your efforts as each change becomes a part of you. However, when the results start to happen, then that may have a magical effect on your desire to change. There isn't anything more motivating than results in any endeavor.
