To Diet or Not to Diet and the Right Answer

"One-size-fits-all" solutions are not popular in business and every day life. Why should it be different when it comes to diets? A personalized, healthy eating plan, which fits our body characteristiscs and type of metabolism is the wise solution to weight management.

(PRWEB) April 27, 2005 -- Its that time of the year again -- the sun is shining, our mood is rising and we want to throw away the layers of winter clothes and with them the extra kilos that have somehow managed to sneak in again...

Suddenly we are all ears for the latest diet out there. This one WILL work for us. This time we are more determined, more worked up. So we start big, armed with books, tips, gym gear, calorie counting and panting our way to slimness. And we get tired and mentally exhausted -not so much from exercising or calorie counting but from having to think about food all the time.

Diets can become very obsessive, mentally and physically exhausting. But what is more -- they create havoc with our metabolism. The more we diet the less efficient our metabolism is so unless we plan to keep this diet for the rest of our life, then we are definitely going to regain our pre-diet weight and even some more...

The other thing about diets is that they expect us all to be the same and react the same way to the same diet. But the truth is that we all have different bodies and different physiological needs. We all know at least one lucky girl that eats for two and is half our size. Fast metabolism is the verdict. Fast metabolism is sure to make its way into the modern version of the genie and the 3 wishes story...

Well, we dont need a genie to speed up our metabolism. We simply need to know more about ourselves and to make sure we give our body what it needs -- very simple indeed.

How does it work? Different people have different types of metabolism governed by a dominant gland -- adrenal, pituitary or thyroid. In order for our metabolism to function properly we need to eat the right mix of foods with a dominant food type matching our dominant gland. The adrenal type people need more protein, the thyroid -- more carbohydrates and the pituitary thrive on a mix of protein and carbohydrates. Easy! The effects of getting our food right is not instant but is long term. By learning to eat right we give our metabolism the tools to effectively and naturally regulate itself.

What about chocolate, chips, coke, those oh-so-tasty friends/foes? Well, Id be lying if I said that they are absolutely fine. You will have to restrict the amounts you eat and no, dont panic, its not the all or nothing approach. Because this is where most diets fail. No one can be expected to stop eating the foods that they love and are very much dependant on, unless they are given a suitable substitute -- like for example Id settle for a free vacation in the Caribbean where I can relax and think only about avoiding chocolate, eating tropical fruits and drinking freshly squeezed juices... Yes, but how many of us can do that? We all have our daily fights to fight and we dont need yet another one -- letting go of our favourite delights.

So how do you do it? By cheating of course! By taking it slowly and substituting gradually. Ive done it, my friends have done it and weve helped other people to do it.
