Will proper nutrition help me lose weight? Have you’ve tried diet plan after diet plan and you’re still not seeing results? Screaming out for help, “Please! Help me lose weight!” It’s because diets don’t work (obviously). Sure, they may help you drop a few pounds at the start, but the results are often short lasting. Most diets tell you to restrict your caloric intake to the point where your literally starving.
Not getting right amount calories slows your metabolism down, makes you lose lean muscle tissue, deprives you of the fuel you need to perform your daily task, and causes your body to hold on to stored fat for your daily energy. Along with that, diets are miserable, depressing, frustrating and not sustainable over the long periods of time. Come on now, how long do you think you can live off of grapefruits and cabbage?
Take it from a gal who has experienced almost every diet on the market. Proper nutrition will give you better weight loss and healthier results than simply going on a diet. Here are three good reasons why.
Healthier Foods Are Naturally Low in Calories
Unlike processed crap, healthier foods like vegetables, fruits, legumes, beans naturally raised meats, organic poultry, raw nuts, seeds and organic eggs are naturally low in calories. When you eat reasonable portions of these foods, you automatically reduce your caloric consumption and loseweight without feeling hungry, deprived or cranky.
There is so much junk in processed foods. When you consume them, your body doesn’t have an idea what to do with the useless calories; so they just get stored as unwanted fat. When you eat nutritious foods other then that processed junk, your body actually benefits from the calories so they are less likely to get stored in your blubber.
Proper Nutrition Helps Fuel You
All nutritious (and I mean really nutritious) meal plans will permit plenty of fresh vegetables, fruits and beans in a working diet. These foods provide the healthy carbohydrates you need to fuel yourself and keep your metabolism performing like a well oiled machine.
If you stumble across a diet plan that tells you not to eat healthy carbohydrates, dismiss it as fast as you can. Your body really has to have the healthy carbohydrates (healthy being the key term) to survive.
Can Eating Healthy to Burn Fat?
Here’s some great information. Healthy diet plans that include protein can help you build lean muscle tissue, which will push your metabolism into high gear. This is definitely a positive if you want to send that unwanted fat packing.
When you consume protein rich foods, your body produces a hormone that helps you burn fat. Protein also assist in making meals more satisfiable so you eat less ( come on bring on the protein). Nutritious protein sources include naturally raised lean meats, organic poultry, eggs, raw nuts and whole organic beans.
Why send yourself through the drama of dieting just to be discouraged with the end results? Healthy eating is a much better option for shedding unwanted pounds. Make sure your remember though, nutritious-eating is just one part of the weight loss equation. If you want to keep experiencing those great results coming, get lots of exercise and drink plenty of water.
