Things people say when dieting

The path to fitness is full of common misconceptions
Here are some common phrases said by people who are dieting:

“If I exercise enough, I can eat what I want.” On average, one hour of walking burns 250 calories but an ice cream sundae can have double that. I guarantee the sundae will be eaten a lot faster that it will take to burn it off on the treadmill
“I don’t drink soda.” Empty calories are still empty calories, whether they come from soda or other beverages such as tea or fruit juices
“I eat organic chips which are healthier.” Unfortunately, organic chips, cookies, etc. are still chips, cookies, etc. are no less fattening.

Diet and wellness during the holiday season

How to maintain weight loss at Holiday dinner
Well, it’s that time of year again. Some people might think that trying to lose weight at this time of the year is impossible. Thankfully, there are some common sense tips to remember:

Eat 3 meals a day and never skip breakfast and snack in between, because if you skip meals and then attend a holiday party, you’ll be much more likely to overdo it on calories
If you attend a party, go for the vegetables and chose lean meats and fish without the rich sauses; avoid anything fried even fried veggies. Fried foods and most sauces are loaded hidden calories.
Drink one glass of water for every one alcoholic drink
Take only half as much food as you think you’ll be able to eat.
You’ve got to live it! ™

Why do I never lose weight when I diet?

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]There’s a science to weight loss and the struggle to diet
Here is the latest thinking behind the science of weight loss:

There’s a genetic component (in other words, there is a “fat gene”)
Some people just have more fat cells
Your metabolism can change making it harder to lose weight once you gain weight
Stress can cause you to crave carb-rich snack foods
Not enough sleep (sleep deprivation triggers a decrease in leptin which helps us feel full and an increase in ghrelin which makes us feel hungry)
Your spouse’s weight matters (if one spouse is obese, the other is 37% likely to become obese, too)
