Fast Diet

A Fast Diet May Not Be The Answer

When it comes to weight loss, a lot of people are looking for a “quick fix” which is partly why the notion of a “fast diet” (meaning either a liquid diet or an extreme diet) can hold such a powerful allure for so many people. After all, food addiction is different from so many other forms of addiction.

Think about it. If a person is an alcoholic, he or she can work very hard to quit drinking alcohol. However, people who suffer from a food addiction cannot simply quit eating food. They can fast on a temporary basis (under a doctor’s care). But they cannot stop eating food forever. It is not healthy and it is physiologically impossible to continue living on no food whatsoever. With food addiction, the only solution is moderation, that is learning how to eat healthy food and learning how to eat in moderation. Add more fruits and vegetables to your diet. Fiber is also important, especially in the form of whole grains.

But do not stop eating!! That is never the answer. Some people might take a fast diet too far, which is why this blog is devoted to the idea of eating healthy food in  moderation rather than seeking out a fast diet or a fad diet. It’s not about dieting at all, as a matter of fact. It’s about developing a healthy lifestyle that includes healthy eating and exercise. Extremes are never the way to go because they can be extremely destructive and harmful to one’s physical, emotional and spiritual health.

Walking for fitness is a great form of exercise. It involves walking “briskly” perhaps with hand weights or ankle weights to add some resistance. A lot of people who are not big fans of other forms of exercise enjoy walking and find that they are able (and willling) to incorporate a walk into their days. Leslie Sansone is a fitness guru who specializes in walking for fitness. She creates walking DVDs that teach people how to walk indoors to stay fit when it is cold outside. That way you can continue walking even during the bitter winter months.
