Debunking Diet Fads: How to Lose Weight Without Resorting to Fad Diets

Feeling a little heavier lately? Relax — you’re not the only one. With all the stress, anxiety, and lockdown
measures we have to endure, most of us have steadily gained weight over the past year.

Losing weight requires a lot of commitment and hard work, but it isn’t impossible. It doesn’t require extreme
measures either. It’s possible to lose weight by subscribing to a San Diego meal prep company. There’s no
need for extreme or fad diets to get back to a healthier weight.

What Are Fad Diets?

Fad diets are often popularized by celebrities and influencers. Think of all the diets that have come and gone
over the years — Atkins, Paleo, Whole30, and even the Ketogenic diet. Liquid diets, like skinny teas, juice
cleanses, and meal replacement shakes, count as fad diets, as well.

Fad diets aren’t just those that have gone viral. Here are some characteristics a fad diet may also exhibit:

  • Promises fast and “easy” results
  • Enforces strict weight-loss rules and menus
  • Claims to lose weight without exercise
  • Encourages excluding or restricting whole food groups

The Danger of Fad Diets

Following fad diets can sabotage reaching our weight loss goals. Some fad diets indeed work. However, the
problem is the sustainability of such a weight loss diet.

Fad diets rarely offer long-term results. They may provide rapid weight loss but once you stop following the
diet, you can regain the weight just as quickly.

Moreover, completely disregarding a whole food group or certain foods can deprive our bodies of essential
nutrients. This can lead to the following health issues:

  • Weakness
  • Fatigue
  • Nausea
  • Headaches
  • Dehydration
  • Constipation

5 Healthy and Sustainable Ways to Lose Weight

It’s possible to lose weight without resorting to extreme fad diets. Although it may be slower, we will still see
progress and be able to maintain it longer.

Here are five tips for healthier and more long-term weight loss:

1. Maintain a Balanced Diet

Having a balanced diet means eating plenty of fruits, vegetables, meats, grains, dairy, and other food groups. If
you’re having difficulty planning daily meals, subscribing to healthy meal delivery in San Diego is an easy way
to ensure you get balanced meals.

2. Eat On Time

Our blood sugar levels drop if we don’t eat on time. When this happens, we get dizzy or tired and start craving
sugary foods.

3. Drink Enough Water

We lose around 2.5 to 3 liters of water daily so it’s important to replace that amount. That means we need to
drink anywhere between 8 to 10 cups of water each day.

4. Exercise Regularly

Exercising regularly not only helps lose weight, but it can also help promote better mental health. Doing even
10 minutes of slow-paced exercises daily at home can help.

5. Eat Metabolism-Boosting Food

Eating certain foods like citrus, oatmeal, and other whole grains, or sugar-free dried fruits can help boost your
metabolism. Chili peppers, coffee, and nightly oolong tea may help as well.

Slow and Steady Wins the Race

We can all reach our weight loss goals with proper diet, exercise, and time. Subscribe to Lean & Tasty today
and start receiving healthy meal delivery in San Diego to ensure you get delicious, balanced meals every day.
