Re: Best /Worst Diets
Mon, August 23, 2004 - 10:18 PMwhat happened to the word diet meaning simply what you ate!!!....like i have a diet high in processed foods!!....not some strict eating regime that always leads to feelings of inadequacy and failure when you slip up or it stops working!!
diet should be about eating a balanced selection of good foods....fruit, veg, meat, diary!!....how can your body function properly if you cut out carbohydrates or fat, overload your body on protiens (poor liver and kindeys!!)
i just wish people would learn how to eat better, instead of jumping on every bloody diet bandwagon rolling through town....hoping to shed a zillion kilos without making any effort!!....then crying foul when they pack on the weight again.
oh, and bloody well exercise!! -

Fri, August 27, 2004 - 8:54 AMThe best diet is one that is customized to fit what you like as an individual.Everything doesn't work for everybody.This also makes it much easier for it to decome a lifetime committment.
Exercise can be fun.You have sports which is a fun way to get active.Ifyou have young children you can play with them in the park.It's the little things that count.I also heard that those walking meters that McDonalds had are pretty good to have.
Now whenI start taking my own advice I'll be good!

Re: Best /Worst Diets
Mon, July 11, 2005 - 10:06 AMThats true, you have to change your lifestyle and look at it as a permanent change. Three years ago I lost 85 pounds. When I started it was because I wanted to change my life. The first two weeks,I thought I would die of starvation, I was hungry 24/7. I went to sleep thinking about food, I dreamed about food, I even woke up with the first thing on my mind was breakfast.
After the first 2 weeks when my stomach had time to shrink down to a normal size the diet wasn't hard at all and I really wasn't hungry.
Over the last three years my mother passed away, I quit smoking, my father had by-pass surgery, my daughter married someone I can't stand, and my youngest son got divorced.
Needless to say I gained It all back. I probably would have anyway because I just love food but I've had some pretty good reasons for stress since I lost it.
I now have to start all over and I don't look forward to those first 2 weeks. If I could just get past them I'd be o.k.
