2010-08-26 Why people follow fad diets to slim down - by Katarzyna Radzka - Helium

And ndash; Fad diets are popular because they are short term. They make statements like and lsquo;Follow this diet for four weeks and rsquo;, and lsquo;Lose 7kg in 10 days and rsquo;. They aren and rsquo;t seen as a long term commitment but a short term one. It and rsquo;s easy for people to change their eating habits for ten days or four weeks. Having to change them for life is the problem and so they believe that the fad diets are going to help them

2010-08-14 An Updated Guide for Low-Carb Dieters - Well Blog

Years ago, for a talk I was giving on fad diets, I read Dr. Atkins book Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution which essentially proposes whats known in the medical literature as a protein-sparing modified fast. I read every reference he gave in the back of his book and discovered the mechanisms he argued explained why his diet worked had no support in the literature at all. He argued people on this diet literally urinate out enough calories in the form of ketone bodies to lose weight. This is incorrect. And yet even then, as now, evidence existed to suggest the diet worked. The reasons are likely multifactorial and as of yet unproven, but include things like the monotony of a low-carb diet (people have been shown to eat fewer calories when presented with fewer options) and decreased hunger for some

2010-08-13 Elgins Biggest Loser: Week 10. and 11 - Between the Bylines

But the fact that I have another six or seven weeks to go before the wedding. I feel good. I am not starving myself. I get to eat stuff I like. I should mention, I really havent picked a "diet plan. " I am not a pure Atkins dieter or a Zone or anything else. I am mostly just calling it low carb, no white sugar, no white flour, no bread. I have been doing Greek yogurt for mornings I get up a little late for work and am in a hurry, but mostly breakfast is coffee with sweetener and no sugar creamer and a two-egg omelet with turkey, ham and cheese. Lunch is a chefs salad, and dinner (when it happens) is either chicken breast or fish fillet with steamed veggies. I got these Atkins snack bars. I usually let myself have one of them after dinner. When dinner doesnt happen, it usually means a hard-boiled egg and a piece of string cheese

You are what you eat

Ten years ago, following surgery and loss of lymph nodes, I gained 50 pounds. On the Atkins diet, I lost the 50 pounds and have not gained it back.

I and rsquo;m a physician who has studied nutrition, and the data are crystal clear that plant-based diets carry less risk of heart disease, obesity, diabetes and cancer than meat-based diets.

Moderation is the key in any diet, but the article gives a false impression that eating meat is the healthiest way to go.

The research included 387 patients who were randomly assigned either a low-carb or a low-fat diet, along with behavior treatment. Weight at two years was the primary outcome, but other effects were measured throughout the study period. At regular intervals, participants were evaluated for weight, serum lipid concentrations, blood pressure, urinary ketones, bone mineral density, and body composition. The researchers found no differences in weight, body composition, or bone mineral density between the two groups at any point during the study.

2010-07-26 Best ways to shed extra flab, revealed

A study of four popular weight loss plans showed that dieters lost an average of 11 pounds over two months by following the Atkins plan, while the calorie-counting Weight Watchers method helped people shed more than 10 pounds. Individuals who followed the Slim Fast Plan and a Rosemay Conley diet plan, both lost on average between eight and nine pounds.

The diets all resulted in a significant drop in body weight compared to the non-dieting controls, but there was no significant difference between the diets in the amount of weight lost. Based on their results, the authors suggest "commercial companies work in partnership with health professionals to identify high-risk clients and provide them with dietary advice that is tailored to their nutritional requirements".
