2007-02-18 The Problem With Dieting Progressive U

Well, I hate to break it to you, but weight loss cannot be fast. When you lose a large amount of weight in a short amount of time (say 10 pounds in a week or two), youre not losing true weight. This weight it mostly water weight that fluxuates from day to day, depending on how hyrdrated you are. Not only that, but your body is used to carrying around a certain amount of weight. Due to the activities of our ancestors, we are programmed to use extra calories to burn fat, and when all this fat disappears quickly, our bodies recognize it as a fast, and strive to not only gain the weight back, but add additional weight to combat the fast later on. Furthermore, once people have lost the weight that they want, they tend to go back to bad eating habits that cause this weight gain to occur even faster.

2007-02-08 The Feedzone with Monique Ryan: Rapid weight loss and your immune system

Even if you paid attention to consuming carbohydrate during hard workouts, particularly those long training rides, you may not have been consuming enough for adequate recovery because of your accelerated weight loss efforts. By cutting back at least 500 calories daily, it is assumed that some of these calories came from carbohydrate and protein sources, which could have compromised your daily glycogen repletion and recovery from one training session to the next. Several studies have looked at the impact of dietary carbohydrate on hormonal and immune response to exercise. When exercise is completed over several days time on a low carbohydrate diet the magnitude to which stress hormones respond to exercise is much higher than with a diet adequate in carbohydrate. While these experimental diets were very low in carbohydrate, it is

2007-02-08 Eat All You Want and Still Lose Weight This Time It Might Be True, According to Researchers at Dynakor Pharmacal: Financial News - Yahoo. Finance

Dr. Mowrey explains: "In a double-blind, placebo controlled, randomized clinical trial, doctors tested a group of overweight individuals. And among those who took the active, patented Akavar-20/50 compound, every single participant lost a substantial amount of weight . except one. Further, the study suggested that the reason for the substantial weight loss was delayed gastric emptying, a physiological process that one would expect should reduce caloric intake. However, because the participants were specifically told not to change their normal dietary and exercise habits, I thought there had to be more to this compound than mere delayed gastric emptying alone. Therefore, I suggested a second clinical trial, which has yet to be published, to examine whether the Akavar compound could have altered levels of ghrelin, the hunger

To facilitate fast and dramatic weight loss, many fad diets require you to decrease your caloric intake to levels that are inadequate to insure youre getting the nutrients you need. Furthermore, weight that is lost quickly is very likely to come back just as fast when you stop starving your body. A slow, steady approach will maintain your health while producing the results you desire -- and youre more likely to keep the weight off over time. Youll have a bad week here and there, but dont be discouraged. It happens to the best of us. Even if you dont meet your one-pound goal in a given week, stick with the diet and the weight loss will average out over time.

2007-02-13 Pork preserve lean body mass during weight loss

While previous studies have evaluated the impact higher-protein diets have on a weight-loss program, this is the first study to use pork as the only source of meat," said Ceci Snyder, MS, RD, assistant vice president of consumer marketing for the National Pork Board. "We know consumers may be surprised to learn that pork is a lean protein choice that can help you achieve your weight loss goals. In fact, there are six cuts of pork that meet the U. S. Department of Agricultures guidelines for lean, with less than 10 grams of fat, 4. 5 grams of saturated fat and 95 milligrams of cholesterol per 3-ounce serving. "

2007-03-01 Dieters should avoid fad diets that promise rapid weight loss

Other liquid diets require elimination of all foods except for juices or broths. I have seen companies push their own brand of liquid that is to be used as the sole source of nutrition (such as the three-day Hollywood Diet), but I have also heard of homemade concoctions consisting of water, lemon juice and cayenne pepper. These diets dont provide vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, protein or fat. Weight loss is achieved from self-induced starvation. If done for long periods it causes dizziness, fatigue and a decrease in your metabolic rate.
