A Cheat Your Way Thin Plan for Weight Loss
A Cheat Your Way Thin Plan for Weight Loss
It seems that everyone is on a diet at one time or another, but that doesn't mean everyone is successful. We start what we believe is a good diet plan, filled with healthy foods, low in fat and low in calories and the weight does come off - at first. But then we struggle to maintain such a strict eating plan over time which eventually leads to a binge, and then, out of frustration we abandon the diet altogether.
If this scenario describes you then you probably feel as though you failed. You feel that you lack the willpower to lose weight and keep it off. But what if it wasn't you that failed? What if the diet failed you? Many of us are conditioned to think that to lose weight we have to give up all of our favorite foods and if we cheat on our diet then we did something that we should be ashamed of. No wonder many of us abandon our diets.
Here are three reasons why cheating on your diet may actually help you lose weight.
Reason 1: A diet that advocates cheating is easier to stick to.
No doubt about it. Diets that cut out your favorite foods will make you feel deprived. However, a diet that allows you to balance the healthy foods that you are eating with some of your favorite foods will be easier to stick with in the long run.
Reason 2: Cheating on your diet means you are less likely to binge.
Forget those nights when you binge on everything in the house, trying to satisfy a craving. Diet plans that recommend cheating by allowing your favorite foods in moderation can help you stay on your diet.
Reason 3: Cheating on your diet can actually help you lose weight.
We have all heard or may have even experienced the dreaded weight loss plateau. You lose a few pounds but after a while the weight will not budge. Strict dieting can actually put your body into starvation mode, which in turn slows down your metabolism in an attempt to hold onto those pounds that you are so desperate to lose. That's why a less strict diet that advocates cheating can actually boost your metabolism.
What if cheating on your diet was okay? Joel Marion, certified sports nutritionist and creator of the Cheat Your Way Thin Plan says that you can (and should) do just that!
A diet doesn't have to be about deprivation. A diet is about making healthy lifestyle changes that you can live with for the rest of your life. And eating a healthy diet filled with wholesome foods means that you can have your cake and eat it too - literally. Joel understand this, which is why cheating on your diet is not only allowed, it is required!
