Americans Are Fat, Frustrated, Fed Up And Finished With Fad Diets
Hoboken, NJ (ContentDesk) January 19, 2006 -- Atkins is gone... Bankrupt. Popular fat burner pills have been yanked off the market by the FDA. The FTC has pulled down the gates and padlocked the doors of one company after another for making false claims about their diet products. Weve cycled through an entire decade of low fat diets followed by another decade of low carb diets.Its now 2006 and millions of men and women desperate to lose weight have suffered through it all and tried it all.
Sadly, for 95% of them, everything has failed and obesity rates have exploded to an all time high. Americans are the fattest people on earth and they are frustrated and fed up. So what now? Will a new diet or weight loss trend step into the spotlight in 2006? Respected fat loss expert Tom Venuto, author of the Internets best selling e-book, Burn The fat, Feed The Muscle, says he has some answers, and a prediction... Fad diets and weight loss gimmicks will never go away completely. As long as human nature stays the same, the demand for quick fix gimmicks will continue and dishonest companies will always be there to provide the supply. I have no doubt someone will announce the next big thing in 2006 and it will turn out to be another passing fad like the rest of them. The good news, says Venuto, is that he believes that a fundamental change has taken place over the past few years because so many fads have come and gone.
Big names in the diet industry have gone bust or been forced off the market. The CDC has officially called obesity an epidemic, and diets have utterly failed us. As a result, people are fed up with fads and finally ready to face up to the truth.What is the truth? Most people want to hear, take a pill , go to bed, wake up skinny. The truth, says Venuto, is closer to: learn nutrition, burn the fat with exercise instead of starving the fat with diets, work hard, be patient, and lose weight slowly. So far, with a little help from technology, Venutos Internet-based fat burning program (which promotes no pills or supplements), has helped tens of thousands of people in 126 countries who were finally ready for this hard work ethic, common sense approach to achieving a healthy weight. He predicts there will be significant improvement in the obesity crisis before the end of the decade and vows to have something to do with it! Learn more at: http://www.burnthefat.com.

Low Carb Diets
The main purpose behind a low-carb diet is to moderate the food intake in order to help you reduce your weight and not to completely make you stop eating. In fact, low-carb diets should be comprised of healthy food items such as green vegetables, fresh fruits and protein-rich items.
Though low-carb diets are very popular, they have their own limitations. A low-carb diet can make you feel as if you have lost all your energy and you would not be able to work out as vigorously as before. This can affect you detrimentally.
Avoid artificial low-carb food items such as low-carb cakes, biscuits or other so-called low-carb items. In fact, these foods only contain more artificial sweeteners and sugar so that it adds to your weight! These are purely marketing gimmicks to make you buy such products.
The other limitations of a low-carb diet are that you do not always get the right amount of nutrients for your body. A low-carb diet can also make you lose a lot of...

Top 10 Tips for Choosing a Successful Diet Plan
Copyright (c) 2006 Debbie Fontana
Going on a new diet usually ranks about as high as going to the dentist.
You know you need to do it. But you procrastinate because your past experiences have been so unpleasant. Even torturous.
But there's one big difference between going to a dentist and going on a diet. The results from the dentist usually last.
So why don't the results of a diet usually last?
Because you have to eat several times every day. So if the only way to keep the weight off is a diet that seems as torturous as a trip to the dentist, is it any surprise most of us fail repeatedly?
I believe you'll have a greater chance for long-term success if you enjoy your weight loss program.
So here are my top 10 tips for choosing a successful diet plan:

You Have to Be Able to Live With Your Diet And Have a Life With It.
This is absolutely the most important tip...

Square one. Stop thinking about diet, diets, dieting, on a diet, fad diet, latest diet, celebrity diet, diet pills, diet plans, diet programs?ad nauseum?literally!
A diet is simply what you eat! Your diet can consist of chocolate donuts or alfalfa sprouts, but most "Diets", with a capital "D" will not set you free. Instead, they lock you in a cage. Eat anything other than what they prescribe, and you are a failure?at least, so reads their literature.
Of course, what we eat and when we eat it can play a big part in weight loss or gain. Even where we eat can be important.
Ever eat too much at Grandma's on Thanksgiving? I have. How about that cocktail party when you went wandering over to the snack trays?and drank one more drink because someone offered it to you? Okay, for me it would be sitting at the bar ordering one more beer (light, of course) because the game's not over yet. Oh yeah, pass the chips.
