Weight loss diets are everywhere to be seen, with new dieting schemes coming to fore of the market on a daily basis.

A good weight loss diet allows for a variety of different foods and food groups, especially lower fat natural foods cooked with a low fat cooking method. Such diets also promote regular exercise, good sleep and life long dieting results. Good diets usually promote working with a dietician, medical doctor, consultant, coach or any support from a friend that can motivate you during the weight loss process. Motivation plays a very big part in weight loss success. Remember that losing weight takes time and shouldn't be rushed. Weight loss diets that promote weight loss of 1kg per week are acceptable as these also ensure that the weight will be kept off after losing it.

So how do I spot a fad diet?

A fad diet is any diet that promotes rapid once off weight loss. Such diets are dangerous and can harm the body over the long term. The counter reaction of the human body when going on fad diets are picking up even more weight than you lost in the first place. Fad diets also promote "no exercise required". Unfortunately most people do not enjoy exercise but know that exercise is crucial for a long healthy life. It is important to realise that healthy eating, when combined with regular exercise, is the best dieting formula for prolonged weight loss results. Try to at least spend 15 - 30 minutes per day exercising 3 to 5 times per week. Fad diets are short term focussed and cannot be done over the long term as they can cause permanent damage to the human body. Fad diets usually promise extraordinary results which never seem to materialise. To be honest, rapid weight loss is usually not fat you lose, but water and muscle that carries more mass than fat.
