Fad diets may promise fast weight loss results, but they are often unhealthy and you’re
unlikely to keep the weight off
Fad diets are all the fashion these days. Everyone seems to have the ultimate diet tip to
help you lose weight superfast. While the claims are likely to pique your interest, especially
if you have struggled with your weight in the past, dieticians raise the red flag when it
comes to crash dieting. Crash diets are simply not healthy, and while you may well lose
weight quickly, you’re likely to pile on the pounds as soon as you go back to your old eating
habits.
Negative Aspects Of Fad Dieting
Most fad diets ‘work’because you eat far less kilojoules, and therefore less energy, than
your regular diet. Eating too little though can lower metabolism, the rate at which your
body burns energy. Most of these diets severely restrict eating habits and only allow certain
foods, so your body won’t be getting the nutrients it requires. Deficiencies can leave you
feeling tired and unable to concentrate properly.
Safe And Effective Weight Loss
The Tony Ferguson Weightloss Program is designed to help you lose weight in a healthy
way and keep it off. It’s a proven Program that reduces kilojoule and carbohydrate intake in
a safe manner. This kick starts your body to start using fat as a primary source of fuel and
you begin to burn stored fat. The Program is straightforward –shakes, soups, munch bars
and a recipe book mean that all the hard work is done, so you don’t have to weigh your
food or count kilojoules. By following the Program correctly, you’ll see a reduction in weight
and centimetres as fat is burned.
When Your Weight Plateaus
After initially losing weight steadily, some people experience a plateau or a period where
weight loss seems to stall. This can be demotivating, so it’s important to identify the cause
quickly.
Various medications and medical disorders can have an effect on weight loss. These include
undiagnosed insulin resistance, diabetes, polycystic ovary syndrome, thyroid disease or
metabolic syndrome. It is important to raise any concerns with your medical doctor or chat
to your Tony Ferguson Practitioner at your weekly weigh-in. If you skip meals, do not drink
enough water or do not stick to the Program properly, your weight loss may also plateau.
Kick Start Weight Loss
Your Tony Ferguson Practitioner is trained to help you identify the problem and help you
find a solution to get your weight loss back on track again. There are a number of simple
changes that your Practitioner can recommend that will kick start you back into weight loss.
Increasing incidental exercise eg. taking the stairs instead of the lift, may also be beneficial.
No weight loss programme is successful without support, so enlist the help of your Tony
Ferguson Practitioner for guidance and support throughout your weight loss journey. The
Tony Ferguson Weightloss Program is exclusive to Dis-Chem Pharmacies. To find out more
