Say No To Restrictive Weight Loss Diets!

Have you ever seen so many types of diets like there are nowadays? Most of them are turning the simplicity of eating well-balanced, simple meals into some complex system. What you don't need is to spend more money on these so-called repackaged, new fad diets. Don't fall for the marketing, take a good look, and research before making a decision. Searching for the word “diet” brings a huge number of search results.  Huge amounts of data that tell you dieting is your answer for losing weight. Don't eat this, don't eat that. A lot of it is just confusing drivel. What it comes down to is dieting has become a method for restricting your eating habits. You start restricting your diet and the body will react with a big fat "no way man!" It never works. But people never learn and try the next new shiny diet that comes along, promising you the world. Most people have some kind of false idea of what a “healthy” body looks like, or how a “healthy” body should be shaped. This has completely changed in the last 50 years.  Men and women are and have always been obsessed with body image, shape, and size. Whatever the style of body image for both men and women was in the past, the chubby, rotund body image is no longer desirable.  So, what do we do? We change our diets. We look for quick fixes that will correct our undesirable bodies without much effort. We search for that one secret that makes all of our troubles go away instantly. We jump into fad diets. We engage in a diet mentality. We seriously get into diet restriction! This diet mentality is a way of approaching nutritional choices through dysfunctional corrections like: Is this “healthy?” Does what I'm about to eat fit into my restrictive diet? What will I have to sacrifice later? What's the cost on the treadmill I'll have to pay for this piece of cake? I hope this podcast helps you to think differently about food and your diet. Eating should be enjoyable, not stressful. Take it easy with yourself, give yourself time to eat in a relaxed way, enjoy every bite of every meal. Try it and experience the difference in your life!
