There is no definitely no danger in just reading about diets. But please, never undertake any diet without discussing its pros and cons with a qualified health care professional. You can really harm yourself if you don't take proper precautions. And don't expect to lose pound after pound quickly and effortlessly. Keeping these precautions in mind you are now ready to consider the Best Life Diet.
The Best Life Diet was created by Bob Greene, but it became popular thanks to Oprah Winfrey who used it to lose weight. This diet is composed of three phases, which progressively lead you to change your eating habits and engage in physical exercise. During Phase 1 you keep your previous eating habits but engage in physical exercise on a regular basis. In Phase 2 you start to change your eating habits and increase the intensity of your exercise sessions. In Phase 3 you maintain your weight thanks to those habits that you acquired in the previous phases.
Here are some of the Best Life Diet principles: During Phase 1 eat three meals a day including a good breakfast and perhaps a snack. Integrate athletic activity into your daily life. Don't eat within two hours of going to bed. Drink lots of water all day long and take supplements if necessary. In Phase 2 follow the good habits acquired in Phase 1 and increase your physical activities. Be sensitive to your hunger signals. Eat reasonable portions. Eliminate the following foods from your diet: carbonated drinks, foods with trans fats as often found in prepared dishes, fried foods, white bread and standard pasta, and whole milk products. Substitute them with whole grain bread and pasta and skim milk products. In Phase 3 continue to follow the principles of the preceding phases. Increase your level of athletic activity and your consumption of whole grain products. Make sure to reduce your consummation of sugar, salt, and saturated fats.
The advantages of the Best Life Diet may include a good lifestyle with balanced diet and the regular practice of one or more sports. One disadvantage is the necessity of becoming a member to obtain information from the diet web site. Another is the excessive strictness in excluding some foods forever.
Here is a sample menu, one to be followed during Phase 2 of this diet:
For breakfast have a bowl of whole grain cereal, twelve almonds, and a glass of milk. For lunch have a pita chicken sandwich, three broccoli flowers, and an orange. Your mid-afternoon snack is a yoghurt, twelve almonds, and two tangerines. Supper is a grilled steak accompanied by a green salad, two cups of green peas, and a potato.
