With the summer just around the corner, more and more people are starting to panic about their weight, the promises made on New Year’s Eve have long gone and many of have slipped back into our old ways. I too am including myself in this group of people and as a result I went last week for a little bit of liposuction to help kick start my healthy living again. On a side note, anyone who wants to trim down some fat on those hard to reach areas should check out the Sono Bello reviews to see how amazing their laser liposuction is.

Whilst I was at the clinic last week I overheard two girls talking about how they planned to get in shape for the summer and their entire conversation was like a what’s what of fad diets. I have tried and failed with many of these diets and reached the conclusion that they are of no use and here is why.

Short Term

I take the point that if you have a wedding come up next week then you may think that it is a good idea to lose some weight by eating nothing but cabbage soup for the next week in order to slim down. For any other reasons than this though I simply cannot understand why anyone would want to go through the terrible ordeal of eating some of the foods in many of these diets in order to lose weight, only to put the weight back on with ease then next time you start eating anything that resembles real food again.

Health Concerns

Losing weight at great speed is not healthy for any part of your body, this kind of weight loss does not give your body time to catch up with itself and the consequences in later life can be very bad. Losing weight at speed is bad for your hair and your skin, so even if you have lost the weight that you wanted to, it is likely that your face will look disheveled and your hair will look dry which kind of negates the effect which you were after.

Miserable

If you’re anything like me then you too will think that most diets are pretty grim, even though they involve eating healthy food and you will feel more energy, they do bring me down a little. They don’t however bring me down to the level of which fad diets can. The meal choices that you find in any of these crazy diets are frankly disgusting and they just made me incredibly miserable. My experiences with many of these diets were that whilst I was losing weight, I turned into a cruel and angry person, a person who quite frankly, I did not like at all.

Losing the weight was great when I took on these diets but having become miserable, a little uglier and then finding myself putting all the weight back on shortly afterwards, I decided that they simply aren’t worth it.
