The Hollywood Diet - Does it Work?
Posted by fitnessguru in Prescription Diet Drugs on February 08th, 2010
Does the Hollywood diet work? The answer is yes and no, depending on what you are looking for. If you are just looking for dropping some quick pounds, then yes, it works. But what kinds of pounds are you dropping?
Let me tell you what you are not dropping. You are not dropping fat. Well, you are probably a little fat. But most of your weight loss will be something else. Mostly it will be water weight. There will also be a little muscle loss and some fecal loss.
If you’re interested in a diet, then you are most likely carrying around fat that you’d like to lose. I get that. So make sure what you do causes you to actually lose the weight. Losing water from your body isn’t good for you and is going to come right back when you get fully hydrated again at some point.
Honestly, you are not going to lose fat faster than about 1 pound per week. If you’re losing weight faster than that, it’s not fat. So you can instantly rule out any program that promises weight loss of more than 4 pounds per week. Either they are lying or you are going to lose something besides fat.
Yes, it’s a bummer that you can’t lose the weight faster, but that’s just how it is. Accept it and you’ve taken the first step towards weight loss.
The next step to take is to reduce the amount of food you take in, but not by much. Also you want to switch out the processed foods you eat for fresh and items you prepare yourself from scratch. That will give your body the building blocks it needs to flush the toxins out of your body.
Now here’s the catch. If you believe that the special drink is making you lose weight and you follow other healthy principles and change your lifestyle, then it will help. It will help your brain, which will help you. It’s the same way that a placebo will make you feel better. Your brain is helped by an illusion and in turn, it helps you.
You need to realize though, now that you’ve read this, the illusion probably doesn’t exist for you anymore. It’s just time to grow up now and take full responsibility for your own weight loss. And that’s the most rewarding thing, when you finally take personal responsibility.
