How to Lose Pounds Fast

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) – While the low-fat diet craze led some doctors to worry that Americans would instead start eating too many carbohydrates, a new study suggests that eating low-fat doesn’t have to increase carbohydrate-fueled health risks.

Instead, if extra carbohydrates are part of a diet plan that includes more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, the risk of diabetes – the biggest related health concern — could actually drop, at least in older women, according to the findings.

However, a low-fat, high-carbohydrate diet could create problems in people who already have diabetes, researchers caution.

Losing weight with HCG Ultra Diet Drops

HCG has long been known to have helped thousands of men and women to lose weight.

The popularity of HCG has never really gained any momentum as a mainstream diet aid… until recently.

Like most things to do with the upcoming British royal wedding, the speculation that bride-to-be Kate Middleton may be a proponent of the Dukan Diet has catapulted it to the forefront of the media’s attention. The buzz started in earnest this past week when Middleton’s mother, Carole, reportedly admitted that she had tried the diet, leading others to conclude that Kate’s recent weight loss may be due to the plan as well. The palace has denied the rumors.

The Zone Diet, created by Dr. Barry Sears, is a somewhat scientific approach to dieting, which at its core focuses on controlling the hormone levels in your body that are key to weight control and health. The basic tenet, in bold headlines on the Zone Diet website is that it “… is not a diet. It’s a healthy, balanced lifestyle.”

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) – Replacing regular meals with shakes and prepackaged entrees boosts obese teens’ weight loss in the early stages of dieting, new research shows.

But these “meal replacements” were no better than a standard low-calorie diet for helping young people continue losing weight over the course of a year, Dr. Robert L. Berkowitz of the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and his colleagues found.

The South Beach Diet is a weight-healthy lifestyle designed by Dr. Arthur Agatston, a cardiologist and associate professor of medicine at the University of Miami. Originally developed as a weight-loss plan for his overweight heart patients, he found additional health benefits that led to further diet research and refinement. Thus the South Beach Diet was born.

There are three basic “phases” to the South Beach Diet:  (1) Eliminate Cravings and Kickstart Weight Loss; (2) Lose Steadily, and (3) Maintain for Life. In the first phase, which lasts two weeks, you will eliminate cravings for sugar and refined starches and jump-start your weight loss. This is done by eating nutrient-dense, fiber-rich foods, including lean meats, low-fat dairy, veggies, and eggs. This is similar to the Atkins Diet, where carbs play a very reduced role in the diet.
