Dieting and weight control

Today there is no diet which is known as the best or top diet for weight loss. Everyone has different reasons for being overweight and there are different diets which suits them.

However, the massive amount of diets boils down to only three types:

• Low Calorie - requiring thorough planning and self-discipline


• Low Fat - is best for young physically very active people or for aging people naturally spending less energy


• Low Carbohydrate - attractive by the decreased appetite it causes and increased fat burning at rest

The point of dieting should not be to lose weight quickly – if you focus on this you'll just gain the weight back later.
