Like clockwork or the changing of the seasons, it never fails. Every year, millions of people vow to lose weight. Whether it's a formal New Year's resolution, or just the time after the excess of the holidays that people say "now I'm going to do it," January is the time when the most gym memberships are sold and more people search the internet for diet ideas.
By the time Groundhog's Day rolls around for many of them, or the first day of Spring for the rest, most of those diets have been abandoned, and the weight gain/loss cycle continues.
Here's an idea for you: think more of "diet" instead of "a diet." Don't starve yourself in a futile effort to lose weight, or adopt a fad diet that you'll be unable to sustain. Instead, simply eat reasonable quantities of real food.
Huh? "Reasonable quantities of real food?" How's that work?
The reason diets don't work is that they're not sustainable. However, by changing your attitude toward food, and adopting healthier eating habits you can continue for the rest of your life, you'll be able to reach and maintain a healthy weight.
Don't over-eat, and don't eat fake foods. Following the Revolutionary Diet, eating foods our founding fathers ate and getting some regular exercise, you'll be able to achieve your weight loss and other health goals - and keep it up for the rest of your life!
