No More BS: Dieting 101

Low-carb, no-carb, low-fat, no-fat, Atkins, Paleo, Zone, Ketogenic, South Beach, Intermittent Fasting...

If you’ve dieted before, you probably spent a ton of time looking up the right type of diet for you. Here’s the dirty secret: the diet you pick should be the one that is easiest for you to follow

If you love to eat carbs, don’t pick a no-carb diet. If you don’t mind skipping breakfast and can restrict post-dinner snacking, you should consider Intermittent Fasting (where you only eat during one eight hour span per day). 

Losing weight means cutting calories.

If your entire daily diet was four slices of cheese pizza and water, you would actually lose weight (without even having to go to the gym). The “pizza diet” is real! It’s maybe not the best way to diet - since your body needs vitamins and proteins that pizza won’t contain, but it proves a point: stick to a diet that you can follow. Don’t do anything extreme!
