How to Avoid Common Weightloss Diet Traps
Don't Let these Common Weightloss Traps Stall Your Low Carb Diet
  • Denying Food Cravings
    Debbie Reynolds once said that "sex is like air...you don't miss it until you're not getting any!" Well, the same can be said about denying food cravings. If you've been dreaming of foods such as cake, pasta, bread etc but force yourself to eat salads, you could simply end up filling the unmet need with too many calories from other foods. So eat a SMALL portion of whatever you feel you are being deprived of on your new diet plan, and watch how easily the craving disappears.
  • Cooking and Cleaning Alone
    I know this may sound strange, but studies show that when you cook or clean up alone, you sample food and are tempted to nibble on leftovers, which can add "ghost" calories/carbs to any meal. So let your family participate in the process so you don't overeat.
  • Ordering an Entree at a Restaurant
    Entrees have been supersized and can add a whopping load of calories/carbs to your diet plan, so always order appetizer dishes instead when eating out.
  • New Diets are Exciting
    Let's face it. When you start a new diet, the change is exciting, but after a week or so, it's easy to tire of the routine, so you have to change your mindset and look at this as a lifestyle change and not expect every day to offer a glamorous change in your body. It WILL happen, but only over time and with consistency in your goals.
  • Rapid Weightloss is All Fat
    Yeah right. Well, that is what many diet plans would like you to think when they offer an induction plan. In reality, all that is lost is a lot of water and even some muscle, so skip the induction phases and just start on the slower, controlled weight change that comes with moderate changes in your diet. Remember, exercise is important to keep your muscles toned and to serve as the furnace for burning more sugar as you work.
