Fad
diets fade fast but nutrition lasts
Smart
diets and exercise are the right way to go
Fad
diets are exactly what the name entails: a fad. They die
out just as quickly as they come in. There’s always
a new diet that promises you will reach your ideal weight
in no time at all, get the perfect form or the opposite
sex to notice you.
So what’s the problem with these “lifesaving”
diets? Why shouldn’t they be appealing? The answer
is that most of them don’t work anyway and just leave
us feeling hopeless.
Many people go from diet to diet because they can’t
find one they are content with. The real secret is just
to eat healthy and exercise regularly. Don’t compromise
good food for a diet that doesn’t give you all you
need from the food pyramid. You’re selling yourself
short on nutrition your body needs to be healthy.
Real happiness doesn’t come from reaching your ideal
weight. It’s common knowledge that once you get to
the point you want, you become dissatisfied with something
else. Perfection may not be possible; however, real happiness
is when you can appreciate who you are and not obsess
so much about superficial things. Look in the mirror and
smile instead of wishing for something more. |
