Diet Shock
from: Michael A. Smith, MDPrevent Diet Shock...then you can finally lose weight and keep it off.
Diet Basics releases a revolutionary new system that makes your diet work. The new system complements your current weight loss program and helps it to prevent diet shock and ultimately, weight regain.
Diet Shock Definition
Diet Shock describes a state of emergency energy conservation your body enters when faced with fewer calories and weight loss. In an energy conservation state, your body will counteract your own efforts to lose weight to protect against starvation.
Starvation? Yes, all diets lead to weight loss by lowering the amount of food you eat. When you eat fewer calories your own body interprets this as a potential food shortage and it responds by conserving energy, so that you can survive the famine.
It takes time for the body's efforts to show. Usually, by the time you stop dieting, the stage is set for weight regain, the gaining of weight during or immediately after dieting.
Diet Shock, initiated by dieting to lose weight, results in weight regain for about 67% of first time dieters. Bottom line...dieting causes weight gain, specifically weight regain! But it gets worse...
Diet Shock's Legacy
Diet Shock's legacy is the Yo-Yo Diet. You know, weight cycling, where you gain weight then lose weight and then gain weight and then lose it again, this is Diet Shock's main consequence.
Studies have now shown that weight cycling is as bad for your health as obesity. Does this mean you give up? No! It means you diet smart. How do you diet smart?
