Dieting
By Hamilton Magtibay
Diet seem to stress alot of people when they hear this word; as if they have to go through some kind of torture & starvation process in able to lose weight. But in reality, you just have to make minor adjustments or changes to your daily meals. And today's food market including restaurants and dietary supplements provides more selections of great tasting healthy alternatives such as sugar free, low fat food items, fat free items, sodium free, low-carb, and leaner cuts of meat.
So does dieting still sounds bad?
Regardless if you're trying to lose weight or gain lean muscle, you will have to follow a good diet. It may sound simple enough, but the biggest questions are What Type Diet to Follow?
Which Diet Works Best? And What Should I Eat?
For starters, make sure you have an idea how much calories you’re currently consuming on a daily basis and use that as a starting point on how much calories you should be consuming to reach your goal. There could be more than one diet to follow, but we’ll give you a few guidelines on a couple of well- known diets that are quiet popular.
Low Carbohydrate Diet
There are different versions of “Low Carb” diets out there, but their foundation is based on a Low Carbohydrate Diet. This diet is also very appealing because you can eat all the meats, fish, poultry, & whole egg products regardless of the cooking method as long as it doesn’t contain any Carbohydrates of course; which is why this diet is so difficult to follow for some individuals. But if you decide to follow this diet, below are a few food items that are a key benefits for this diet.
1. Beef: Beef is rich in protein, Amino Acids, creatine and also provides good energy; Greek warriors were known to feast on beef the night before their battle for strength.
2. Eggs: Great for breakfast along with bacon; cook your eggs anyway you want
3. Chicken: Cook it anyway you want
4. Fish: Preferably Salmon because its rich in EFA, but cook it anyway you
5. Pork: Great for breakfast and snacking (ham); but cook it anyway you want
Though high fat foods are great for this diet, just try not to over do it and maybe just stick within the median or lower amount for obvious health reasons. And also TRY to stay away from processed foods such as spam, corned beef, canned sausages, etc... because it contain lots of preservatives and are usually low in nutrients.
Low Fat Diet
This is a classic weight loss diet that yields good results, but is often under looked since a lot of dieters want more taste and convenience while dieting. However, if you decide to do this diet you will notice that there will be more flexibility in comparable to Low Carb diet. For instance, you can set up one day or one meal as your “Eat All You Can Cheat Meal” where as you can’t do this with Low Carb diet since you will literally break the diet or may even have to start over if you go beyond the Carb limits.
Furthermore, your energy level will always be in good standing and you won’t have to leave the bun aside when you eat your favorite burgerJ but please keep in mind that you will have to eat nutrient dense foods to get the best out of this diet. And SALAD is NOT one of them; if anything salad is like a healthy version of junk food – not enough carbohydrates for energy and not enough protein to rebuild muscle tissues. Below is a list of complex carbohydrate rich foods and low fat meat choices that are key ingredients for this diet.
Complex Carbohydrates: baked yams (no oil or added juice), brown rice, oatmeal, wheat bread, beans, barley (good with soup)...etc
Low Fat Meats: skinless chicken breast, lean cuts of beef such as flank steak & tenderloins, pork tenderloin, turkey breast, salmon…etc
Try to grill majority of your food since this cooking style yields the most flavor without adding too much ingredients; Seasoning Salt and fresh ground pepper are usually good for any grilled meat or fish product.
