So many people want to know how to lose weight, but\u00a0don’t want to “sacrifice” or feel like they are “depriving” themselves.\u00a0
\u200b
\u200bWell guess what. The best weight loss plan is not to “diet” but to simply have a healthy diet and healthy habits.
\u200b
\u200bI know, that’s not nearly as exciting as an app or a sticker book or a magic berry, pill, tea or celebrity guru, but it’s the truth.
\u200b
\u200bWhen people tell me that they don’t want to deprive themselves and they are talking about healthy whole foods, I say DON’T!! Why would you?\u00a0
\u200b
\u200bBut when they tell me they don’t want to deprive themselves and they’re talking about foods that are packed with refined sugars, saturated fats, corn syrup, bleached flours, artificial sweeteners, colours and flavours and phosphates…\u00a0
\u200b
\u200bI have to wonder if they know that what they’re really restricting, or\u00a0depriving themselves of, is damage to the immune system, \u00a0high blood pressure, diabetes, cardiac disease, inflammation, cancers, autoimmune disorders, joint pain, brain fog etc…
\u200b
When somebody tells me they don’t want to deprive themselves because they can’t live without their\u00a0Doritos\/Pepsi\/FrootLoops\/Oreos\/Mars Bar\/Kraft singles (which contain natamycin btw – \u00a0an anti-fungal agent that also is used to treat fungal eye infections- yummmmmm),
\u200b
\u200bI feel like I’m listening to a smoker or addict saying that they don’t want to quit because they don’t want to “deprive” themselves.
\u200b
\u200bYou’re not depriving yourself. You’re saving yourself. Don’t stop eating those things to lose weight, (although you probably will) stop eating them because they’re literally poison.\u00a0
\u200b
\u200bIf you’d like more info on exactly why and how some of your favourite foods negatively impact your health, I HIGHLY recommend Dr Michael Greger’s book How Not To Diet.\u00a0
