Begin Weight Loss With a Clean Slate – Fast Diets




Preparing your body for weight loss by choosing from the many available fast diets can give you a clean slate that will ensure the foods you eat on a diet plan are absorbed into your body the way they should. Valuable nutrients and vitamins can’t be properly distributed in a body that’s clogged with contaminates.

These pollutants inhibit the filtering organs like the kidneys and liver and restrict their effectiveness, causing the good food that you eat to be less effective in your weight loss program. But, when you begin a weight loss plan by fasting for awhile, these toxins are flushed from your body in a natural manner and the organs will be working faster and more effective when you begin eating normally.

There are many types of fast diets available, for almost any type of lifestyle. Some of the most popular ones include:

· Juice fasts ? Drinking only fruit and vegetable juices is a form of detox diet. No food is consumed during the fast ? only juices and water. Juice fasts are used for fast weight loss and stubborn pounds that you’re having difficult losing.

· Raw food fast ? A great alternative to strictly liquid diets, you can munch on raw veggies and fruits during the day and of course drink plenty of water. Sometimes juice is allowed on a raw food fast, depending on which one you choose.

· Tea fast ? There are certain types of teas that promote body detoxification and help you lose those stubborn pounds. Just be sure that you choose organically grown teas that are free from additives.


There are several different ways you can fast ? or make up your own. Fast on the weekends if you wish or fast one day and eat healthily on the next. When you’re attempting to lose weight, it sometimes helps to lessen caloric intake drastically for awhile. Your taste buds will be ready and willing to accept healthy foods that are free from chemicals and additives.

When fasting does its job, your entire system will be cleansed of most of the harmful side effects of eating what most of us are guilty of eating ? fast foods, processed foods and too much starch and sugar. The cravings for these foods will eventually disappear as you replace a “normal” diet with a healthy one.

Since your organs are more effective after a fast, they can do their jobs better and weight loss will be rapid. There are so many health benefits when you fast, but you also have to be careful about which fast you choose. For example, if you’re pregnant or suffer from a disease like diabetes, fast diets probably aren’t something you should try. Before any type of diet change be sure and get a complete checkup from your health care provider.

The Basic Diet Plan Mistake


There is a real failure out there with the classic basic diet plan. With so much information available on diet and weight loss, I am still not sure why people fail to lose weight. Sure, everyone makes mistakes, but it is the magnitude of the mistake that will determine the success or failure of your weight loss plan.

For example, if you make the small ‘mistake’ of eating one burger a week, it won’t make any significant difference in your body weight. However, if you make the terrible diet mistake I am going to outline in this article, then you have no chance of ever becoming successful at fat loss.

If you’ve ever followed a basic diet plan, this would sound familiar. The process goes thus:

Basic Diet Plan

The Basic Diet Plan Mistake

Basic Diet Plan

1. You pick up a diet plan that is too strict for any average person

2. This diet plan basically deprives you of almost everything that you enjoy: chips, burgers, pastries, white bread, cakes, biscuits, milk, chocolate, soft drinks, etc. So you have no other option but to throw away all those things from your kitchen. You start following the diet program with all good intentions, and promise yourself that you would never quit it until you have lost weight successfully.

3. You lose a few pounds quite rapidly within the first few weeks. You seem to be happy with your progress when suddenly, one day you realize that you are no longer shedding pounds! You have hit a weight loss plateau.

4. You become frustrated with your diet plan and with its restrictions. You find it too hard to control your food cravings so you take a peek at your refrigerator and take one bite of your favorite junk food. You say to yourself ‘one bite won’t do much harm’.

5. Slowly however this binge-eating habit spirals out of your control until you find it quite impossible to stay on your diet. You then start shopping for all those junk foods that you had promised not to eat!

6. You get back to your normal lifestyle, start eating junk foods again as before, and gain back all the pounds you had lost! You are back to square one.

Why a Basic Diet Plan Does Not Work

It all started with just one wrong decision on your part: the decision to lose weight rapidly. That decision ultimately sabotaged your weight loss plan. In your quest for fast weight loss, you chose a diet plan that promised the moon but was in no way suitable for you! You tried to make huge changes in your lifestyle all too fast, and ended up achieving nothing.

In case you haven’t realized it already, the best way to lose weight is by making small changes in your lifestyle! That is because small changes are far more practicable and viable than larger ones.

Make lots of Small Changes Consistently

I have written lots of articles on the blog here that should help you to find these tips I even wrote one about how to lose weight quickly which would be a great place to start.
