A Guide to Flexible Dieting by Lyle McDonald
76 pages
What is the Guide to Flexible Dieting? The Guide
to Flexible Dieting by Lyle McDonald explans how when most people
diet, they take a fairly all or nothing approach. They expect 100%
perfection and any slip up, no matter how minor, tends to derail
their dieting efforts. Of course, the statistics show that most
people will fail on a diet, regaining all of the lost weight and
frequently more. That alone suggests that the type of extreme (let's
call it rigid) approach to dieting does more harm than good.
But research also suggests that flexible dieters, folks who take
a more relaxed approach to their eating habits tend to weigh less
and have less binge eating episodes; they do better in the long
run. A Guide to Flexible Dieting explains how the types of typical
extremist approaches to losing weight do more harm than good. It
explains how being more flexible, and how deliberately breaking
your diet, can actually make it work more effectively in the long
run. A Guide to Flexible Dieting is not a diet book in the typical
sense. Rather, it deals with some behavioral strategies that can
help make your diet work more effectively.
A Guide to Flexible Dieting by Lyle McDonald Topics Include:
- The difference between bodyweight and bodyfat and weight and
fat loss
- The physiology of bodyweight regulation
- A discussion of the reasons diets fail dieters and dieters fail
on their diets
- How flexible, as opposed to rigid, dieting can improve your
chance of success
- How to estimate your bodyfat percentage
- How to incorporate free meals, structured refeeds, and full
diet breaks into your diet
- How to eat at maintenance, including general eating guidelines
for people who hate counting calories
- How to move back into losing weight/fat and how to make adjustments
for optimum results
If you've always failed with previous diets because of your rigid
dietary habits, A Guide to Flexible Dieting will offer an alternative
approach. While there are no guarantees, you have nothing to lose
(and everything to gain) by trying a different approach the next
time you diet.
Other Titles by Lyle McDonald Include:
- Bromocriptine
- The
Ultimate Diet 2.0
