The first step to lose weight is to choose the right kind of diet to follow, which itself is a challenging task. Every day we come across different types of diets on the internet promising instant weight loss and it is obvious to get confused. Most people opt for the trendiest diet, just because of the big promises made by them. But remember, not every diet live up to the promise made by it and fail big time. Following these diets not only impacts your physical well being but it also affects you psychologically. So, if the diet you have chosen guarantees any of these 3 things then just drop it immediately. 1. It promises absolute resultsWeight loss is a slow process. You cannot come into a good shape at the snap of a finger. If there is a diet that promises a specific amount of weight loss in a specific amount of time, then just run away from it. No diet can guarantee this and if it does then it is a fad one. We all are different, our metabolism is different and so it is not possible to lose the same amount of weight. Even the most scientific diet cannot predict the exact amount of weight a person will lose in a given time. If your diet does not live up to the promised number then this will also harm you emotionally. 2. If it requires you to spend a lot of money The diet you follow should not be very expensive to maintain. If your diet requires you to include a lot of supplements and special products then there is no point pursuing it. The diet you are following should not burn a hole in your pocket. You can lose weight even by eating simple and easily available food items. Also, it is not necessary to have supplements to shed kilos. 3. It categorises certain food groups as dangerousThere is a thing about a fad diet, they use the scare tactic to make more and more people fall for it. But this does not work in the long run. Some diet restricts the consumption of certain food items like legumes, dairy, and wheat without any valid evidence. If your chosen diet does the same then it is certainly not a good idea to follow it.
