Lose weight on 1200 calories - the effects it can have on your health

There are some diets that want everyone to lose weight on 1200 calories. While this can be effective in the short term, it can have devastating effects on your health.

Losing weight is hard work, and allowing yourself to be hungry during the process is so much like torture.
If you are trying to lose weight on 1200 calories, you may find yourself with inadequate amounts of nutrition that your body really needs.

You can also put your body into starvation mode so that when you go off your calorie limited diet, not only will you gain back any weight you might have lost, but you will gain back more as your body struggles to hold on to all those extra calories for the next time you decide to starve yourself.

I don't think there are many people who really like to lose weight on 1200 calories...let's face it...no one likes to feel hungry.
Your better off opting for a diet that is a closer fit to your needs and lifestyle.

You can do it!

Have You Been Eating Your Fiber?

Fiber is a very important part of our diets, and if you are not eating a sufficient amount, you could be stalling your weight loss attempts.

Getting a good amount of fiber in your diet, at least 25 grams a day, will help you feel fuller at meals and may fend off any cravings you may get.

It is best to eat several times a day, spreading out your fiber between your main meals and snacks.

You can do it!

Don't forget your water!

When dieting or trying to lose weight, many people forget to drink a big enough quantity of water.

Our bodies are made up of mostly water, and throughout the day we need water to replenish our bodies. When we exercise, we need even more water.

Make sure you are remembering to drink your water every day. If you don't much like water, substitute some of your water with sugar free beverages.

You can do it!
