Sugar Cola For Fat Loss?
There was recently a debate about whether cola products actually do cause fat gain within the Fad Diets That Work group. Some pointed out that caffeine has a fat loss effect (-0.02% per day) according to the Fad Diets That Work historical data. It was theorized that perhaps that would be enough to counteract the weight gain effects of sugar which is the primary ingredient in cola soft drinks. A further argument proposed that American based cola which usually contains high fructose corn syrup would probably be a fat gainer, but international versions of cola products that actually did contain the more benign sugar ingredient might be fat losers. We don’t guess with the Fad Diets That Work protocol.

Diets that Work – An Introduction
Lots of people need to lose weight, and lots of people are always on the look out for diets that work. It’s not really hard to find diet plans that work, but finding a diet a person can stick to is the problem. The diet industry is huge. With books, diet food programs, trainers and nutritionists, spas, and all the other elements of the health and diet industry a lot of loot, over 46.8 billion dollars in 2005, is made not from people becoming healthy or losing weight, but rather from people attempting to become healthy or lose weight. Because repeat business brings in the cash, the focus is naturally on methods and products that work for a short time but result in return business.
Here’re some diets that work. Combine limiting caloric intake to 1000 calories each day with at least 30 minutes of exercise at least 5 days a week. It’s a guarantee you’ll lose weight. Only two small problems. #1 cravings will likely end the diet. 1000 calories and all that exercise will eventually lead to big hunger and binge eating. First it’s a potato chip or piece of cake, then it’s an extra hot dog and the whole bag of chips, and then the diet is history. The second problem is what happens after the diet ends? What happens when the weight is gone? What, you’ll go right back to eating the same way you ate before the diet? Guess what, then the weight will return. Next spring, or next time to [wear that dress or tuxedo, or next vacation, or simply the next time you glance at a mirror on the way out of the bathroom it will be once again be diet time.
The best diets that work are permanent diets. A lifestyle change to healthier eating habits and more exercise is the best way to lose weight and keep off the unwanted pounds. The Sonoma Diet, created by Connie Guttersen, focuses on ten “power foods”. The power foods are almonds, bell peppers, blueberries, broccoli, grapes, olive oil, spinach, strawberries, tomatoes and whole grains, eaten in conjunction with the cuisine of the Sonoma country, which includes Asian, Latin American and Mediterranean foods and dishes. The diet is full of real food, and real portions, combined into enjoyable dishes to help encourage someone to stay with it.
Want diets that work? Shift the focus away from a short term diet to permanent eating habits that go along with an overall healthy and active lifestyle. That way you won’t put on the pounds in the first place.

Slimming Down By Exercise and Proper Nutrition
Getting fit and losing weight is the one surefire method for getting rid of belly fat. Those that want to learn how to get rid of belly fat must realize that it will take good exercise habits as well as watching what you eat. It will require dedication and motivation to follow a proper diet and to exercise. You will have to find the will and a desire to control what and how much you eat as well as moving your body.
Proper nutrition is necessary to begin the weight loss. Eating too much is one way how people get overweight. It sounds obvious. The problem is they go back for seconds or eat until they are absolutely full. This is not the result you hope for. You should always feel satisfied with your food intake but not to the point that you feel stuffed. There is no reason to load up your plate with food and consume every morsel. Get smaller portions and/or do not eat all of the food on your plate, despite what your mother may say. Also you should condition yourself not to go back for seconds.
Exercsing and eating a healthy diet will both be important. The goal is to get fit as well as to get rid of belly fat. Living a sedentary lifestyle will not cut it. Many fitness experts suggest simply moving by gardening or doing housework. Most likely if you want good results it will require a little more effort. The beginner can start by taking a brisk walk. Running, cycling and/or swimming will be the next step in getting fit by increasing the intensity. Strength training is also something to consider to tone and tighten up muscles and to keep your metabolism high.
It will require being properly motivated to maintain a proper diet and exercising. For many people exercise is not enjoyable. They can find any number of things they would rather do. Getting up early before work to exercise is tough to do. Conversely it is difficult to bother getting fit when you get home from work. But if you want to get fit and healthy this is what will be required. You have to find time to exercise at least four times a week to get maximum benefit.
Burning belly fat is something that will be good for your health. The less weight you have to carry on your frame the easier it is for your heart and cardio system to work. If you want to lose weight and get fit you will have to find motivation within yourself. There are tons of resources available to achieve both.
