At some point in everyone's life we look in the mirror and wonder if we need to lose weight. We want to reduce the midsection fat that has appeared every year as we get older. However most people don't have patience to follow a diet though and as a result resort to rapid weight loss diets. The question is asked though if rapid weight loss diets really work?

The best way to think of rapid weight loss diets is they are the same to starving yourself and as quick as you lose the weight, it will be replaced just as quickly when you start eating properly again. There are also some serious side effects that people must be aware of if they insist on carrying out rapid weight loss diets.

The first one is a constant feeling of hunger which leads to irritably and you won't be able to focus on the normal day-to-day tasks such as work or cleaning the house. Think of it as an addiction withdrawal. The body needs food and if you starve it by following rapid weight loss diets then the body will suffer maybe even in the form of depression.

The second most noticeable side effect is a loss of energy. If you don't put petrol into a car it won't work and the same applies to the body and food. The loss of energy will give you a reduced sex drive, fatigue and possibly even result in you fainting. Bloodshot eyes and a dull skin will make everyone think you suffer from Anorexia.

So to reduce your midsection fat, rapid weight loss diets do not work because the success is short-lived and also defeated by all the side effects that go with it. The key to losing weight is to follow a diet that provides all the nutrients that your body needs whilst still fitting into your average day. A low carbohydrate diet for example does not do this and once again energy levels are drained because of the lack of nutrients.

The Mike Geary diet plan allows you to put together a diet which suits you and still provides you with all the nutrients you need. The basis of this diet is to know which diet foods that are said to help us lose weight actually help the body to store fat. It involves staying away from foods that have Estrogen compounds and surprisingly including a certain type of saturated fat in our diet. This saturated fat helps the body to burn its overall body fat to under 10% and at the same time allows you to keep up weight loss that will stay off and not re-appear two weeks later.
