A balanced diet
Despite what you see in some diet books and TV programmes, healthy eating can be really straightforward.
A diet based on starchy foods such as rice and pasta, with plenty of fruit and vegetables, some protein-rich foods such as meat, fish and lentils, and some milk and dairy foods (and not too much fat, salt or sugar) will give you all the nutrients that you need.

Eat to Live Diet Review
Dr. Joel Fuhrman's Eat to Live diet plan gets my recommendation as the best diet for losing weight and being healthy. It isn't, however, cheap or easy, so you must really want to make this lifestyle change or you will find yourself unwilling to stick with the program.

Vegetarians aren't always Healthy
A vegetarian diet can be used for effective weight loss, or it can be a disaster. A vegetarian diet does not necessarily mean a healthy one. Potato chips, cheese, cookies, and soft drinks can all be part of a vegetarian diet. A healthy vegetarian diet, however, can help you lose weight and feel great.
How much weight should I lose?
Are you looking for a rapid weight loss in the beginning? Often, fast weight loss at the start of the diet will give you the motivation to keep going. Keep in mind that few weight loss programs can maintain a rapid weight loss.
High Protein
High protein - controlled carbohydrate diets are all the rage. But... do they work? Are they safe? Can you live with one?
The answer to all three questions is an unqualified YES. In fact, the medical community has not been able to discount the benefits even though some, like Atkins, have been on the market for decades. The reason they cannot discount them completely is that they work.

Choosing the right diet
Are you the type of person who wants a prescriptive diet - one that tells you exactly what and how much to eat at each meal?
Then you may find Calorie Counting the ideal choice - with your comprehensive list of how many calories are contained within each food, you can happily weigh and work out exactly what you can eat daily and steadily lose weight. The best way to be successful at this is to keep a food diary of everything you eat. WeightWatchers uses an easy point system, which simplifies calorie counting but works on the same principle.

How to lose weight successfully and keep it off
As the saying goes, moderation in all things - the reason most diets and weight loss plans fail is because they are unsustainable. You might start off with the best of intentions, a new gym membership and an 800 calorie a day intake but if you set yourself too high a target, you'll miss it and end up disheartened and reaching for the chocs.

Running for Weight Loss
Many people start running because they want to lose weight. As one of the most vigorous exercises out there, running is an extremely efficient way to burn calories and drop pounds. A 150-pound person will burn approximately 100 calories per mile when running. If you're hoping to use running to lose weight, here's some advice on how to be successful.
1. Healthy Eating is the First Step
If you want to lose weight by running, keep in mind that you'll only shed pounds if you burn more calories than you consume. To lose a pound, you have to burn, through exercise or life functions, about 3500 calories. So you'll need to combine running with a healthy diet. Runners do have special nutrition needs, but the basic principles for healthy eating still apply. Try choosing smaller portions of high-fat and high-calorie foods and eating more whole grains, fruits, and vegetables.
