For
Some people who are trying to lose weight, "calorie" is a dirty word,
but a calorie count diet is the basics of all successful weight loss
programs. To lose significant weight , a person must choose
a low calorie diet plan that teaches one to count calories
consumed and calories used in some form of an exercise calorie counter.
Weight Watchers is probably the most financially successful
of the calorie count diets. Weight Watchers uses the point system.
Why points and not calories. Weight Watchers has
realized that foods with fat are readily digested by the body and foods
that have fiber are a little more difficult to digest and therefore the
body is unable to utilize all the calories from foods with high fiber.
These adjustments are minor. the real reason Weight watchers
uses points is that it is easier to remember how many points one uses
in a day than to keep up on points. Points is a way to round off the
calories. (example 63 calories = 1 point) It is
much easier to remember 1 than to remember and deal with the math of
63. ( If you are allowed 20 points a day, you can now eat 19
more points. If you are working with calories and you just have 1500
calories a day ....1500-63= ? . See how
hard it is to do in your head. ) The disadvantage
of points is that you have to have a little devise (point finder) with
you to convert the calories, fiber, fat...to points. The real
advantage comes from the education of what is good to eat and only get
so many points. This is very similar to the
"Eat This Not This" series of books. I
have just given you two good ways in which to educate yourself about
calories, but they can be a bit expensive. Now is your chance
to rate the various programs for their ability to educate one about the
calories in food, the calories used by exercise and the
bodies ability to adjust to calorie restriction. What is your
favorite calorie count diet? Help
others find a good calorie count diet by rating any programs that you
are familiar with.
