High Fiber Diet

You may have heard that it is important to have a diet that is high in fiber. The reason is that without having a certain amount of fiber in your diet, you may have some challenges in moving things through your system - i.e. constipation. What things should you eat to help prevent this from happening. One good idea is fresh fruits. They usually have a lot of bulk in them and help keep your system clean. Other foods are raw vegetables. In fact, if you check out what is happening in the Fat Dad Thin Dad Series, you would see that Fat Dad is doing just that - eating lots of fresh fruit.

Good Alternatives To High Fiber Diet

One way to “keep things moving” is to do the same thing your self. Yes, that’s right. The more you move, the more the stuff in you moves. This comes in the form of planned exercise or even unplanned exercise. Go for a nice walk after you eat a meal and watch the difference it will make in how you process your food.

Bad Alternatives To Eating High Fiber Foods

Some people just want to take that short cut. You know, swallow a pill or drink a potion to make it happen. This short cut may work in the short term, but the challenge is that your body is not designed to keep getting shocked into moving things through it. What ends up happening is that your body becomes dependent on the product you are taking and the nature process could shut down or slow down drastically.

To add a piece of comedy to this, Fad Diet TV found a spoof video that illustrates the sheer strangeness in taking stuff to clean out your system and/or to lose weight. Watch…

What about you? Have you taken pills or potions that may have had a bad effect on your body that you didn’t want to have happen? Maybe even an accident that might have been embarrassing? As always, chose wisely in what you put into your mouth.

Chocolate Diet

I know this may show my age a bit, but how many of you remember the diet candy product called Ayds. You remember that little morsel you ate when you were hungry during the day that was to reduce your appetite. Of course with the way the use of words has changed, it might be hard to promote “Ayds”. Think about it. Your friend asks you how you lost weight, you tell them, “I have Ayds”. Yikes!

Chocolate Diet Program

While the company that started the Ayds candy to help people lose weight may have had a good idea, the real question you have to ask yourself is did it really train you to eat properly once you were done with your “diet”. You see, the biggest challenge that people have in losing weight is developing good eating habits. During the diet, they are forced to eat in a certain way. It is usually one in which the person would not do willingly if they weren’t so desperate to lose weight. Once it is over, they fall back on their normal eating patterns.

Diets Don’t Work

This is a statement that people ignore over and over again. They still run to the latest pill to lose weight, the latest severe diet program to lose weight, or to the latest exercise program to lose weight. They have no intention of doing anything other than lose the weight so they can get back to their life again. That’s why diets don’t work. Nothing really changes except for the amount you will continue to spend and support this diet industry.

Chocolate Diet Example

Fad Diet TV came across a pretty funny video that illustrates how people like to lose their weight. Fast and easy, don’t care how it works, just so I lose those unwanted pounds. Check it out…

What about you? How do you select a diet program? We hope you take some time to evaluate the full deal and to see if it will actually be something you can do long term.

Looking For A Diet Pill That Works?

Even though we would never recommend that any one take a diet pill, there are many people out there that look for the quick way to losing weight. They want the magic pill that they can take and make all their fat go away. The thought of actually taking personal responsibility and taking action to fix their weight gain is a strange notion. “Just give me the pill, won’t you”, is what they are thinking.

Diet Pill That Works?

Actually this question is rather interesting in the fact that while diet pills will help people lose weight, they don’t help you over come the real challenge at hand - what is causing you to gain it all back. In addition the pills come with extra benefits that people don’t think about when they take this short cut - I believe they are called side effects.

Diet Pill Side Effects

You know that long list of things that could go wrong that may never happen but could. Fad Diet TV found yet another great video to illustrate this point. Check it out…

The next time you think you need the short way out, think again. What about you? Have you ever had side effects from taking diet pills?

Until Next Time…

Diets From Hell

Have you ever gone on a diet and had some really bad effects from it? Maybe you hair where it wasn’t supposed to grow or it messed up something on your body. While this is not too fun, it would be interesting to log the bad stuff so people can avoid.

What about some exercise program which promised you those tight buns and chiseled abs. You know the ones you do in 5 minutes a day or less. How did that work for you? Did you get the results that they claimed or was it totally bogus, 100% crap.

Today, Fad Diet TV is going to open up a new category for its readers to share their own experiences from diet hell. However, there are a few rules you need to follow.

1) Keep it  clean. This is a family site so don’t write something that would be offensive. Just write the truth. You know the old saying that truth is stranger than fiction is actually true. So just present the facts.

2) As just stated, present the facts. Let’s not make up stuff that isn’t true. There are so many stupid diet programs out there that there is enough for everyone to write about that is true and factual.

3) If it is funny, we really want to hear about it. Why? Because that’s what Fad Diet TV is all about - having fun and showing just how crazy this industry can be.

You should see a new category show up at the top on this site once I post this and we look forward to some really great stories.

Until next time…
