Want to Lose Weight? Here’s how. . . We’re not talking fads, but REAL diets for REAL women.
J
ust as with fashion, there are dieting trends that come and go with the times. Which is why we’ve looked beyond all the yo-yo promises to give you the top regiments that work, setting you up for lifelong success. In other words, don’t expect magic instantaneously. A well-thought-out, good-for-you plan is best. And that means hard work. It also means getting rid of unrealistic expectations and the notion that weight loss is “difficult,” “boring,” or solely filled with “rabbit food” that leaves you ravenous. Instead, the programs described on the next page show you how to incorporate wholesome habits into your life, to the point that you won’t feel like it’s a “diet,” or even identify it as healthy living; it will just be your lifestyle, period. Best of all, the food is delicious. It’s important to remember that you didn’t gain the weight in a week, so you can’t expect it to go away that quickly. And if it does, it should raise some serious red flags.
