People who need to lose weight are constantly seeking diets that work. The issue isn’t really finding a diet that works, but rather locating a diet to which a person can stick. The 46.8 billion dollar diet industry depends not on people staying healthy and staying thin, but rather on people taking an endless roller coaster ride between health and fat. Because the money comes from repeat business, the focus is surely on the ping-pong reality of un-healthy living followed by short periods of diets and health programs. So you want a diet that delivers? Here’s one. Drink only water, eat only a thousand calories every day, and combine it with 30 minutes of aerobic fitness pilates five times a week. That diet will result in lost weight. Only two small problems. #1 cravings will likely blow the diet.

Sooner or later, particularly after returning home from fat burning workouts, those 1000 calories won’t be sufficient to satisfy. First it’s a potato chip or piece of cake, then it’s an extra hot dog and the whole bag of chips, and then the diet is ended. The second problem is what happens after the diet ends?

What happens when the weight is gone? What, you’ll return to eating the same way you ate before the diet? Guess what, then the weight will return. Next spring, or next fancy dress occasion, or next vacation, or simply the next time you look into a looking glass on the way out of the bathroom it will be once again be diet time.

The best diet is a permanent diet. A lifestyle change to healthier eating habits and more exercise is the best way to lose weight and keep off the weight. The Sonoma Diet, created by Connie Guttersen, focuses on 10 “power foods.” The power foods are almonds, bell peppers, blueberries, broccoli, grapes, olive oil, spinach, strawberries, tomatoes and whole grains, combined with the diet of the Sonoma country, which includes Asian, Latin American and Mediterranean foods and dishes.

The diet includes a wide variety of real, and enjoyable foods so it’s easy to stay on it . Want a diet that works? Shift the focus away from a short term diet to a long term style that’s part of an overall healthy and active lifestyle. That way you won’t gain the pounds in the first place.
