LOSE WEIGHT WATCHERS and Weight LOSS

2. “To lose weight, you must avoid certain food combinations. ”
“This assertion is not based on any scientific data,” slice Catherine Lefebvre, dietitian at the center of reference on human nutrition Extenso. If your digestive enzymes were losing their effectiveness because of the suits, poorly digested foods provide less energy than expected, not anymore! “Indeed, enzymes form a team unrivaled; mixtures they are not afraid! ”

3. “The bread is fattening. ”
“Of chosen, it is rather a valuable ally to lose weight, objected Catherine Lefebvre. Those of whole grains rich in fiber, leading to a long digestion. Rassasiée quickly, you eat less. “An apple contains almost as many calories a slice of whole wheat bread, said Julie DesGroseilliers. Says one provided it is fat? “What’s tartine, however: butter, cheese, pâté… Ouille!

4. “Fasting purifies the body. ”
To deprive them of food is not beneficial! “The waste from the body are naturally eliminated in the feces and urine,” says Catherine Lefebvre. Fasting, in turn, causes the degradation of fat, which leads to the production of toxic substances that can have serious consequences on health, in addition to side effects - nausea, fatigue, falling blood pressure, and so on. ”

5. “The grapefruit is” melt “fat. ”
“No food has that power. Otherwise, everybody eat grapefruit! “Says Julie DesGroseilliers. The schemes grapefruit simply restricting caloric intake drastically. The weight loss has nothing to do with the citrus itself. “And a return to old habits announcement that the lost weight back,” laments Catherine Lefebvre.

6. “Foods” light “help lose weight. ”
Admittedly, the products’ low-fat ‘are generally low in calories, but they sometimes contain more sugar than the original, which is partly the difference. “And we are often brought to eat too, just because they are light,” warns Catherine Lefebvre.

8. “Eat before you go to bed is fattening. ”
“The timing of eating does not alter energy intake of food,” says Catherine Lefebvre. “But in the evening, Julie DesGroseilliers nuance, often you eat foods with low interest from a nutritional point of view: chips, cookies, chocolate, ice cream…” So where is this extra calories!

9. “Losing weight is simple: a short strict regime followed by a return to normalcy. ”
“A strict regime puts the body in a state of” survival “, denying essential to its proper functioning,” says Catherine Lefebvre. He then intensified its function to store the energy supplied by food, which can cause weight gain further after returning to a normal diet. ”

A previous research had highlighted the difficulties of sexual obese people. This research showed that they are 25 times more likely to report problems in their sex life that people of normal weight. The problems relate to the desire for sex, performance and enjoyment. Several avoid simply sexuality. As the population increasingly overweight and obesity adds, the problem will affect more and more people.

This research involved 928 obese men and women with an average body mass index of 40 and 282 normal weight people. BMI describes the weight compared to the grandeur. An overweight is defined by an index of between 25 and 29.9 and obesity by an index of 30 or more. An index of 30 on surplus represents approximately 30 pounds (13.6 kg), equivalent to a weight of 221 pounds for someone who is 6 feet and weighing 186 pounds with a person of 5.5 feet.

The research presented this week focused on the impact of weight loss on sexuality. For two years, 161 women and 26 obese men mean age 45 years, followed a diet and have lost an average of 13% of their original weight. They responded to a questionnaire about their sexuality at the beginning of the experiment and then every three months.

If 68% of women did not feel sexually attractive before starting the diet, they were more than 26% 12 months later. Similarly, about 63% admitted that they do not like being naked looks early in the investigation. Only 34% gave the same answer in a year.

The Acomplia

The Acomplia (rimonabant) has received marketing approval from the European Union in June 2006 when a committee of the FDA (the US Medicines) has just recommended the rejection of his application for leave to state Unis.

The Acomplia reduces system action in the brain responding to the cannabinoid system (which contributes to the sensation of pleasure). This system plays an important role in regulating appetite, energy expenditure and fat metabolism.

The effectiveness of this drug is relatively small. A clinical study involving 3000 American and Canadian participants, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) in 2006, shows that people who are obese or overweight who took the drug for one year while consuming less calories lost in average 14 pounds (about 6 pounds) compared with 10.5 pounds (approximately 4.5 kilograms) for the comparison group who had also reduced its consumption of calories while taking their knowledge to a product, rather than the inactive drug. A difference of 1.5 kg and therefore these results do not take into account those who have abandoned the test.

The drug also provided a slight reduction in the levels of fat in the blood and improved cholesterol.

The JAMA study also notes that participants who took the drug had a risk 2.7 times higher presenting disorders such as depression, anxiety and irritable mood and nausea. Because of these side effects, and a higher risk of suicide, combined with modest effectiveness, that the drug is not allowed in the United States.

The Meridia (Sibutral)

The Sibutral or Meridia (sibutramine) was introduced on the market in 2001 french. It works by increasing the amount of serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain to reduce the feeling of hunger and bring more quickly feel full.

One study showed that about 60% of people who took one year achieved a weight loss of about 5% of their weight. This drug does not work for all, about 10% of those who use it not to lose weight.

This medicine involves a risk of increased blood pressure. An improper use can lead to serious side effects such as cardiac arrhythmia, an increase in intraocular pressure which cause severe pain and bleeding. People suffering from heart problems and circulatory disorders should avoid taking sibutramine. We must also avoid taking along with drugs like antidepressants or a product such as John’s wort also acting on the concentration of serotonin in the brain.

For this reason, less than a year and a half after its approval, the French Agency for the Safety of Health Products (Afssaps) has restricted its use, reserving his prescription for some doctors and services specializing in the treatment of obesity .

Other drugs in this category have been removed from the market in France in 1997 because they could lead to pulmonary hypertension, a serious disease that can erupt over 5 years after cessation of this medication according to Afssaps. These drugs are Isoméride, Pondéral, Dinintel, Fenproporex, Incital and Moderatan.

The Afssaps warned of delayed effects of an appetite (France)

Some herbal may contain sibutramine. For example, Health Canada has issued a warning not to use two products slimming herbs imported from China, “Super Fat Burning” and “Slimming LiDa Daidaihua” because they contain sibutramine which requires medical supervision.

The Xenical and Alli

The Xenical (orlistat) blocks the absorption of some fat in the intestines.

Approximately 60% of people taking Xenical for 12 to 18 months have lost 5% or more of their weight compared to 46% in the comparison group after 12 months and 37% after 18 months.

Some side effects are gastrointestinal effects (diarrhea, incontinence). Another effect can be deficient in vitamins.

THE American FDA has authorized this week a new drug, Alli, which is a half-dose version of Xenical for sale free. It is expected to be available under another name in Europe in 2008.

Side effects in the long run these drugs

Side effects mentioned for these three drugs are in a short-term use. The greatest concern, however, concerns the lack of data on long-term effects. Many experts believe that, given their effectiveness very modest, it is not worth taking risks with these drugs.

Anti-obesity efficacy modest, long-term effects unknown

OTHER MEDICINES

The Topamax (topiramate), an anticonvulsant used to treat epilepsy and migraines, is sometimes used to reduce the urge to eat in people whose obesity is due to binge.

Eat less,

The recipe, everyone knows, we reduced quantities, we remove as much fat, it reduces the starchy, it maigrit.
     This way of losing weight is the most logical. However, some people fail to lose weight, others to maintain weight loss, and still others leave their morale. After a few tests, everyone is able to recognize its potential to lose weight, and consider the most feasible.

     For those that depress when they can eat more when they need or want, what works?

Spend more calories,

This is where life is horrible and unjust: there are people that the body needs more calories than the average to work, and vice versa. With the same work with the same diet, some will be scarce, others obese, others conform to the standard NF. (In the USA, the standard is a little different).

     Consolons a bit unlucky, in the event of famine, the first to pass the gun on the left will be those who need a lot of calories to live normally. The Hindus, particularly aware of this problem, have clearly understood: Obesity is a sign of beauty.

In practice, for the depressed regime

For them, life is not easy, they want to lose weight, they regimes, they depress almost automatically, and ultimately they are small treats between meals, it’s just if they remember . Morale is up, the weight also, sometimes even a little more. So they reduce the quantities, they removed the maximum fat …

 An expensive and slow

That is certainly the plan, which proposes a more holistic approach. We learn to buy, cook and eat balanced. The proposed dietary bases are correct. It does not lose weight dramatically with Weight Watchers, and so much the better.

Principle
This is to follow a diet prepared and attend every week in meetings of control (weighing), but also moral support, and motivations through exchanges between “clients”…
The food program is based on system POINTS (FlexiPoints).

Most
– Food, despite its caloric restriction remains balanced and without consequences for the organization.
– There is no doubt that the group dynamic improves the effects of a well-conceived plan. The support of others is great for all persons who fail to lose weight alone and that for once, really feel supported.
– Providing support, composed of nutritionists and dieticians, is competent, efficient logistics and reliable dietary information.
– We can do so for months without risk.
– Propose something viable in the long term. You learn to eat differently, to incorporate physical activity in their daily lives. In short, to rethink its way of life as a whole in order to be thin, once and for all.

The less
– The weekly meetings are quite restrictive in terms of availability and can consolidate a large number of participants, which limits a little customization of the method.
– This program is quite expensive:
. For the meeting: 9 or 13 €
. For the interview: 65 to 140 €
. For the VPC: 50 to 135 €

Description of the scheme / Stages

The weekly menu of the Max Planck diet consists of a lot of meat and eggs, however, little milk and fruit Certain vegetables can be eaten in unlimited quantity. Generally speaking, the Max Planck is a protein-rich diet diet, in which at the seven eggs, salad, vegetables and lean meat on the menu.

In the long-term view, this is not a permanent diet foods. Although a weight loss of nine pounds per week promised, this is rather unlikely. The metabolic change is equally uncertain and occurs under the menu suggestions are rather rare. The diet is very one-sided and there is therefore a danger that many essential vitamins and minerals not included in a natural way. If it does have a weight loss occurs, it is on the water loss. A significant deficit of this diet is just that, in none of the so-called slip a reference to sports activities can be found.

Word of mouth, flyers and the Internet are responsible for ensuring that the rumor of the Max Planck diet spreads. After two weeks, a weight loss of 9 kg promised, and a metabolic change, and the guarantee in the next 3 years after the start of the diet not to be increasing.

Many believe this still somewhat from diet, as it is relatively easy to execute. However, the food selection is relatively monotonous, so that it quickly desire and motivation loses. With a high Cholesterienspiegel this diet should not be tried werden.Jeder every doctor and nutritionist advises of a Max Planck diet.

In many Internet forum have been many sceptics about the Max Planck diet omitted. Many believe this diet for bungling and it is also already risen to the ear that the Max Planck Institute has tried to find out who is a diet under this name in circulation. The Institute has therefore any responsibility.
