Rapid Weight Loss – An Introduction

The amazing miracle weight loss system that can make you lose 10 pounds in 10 days no matter what you eat! Eat whatever you want, eat more than you want, eat double what you want, and still lose weight with no exercise! Drop one pant size in a day, but beware because this might work so well you’ll pop out of existence! If these advertising claims are true then rapid weight loss is a miracle solution of the modern world, requiring no effort on the dieter’s part.
Hogwash! But even though they mostly aren’t true, Americans spend over 40 billion dollars a year on rapid weight loss pills, programs and products that simply don’t work. That doesn’t stop people from coming up with all sorts of crazy diets and weight loss products. Failure doesn’t stop new diets from springing up out of the wood work, or people from trying them. Remember Joe Frazier’s diet, chew the food but spit it out? He claimed it made him full and gave him all the nutrients without the fat. See, mimes had the secret to weight loss all the time. Then there are the magic pills, creams, and diet supplements that guarantee to burn pounds without exercise, guaranteed. No that wasn’t a typo, they mention the word guarantee so often it starts to lose meaning. And when they don’t mention precisely the details of the “guarantee” it doesn’t have any meaning. It’s simply a tricking people to think the product works.
Studies show that Very Low Calorie Diets, or VLCDs, work. People got wind of this and now try them at home. That’s a problem because of their nature. VLCD’s are extreme diets designed for seriously overweight people. These diets often include eating half or less of their daily caloric intake. They’re meant to be implemented in medically supervised closed settings, where people can’t cheat. When used outside of a closed setting, often a clinic called a “fat farm,” these diets can be harmful to the dieters health and will generally not work because of binge eating after a period of partial starvation.
Rapid weight loss program, if it works, creates a number of problems with the body. Painful Gallstones develop in up to 25% of people who lose large amounts of weight over a few months. Uneducated dieters can often become dehydrated because they don’t realize a large portion of the water people need to drink comes from foods. It’s easy to compensate for this by drinking more water. Malnutrition can develop from not eating enough protein over a long period of time. The body can even become unable to process protein, which leads to serious illness and even death.
Professionals should be involved during any process of rapid weight loss.
