Diet Myths — Get the facts, or your diet may fail!
Dieting is hard work, and there are plenty of "helpful" diet tricks that can make weight loss even harder.
Carbs(含碳水化合物的食物) are bad for you. Carbohydrates are actually an important source of energy. There are good carbs and bad carbs. Some foods, like white bread or white rice, are example of bad carbs. Good carbs include whole wheat bread and brown rice. They're rich in fiber and really good for you!
On the contrary, studies show that people who eat breakfast will eat fewer calories throughout the day. And if you know you're going to be eating a big meal later, don't starve yourself in order to save you calories. You'll just eat more during the meal because you're so hungry! Instead, eat smaller meals a couple days before and after, and exercise more.
You can control where your body loses weight. Bad news – if you want a flatter stomach, just exercising your stomach won't work. Cardio(有氧运动) exercises will help burn fat, while weight training helps build muscles. Your "trouble areas" might not be the first to slim down, but keep exercising!
Your weight depends on your genes. While a "fat gene" does exist, its influence on your size is small. Smart eating and exercise have a much greater effect than your genes. Only 25 percent of your weight is controlled by genes – the rest is up to you.
Say "no" to junk food. Many people think that the key to losing weight is cutting out all bad foods. To lose weight and keep it off, eat great 80 percent of the time, but allow yourself in a treat or two the other 20 percent.
A. You can't target where you lose weight.
B. But the more strict your diet is, the more likely you are to break it – and in a big way.
C. Here are some common myths about losing weight and the truth behind them.
D. Skipping meals helps you lose more weight.
E. If you and your family have problems with obesity, you're not sure to be fat.
F. Don't miss meals but exercise.
G. Instead of choosing a difficult diet, find one you can manage and stick to it every day.
