Local fitness expert Marc Kent has information every dieter needs to know: Starvation Diets do not work, so don’t bother. Kent warns those wanting to lose weight fast and drastically reduce their calorie intake are asking for serious trouble.
“Diets just don’t work.” Kent was quoted as saying. “People must come to grips with the fact losing weight for the summer, and beyond, is going to take hard work, discipline, patience and a plan based on science and not guesswork.”
Kent is constantly educating the public about sound nutritional habits and exercise. “If it was easy, everyone would have six pack abs”, he explained. “As a fitness expert I seem to fight an uphill battle. Everyone wants the results, but few are willing to do the work.”
To help make losing weight the “right way” easier, Kent recommends the following four tips:
1) Create a realistic plan. The focus of which should be sound nutritional habits and regular exercise.
2) It’s crucial to weight loss success not to have “trigger” foods lying around the home – the temptation is often too great. Remove from the home any junk food that will lead to eating unnecessary calories.
3) Enlist the help of a friend or colleague and encourage one another. Be sure this weight loss “buddy” is as equally as determined as you.
4) Most importantly, be realistic. The excess pounds did not appear overnight. They don’t disappear over night either.
