Farmers have discovered if they restrict the amount of food the animal is allowed for a few days, then for a few days the animals are allowed to eat as before. Farmers have found these animals go to market heavier than those who have been fed constantly! This is what most people do, restrict their food for a while ('on a diet') then go back to their normal eating habits ('off the diet').
The other interesting thing about fattening animals fed on raw food, animals where leaner and slimmer. However, fed the same foods, the same amount of food but cooked the animals became fatter!! Why? Raw foods are bursting with enzymes and many nutrients are left intact, that encourage weight-loss and health-gain.
Another successful way you can store more body fat is by lowering your metabolic rate. How and when does this happen and how can you avoid this? During a restricted diet, metabolism can be reduced by as much as 40%. The metabolism is the process of using energy for a whole host of functions within the body.
Research shows that women dieters consume on average 410 fewer calories per day than non-dieting women, but burn fewer calories per day, than those who are non-dieters. That really doesn't seem fair. Each diet lowers the metabolic rate a little more than the previous diet and takes longer each time for the metabolic rate to recover. I typically hear many dieters say, this time my diet isn't working like it did the last few times. This is the point most people can relate to this as they have been on several diets and still need to diet.
An article written by Dr. Allen King called Obesity and Health, demonstrated how he put 500 of his patients on a 1000 calorie a day diet (many diets have people on this few calories). Six months later, the average patient lost 50lbs, success you would think or say. However, 3 years later these same patients have now gained an average of 60lbs - that is very depressing! For some it didn't take as long as 3 years. Now the dieters are 10lbs heavier than before they started the diet! This is an all too common a story.
Other research shows that a restricted diet seems to reduce the activity of the thyroid gland by about 28% in only 6 weeks. Similar reductions have been noted in animals on a restricted diet. It is not worth it. It is important to remember what ever process made you overweight and unhealthy in the first place will have the same affect the next time and the next time. So going back to your old ways (as most people do), you will put the weight back on? We are such creatures of habit, we need to break our old habits and form some new ones, but it takes a little time and much effort. Most diets are designed on the quick-fix, quick-loss even though the results are most often short lived.
The same is true of any Pain Relief Program, changes in diet and lifestyle reduces or even eliminates pain but if they go back to their old ways, and their old habits the pain will return, sooner or later, but it will.
