Why You Should Eat Lots! - Healthy Dieting 

Bril-YogaHealthy dieting as part of your diet and weight loss program is vital.  Probably the number one mistake most people still make when trying to develop a diet and weight loss program is that they try not to eat lots, but eat less thinking that they are bound to become slimmer if they do. After all, it stands to reason that if we are putting less food into our bodies then our bodies will have to use the fat already stored to convert into energy right? WRONG! If we reduce our food intake substantially then our body will think there is a shortage of food and go into 'saving' mode, ie it will supply the energy required by the body using the minimum calorific intake and adjust very quickly to giving 'service as usual' on a much reduced food intake.

So how can you hope to lose weight if you eat lots? The answer is that when the body knows that food is not in short supply it will process it at the normal rate and not slow down at times of - as the body sees it - crisis.
