The Every Other Day Diet

Why it's Different?

Now commonly referred to as the EODD or the QOD, this diet is different from many other diets in the market because it is realistic; it does not ignore your body's needs or try to starve you into losing weight. It fully acknowledges that your body has needs, and that different bodies have different needs.

 

That's why they never ask you to skip a meal; instead, you only need to eat less on alternate days. Eat more than usual today, and then tomorrow, eat less than usual. By the end of the week, because your body has not felt any denial of required calories, it has continued to function at par: it burns up extra calories when it feels like it hasn't had enough. Eventually, you'll stand on your bathroom scales and see a difference.

 

There are downsides to methods that re recommended by low-carb, low-fat diet or pills and supplements: as soon as you stop eating what your body is used to, it will read that you are trying to starve it. It's an organism and has to survive – it will start to demand for its usual intake. These demands are the cravings that you feel when you are on a diet. As soon as you give in to those demands, you body, because it has already deduced that you may be trying to starve it, will take in more than usual. That's how come you'll notice that after trying a weight loss program, you usually gain more weight afterwards – your body is getting onto the fact that sometimes, there are periods of denial and so better to stock up in advance.

 

The other downside is that restricting yourself of necessary calorific needs puts your mind at risk. Your brain is fed by your body – and it's through this that you're able to think clearly, be perky, happy and whatever other good feeling comes from your brain. When deprived, your brain suffers almost immediately; you'll feel depressed and irritable. You'll feel like you can't go on, lethargic and lack the will to do anything. Needless to say, the rest of your life will suffer too.

 

In comes the Every Other Day Diet. It does not allow for starvation. It works on the simple premise of no denial, just alternation. Don't deny your body its calorific needs; just vary your intake from day to day. This means that when you reduce your intake, your body interprets it as a delay in a meal and starts to work on reserves; reserves are the extra fat around your belly and all the other places in your body.

 

The program is very realistic too; it helps to understand that weight was not gained overnight and so don't expect to lose it overnight. It will take hard work and dedication. It also talks about commitment to losing weight – forget everything else that you have tried that hasn't worked and go at this with your whole heart; that means commitment. Weight loss has to begin in your mind before you get to achieve it and they help you along with that.

 

There are 3 levels of the program: one for starters, another for those who want to adopt it as a lifestyle and the last for those who like to go at things strong and hard. Purchases can be made using major credit cards.

 

The battle to lose weight is long and it's hard. It's probably the toughest battle that overweight people ever have to fight, but you never need give up. Look for every avenue to get where you want to go – there is always a way out.
