A New Diet Has Come



By Alex Baran, Project Weight Loss Staff Writer
August 07, 2009


The 90/10 diet doesn’t change your eating style as much as it changes your lifestyle. This new diet encourages home cooked meals in spite of processed foods. So far, doesn’t seem to have anything new, so what’s the catch?

 

 

This diet makes you change your lifestyle; it helps you remember you’re human and humans need and have the right to eat whatever they like for about 10% of the time. The 90/10 represents 90% healthy foods and 10% are whatever you would like to eat; you can consider 10% “fun food”, as Joy Bauer calls it. Joy Bauer wrote a book about this diet.

 

 

Following this diet you will use portions control, monitor calories, and plan the “fun food”. Your daily meals should have between 1,400 and 1,600 calories. This diet is special because while other diets forbid foods you like, this one allows you to eat them, but in controlled portions.

 

 

The only thing that might cause you problems is calorie counting for the “fun food”. It’s tempting and you might allow too many calories for this food, which leaves the healthy foods with too less calories. The solution is a menu planner and a calorie counter. Use them and you’ll be just fine.

 

 

According to Joy Bauer, the 90/10 diet works because it's realistic. Usually forbidden things are still being obtained by cheating. This brings guilt and coming back to unhealthy eating, people thinking they’re a lost cause. This concept is not true because if a diet works for “Jane” it doesn’t mean it works for “John” as well.

 

 

People need to find a weight loss plan that is good for them, even if that means starting several weight loss plans. Of course, a weight loss success comes with both diet and exercise.
