This is the time of year when we try to eat healthy. You may decide 2021 is the year to get in shape. We know that weight loss is eighty percent diet and twenty percent exercise. So we need to do more than just workout. We need to follow a healthy way of eating as well.
There are so many diets out there. How do you know what will work best for you? You will just have to look it over and decide if it will fit your lifestyle. Is it a diet that if you get invited out to eat you can still follow? Or will you just have to use a cheat day? Those are ok too. Don’t totally go all in without having a day or so to eat what you want. If you totally deprive yourself you may lose weight but you won’t be able to maintain it.
So what are some diets that you can try in the new year? There may be some diets you have never tried before or even heard of.
There is the Mediterranean Diet. It is pretty easy to follow and is probably the best for maintaining once you lose that weight. Plus I am all in for a diet that allows wine. You get to eat a lot of fish, fruits, veggies and nuts. Seems pretty good.
There is another diet called the Flexitarian Diet. Now on this one you will be eating mostly vegetables. You can eat some meat but mostly this is a vegetarian diet. So if you can do that then you may give it a try.
When you are looking at diets that are the easiest to stick to the Mediterranean Diet still finishes first. Weight Watchers is not a bad one either. It is pretty easy to maintain and keep up with.
I think I am still going to stick with my Intermittent fasting. That has been the most successful for me. I also don’t have a hard time eating in a specified time period. Usually I eat between the hours of 10 am and 6 pm. If I have plans to go out to eat I adjust my times accordingly. So if I have to wait a little later in the morning to start eating I am ok. I don’t want to miss out on time with friends.
So what diets have you tried that were successful and easy to maintain? Comment below.
