Why do I Over Eat - The hidden factors that Thwart Permanent Weight Loss.

What do these things all the following have in common?

High calorie, convenience foods and takeaways

Emotional Overeating

Insufficient exercise and stress?

The answer is that they are all symptoms of a modern lifestyle. It can be very difficult to not ever eat with the variety of foods available, the volume of foods, increased portion sizes, the convenience of takeaways, pre-processed and ready meals which we consume in vast quantities to ease our busy and stressful lives. Is it any wonder that the nation's waistline is increasing year on year? Unfortunately even those wanting to stick to a healthy Diet can come unstuck! The truth is that there is so much misinformation perpetrated by food manufacturers in order to get us to buy their products. Vague low fat or low salt claims that have no basis in reality and even if they did, low fat foods are not going to help you lose weight!

Is Food filling emotional voids in your life?

Takeaways and ready meals can seem to be a solution to our busy lives.

There is lot's of pressure and hype to eat healthily yet few of us actually know what healthy eating is.

Misinformation by food producers keeps us in the dark about what we are really eating.
.
As you can see above,there are many reasons that we as a nation are putting on weight. Let's look in a bit more detail at some of the reasons we over eat.If you want permanent weight loss then there are a few facts which can help you avoid overeating.

 

 

 

Why are we getting fatter?

There is much more choice when it comes to fattening snack foods than there has ever been.

The marketing machine behind the big businesses that promotes these products has been refined over many years so that it has now become very efficient at ensuring we buy.

Big business doesn't care about how healthy the food is or the nutritional benefit. Even if it is being marketed as having a health benefit. They simply want us to buy it.

Food Industry Myths - Low Fat Hype.
That sometimes means even apportioning health benefits to foods that aren't that genuine.

Not knowing which health claims are genuine and which are just hype can lead us to make bad food choices which will result in it being hard for us to lose weight and of course this has a knock on effect with permanent weight loss and weight control.So in our consumer led society, who is really leading who? Us the consumers or the big business selling us what they have convinced us we want?

 

Low Fat Foods, the Truth!

Perhaps you think that by buying low fat alternatives you are making a healthy choice?
A recent American study involved two groups of people both with free access to cookies. One group was given regular cookies the other were given low fat cookies. What happened? The people with the low fat cookies simply ate more of them. In fact they ate a whopping 40% more of the low fat version! As you can imagine if this is the norm, it will completely undo any reason for eating the low fat version in the first place. In fact it it worse than eating the normal cookies because of the highly refined carbohydrate and chemicals that pad the product out instead of fat make them more likely to be converted to fat by the body. There is no wonder that permanent weight loss and weight management is so elusive with these types of foods being pushed as healthy or diet options!

There are two explanations for the fact that the group given the low fat version of the cookies ate so much more. One is that because they knew they were low fat they gave themselves 'permission' to eat more. The other explanation is that fat in food actually helps us recognize we have eaten enough. Either or more probably both of these reasons would be responsible for these findings.

So what does this mean for us? Well why not enjoy the full fat cookie? It will probably taste better, quite possibly it is cheaper and you will feel satisfied with fewer.

And what do these results mean for the cookie manufacturer? It means bigger profits! The low fat version is most likely sold for more since it is more desirable because of all the hype around low fat foods, and we will consume more of that product! Every ones a winner! Except us that is because we are still piling on the pounds and spending more money helping to inflate shareholders wallets.

The truth is that most people do not need to reduce the amount of fat in their Diets. Unfortunately food producers have simply jumped on the bandwagon to provide us with an evermore bewildering choice of supposedly "healthier" low fat alternatives that as you can now see turn out not to be so healthy after all.
