The diet plan from this daytime talk-show host boasts seven keys for weight-loss freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reduce your exposure to unhealthy foods and to cues that cause you to eat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This works because:<\/em><\/strong> You can\u2019t eat what isn\u2019t there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Use exercise poles on your walk to burn more calories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Why it\u2019s not so great:<\/em><\/strong> Unless you\u2019re cross-country skiing, skip the poles and mix up your routine at the gym instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By Dr. Oz and Dr. Roizen<\/p>\n\n\n\n Retrain your body during this two-week program, created by Mehmet Oz, M.D. and, his partner, Michael Roizen, M.D., that aims to make you healthier for life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pick a range for your ideal weight instead of fixating on a particular number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This works because:<\/em><\/strong> You\u2019ll feel guilt-free when faced with the small fluctuations that occur naturally day-to-day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Eat the exact same thing for lunch\u2014and breakfast too if you can stand it\u2014every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Why it\u2019s not so great:<\/em><\/strong> The lack of variety may bore you to the point of giving up on your diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By Cheryl Forberg, R.D., Melissa Roberson and Lisa Wheeler<\/p>\n\n\n\n Based on the hit reality show, this is a serious diet and exercise plan for only those serious about weight loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Try circuit training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This works because:<\/em><\/strong> The effective, total-body workouts will help you lose weight and inches, as well as boost your metabolism, strengthen your bones, and may even make you more resistant to stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Start your own competition \u00e0 la Biggest Loser, complete with group meetings and registration fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Why it\u2019s not so great:<\/em><\/strong> Without producers, camera crew and a six-figure salary, it\u2019s not worth the trouble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By Mireille Guiliano<\/p>\n\n\n\n A French-born, NYC exec considers the differences in American portion sizes (big and bigger) and eating techniques (fast and faster) to that of her native country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Add \u201cpetit\u201d and \u201cpeu\u201d to your French vocabulary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This works because:<\/em><\/strong> You can have a little of everything if you stick to small portions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Carry a sprig of lavender to smell as you pass the tempting aromas floating out of bakeries and restaurants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Why it\u2019s not so great:<\/em><\/strong> Even if this did keep your mouth from watering, it could also have you sneezing up a storm (and looking a little silly).<\/p>\n\n\n\n By Judith S. Beck, Ph.D.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dr. Beck\u2019s approach is to change the way you think about eating so you can keep up any diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Differentiate between cravings and hunger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This works because:<\/em><\/strong> If you can tell the difference between wanting to eat and needing to eat, you can cut out unnecessary calories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Just say, \u201cOh well.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Why it\u2019s not so great:<\/em><\/strong> If you\u2019re really dreading going to the gym, or just dying to have a few more fries, are you really going to be able to just say, \u201cOh well,\u201d and stick to the rules of your diet?<\/p>\n\n\n\n By Suzanne Somers<\/p>\n\n\n\n Somers doesn\u2019t shy away from fat and encourages low-carb, high-protein meals, while steering clear of all things sugary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Reward yourself with the treats you miss the most while dieting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This works because:<\/em><\/strong> If you long for white bread but couldn\u2019t care less about chocolate cake, enjoy a serving of bread before dinner but skip dessert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If a restaurant doesn\u2019t have whole-wheat pasta, bring your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Why it\u2019s not so great:<\/em><\/strong> Celebrities might be able to have chefs cook off the menu, but the rest of us shouldn\u2019t bank on getting the star treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By Brendan Brazier<\/p>\n\n\n\n Designed to reduce stress, this plan focuses on nutrient-packed whole foods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Eat less processed food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This works because:<\/em><\/strong> Sticking to whole, fiber-rich foods will help you lose weight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Eat raw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Why it\u2019s not so great:<\/em><\/strong> This diet can sometimes lead to deficiencies in powerful nutrients like calcium, iron and protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" <p>You want to lose serious weight, fast, but don’t have time to read every diet book out there. <a href="http:\/\/www.health.com" target="_blank">Health.com<\/a> can help!<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":47,"featured_media":7003,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_post_subtitle":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[251],"tags":[65,88,259],"class_list":["post-3863","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nutrition","tag-healthy-eating","tag-healthy-habits","tag-snacks"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goldsgym.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3863","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goldsgym.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goldsgym.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goldsgym.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/47"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goldsgym.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3863"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.goldsgym.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3863\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8701,"href":"https:\/\/www.goldsgym.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3863\/revisions\/8701"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goldsgym.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7003"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goldsgym.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3863"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goldsgym.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3863"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goldsgym.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3863"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Worst Tip:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
