From the start, let me inform you that I am no specialist in this filed but what is presented here is an outcome of my trying to record some of my experiences and experimentations in this regard. I felt that I should pass on this knowledge that I have gained through my own personal experience. “To diet or not to diet?”, is a dilemma faced by many health freaks. Dieting is often misinterpreted as cutting down on your food. But in reality it isn’t so! Let me explain what I just said in the form of a dialogue between two friends: A: I am gaining a lot of weight. I need to do something. Any ideas/tips? B: I have seen your eating habits. I suggest you stop eating rice and cut down on your rotis. A: I tend to have heavy meals at night. B: In that case I suggest that you skip breakfast. A: Anything else you think I should do? B: Well just try this out for a month and see the difference. A: Thanks buddy! In the above dialogue ‘B’ pretends to be a dietician just because his friend asks him for advice. All of us like to give advice, don’t we? ‘A’ should not follow what his friend advised him to do – he should use his own mind and visit a dietician or a nutritionist. Dieting is not just about cutting your food – it is all about eating the right proportion of food combined with regular exercise. So what exactly is dieting?
Dieting is healthy intake of food as per your weight combined with a regular exercise. The basic aim is to reduce your weight and maintain it. There is this funda about your BMI (body-mass-index) – I won’t get into this funda because I have no knowledge on that. How does one diet effectively? Following are some basic Dos and Don’ts on dieting. Don’ts 1) Never skip your breakfast even though you have had a heavy meal the previous night. 2) Never eat more than your capacity. 3) Avoid fattening food like mayonnaise, cheese, deep fried stuff and red meat if possible. 4) Avoid over-eating or under-eating. Do’s: 1) Exercise regularly – at least thrice a week. If that is not possible then go for jogs or brisk walks. 2) Have fresh fruit juices everyday. 3) Maintain a balanced diet. The exact ratio for toning down your body is 30% exercise and 70% dieting. Again, by dieting I do not mean cutting down on your food but a proper and balanced diet. I wish to start dieting from today – what should I do? Welcome to the world of physical fitness and dieting – contact your nearest nutritionist or dietician and get the ball rolling.
