In an era of unending invasion of weight loss products, programs and diet plans, it is very difficult to sort through the huge list to know which ones are good and which are not. When it comes to healthy weight loss programs, the numbers start rapidly dwindling because there aren't that many in the market. And it shouldn't be surprising because most diet plans or weight-loss programs focus on tricks, gimmicks than effective strategies that are well grounded.
Here are 3 tips to find out healthy weight loss programs
1. Watch out for: Rapid, quick, instant weight loss promises because most often they don't work. Not that you cannot lose weight quickly but often these "fad diets" or "crash diets" will only be helpful in shedding those extra pounds in the short-term not in the long run.
2. The program should have a long term strategy: How frustrating would it be for you to lose pounds only for you to gain back all those lost pounds? So a good program will have all the resources and the support system to work on your long term goals- help you lose weight, maintain it once you lose it and also educate you on healthy lifestyle practices.
3. Cost: If you have a lot of money, I can straightaway recommend you to take up Very Low Calorie Diet (VLCD). VLCDs are medically supervised and you are bound to lose weight very quickly, but they can be quite expensive.
Needless to say the program should be affordable for you. Depending on your budget, it would be wise to pick a plan that is both reasonable and flexible.
