Quick fix diets, are these the answer to our prayers or the diets that nightmares were created with. I believe they are the latter. You will loose weight if you only drink lemonade (the Beyonce diet) however this is not maintanable and will only make you feel rather ill, dizzy and tired. Lets face it if we were meant to live on lemonade or cabbage why have we got teeth.

Quick fix diets and our metabolic rate do not go hand in hand. As human beings we were created with survival in mind and if you suddenly decide to follow “Beyonces lemonade diet” your body will think “ah, starvation imminent lets preserve all the fat stores”. Then after, maybe, a week drinking only lemonade etc you go on a major food fest your body will need even less calories to keep going and you will gain more weight than when you started.

A point to remember before embarking on these diets is that it will be mainly water you are losing, not fat. If you are prone to bloating, I sure am, then this is what you will loose first. You may think you have lost some weight but once you eat other foods this will soon return. So disheartening.

Quick fix diets galore, where to start, what to choose. Well if it was me I would maybe pick one of them just for a few days to give you a bit of a boost. Its always nicer to feel a few pounds lighter, quickly.

This ensured that the quick fix diets hadnt slowed my metabolic rate down to much and my body then wasnt going to pile the pounds on when I started eating different foods. Pretty simple approach but it does work and its not a fad.
