IF i am watching my weight and i am on a diet. would it's be a good idea to used a food scale?

Answer 1

Diets don't work. 98% of people gain it back. Good carbs like celery and carrots will never make you fat. Bad carbs like cake will, but you don't need to know the whole science of glycemic index and load. It is mostly NOT your fault, if you need to lose weight. The way we have been taught to eat is responsible for making obesity the number one health problem in the world (according to Atlantic Monthly magazine) replacing hunger and infectious disease. You need to re-learn how to eat so you can become thin. Not a diet, but diet lifestyle.

Find out about fastest way to lose weight, gradual ways to lose weight, most effective exercise, good and bad carbs and anti-water. Lose bodyfat and retained water which also makes you a lot fatter (bloated). Most important-- make sure to read the last "fat loss tip", first before anything else, to see the number one food that causes Americans to be fat.

Answer 2

NO NO NO AND NO!!! You need to permanently change the way you eat. Using a food scale is obsessive and will just make the move to a healthy lifestyle extremely difficult. Just eat slowly, drink a lot of water, dont eat as much, and excersize.

Answer 3

Increase your activity level, reduce your net carbs and calorie intake, reduce caffene and refined sugar goods and increase water intake.

= lifestyle change and increased fitness level

Best of luck!

Answer 4

Yes as you can measure more precisely how many calories you are consuming.

Answer 5
