Finesse, skill and common-sense are some of the components needed to succeed at doing anything, going on a diet included.
Therefore to avoid the results of most diet trends and excessive calorie-counter dieting suffice it to say anyone seeking to lose weight via diet and exercise has to be well informed on the subject of effective diet techniques.
That said, I'd like to offer some effective diet techniques one can implement to make a weight loss regimen both successful and healthy.
Without wasting time and going straight to the point, to succeed with going on a diet to shed the pounds, reach and ideal weight AND improve your health, do the following at your discretion:
1. Go with the alkaline, mucus-free diet.
2. Use sweet fruits such as dates, bananas, and persimmons etc as the items for the occasional snacks.
3. Go easy on the use of salt and even then try to use uniodized sea-salt.
4. Eat as much as possible when you are truly hungry.
5. Try to give at least 2-3 hours after the last meal before going to bed.
6. Don't USE MICROWAVES!!!
7. Try to get adequate sleep, rest and exercise.
Other factors include knowing when to eat, the use of proper combinations when it comes to foods, knowing WHAT to eat in regards to cultivation, origin etc and of course your desire to better yourself in the first place.
Oh, one other oft-overlooked factor when it comes to dieting isDONT be so obsessed about the whole process in the whole place, it really can be so simple when you know just how to go about doing it the right and healthy way that is.
Well, heres to improved and improving health friends.

Critical portions of the brain in those who are obese don't really know they are overweight, researchers have reported in the March issue of the journal Cell Metabolism, published by Cell Press. These findings in obese mice show that a sensor in the brain that normally detects a critical fat hormone - causing a cascade of events that keeps energy balance in check - fails to engage. Meanwhile, the rest of the metabolic pathway remains ready to respond. [click link for full article]
