In 2012, there is a growing trend of becoming addicted to celebrity diets which simply do not work. You know the ones we are talking about, right? You've probably seen them in glossy gossip magazines each month and maybe even considered trying them from time to time.
Today, personal trainer Russ Howe walks you through why you should look to steer clear of these quick fix diets and shows why they don't actually yield successful results.
Usually people find they put weight straight back on and often end up heavier than when they started, despite trying their hardest just to get the physique of their favorite celeb.

Losing weight is not impossible. See the following points which cover why these plans don't work long term and why they should be avoided.
Firstly, the celeb featured in the plan usually has nothing to do with it. They've been picked as a flavor of the month face for the latest quick fix by a magazine. Secondly, the plans themselves often have a few serious errors...
* Chopping your carbs, protein or fats completely from your diet leaves you in a fat storage state, not a weight loss state.
* Cutting your daily calories so drastically you leave your body in starvation mode.
* Most plans require you to eat the same food over and over in a bid to be different from last month's routine. This also makes it tough to stick to as it's dull, meaning by next month you'll be off the rails...
This takes your weight loss nowhere fast. Usually people end up seeing a little weight loss for the endless hours of punishing their body and cutting out their favorite food, before sadly seeing the weight (and more) pile back on when they start eating regular food again.
The magazines can't be blamed for catering to their audience, however, and they realize that if they want to sell copies of their latest issue they need simply tick a few boxes and people will buy it...
* Gossip.
* How to burn off their belly fat as quickly and easily as possible.
* Celebrities not looking their best.
* Shoes.
The other growing trend in this particular market is to release a Christmas weight loss dvd showing what workout routine helped this particular famous person to drop some pounds during the summer months. Usually they will all suffer from 'different' syndrome, the need to incorporate a gimmick such as Zumba or Bocra just to stand out from the rest releasing the same dvd's at the same time. Take a close look at who releases these materials. Notice how every June they are shown in gossip mags looking out of shape, and every New Year they have a new Keep Fit workout dvd on sale? It isn't coincidence, and it shows their diet isn't effective long term at all.
The fact remains your body actually needs a good supply of protein, a good supply of carbohydrates and a good supply of fat in order to function properly. Learning how to control these three macro nutrients will help you to not only lose fat but also keep it off forever. No quick fixes, fad food diets or over complicated celebrity diet plans necessary.
