It is not a diet that you are seeing....It is that a lot of us have discovered that the "cycle" of dieting...is only making things ultimately worse for out health.
I think what you are seeing is a genuine trend in the understanding of what we will be eating from now on...Because there is more " from now on"
to be had if we will change how we are eating...
Make sense?
So - the emphasis is to shift our diet ( not "DIET" in reference to a short period of time - rather a permanent choice of foods selected) to more protein, and less simple carbs and sugars. You will see various methods - by name - but this is the commonality.
Atkins started this trend years ago, and it has since been moderated, learned from, and morphed into various "named diets" and grown into a much more easy adapt to, and HEALTHIER way not get rid of the excess weight that is KILLING us too soon.
But the takeaway is simple: clearly - more protein - in balance and variety of protein - and less carbs will help your metabolism and weight will come off. It just works. And - their is significant evidence that it is a heart healthier approach as well. All very positive.
Lose the weight...lose the diabetes...gout...problems with joints....and live longer. That is the goal - but it is a
fixed goal for those I have spoken to ...in other words, not something to do to drop a few pounds - then bounce it back on plus more weight ( which is what happens on these crazy, crash weight loss plans.)
We can all still love our BBQ...and everything else...but now in ways - and portions that are better for us.
And isn't it great that we can all benefit by sharing these ideas? Helping someone else to be a better healthier version of themselves seems like a rewarding hobby to me
Especially when we ALL love our food so much.
