Palelo, keto, carnivore, Atkins, DASH diet. What have I missed? All diets on the web hallucinate foods you’re not supposed to eat if you wish to become fractionally less fat. Fuggin hell, I can do that too!
So today’s post is taken from the files of “4 foods you need to stop eating if you want to lose weight and become immortal.” Here goes.
1. Foods you don’t like
Ha, you thought I’m gonna kick the list off with potatoes. Nah. It’s foods you don’t like. It’s unbelievable how often people stop honoring their personal preferences once they decide to shed some pounds.
If you’re about to shriek what if all that I like are burgers and donuts, I’m not suggesting that that’s what you should be inhaling with every meal. That’s silly.
What I’m saying is most of your food choices should be compatible with your food preferences — if you like potatoes, don’t stop eating them just because some low-carb zealot said something about insulin.
If most of your diet consists of foods a particular diet imposed on you but you don’t like them, how long do you think you’ll be able to stick to that diet before you throw in the towel? It’s a ticking time bomb.
