Many weight loss diets ask us to cut something out from our daily eating. But trying NOT to eat something is rather like trying not to think about elephants. If you're asked not to think of a big pink elephant, what's the first thing you think of? It's the same with trying to give up a certain type of food. Try cutting chocolate and puddings out of your diet, or saying that you will "allow" yourself that chocolate as a "little treat" and what do you think of all day?
Whether you are fat or thin, diets make you feel hungry and crave the very foods that you are trying to stay away from. On top of this, insult seems to be added to injury, as everyone else seems to be able to eat the very foods you crave, whenever they want. This mixture of hunger and resentment is a recipe for dieting failure. IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT.
