If you’d read that on your twitter or Instagram feed, you, like us, would have grinned and mentally given a thumbs up for the writer’s dry humour in getting the diet fixation and weight loss across.
Diet and weight loss is a global fixation. Everyone, seemingly, is on some diet or the other – if not on the popular ‘see-food’ (see food, eat it) diet. While some get on a specific diet for health reason or to complement a medical treatment, majority check out diet fads to cut down inches from the tummy or weight from the body. Of course, most diets have some impact or the other on the body – if one does follow it dedicatedly for a specific amount of time – but whether that impact lasts or not, is dependent on a variety of factors. One such is the crucial weigh loss plateau that does creep in when the body gets too comfortable with the diet one is on. What is also of importance in the diet zone is the yo-yo effect that is an inevitable part of most weight loss missions.
