For every diet program, there will always be risks and disadvantages. You can’t really be completely satisfied especially during the beginning of every program because starting a diet means you need to relinquish several of your comfort zones when it comes to food and exercise. You also need to get used to a new routine and some restrictions imposed on you by your diet program of your own choosing. So, let’s take a look at the new Food Lovers Diet and see what disadvantages there are, if there are any.

One of the main attractions for those who follow and who are interested to follow the Food Lovers Diet is that you can eat anything you want with this program. That in itself is both an advantage and a disadvantage. It’s an advantage because it doesn’t curtail your choices for food which is the number one reason why ultimately several diet programs fail. You become depressed and angry when you can’t eat what you want or when you feel like you’re being deprived or starved for food that you love. It becomes a disadvantage when you can’t learn to control what you eat despite having the guide and the information presented to you.

Sometimes, the problem with people is that they immediately expect results to happen as soon as they open the material and start the program. Sometimes, they don’t even take the time to read through the informational package which tells them how to proceed with the Food Lovers plan. If they believe that you can really eat anything and start to do so without any moderation and without any guide, you can’t expect to lose weight. That’s why some of them think that the program is a scam or a fake. They didn’t take into consideration the planning and preparation needed to get you on your way with deciding on your new meal plans.

Another disadvantage that can also result from not reading the material is that people will not understand how to apportion their meals. They may fall under the misconception that when they’re encouraged to eat more times in a day, they can eat huge servings of their favorite food every time. What the Food Lovers Diet program encourages is eating in smaller portions with the right combination of nutrients to make a balanced meal.

It will take some time to get used to the kind of discipline the Food Lovers Diet program teaches especially when you’re used to eating three huge meals in a day. Learning to eat smaller portions even with your favorite foods can make people impatient and cranky because they have to adjust and eve their stomachs have to get used to it. But in the long run, you should view it as a move to a healthier lifestyle in which you can eat what you want, just a taste really to satisfy your cravings, and still manage to lose weight and keep it off.

    For food lovers out there, it is advisable that you have to be watchful what kind of fruits you are eating. You may any foods you want but it has to be high in protein and fiber and less in fats. Eat a minimum of 5 kinds of fruits a day. Drink 8-12 glasses of water.
