No diet can be followed forever, nor can you receive the desired results from altering diet plans.

Beyond Diet is an exception! Why?

Because it is not a normal diet. In my own words I would describe it as a suggested meal plan that will guide you to choose healthier options to eat in the future!

Water Vs.Soft Drinks:

It takes no genius to know that water is better for you but compare the labels to see how much more sodium and carbs are included.

                 

Step 1 for incorporating this diet into your life is to replace all soft drinks with water.

Organic meat Vs. Fast Food:

People consume fast food because it is common and cheap. As you are eating that delicious cheeseburger from McDonalds are you thinking about how many calories, how much fat and sodium are included in your meal? It would be healthier to replace it with organic meat.

The calories are almost doubled; the saturated fat is doubled; the sodium in the cheeseburger is over 10x the amount of milligrams in the organic meat. It is evident now that fast food meats should be replaced by non- processed organic meat.

Step 2: Replace Processed food with organic food

Vegetables are already healthy!

One of the easiest ways to incorporate the gist of beyond diet into your lifestyle is to replace vegetables with organic vegetables. Yes vegetables are already healthier but they are still not as pure as organic vegetables. Organic vegetables add an extra flavor to any dish you prepare and if eaten alone, can cure any craving for sweets and sugar. You can find fresh organic vegetables at your local food market.

Price should never be an issue:

According to Stepfanie Romine, Daily Spark Ediotr and certified yoga teacher, for twenty dollars, you can buy " four whopper combo meals at burger king or a more healthy choice of one box of Meatless Burgers, one pound of 96% lean ground beef, sixteen ounces of cashews, one pound of strawberries, ten pounds of potatoes, one gallon of 100% orange juice, one pound of mixed vegetables, one bunch of broccoli, and one pound of dried pinto beans" (http://www.dailyspark.com/blog.asp?post=what_20_will_buy_at_the_drivethru_and_at_the_supermarket) 

Perfect For You?

Questions to ask yourself:

1.       Are you struggling to lose weight and keep it off?

2.       Curious about how to eat healthier?

3.       Are no other diet plans working out for you?

Then Beyond Diet is PERFECT for you!

Beyond Diet is life changing and unique in many ways. You learn to pay attention to how your body reacts after eating a meal, and can work as a guide to preparing new meals.

                

Keeping track of what you eat will motivate you to try new foods. The most important step in logging meals is tracking how your body reacts after eating, including snacks. By paying attention to your body’s reactions you learn to alter future meals to make you feel better. If you feel satisfied after a meal then the meal you ate was properly balanced and rich in nutrients but if you feel extremely full or sick afterwards then your serving size was too big. Keeping up with how you feel after meals motivates you to try new foods because you will want to see the effects of how foods you have never tried before will satisfy your cravings.

Rule of thumb: never doubt foods you have never tried; you never know if you will like it till you try it!

Everybody knows that you will never stick to a diet forever. With most other diets, once you stop so does the good effects. Beyond Diet will continue to help you in future weight loss because instead of telling you what to eat, it suggests meals and teaches you how to prepare your own and how to incorporate other foods.

Here are some success stories from Beyond Diet:

“I have been on this life style change for a few weeks and I think this is the real deal!!! Now my son started about a week ago and he thinks it is great. All you are doing is choosing healthy food instead of the garbage that we people have been lead to believe is good food. I feel a 100% better now”( http://www.beyonddiet.com/Members/Stories).

-Emma

“I began this journey on 23 July and while my weight loss is not spectacular (about 15 pounds, my loss in body fat went from 35 to 27. Those numbers move my risk assessment form poor to excellent. That is itself has been worth mountains. I have never tried a diet (and believe me, I’ve tried many) that even began to equal that amount of fat loss. I still have a ways to go in losing pounds, but the amount of fat loss is great encouragement.” (http://www.beyonddiet.com/Members/Stories)

Why Beyond Diet?

Beyond Diet is more than your average diet; in fact I would not consider it a diet at all. By definition, a diet means to restrict your eating habits. Beyond Diet differs because it convinces you to eat more food. Yet you are eating more food, you are covering the entire food pyramid instead of just focusing on one food group.

Take a vegetarian for example. Their idea of a diet is to cut out all of the protein and carbs received from eating meats and fish and replacing them with vegetables. It can be said that vegetables are the healthiest food but when consuming only vegetables you lack nutrients for example, protein from eating steak. Vegans are more extreme than vegetarians. They cut back on eating no meat or dairy products. This cuts out two major food groups. While these diets may benefit some dieters taste. A healthy all around diet for any body type would be the Beyond diet.

The difference between Beyond diet and any other diet is the amount of food you eat. They strive the importants of eating three meals a day covering at least three food groups. Also, they enforce serving sizes. A serving size for a 250 pound man differs from a 125 pound girl. If you do not eat enough you will still feel hungry but if you eat too much then you feel sick. After eating an adequate serving of one of Beyond Diet’s meals you should feel full and energized!

Lifestyle vs. Diet

Have you ever tried a diet and it worked at first and then you slowly creep back into your old habits? Imagine cutting out all fast food and sodas for 3 months and you lose fifteen pounds, your goal; so you stop. Gradually you start eating fast food and sodas again and over the next year you put on twenty pounds. After working hard for months to reach your goal weight loss you are now heavier than before you started your diet. In order for you weight to stay off, your diet has turn into a lifestyle change.

Beyond Diet lives up to its name implying that it is beyond any normal diet. To stay on a diet that would keep off weight you would have to become either a vegetarian or a vegan. While those diets may work as life styles for some Beyond Diet can be a life style for dieters who love eating all types of food.

This diet In particular revolves around eating mostly organic foods. The organic foods are proven to be healthier and you can find organic products in all food groups. After sticking through this diet for a month or two it becomes evident that making a lifestyle of strictly eating organic foods can be manageable until you think about the money. 

The question being asked is if the price of organic food is worth more than the doctor bills from being overweight or other health related issues due to the type of food you eat.

A Healthy Everyday Meal Plan

In order to stay strict to the Beyond Diet Plan it can become expensive due to the price difference between normal foods and organic foods. In reality, normal processed foods should cost more because more has to be done to the food to make it marketable compared to nothing that has to be done to marketable organic food. Why is processed food more common? Because of the taste? Today’s economy is backwards. Due to the allusion that processed and fast food is good and safely made, the demand for them is higher making the price cheaper. The better tasting, healthier organic food is the more expensive. There are ways to incorporate organic foods into your diet without breaking your bank.

Yes the weight loss difference would be bigger sticking straight to the diet plan but gradually working your way and changing the types of food you eat is a progressive start in the right direction. If buying all organic food is not an option buying partially organic is an option. Price of organic meat compared to most is almost double the price. You can still enjoy the taste of processed meat but adding a healthy spice or flavoring to it to make the meal more filling. Also you could stick to buying just organic vegetables and breads from a local farmers market. There you are given great deals for a wide variety of vegetables that can give your meal a different flavor. 
The number one rule in dieting with organic foods is to try a variety of different foods; not just the ones you know of. You never know what you may like until you try it.
