If I’m overweight and rarely hungry how can I diet to loose weight?
I normally eat maybe twice a day if I’m busy. I rarely eat sweets, I don’t like a lot of salt and I’m allergic to fresh fruits and vegetables. I have tried snacking but I have to force myself to eat snacks. I’ve tried yogurts but because they are so sweet it takes me days to finish one container. I’ve been to doctors and I don’t have diabetes or high blood pressure. I’ve been working out but I’m concerned about my diet.
Eating twice a day is horrible for your metabolism. You need to focus on a regular diet and eating structure. Eating plain yogurt can contain a high amount of sugar, so if you’re going to snack on it get a sugar free fat free version. Yoplait sells it I believe. Also, go and buy yourself a 2-liter water bottle and force yourself to chug it consistently throughout the day. This will hyper activate your metabolism and regulate your hunger. Yes! It will make you hungry again! Since you are not eating fresh fruits and veggies, I would suggest taking a basic multivitamin once a day and buying mix-in fiber for that 2 liters of water you should be drinking. Also, eat when you are hungry! Not when a certain time comes around such as breakfast, lunch, and dinner. You should be eating small, 400 calorie meals throughout the day. The average woman should be eating around 1,600 calories daily. Snack on nuts. Those are rich in fatty acids that are important to the function of your organs. Eat fish once a weeks and lean, trimmed meats other nights. Also, continue working out like you have been, and you should be on the fast track to an amazing metabolism and shedding pounds. In my links I have included a benefits of water page and your caloric intake calculator to see how many calories you should be consuming. Good luck and remain steadfast!

Diet For Diabetes
Most people will have come across a friend or relative that suffers from the condition known as diabetes, it is estimated that over 170 million people worldwide suffer from diabetes.
To understand the condition and the dietary requirements one needs to comprehend what the condition exactly is!
As the global numbers would suggest Diabetes is a common condition where by the glucose or sugar levels in the blood are abnormally high,
Blood sugar levels are normally controlled by a hormone called insulin which is produced by an organ called the pancreas.
Insulin regulates the body’s sugar or glucose intake which mostly deprives from the digestion of starchy foods such as bread and pasta and of course sweets or candy, and is used to fuel the body’s energy requirements, a diabetic person would find themselves in a position whereby the pancreas is not producing insulin in adequate supply to regulate the glucose intake thus not providing energy for the body to function in a normal manner.
Without sufficient insulin to breakdown and distribute the body’s glucose or sugar levels this it left in the blood stream at what can be exceptional levels.
Diabetes has been categorised in two forms,
Type 1 (Insulin Dependent)
Type 2 (Non Dependant)
Type 1,
Diabetes develops when the body stops producing insulin, this is because of a breakdown of the pancreas and is treated by the introduction of insulin from an external source usually in the form of an injection, Statistics show this condition will generally develop in mature persons before the age of 40.
Type 2,
This occurs when the body is still producing insulin which the quantity or quality may be lacking to keep the body at full health and functioning well, type 2 diabetes can be treated by dietary modification and is commonly found in persons with weight issues.
It is not uncommon for diabetes to go untreated and the basic symptoms may include , Increased Thirst , Extreme Tiredness , Weight Loss , Blurred Vision to name but a few.
