Unfortunately, young girls are growing up with distorted body images because of the media displaying “photoshopped” perfect images of people.  Also, Hollywood has made “being super skinny” the norm.

No matter how much weight you need to lose or how much you need to get rid of, don’t follow the way of Hollywood.  Instead, get back to the basics of sound nutrition, exercise (whether it is walking, swimming, bicycling, etc), strength training, and decreased caloric intake.

If you decide to go on a Lose weight fast diets to give yourself a quick jumpstart into losing weight, do so with caution.  Make sure you have spoken with your doctor and you are healthy.  Second, know going into that quick weight loss program that it is only a temporary, short term jump start program.  Do it for a few days and then start a healthy lifestyle program.

If your goal is to get really skinny, make sure you are doing it for the right reasons.  Not because you feel pressure to measure up to society or people around you.  Get real thin because you want to only carry the weight that God intended to be on your body, without that extra layer of fat hanging off your body.

If you are overweight and have been prescribed an antidepressant to provide you with the lift that you need to get your body and life back in order then you may be doing yourself more harm than good. The irony is that almost all antidepressants and anti-psychotic medications have weight gain as a side effect. The few antidepressants that do boast extreme weight loss as a side effect also usually have “or extreme weight gain” on the same label.

There are several ways that antidepressants can cause weight gain.

Antidepressants can slow down your metabolism and reducing your caloric intake or exercising will not jump-start it again.

Antidepressants can cause hormonal changes that increase the appetite.
Some antidepressants can sedate and individual and make them more sedentary; they are cheery but less motivated to do anything.

Antidepressants can cause mood swings that make it difficult for an individual to stick to a disciplined schedule.

Some antidepressants (especially Celexa and Amytripyline) seem to cause unexplained food cravings.
Side effects such as dizziness and low blood pressure can have a person living “minute too minute” and make it difficult to plan a disciplined exercise schedule.

Unexpected weight gain can increase the difficulties associated with psychiatric and seizure disorders by further aggravating mood instability and low self-esteem.

Perhaps the most commonly prescribed antidepressants in the world are the SSRIS – the Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs) This includes Celaxa, Prozac, Luvox, Paxil and Zoloft. Initially these drugs were marketed as weight loss aids until it was realized that after a week or so of initial weight loss that the body would start steadily gaining weight. The average weight gain that is expected after taking these drugs is fifteen to twenty pounds. Of them all, Paxil is thought to cause the most unexplained weight gain.

However the weight gain caused by SSRIs is peanuts considered to the pounds you can acquire by taking a tricyclic antidepressant. These include drugs such as Elavil, Asendin, Anofril, Petrofrane, Aventyl, Vivactil and Sinequan. If you take any of these drugs, which are prescribed for pain and sleep disorders as well as depression your physician will usually warn you that you can expect to gain at least twenty pounds during a course of treatment.

Another antidepressant that can cause weight gain but is not classified in either group is Mitrazapine. This drug has also been associated with significant weight gain. Wellbutrin, Nova Trazadone and Effexor which are not classified as SSRIs are among the antidepressants that can cause either extreme weight loss or weight gain. So if you take any of these you take your chances as to which direction your metabolism is going to swing – faster or slower.

To avoid the weight gain, lack of motivation to exercise and food cravings that both these types of antidepressants can cause your best course of action is to avoid taking them altogether. If this is not possible then you might find the entire weight loss process to be a very frustrating and uphill climb. However, never stop taking any medication that your health care practitioner has prescribed for you. If you feel that you are gaining too much

weight, discuss this with your doctor and he/she may find an alternative for you.

It is amusing how people can be so desperate in their drive to lose weight yet remain too lazy to do research on the effectiveness of programs regarding lose weight fast diets. It is true that there is a plethora of available weight loss programs in the market, but only few of them actually work and thus, are worth the money.

Sadly, though, many people apply the Sponge Bob approach to losing weight - that is, try anything nearby just so long as it is edible. In the case of lose weight fast diets, people tend to try the latest craze without actually doing the necessary research first. This is a classic example of blind experimentation that’s entirely dependent on luck. If they luck in on a diet and actually lose weight, then it’s all well and good for them. But luck is rare and most try these fad diets only to realize several months and wasted money later that the program they put themselves through yielded zero results. So, why leave things to chance?

The truth is, there is no one-size-fits-all weight loss program that is effective for everybody. Some weight loss programs may be very effective to some people but are slow and unresponsive in others. But then, it is another thing to show a leap of faith to weight programs that are built on wrong assumptions in the first place. This is why, if you want to lose weight, you should do your own research before plunging into a specific program.

The ‘Idiot Proof Diet’ is a program that seeks to cut the crap in the lose weight fast diets business. The revolutionizing factor of this diet is that it can make you lose as much as 9 pounds in as little as 11 days – and all that without skipping your regular meals! The program has an On-Line Diet Generator which will help you keep on-track with every food you eat. This generator automatically spits out a new menu within seconds, thus helping you reach your ideal weight by confusing your metabolism with foods that are not normally part of your eating patterns. The system does not evolve around the diet generator alone, however. Once you try it, you will see for yourself just how comprehensive a system it is. You can discover how to stop retaining water and how to drink alcohol while still burning fat.
