Weight Gain - Vacation
If you're one of those people who packed on a few extra pounds of fat
during vacation and are now resolved to lose weight, you're not alone.
With almost two-thirds of Americans overweight (according to government
statistics), dieting is top of mind in 2003. And one of the latest trends
in dieting is the use of Web-based resources and tools for weight loss.
Weight Loss Survey
However, many people still put their faith in fad diets, weight loss pills,
diet shakes, etc., hoping for a fast and easy way to lose extra body weight.
But, based on a national weight loss survey conducted by the Calorie Control
Council (a non-profit trade association that has tracked dieting trends
for over 20 years), "successful weight losers" have shown that
the secret to losing weight is not found in a quick fix. Instead, weight
loss success is based on long-term changes in eating and exercise habits.
Weight Loss Success - Secrets
What are the secrets of people who lose weight successfully? According
to the national weight loss survey, the most popular methods of losing
and controlling weight are:

of dieters)
- Cutting down on foods high in fat or sugar (98 percent)
- Using reduced-fat or sugar-free foods and beverages (87 percent)
- Eating smaller portions of favorite foods (83 percent)
