  • Hi, I am Jyothi Chabria. I would be talking about diet mistakes in this segment. The actual

  • mistake that people really make when they want to lose weight is that get on these crash

  • diets, these fad diets which don't work in the long run. Initially they might loose oodles

  • of weight but very soon they see it coming back in more. So, ideally I would definitely

  • not recommend anyone to go on these crash and fad diets. But lot of eating disorders

  • we have seen where people have this binging syndrome where they eat all that they want

  • at one go and then what they try to do is try to get it out of their system by inducing

  • vomiting. This is actually called bulimia, where they tend to eat a tub of ice cream

  • at one go and get it out of their system. That of course is associated with a psychological

  • problem, it is definitely an eating disorder. Another thing is anorexia, a condition where

  • people don't eat at all, because they feel the minute they eat anything at all, they

  • are going to gain weight. And they are so stringent about not gaining weight that they

  • are so scared to eat. But, that again is not a normal phenomenon and one should not indulge

  • into something like that. What's important to do is to eat small frequent meals through

  • the day, the right kind of food, the right combination of food compromising on no nutrients.

  • Its important to take all the nutrients in the right quotient coupled with exercise and

  • adequate sleep, I think would give them the results that they are looking for. What people

  • seldom come and ask us is they are so scared that once they come to us for weight loss,

  • we are never going to allow them to eat anything at all. what I personally believe is that

  • if a patient is starving on a diet, the diet is not correct for the patient or the person.

  • Now, its not that the person is never going to eat a probably a hamburger all his life,

  • of course he is going to eat it, but its just that when you get aware, more conscious of

  • what you are eating, you probably do not indulge in hamburger with french fries and mashed

  • potatoes and butter and noodles and all of that. You will just probably cut off half

  • of the hamburger or a smaller portion rather than having a large size portion of the same

  • or become indulgent in junk you. You become more conscious of what you eat.
