Metabolic Typing
There are so many fad diets out there I can't even keep up. I've tried a few myself, some have worked (to an extent) and some not at all. Ultimately we have to find what works best for our own bodies. Metabolic typing helps you become aware of your of how your body processes certain nutrients based on multiple factors. What works best for me, may not necessarily work well for you. Being in tune with your inner self and your body will help you achieve homeostasis (when everything is in balance).

Can Fad Diets Work?
Everybody who is trying to drop weight wants to do it as quickly as possible, and this is where fad diets and short term quick fixes come into play. Instead of sticking to a diet plan or changing their eating habits over the long term, many would rather attempt a hair-brained diet lacking in any real research.

Getting Down After Losing Pounds
In a previous volume of my weight loss journey, I spoke a little bit about the depression that can occur with losing a lot of weight quickly, especially with people who have had weight loss surgery. In that article, I said I would go into more detail, and that is because I feel depression is a much more serious thing to discuss. As someone who has dealt with severe depression for a good portion of their lives, I felt it important to go into my feelings on why depression can occur after weight loss surgery. I am not saying that this will happen to everyone. There are certainly a lot of people who get happier and happier as time goes on, but this is certainly something that can happen which is why I wanted to write about it.

My HIT Weight Loss
This photo is of me in July before diagnosed, September a week after being diagnosed and March before my holiday! One of my symptoms of HIT was unexplained weight issues. I would always be a stone heavier than friends who were the same dress size and height. Doctors would also predict my weight to be a stone lighter than I was. I was picked on at school for being the bigger one out of my friends. Tried diet after diet as the comments really effected me. Through every diet nothing really changed. I have always been active as I studied musical theatre and went to various dance classes growing up, so it wasn't due to lack of exercise. I ate a balanced diet. Didn't over eat. HIT can cause a lot of water retention and problems loosing weight. After a month and a half of a histamine-free diet, I had lost nearly 2 stone.
