Whoo Hoo!! That is a 7 pound loss from last week. I am beyond thrilled. To reach my goal of losing 44 pounds in four months I now have to lose 34 pounds in just over two months. Wow, did it really take me almost two months to lose 10 pounds? Oh well, now it’s time to get really focused. If I don’t ruin my diet every weekend like I was before then I should start to lose more every week. Wish me luck \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

The Baby Food Diet recommends eating baby food for snacks and as a replacement for some meals as a means to control portion size easily and lose weight.<\/p><\/div>\n
Back to today’s topic, “The Baby Food Diet”. When I was a child I loved baby food. I would beg my mother to buy me the jars of pureed fruit – those were my favorite. So when I was surfing around online the other night I was curious to see that there is actually a diet based on eating baby food, called the Baby Food Diet. This diet intrigued me and so I thought I would look into it a bit further.<\/p>\n
There was a day when your food was portioned out for you, and the aim was to grow and gain weight. That was years ago, however, and your days with baby food may seem long behind you. However, there is a diet out there that encourages you, as an adult, to go back to eating the offerings found in these tiny jars. The Baby Food diet is something that has been around for a while now, and many swear by it. If you want a new way to try to lose weight, see if this might be something for you. Just be sensible about it.<\/p>\n
This diet is much like it seems. The person who wants to try this diet would eat baby food for snacks each day to limit calories, and may even substitute some for a regular meal. It is not recommended that someone use baby food as their only food source, as that can lead to a severe calorie deficit. If that happens, the diet turns into a crash diet<\/a> that leaves the dieter weak and tired, and very likely to rebound and regain the weight once the diet is finished (read the article “Dangers of Yo-Yo Dieting<\/a>” for more information about this unhealthy pattern). Have a few healthy adult meals each day and save your baby food for perhaps breakfast and your snacks for best results.<\/p>\n If you find information on the actual baby food diet, you will not see many recommendations for adding exercise to your new eating plan. This is a problem, as exercise is essential for healthy and long lasting weight loss. Add whatever type of exercise that you like to your new eating program, but remember to take in enough calories to sustain your body through that workout.<\/p>\n This diet may not be for you if you do not like baby food. That may seem obvious, but you may not take that into consideration until after you have stocked your shelves with these foods. Remember that baby food is ground down so fine that it often is watery or mushy. There is rarely any texture unless you go with older age baby food. The taste can be bland, and not everyone will feel full after eating baby food. Try a jar or two before you decide this is what you want to do. By the way, in my experience fruit baby food is much tastier than the vegetable baby foods.<\/p>\n On the other hand, there are some benefits to the Baby Food diet. Manufacturers are careful to make sure baby food is healthy. That means no added sugars or preservatives are included. You may even want to try the organic version to be even healthier. Many are gluten free, and they are chock full of vitamins and minerals. Baby food is on the cheap side, and comes in many varieties. So if anything, baby food can be added to your diet as a snack food. At around 100-150 calories a jar, baby food makes a good, portion-controlled snack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Baby Food diet is something that has been around for a while now, and many swear by it.
