Diet without Diet

As everything is allowed as long as you eat hungry, the social and family life is not upset. Weight loss is progressive (sometimes chaotic) because you have to learn to eat in full awareness and not use food to respond to emotions, eliminate misconceptions and resist pressure from the entourage.

BASIC PRINCIPLE: WE EAT WHAT WE WANT IF WE ARE HUNGRY

Here, there are no lists of authorized or forbidden foods, nor calculations of calories, nor schedules to respect ...

One eats what one wants, on one condition: to act by hunger and with pleasure.

This approach is not new but brought up to date following the bad reputations of classic diets; it is based on listening to sensations.

Moreover, the priority is not weight loss, although it is generally found in overweight people, but the reconciliation with food and the improvement of psychological suffering related to weight. This "biopsychosensory" model is inspired by behavioral and cognitive therapies.

The principle, ultra-simple in theory, but which requires a long process in practice, can be summed up as: eating when one is hungry and resting one's cutlery as soon as satiety occurs.

Good news: the foods of other diets are all allowed! The essential: manage not to "use" the food systematically to calm emotions, replace the quantity by the pleasure of tasting.

IN PRACTICE

An exercise? Weigh yourself in the morning. Replace, then for four days, your breakfast for example by squares of chocolate. You eat it as long as you are hungry and stop when you are full. Iron on the scale after this period: despite tasting the food diet diets, your weight will not have increased by one gram. This makes you understand that chocolate does not make you fat. That there is not, on the one hand, the permitted food (vegetables, fish, fruit ...) and, on the other, the forbidden (jam, biscuits, brioche, pasta ...).

DISADVANTAGES OF THE METHOD

When one subscribes to drastic and / or folkloric diets, one loses the habit of listening to one's body, one's feelings of hunger and satiety. However, relearning is usually long and laborious. We must also eliminate a lot of misconceptions ("Yes, you can eat chocolate every day and lose weight"). Permanent introspection ("Am I really hungry or just craving this dessert?") And the enormous freedom of the fridge are disturbing. Finally, satiety is a concept much more complicated to find than that of hunger.

THE OPINION OF A FOLLOWER OF THIS "NON REGIME"

Catherine Grangeard, psychoanalyst, psychologist "In case of diet, we do not try to understand why we eat too much or badly. When the expected results are not at the rendezvous, we feel guilty. Indeed, we agreed to restrict ourselves for a certain time but without changing our habits, without respecting his hunger or his pleasure ... Being ready to take a more in-depth step, to look for the causes of obesity consists of a job multidisciplinary, requiring the simultaneous double approach of body and mind. So a nutritionist and a psychiatrist (psychologist or psychiatrist). "
