Toxins are stored in your fats cells, so when you lose weight the toxins seep into your system from these cells. This is why you can feel tired and lethargic especially on low fat diets. To compensate - your body tries to hold onto these fat cells to store these toxins...and the cycle continues. To break this cycle and help you lose weight more efficiently, try to limit consumption from the list below:
- Sugar
- Processed foods (including diet varieties)
- Fizzy drinks (including diet varieties)
- Artificial sweeteners
- Alcohol
- Excess caffeine
I'm not saying to avoid this list completely, just to limit the amount you consume to ensure you feel better and aid your weight loss goals. Sam
