The Benefits of a Simple Diet to Lose Weight
There is a lot of evidence to suggest that keeping a weight loss diet as simple as possible can have many benefits to the dieter.
This makes a lot of common sense, as people tend to be more happy when doing something that they don't find difficult, which makes a simple kind of diet much more easy to stick with for that reason.
Let's take a closer look at why simple diets are often better and more successful that their more complicated counterparts.
Calories Consumed
The first thing that will be blatantly obvious to anyone who has already tried the kind of program where you have to follow complex diet sheets and make a daily note of all the calories you have consumed right down to the last crumb, is that by doing away with all that hassle seriously cuts down the amount of time you will have to spend on your eating regime each day.
That is time which can be better spent doing things you enjoy!
Very few people actually want to spend a chunk of their free time on repetitive tasks that in the end have little value if the scales don't tell a happy story at the end of week weigh-in. By keeping the diet simple and doing away with all that encumbrance can actually do more for your self esteem and boost your self confidence than being restricted to having to write all that stuff down every day.
You can get on with actually eating healthily and not being so obsessed with accounting for every darn calorie that passes your lips!
Find Your Right Food Plan
There are several very potent and also very simple diet programs available to help you lose weight without all the form fulling and hassle, such as Nutrisystem, Jenny Craig, BistroMD and the like that take all the hard work out of dieting and make it easy for the dieter to simply eat and lose weight.
After all, that is just about all the time many folks have for devoting to a diet in any case. Might as well make that time count for as much as possible by maximizing what you do with it. If diet meal delivery systems don't appeal to you, the obvious alternative is to ensure you eat healthily including meals that you prepare yourself from only fresh ingredients and avoid buying anything that comes in a packet (with all the associated additives, hidden sugars and sodium).
Then make sure you get plenty of daily exercise while drinking lots of plain water to boost your metabolism and get your muscles doing the work of burning that excess fat.
Summing Up
This is a far better way to lose weight in any case, as it also tones up the body and gives you a great looking, slim figure while you are eating right to improve your overall health.
It is totally worth it if you have the time and then you don't even have to sweat about how many calories you are eating because your body is burning them faster than you can consume them naturally!

I agree there is no point making weight loss complicated. Just eat a little less and exercise a little more. Cut out foods that are high in fat and sugar. You can try working out with weights to help you but a good food and exercise are still important.
