Weight loss can be difficult. One of the reasons is that you are misguided by some popular beliefs that sound reasonable but can actually work against you. Don’t eat desserts (甜品) .

The truth is that there's room in your diet for any kind of food,especially the ones you love most—as long as you control the total amount of calories (卡路里) you take in. Often refusing to eat your favourite foods can lead to overeating.

Skipping meals makes you lose weight fast.

Actually,studies show that people who don't have breakfast are likely to be heavier than people who do it. Furthermore,skipping meals will make you want to eat more later. If you have diabetes (糖尿病) ,it's important to have the right amount of food throughout the day as it will help to control your blood-sugar level.

If you work out,you can eat whatever you want. That's stealing from Peter to pay Paul. You can't lose weight if you reduce calories in one way but increase them in another.

What you eat matters more than how much.

Both matter,but recent research finds that the number of calories in your food is more important than where they come from. For example,biscuits might seem healthier than doughnuts (甜甜圈) ,but a lot of biscuits will have more calories than a doughnut.

You should never eat fast food.

Never say never. Fast food can be worked into your meal plan if you choose well. Choose barbecued (烧烤 的) instead of fried foods,avoid high-fat fast food and share those French fries whenever you can.
