Many people have long held the mistaken belief that everybody has a particular fat point where their body realizes that this is the level of fat that is normal to that particular person.
This is not true and we all develop our own fat point based on our lifestyles.
While there are various different body types that are determined by our genes the percentage of fat that we carry around in our body is not due to the genes that we have inherited. It is due to the food that we have been eating from the beginning of our life to the stage where we are at presently.
If you have been over eating for a long period of time and you have remained at a specific fat percentage for quite some time then that becomes your new fat point. And that can change up or down according to the lifestyle that you choose to lead.
If you have remained at a particular fat point for a year or two then your body will develop all the necessary requirements in the form of capillaries, connective tissues, hormonal levels and so on to support that point.
You have determined what that point is and your body will now try to maintain the new level.
Your body will constantly monitor that new fat point by all the messages that are sent to the brain. If you are to go on a crash diet your body will react to the fact that it sees an attack on that fat point and will do all it can to maintain what it believes is the correct balance. The maintenance can be in the form of a reduction in muscle tissue to save fat.
Unfortunately for many people they don't like to accept the fact that it is not their genes or anything else that has resulted in their fat point being too high.

Everything In Moderation
How many times have you heard that statement? The best results are always when anything is done in moderation. You gain body fat because you weren't eating or drinking in moderation so in order to reverse that situation you also need to plan your rapid weight loss programs so that eating or exercising that is involved with that program is also done in moderation.
Excessive exercising for somebody who hasn't done much in the past can result in injury and that injury can make you less mobile and increase the opportunity to gain body fat.
Sudden changes in diet will send the body into reactionary mode storing fat. Gradual changes to your diet on the other hand done in moderation will not send signals to the body that is a starving and in fact you won't feel as though you are starving either if you do it in moderation.
Making moderate changes to your food and exercise won't infringe on your lifestyle anywhere near as much and that will in effect make it a lot easier for you to maintain the changes for a lot longer until they become second nature.
This is when you will get to the stage where you can gradually keep reducing the body fat and become healthier and healthier and more energetic as time goes on.
Even your intake or water has to be in moderation because drinking excessive water can flush out important nutrients from your system doing more harm than good.
You are better drinking a glass of water here and there throughout the day rather than trying to drink gallons of water in the hope that it will help you to lose faster.
Even good foods need to be eaten in moderation as excessive quantities of these foods can still cause the body to store them as fat.
It's a simple rule to follow really; if you are eating drinking or exercising too much or too little you are unlikely to get optimum results.

What You Can Expect
If you've been on any diets or rapid weight loss programs in the past then consider the results that you got from them because that is what you can expect if you go on the same diet again.
You need to look not only at the diet itself, the time that you were on it and whether you lost or not, but also the period after you stopped dieting and consider how fast you put the back on because very often that gain after dieting was a result of the diet itself.
If you are considering another attempt at that diet where you lost a lot of quite rapidly, it will be worthwhile to look a little further and see what the final outcome was over the medium to long term as that might paint a different picture and change your opinion on the effectiveness of the diet.
It might be time for you to consider an alternative way of rapid weight loss or to be more precise losing fat because that is the most important thing that you should be looking at.
Consider using a rapid weight loss program that reduces the fat gradually and is easy to maintain while you go about your normal day-to-day life. You might think that it will take longer to lose the but what you really should be focusing on is getting to an optimum body shape and staying there for the rest of your life.
It is not much use to you to lose for a few months and put it on for the next few months and then repeat the cycle over and over again.
This is all that you can expect to get if that's all that you got in the past and in fact it only becomes more difficult to lose and easier to put it back on so keep that thought in your mind before you embark on another -loss program.

Natural Rapid Weight Loss Products
Many people assume that because a product is natural is a lot healthier for the body but this is not always the case as even natural ingredients, and particularly those that they put in rapid weight loss supplements can cause other problems detrimental to your health.
Many natural rapid weight loss products also have such a minimal amount of substances in them that are beneficial to rapid weight loss that the chances of them benefiting your -loss program will be negligible.
That's not to say that some natural rapid weight loss products aren't good but you need to be aware that many of them are just getting promoted as with any other rapid weight loss and dietary supplement purely as a source of income for the people selling.
The FDA has in fact banned the use of many natural products that were used in rapid weight loss supplements over the years because they are proven to cause anything from mild to severe reactions in some people.
A lot of these products only act as diuretics which cause a temporary loss of water giving people the false impression that they are losing rapidly.
You will in fact have a lot more chance of losing by an increasing the quantity of water that you drink and remaining hydrated all the time.
The best natural rapid weight loss products are the good healthy foods that you should be eating every day in the form of fresh fruit and vegetables that will assure you have all the necessary vitamins and minerals that your body needs to function properly.
If you have any health problems such as high blood pressure or heart problems then you will need professional advice even when taking natural rapid weight loss products to ensure your safety. Some natural ingredients can increase blood pressure and if you already have high blood pressure the results could be fatal.

Retaining Your Muscle Mass
Retaining your muscle mass while on a rapid weight loss program is one of the most important aspects that you need to concentrate on as this will help you to keep your fat percentage down long-term.
On the ultra low calorie diets the body begins to cannibalize its own muscle tissue as its defense mechanisms come into play.
An example of this is shown with some of these apparently slim fashion models who have quite high levels of body fat in proportion to their overall size.
The reason for this is the fact that they haven't done any form of exercise or resistance training to maintain any reasonable level of muscle mass and this is only made worse by the fact that they are often eating a very low quality diet and nutrition is lacking.
It is not uncommon to see skinny models with cellulite and that is a sure sign that they are retaining fat in a higher percentage than they should be.
They would find that if they added a little bit of resistance training or even some form of decent exercise to their daily routine they would be able to still retain a slim figure but the body fat percentage would be considerably lower and they would look a lot more toned and healthy.
And healthy is what you should be aiming for when you go on a -loss program and not simply losing as actually improving your overall health and well-being will help you to live a better lifestyle for a lot longer.
Increasing your muscle mass also improves your metabolic rate whereas body fat has a very low level of metabolic activity. Nutritionists regard muscle as the furnace that burns in the body and this is what you should be aiming for.
If more rapid weight loss programs focused on retaining muscle mass people would be unlikely to put the back on rapidly once they finished the program.
