Introduction
Obesity and being overweight, even if not obese, is a major problem for so many people today. Part of the blame can go to the availability of junk food. Junk food is quick and easy to eat and cheap for the most part. People live such busy lifestyles and junk food provides sustenance to conquer hunger, albeit not in a healthy way. Busy lifestyles does not necessarily mean people are physically active. The majority of overweight people lead sedentary lives even if they are busy. Most sit behind desks all day. We find we face a health crisis when so many become overweight.
Health Concerns of Being Overweight
Excessive weight will take its toll on the body sooner or later. Health concerns, which may stem from being overweight, are high blood pressure, high blood sugar, high cholesterol, bone, muscle, and joint issues. These concerns can lead to other more damaging health issues such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, arthritis, and more. Many of these health concerns can be treated or reversed by losing weight.
Weight loss programs come in many shapes and sizes. You have crash diets, and long term diets, and diets where you only eat a certain type of food, diets where you eat very little, and diets where you are so restricted failure is almost a sure thing. When a diet exists only for weight loss you can almost guarantee it will not work. Why? Because if you just diet long enough to lose the weight and then go back to your old eating habits, the weight will come back just as fast as you lost it.
Lifestyle Changes
A weight loss diet should not be called a weight loss diet. If you think of dieting in terms of doing it long enough to lose the weight you are not solving the problem. If you have a weight issue now it means that you must make a lifestyle change to correct it. Dieting is a good way to lose weight, but dieting is not a temporary fix. Dieting should be a permanent change. View your new diet as a lifestyle change. You need to determine to get on the diet and stay on the diet. This is the best way to lose the weight and maintain the weight loss.
Why Grain Free and Blood Type Diet?
Grain free dieting is a great way to lose weight. Grains are carbs and carbs turn to glucose in the blood, which ends up turning to fat. (Unless you exercise a lot and burn off the calories.) A grain free diet consists of most foods but avoids grains. People get their beneficial fiber through fresh fruits and vegetables instead. By avoiding grains weight loss is a given. A grain free diet is well balanced and satisfying. You never feel as if you are doing without.
The blood type diet plans receive a lot of controversy. Some believe the diets are not beneficial while others swear by it. The whole point of the blood type diet is to eat foods that agree with your particular blood type. The foods lists for the blood type diets consists of healthy nutritious foods such as fresh fruits, vegetables, lean meats, and even whole grains. By eating the foods for your blood type your body will behave better and you will be able to lose weight. Both diets are healthy and neither one include junk food.
Which diet should you try? Even though some of the blood type diet recipes include grains, some don't. You can mix and match and see which one makes you feel more satisfied. You have a good variety of recipes in this book enough to plan a menu at least a week or more in advance without repeating meals.
Tips to Make the Diet a Success
Making dieting change is tough if you have a bad habit of eating the wrong foods. And eating the wrong foods is an addictive habit. Food addictions are just as powerful as addictions to smoking and or drinking alcohol. While you can stop suddenly and jump right into the diets, you may experience the unpleasant side effects of food addiction withdrawal. Sugar is one of the largest enemies to your diet. If you enjoy your sugar then you are addicted. If you eat a sugared food at least once a day, you have an addiction. This highly addictive food will not allow you to let go of it easily. Caffeine is another that is power with addiction. You can experience headaches and moodiness with withdrawals, not to mention the horrible intense cravings for it. These unpleasant withdrawal side effects cause so many to fail with their dieting changes. Instead of taking the chance with failure, you should work on weaning during the first weeks of your new diet.
To wean slowly means you will take about three weeks to stop eating the junk food and replace the junk food with nutritious food. A great way to do this is through slow elimination. Spend about five days eating the junk food only two times a day. Then spend the next five days eating it once a day. After that, spend a week eating the junk food once every other day. Then put two days between, then three and finally you will reach a point where you are only eating the junk food once a week. You may decide you no longer want the junk food before you reach that point and that's okay. The whole point is to avoid the unpleasant withdrawal side effects.

You should always talk any diet changes over with your physician or health care provider. They can let you know if what you plan is good for you. All information in here is strictly just that, information. View it as information and seek counsel with your health care provider before making any health changes to your diet and lifestyle. As with any diet, it will only work if you get on it and stick with it.
Section 1: Blood Type Diet
How the Blood Type Affects Diet
The blood type diet has gained in popularity over the past two decades since Dr. Peter D'Adamo first came out with his book 4 Blood Types, 4 Diets, Eat Right 4 Your Type. While the existence for the need for such a diet remains controversial, you will find strong advocates for it along with their blood type theories. However, at this point and time, there has been no actual scientific or medical research in depth to prove or disprove the theories that a person should stick with a particular diet based solely on their blood type. You can find plenty of support in the theory, just run an internet search about this and see all the websites that stand behind the theory that each blood type needs a certain type of diet.
Since we are discussing the blood type diet, it helps to know the different blood types. We will touch on different types
