Balanced diets over trends: Why quick fixes don’t last?
Introduction
Everywhere you look, there’s a new “miracle” diet promising fast results — keto, detox cleanses, intermittent fasting, the list goes on. Yes, they might help you drop a few kilos quickly but here’s the truth: quick fixes rarely last. The moment you return to your normal eating patterns, the weight, cravings, and frustration often come rushing back.
At NutriCrave by Sia, we believe balance always beats extremes.
About Me
Hi! I’m Sia
I create simple, delicious recipes that require 10 ingredients or less, one bowl, or 30 minutes or less to prepare.
The Problem with Bad Diets
- They restrict too much: Cutting out entire food groups may help short-term, but it’s not sustainable.
- They harm your relationship with food: You start labeling foods as “bad” or “guilty,” which creates stress instead of freedom.
- They ignore culture and lifestyle: No diet that asks you to give up biryani, pizza, or family meals will ever feel realistic.
The Power of Balance
- Portion control: You don’t need to stop eating your favorites — just learn the right amounts.
- Flexible eating: A slice of cake at a birthday or bubble tea on the weekend won’t ruin progress.
- Consistency over perfection: Progress is about what you do most of the time, not every single day.
- Half filled with colorful vegetables
- One-quarter with lean protein such as chicken, lentils, or fish
- One-quarter with whole grains or starchy carbs like rice, roti, or potatoes
- A drizzle of healthy fats from olive oil, nuts, or avocad
This isn’t about rules — it’s about freedom. A plate that makes you feel satisfied, nourished, and happy.
