Hi Rosemary,

The first step to losing weight is to pick a practical diet plan that not only helps you lose weight but keep it off. Once you choose your diet plan, the rest is up to you. Make a promise to yourself not to take one bite of "forbidden food". This will be different from one diet to another. For example, if you're counting calories on a 1200 calorie diet, you promise yourself not one bite beyond 1200 calories. Adding exercise to your daily routine will help you lose faster too.

Hi Amgarcia,

According to experts, gradual weight reduction can help reverse fatty liver. However, "gradual" and "weight loss" are not what most people want to hear even though it's proven the healthiest way and offers the best long-term results. By gradual I mean 5-10 per cent loss of your initial body weight over a 6-month period.

Fatty liver causes your liver to burn fat less efficiently so although it's not easy, it's important to cut fatty foods from your diet. However, it's also important to remember that there are two main types of fats: saturated and unsaturated. Not all fat is bad. The easiest way to remember which is which, is that saturated fat unusually becomes solid at room temperature while unsaturated fats tends to be liquid. Carry this thinking over to your body. Think about what that thick, solidifying grease does to your arteries and liver. Most saturated fat is found in animal products. Little things you can do to help reduce the amount of saturated fat in your diet are things like:

  • Remove skin from chicken skin
  • Cut visible fat from any meat
  • Avoid using lard or bacon in your cooking
  • Bake instead of fry
  • Avoid butter, cream or gravies
  • Read food labels and avoid products with more than 10 percent daily value of saturated fat.

One last thing worth mentioning is trans fats, because these should also be avoided. Trans fats are created when healthy oil is hydrogenated to make it solid at room temperature. For instance when corn oil becomes margarine. Trans fats also clog your body like saturated fats so watch for this information also as you read nutritional labels.
