The Biggest Pitfall To The Hypothyroid Diet Or Any Diet

By Dr. Kevin Dobrzynski


A hypothyroid diet is not like any other kind you may find. If fact, there are several things about it that make it positively unique. Also, each person that assumes this kind of eating has unique needs to consider.

I have an acronym for the word diet, which is -- Deliberately, Identified, as an Eating, Trend. Diets are eating trends, plain and simple. In fact, if you listen carefully to someone who's dieting they will tell you they are 'going on' a diet. If you 'go on' a diet, you usually 'go off' it at some point. Hence, eating trend.

If you approach your hypothyroid diet as simply another trend, you are very likely to fail, much in the same way that all diets eventually fail.

If you have hypothyroidism you're not going to make a miraculous recovery overnight. This is something you will have to live with for a while. I'm not suggesting you can't cure yourself, but no diet will help you long-term if you 'go on' it. You can't assume you're going to follow this plan for 30 days and be done with it. That's not how it works. Your approach and mindset must be different.

Your mindset should be similar to this..."I need to make some permanent changes in my life if I'm going to overcome this thing that has disrupted my life."

Most people have heard the phrase, "diets must include lifestyle changes". This concept is even more important when it comes to hypothyroidism.

Sure you'll have to make some sacrifices, but you'll also learn some new and exciting ways to eat that will benefit your health. Think of it as an adventure; you're opening up your body and mind to something that can be life changing, if you accept it as part of your lifestyle.

Successful diets and mindset are intricately intertwined. Begin a new regime with the proper mindset and half the work is already done. If you have unrealistic expectations like easy weight loss with no effort, you are doomed to fail.

If you're going to make some changes in the way you eat and live, you must first make some changes to how you think.

You may have thought about the lifestyle changes you need to make, but have you thought about the mindset change that you will need for long-term success?

Altering the way you eat will not be enough to cure hypothyroidism. Yet, you can make some lifestyle changes along with a good hypothyroid diet, and it can bring positive long term results.
