Host: What are some weight loss myths?

Tracee Yablon- Brenner: That low fat or a fat free means no calories, which is really not true. Sometimes, if it's low fat or fat free it tends to be more calories and you tend to eat more. So, you really need to look at the serving sizes because if it doesn't have the fat in it, it's not satisfying to you and you tend to eat more. So, that's not really the best option. That eating after 8 o clock causes weight gain, it really does not cause a weight gain. What you have to do is evaluate what you been eating during the day and merely think and see if you have hunger pains. If you are hungry, then you want to just have a snack, you want to have something light and just a little bit of it. Also, you don't want to eat while watching TV at night, because you tend to eat more than if you are were sitting in front of the TV and grazing. So, if you haven't really eaten much during the day, you can eat after 8 o clock, but you need to evaluate what you had during the day and then what your activity level is as well in order to lose weight.
