Mistakes can screw up your Diet!!

Are you always worried about your weight? Of course you are, dying to look slimmer, feel trimmer and have the celebrity figure. Who doesn't? Checking food calories, checking with a dietician, and maybe starving yourself to death, is not the right way to lose weight. So it's time to know more about dieting mistakes you should avoid to prevent weight gain:
Crash diets:

Being determined to lose 10 pounds in 2 weeks, will help you wear whatever dress you like and look slimmer, but it’ll turn you into a crash dieter. You slash your daily calories to fewer than 1,000 -- and sure enough, the pounds melt away. But do you know that when you eat so little calories, you train your metabolism to slow down as well?! More likely you will get fat again after crash diets.
Don't ever skip breakfast:
Skipping breakfast is a simple way to lose calories quickly, however, you’ll end up starving all day. Hence eating more food with more calories at lunch time. So start eating a healthy breakfast with low calories to boost up your metabolism in the morning; and have a light late lunch later.
Avoid mindless munching:
Eating a small slice of cake and tasting your friend's ice cream is just a mindless way of gaining more weight our of empty calories. So if you're serious about counting calories, you need a notebook to keep track of each bite or even keep a log on your cell phone.
Eat nuts:
Yes, it's a good way of losing weight. Nuts are a good source of protein and essential oils and it keeps your metabolism in high gear. Some researchers suggest that people who eat nuts stay slimmer than most that don't.
Low fat products are mythical:
According to some studies, low fat cakes and drinks, etc. are highly doubted to be low in sugar and other fats which can make you gain more weight... Plus if you eat a small slice of low fat cakes; you will end up eating the whole cake; not just a tiny slice. So forget about this myth and start eating a regular slice of cake when your sugar craving kicks in.
Watch out from fancy beverages:
When we count calories, we always forget about what we drink. This is one of the mistakes we fall in as fancy coffees and beverages contain more than 500 calories. So watch out what you drink and count down calories.
Water is a way for burning calories:
If you dehydrated yourself; your metabolism slow down and so you will lose weight slowly. Researches also prove that drinking at least 8 cups of water, burns more calories than those who drink less than 8.
Calcium and fats -don't Mix:
Some studies suggest that the more calcium you eat in your diet; the less fat you will gain. So count your calcium and you will get to know how much fat you will lose.
Stop weighing yourself:
Weighing yourself every day is a way to keep you frustrated and upset. Stepping on a scale everyday expecting that you lose weight just after a long day of dieting; is a sure- fire way to feel bad about yourself. So set up weekly goals not a daily one and judge by your old pair of jeans and not the numbers on the scale.
