Diet blunders include concentrating on a diet to induce inch loss rather than weight loss, reduced or over-intake of calories, increased or inadequate exercise, bypassing weightlifting, low fat intake, and exaggerating the number of calories burnt during a workout. In addition, insufficient protein and fiber consumption, eating excess fat during a low carbohydrate diet, frequent food consumption, taking sugar-containing drinks, and eating processed foods are also the mistakes made by the people in the diet.
