How difficult it is sometimes to lose weight! In some cases, it seems that neither diets, nor fitness, nor even a great desire help. And the fact is that a person has developed metabolic adaptation and chronic stress, due to which the weight gradually increases, and it seems impossible to lose weight.
To avoid and get rid of this, you should not starve and do sports too often and for a long time. It is better to follow a few simple rules every day, and later the body will understand that the situation has changed, all vital processes are provided with nutrients, so you can lose weight.
So, let’s remember 10 simple, but very useful rules:
- Start every morning with a glass of water with lemon juice. Before each meal, you should also drink a glass of water, or even two, and during the day you should drink at least two liters of water. Please note that in addition to water, you can drink green tea, black tea, coffee, herbal teas, compotes, but it is better that the drinks are not sweet.
- If you are a sweet tooth and cannot give up your favorite treats, eat them less often and only until noon.
- Get into the habit of adding as many vegetables to the side dish as possible.
- Do not consume semi-finished products, it is better to prepare them yourself. Also try to eat as few simple carbohydrates as possible.
- Small meals are the best solution both for the figure and for health. It is more useful to eat small portions four or five times a day than to eat once or twice a day, but overeat.
- Do not forget that dinner should be 3-4 hours before bedtime, no later. The body must have time to digest food, and at night it must rest!
- Arrange a fasting day once a week, this will have a positive effect on your figure. On such days, you can eat apples, cottage cheese, yogurt, carrots, cabbage, peppers, cucumbers, and even chocolate. On fasting days, do not eat more than 1000-1500 kcal.
- Exercise every day, at least 15 minutes a day, but if you do it regularly, it will definitely lead to a positive result!
- Do not give up fats completely – a person needs fats for beautiful hair, skin and for normal lipid metabolism. But you should not consume products with trans fats or fried pork, but, for example, linseed or olive oil, also useful fat is found in nuts, egg yolk, fatty fish.
- Don’t forget to have breakfast. It is this meal that is the most important, after which all metabolic processes begin to function. During the day, you will eat much less if you do not forget to have breakfast.
To speed up weight loss and not lose motivation, take drugs that help decrease weight by preventing the absorption of dietary fat into the body, for example, Orligal or Vyfat. These drugs should be used along with a low-fat, low-calorie diet and a proper exercise program to help people lose weight. They work by blocking some enzymes in the body that break down fats in the diet. The undigested fat will be passed through the body in bowel movement.
