Losing more fat is not just a simple slogan, it’s a long-term battle that tests perseverance. During weight loss, remember the following 5 “dos” and 6 “don’ts” to help you lose weight unconsciously.
First, let’s take a look at 5 points that should be “done”:
First, three meals should be timed. Don’t blindly diet, let alone starve for a full meal, but ensure that the three meals are regular and quantitative, so that the body can function more efficiently and reduce fat accumulation.
The second is to increase the intake of vegetables. Eating more than a pound of green vegetables every day can supplement dietary fiber, improve constipation, and fat is not easy to accumulate.
The third is to drink more water. Don’t wait until you’re thirsty to drink water, drinking water not only boosts metabolism, but also helps detoxify the body and reduce fat accumulation.
Fourth, ensure adequate sleep. Sleep is an important period for the body to recover, and lack of sleep will inhibit leptin, which in turn will increase cortisol levels, thereby affecting the body’s metabolism and repair functions.
Fifth, we must move. Exercise can strengthen the body, increase calories and vegetables, whether it is iron, jogging, swimming or cycling, choose the sports you are interested in, exercise for more than 30 minutes a day, can effectively burn fat.
Next, let’s take a look at the 6 points that should be “not done”:
One is to avoid snacks and late-night snacks. Foods such as barbecue, chocolate, spicy bars, and potato chips tend to be high in calories and low in nutrients, which can easily lead to fat accumulation.
The second is not to drink sugary drinks. In particular, drinks such as milk tea and cola will make you consume extra sugar, and excessive sugar intake will be converted into fat, which will affect the weight loss effect.
The third is not to be sedentary. Sitting for long periods of time can lead to a decrease in the body’s metabolism and increase the risk of fat accumulation. It is recommended to sit for 1 hour and get up and move for 10 minutes, and walk and move around to and from work to activate body muscles and improve activity metabolism.
Fourth, don’t over-diet. It is not advisable to starve and lose weight, and the daily caloric intake should be greater than the basal metabolic value and lower than the total metabolic value, and at the same time supplement high-quality protein to avoid muscle loss and not rebound after slimming.
Fifth, don’t take diet pills. Most diet pills are IQ taxes, most of them are laxative ingredients, which can’t help you break down body fat, and eating them will affect your health and can’t make you really lose weight.
Sixth, don’t measure your weight frequently. During weight loss, the weight is fluctuating, we can maintain the frequency of measuring once every 3 days, and at the same time pay attention to the body fat percentage, only when the body fat percentage drops, you can really lose weight.
Remember these 5 “do’s” and 6 “don’ts”, and you’ll be more likely to succeed on your weight loss path.
