Many people always feel that losing weight is difficult and it is easy to rebound. What is the reason? In fact, the reason is very simple. Obesity is a result of your bad living habits. If you want to lose weight, you need to change your daily living habits as a whole. As the saying goes, it is easy to change the nature of your nature, and it is not easy to change your habits you are accustomed to. Therefore, it is always difficult to succeed in losing weight. Even if you achieve certain weight loss results, you cannot maintain it for a long time. Within 2 years, most people's weight rebounds, and it is almost rare to maintain the weight loss results for 5 years.
Weight loss is not a temporary intervention method. For example, eating less and exercising more to help you get rid of the problem of obesity. Then you can return to your original state of eating and drinking, overall immobile life, and continue to maintain a slim figure after losing weight. This is impossible. Once you get rid of the weight loss lifestyle that makes you lose weight, your weight will slowly return to the obese weight under the lifestyle that makes you gain weight.
Maybe for many people, if you want to maintain a healthy weight, you must keep a healthy living habit, which includes diet, exercise, sleep, stress and other aspects.
The following weight loss principles may help you have a clear understanding of weight loss:
First of all, controlling diet is not diet, but your lifestyle
When losing weight, we often say that three points to practice and seven points to eat. This shows the importance of diet to lose weight. The reason is very simple. If you eat easily for 5 minutes, you may sweat for half an hour and cannot consume these calories. This is obviously not an equivalent weight loss effort. If you accidentally eat a few more bites in your daily life, it may ruin your sweating fatigue exercise for several weeks. This is the biggest factor in your failure to lose weight. Therefore, if you want to lose weight successfully, you must first control your mouth. If you eat as much as you want, no matter how hard you try to lose weight, it will be useless. You need to treat diet control and eating healthy ingredients as things you must persist in doing throughout your life, not only for weight loss, but also for physical health. Only when you are healthy can you have a healthy weight. At the same time, only when your weight is normal can your body be healthy. This is a complementary issue.
Secondly, comprehensive and balanced and scientific exercise
Many people think of losing weight and running, while fitness coaches will tell you that if you want to lose weight, you have to train your muscles. Who is right? In fact, aerobic training and strength training are indispensable exercise methods for you. You must not ignore each other, but exercise balancedly. Any exercise can help you burn calories, but your health requires comprehensive and balanced training. The positive effects of cardiopulmonary aerobic training and muscle strength training on the body cannot be replaced by each other. Exercise is not just for weight loss, but for healthier body. This is the same as the diet mentioned above. Without a healthy body, there is no healthy weight. It is recommended to do strength training for 2-3 days a week, and then 3-5 aerobic exercises, consuming 250-400 calories each time. Persist in a long time and let yourself develop the habit of regular exercise, rather than just going out to exercise when you think about losing weight.
Third, calories are not equal
Our body is not a big container. If you eat two different types of foods with the same calories, the blood sugar reaction and fat storage effect produced in your body may be completely different. Potato chips with the same calories are different from vegetables and protein . Eating them with the same calories makes your weight change differently. Those processed foods rich in saturated fat and refined carbohydrates will make you more likely to eat fat. Therefore, in our weight loss diet strategy, it is not enough to control the intake of dietary calories. You also need to eat healthy ingredients. Even if you control your diet, if you still eat unhealthy junk foods, your weight loss efforts will not be successful.
Fourth, reduce stress, maintain adequate sleep
Stress is a shadow that cannot be escaped in modern life. Staying up late is also unforgettable, but they make your weight continue to soar. When your body is exhausted and Alexander, your body will secrete the stress hormone cortisol , Cortisol is also a hormone that helps your body accumulate fat. Staying up late at night will also make you feel hungry late at night. The supper you eat at this time is the extra calories you eat, and they will become fat accumulated on your body. Deficiency of sleep will also inhibit leptin. Research data shows that people who only sleep for 5 hours a night for two consecutive weeks will lose 55% less fat than those who sleep for 8 hours, and they will also feel hungry. This is not good news for you who lose weight.
