First, do not cut calories excessively.
Eating an ultra-low calorie diet does more harm than good. Our bodies have "programmed" calorie requirements to ensure our basic metabolism and daily weight. If you suddenly reduce 1000 calories from your diet, your basal metabolic rate, that is, the number of calories your body needs to maintain normal breathing, heartbeat and other basic physiological functions, will automatically decrease, because your body will mistakenly think that you are starving and need to be balanced at this moment. Not only can you not consume more calories, but it will affect the normal operation of your body function.
Second, choose "coarse" carbohydrates
Exquisite carbohydrate foods, such as white bread and potatoes, will produce a lot of insulin, promote fat storage, and may reduce metabolism. Experts suggest that we eat carbohydrate foods containing crude fiber: "It is very important to keep the intake of carbohydrate foods, and choose more vegetables, fruits and whole wheat foods, because these foods will produce relatively less insulin."
Third, insist on eating breakfast every day.
Breakfast is the most important meal in a day's metabolism and slimming plan. The survey shows that people who eat breakfast lose weight more easily than those who eat on an empty stomach. When we are asleep, the metabolic rate in the body decreases, and when we start eating again, the metabolic rate will increase with the recovery. Therefore, if you miss breakfast, your body will have to wait until lunch to start burning calories and speed up metabolism, which is undoubtedly detrimental to weight loss. Therefore, the smart way is to eat breakfast with 300 ~ 400 calories in the morning to restore the metabolic rate in advance.
Fourth, eat more protein.
The survey shows that taking enough protein can improve the metabolic rate and make us consume 150-200 calories every day. The main component of protein is amino acid. Compared with fat and carbohydrate, amino acid is difficult to digest and decompose in human body, so you need to consume more energy to digest and absorb it.
Of course, this does not mean that we should rely solely on the high protein diet, as long as it is enough to ensure that 10%-35% of the daily calories are from protein. That is to say, if you eat 1800 calories, 360-630 calories should be foods rich in protein, such as fish, chicken, low-fat cheese, yogurt and beans. In order to get enough protein, all kinds of nuts, a small can of tuna or a slice of low-fat cheese are good choices, whether it is a daily meal or a snack.
Five, change three meals a day to six meals a day.
Maybe you will wonder: if you want to lose weight, why do you keep eating? This does sound contradictory. But in fact, the metabolic rate of eating less and eating more meals 5-6 times a day is 24 to 7 compared with three big meals a day. And doing so can prevent you from overeating after a long period of hunger. The interval between meals should not exceed 4 hours. Make sure that all meals contain protein to improve the metabolic rate. For example, you can eat coarse fiber grains and fruits in the morning, and you can eat some snacks such as yogurt and fruits in the morning; Eat a plate of green vegetables for lunch. Saraga has a proper amount of chicken or fish. Add another snack, such as a banana and a piece of low-fat cheese, at 3-4 pm; Dinner should be as light and simple as possible, and eat less. You can consider vegetables mixed with120-180g of turkey, salmon or other types of lean meat to increase the protein content. If you sleep late, you can also arrange a midnight snack.
Since last night, I have been in the valley. (Today is the first day) Plan to spend seven days without eating any grain, vegetables, fruits, milk, juice, etc. Drink only boiled water, pure water or mineral water. This decision is a bit sudden, but it is also unexpected. In the evening, students with teachers are invited to dinner, Yunnan cuisine, and it is a very good high-end restaurant here in Chongqing. Before the meal, the teacher's students talked about her 2 1 day change. She was young, her skin was better, and her physical illness was gone. And several magical cases were proved, such as uremia patients recovered, kidney calculi patients actually discharged stones, and girls with both qi and blood losses turned rosy. My other senior sister Zhuo, after witnessing the magical experience of this senior sister, was very envious. Immediately decided to start from tonight. After she made this decision, she said slightly, let me follow her. In this way, I got on this road and decided to take this trip.
Watching them eat a big meal at dinner, Sister Zhuo and I can only stare at each other. In order to distract myself, the elder sister played with her mobile phone, while I kept drinking water. At this time, there is also a strange WeChat friend who said that he was lovelorn and was nearby, asking me to drink in the past. I don't know who she is, and I am in Chongqing, not in Beijing, where I am familiar, so I talked a few words and refused. After they had finished their meal, they saw that the dishes on the table were not consumed much, and then they remembered, why not let the lovelorn girl come over for dinner? In the meantime, another teacher's student came. She has gone through the valley 1 1 day, and her state is surprisingly good, without any fatigue and full of spirit. She talked about the benefits of breaking the valley, the changes in her body and the magical experience. I also shared several other magical cases in the process of breaking through the valley.
In fact, before that, in 2008, I had another experience of fasting for seven days in a row. In this process, eat a cucumber and an apple every day. Therefore, it is not a strict sense of the valley. On the seventh day, I remember clearly that I got on a bus and felt like I was about to fly. But because it was summer, the smell of people in the car was too strong, which directly smoked me to death and almost fell in the car. After getting off the bus, I chose to eat again that night. After this experience, I also chose a day of fasting at a certain stage to adjust my physical condition, which really achieved good results. I just didn't leave any words to share with you. This time, I decided to record the whole process and feelings and share them with the right person.
After returning home, the teacher taught two convincing movements. It is said that these two movements are very important in the process of breaking the valley. Because what is gathered in the food is the aura of heaven and earth, the brilliance of the sun and the moon. If you don't get this energy from food, you have to get it in another way. So these two movements are very important. At the same time, I charged the most taboo thing in the valley: emotion. Adjust your mood and keep yourself in a peaceful state. In addition to being convinced by the body, we must be convinced by the heart. Be angry with everyone and be grateful to everyone.
Physical feeling at night: bloating. Maybe it's because I ate too much before. In the past, I had to defecate every night. Last night, I just farted in the bathroom and discharged a little poop. After that, my physical condition was very relaxed. At night, I weighed myself almost 120 kg. I fell asleep around the early morning and slept very well all night. There is no dream. I didn't get up on time after I woke up at six in the morning. I came to bed for an hour, and during this time, I had a dream. Dreams are also better, not messy. The penis has a normal erection and a little desire, but it will pass after a while. Compared with before, it is much weaker.
I was rather thirsty in the morning and drank half a cup of water. I feel refreshed At the teacher's suggestion, I went out for a long walk and didn't feel anything special. Instead, I turned around this community, with mountains and water and a very good environment. Facing the sun all the way, training my speech. It feels really good. There is no hunger, and some are full of state.
Before noon, we will go to the nearby Huayan Temple. The teacher said, when breaking the valley, you should take the aura of heaven and earth where there is energy. The temperature in Chongqing today is about 30 degrees, not very hot, and the weather is moderate. But running up and down in the temple, taking a lot of photos, carrying a big bag, is really tired. But mentally, there is no feeling of fatigue. In the middle, I also exposed myself to the sun for nearly half an hour, followed the teacher to clean the temple and solemn the Buddhist temple. The teacher's words are worth sharing: pray for Buddha to become a sentient being, and the solemn Buddha will become a bodhisattva. Therefore, working for the Buddha and becoming a tool of the Buddha is naturally getting closer and closer to the Buddha.
When I was in Huayan Temple, Sister Zhuo was already tired and out of breath. My judgment is that she drinks too little water. When I went to the bathroom, I saw that my urine turned yellow, so I quickly drank water. When breaking through the valley, pay attention to the water must keep up. Otherwise, it is a kind of harm to yourself. After getting on the bus from Huayan Temple, head for Luohan Temple. On the way, I had a rest. I have never slept so beautifully in the car, and I arrived at my destination with a bang. I suddenly realized that time can travel through. I really feel that time exists relatively in our three-dimensional subspace. The teacher said: when we can enter the four-dimensional or five-dimensional space, time can be surpassed. And dreams are the lower points of this dimensional space.
In the Lohan Temple, I feel nothing, and I am still not tired. Keep it on the water. I'm a little sleepy on the way home. First look at the scenery outside the window. Chongqing is a wonderful city in my opinion. Bridges, ropeways, and city railways shuttle between houses. The house is by the river, in the mountains, at the top of the mountain and in the valley. It's really amazing. There are also roads, overpasses and fork roads. Anyway, I don't know. I really admire our driver. Have a safe trip and let me have a good sleep in the car. It's because I'm not asleep now and I'm still in spirit.
I am a little hungry at night. The reason is that when the teacher elder sister cooked for the teacher, the taste of the food stimulated my stomach. At that time, I was hungry and wanted to eat. There are longan, apples, peanuts and other foods on the table. However, I resisted the temptation. My mind tells me: I want to eat because my stomach wants to eat, not because I want to eat. My mind tells me: I am not hungry, I am full. My mind tells me that I can overcome my desire. So I survived.
After washing clothes, washing dishes, wiping the floor and doing manual work, I still don't feel tired. It still feels very good. Just thirsty, because when I came back, I didn't drink water in time. When sticking out your tongue, the tongue coating in the mirror turns yellow and your breath is serious. I don't feel like defecating at night. Later, after the water caught up, I urinated more. But it's all positive
I made a phone call and Amida told me to drink more water, go to bed early and get up early. And very supportive of me, saying it's good. Because many of the clothes she bought for me are almost out of wear. Because in the past year, I gained more than ten pounds. She also told not to eat too much at once at the resumption stage, otherwise the probability of weight and body shape rebound is very high. And it is harmful to the stomach. It really bothered her.
Get things done at work at night. Specifically, write a copy to the computer and make a plan. Now I've been blogging in front of the computer for almost an hour. During this period, my stomach growled a few times. At the same time, my stomach is churning in it to find something, and I am a little hungry. But in the past now. I'm going to bed, too. Because it's already one o'clock in the morning. Continue to share tomorrow, the road to the valley.
Cordyceps sinensis: It can be taken in all seasons.
The main function of Cordyceps sinensis is to enhance human immunity, replenish lung and kidney, benefit essence and qi, and it is mild in nature. Generally, it can be taken in all seasons, but with the warming of the weather, the dosage of healthy people can be slightly reduced.
Cordyceps sinensis boiling water has a high nutritional utilization rate. You can put 3~6 Cordyceps sinensis in the water, boil it with slow fire and drink it after boiling. Don't drink when the cordyceps water turns pale or even white. You can eat the cordyceps.
The key of Cordyceps sinensis is to prevent moth. When storing, it is best to separate them, seal them with plastic bags and put them in the refrigerator or freezer. As long as the age is not too long, it will generally not deteriorate.
Ejiao: It is not suitable for taking in spring.
A greasy tonic like Ejiao is not recommended to be taken in spring. Because the principle of spring tonic is based on flat tonic, avoid hot tonic. In spring, the human body has a weak temper, which means that the digestive ability of the gastrointestinal tract is poor. At this time, you should eat some light food. In tonics, except for Cordyceps sinensis and bird's nest, which are relatively light, other tastes are somewhat biased, and blind supplementation may cause digestive tract problems such as bloating.
But now a lot of Ejiao is made into a film, with sesame seeds and walnuts added in the middle, which neutralizes the greasy nature of Ejiao itself. You can take it just in the spring, and don't eat it after February in the lunar calendar. Ginseng: Take it for people in spring.
Ginseng is hot, people with oral ulcers, often feel thirsty, palms and soles are hot and so on are not suitable to take it. As for whether ginseng can be taken after spring, it varies from person to person. People with deficiency and cold constitution can eat it, but they should also reduce it appropriately. It is best not to eat more than 6 grams of ginseng every day.
There are many ways to take ginseng, among which oral administration and chewing are the best, followed by taking it in soup and making tea and wine. These methods are still applicable after spring, but no matter what kind of ginseng you eat or how you eat it, you can't overdo it. Even people with qi deficiency will get angry if you eat too much. In addition, when taking ginseng, if you want to mix it with other medicinal materials or supplements, it is recommended to consult a doctor first, and do not mix it indiscriminately, otherwise it will easily cause adverse reactions.
It is worth noting that at present, it is the high incidence period of respiratory diseases. Once infectious diseases such as colds break out, it is not suitable to take supplements such as ginseng. Similarly, if you are in the onset of chronic diseases, you should not blindly take tonic.
When the inexhaustible ginseng is stored, it is packed in a packaging bag and put into a refrigerator at 0~2, and it can be taken again in the next winter.
Cream: You can add some American ginseng.
Traditionally, the role of ointment is to nourish. However, the concept of modern tonic should be changed to tonic, especially cream, which pays attention to one person and one side. It varies from person to person and from time to time. Even in summer, you can take cream suitable for summer.
Spring is coming, and the nourishing cream in winter can be suspended. You can also eat cream in spring, and you may wish to add cool herbs such as American ginseng. The cream should be stored in cold storage. If it is stored for a long time, small mildew spots appear on the surface of the cream, the part with small mildew spots can be removed, and the rest can be put into the pot again. At the same time, a clean container is prepared, filled with the boiled cream, cooled and covered for storage.
In addition, velvet antler, deer whip, etc., are drugs that warm the kidney and strengthen yang, and contain more hormones. Those who are not seriously deficient in kidney yang should not eat them.
