2. Common sense of healthy weight loss

1. Eating less and eating more meals may not necessarily make you lose weight

Eating less and eating more meals is a diet slimming method that many girls will choose. In fact, this method is based on the fact that some girls have strong metabolism and always feel hungry. If you reduce the calories of each meal and increase the number of meals, you can ensure that the calories do not exceed the standard and you will not be tortured by hunger. But it doesn't mean that every girl who eats less and eats more meals will lose weight. If the ingredients you choose are high in calories, eating more meals will gain weight. If your metabolism is not strong, eating less and eating more meals will increase the metabolic burden and make obesity worse.

2. Vegetables and fruits are not the most effective way to lose weight

Some girls who have successfully lost weight know that vegetables and fruits can't be eaten as staple food for a long time, because the body lacks lipids, protein and minerals, and the metabolism will be reduced, which is not good for losing weight.

3. Don't think that if you eat too much and exercise, you won't get fat.

When you are losing weight, it is inevitable that you will want to eat taboo and high-calorie food. You can't help but eat more, and many girls will exercise hard, trying to make the calories consumed by exercise offset the calories of the food you eat. In fact, if you don't eat a lot of calories, there is no need to increase your exercise. Because this will make the weight loss plan more chaotic, when you really can't control your addiction, you can snack on your favorite food, which is beneficial to lose weight.

4. The greater the exercise, the better the effect may not be.

Exercise can burn fat, so exercise more at one time, and the slimming effect will be better. Many girls think so, so they overload every time, which will destroy the metabolic balance of the body and lead to muscle and bone strain in the long run. Exercise to lose weight should also be gradual, especially for girls who usually exercise little, and they must exercise according to the limits that their bodies can bear.

5. Staying up late is the enemy of losing weight

If you give a ranking to the metabolic rate, then staying up late is definitely at the top. Young girls have a strong metabolic capacity. Maybe you think it doesn't matter if you stay up late occasionally, but if staying up late becomes a habit and you don't get enough sleep every day, your metabolism will start to decline rapidly. Staying up late is absolutely impossible to lose weight, it will only make your endocrine imbalance and metabolism decline, which is the enemy of weight loss.

6. You can't ignore the influence of emotional stress on weight loss

The pressure of life is getting bigger and bigger, but many girls ignore the negative influence of emotion and stress on weight loss. If you find yourself eating more when you are upset, and you are too emotional to sleep, then you must be alert. You are a constitution that is easily influenced by emotions. Experts remind that getting close to nature, singing loudly, keeping a diary or talking are all good ways to relieve stress, so don't turn depression into appetite.

7. Don't let yourself starve

There is a saying in China: "Three meals at a table". Usually after a big meal, it is followed by starvation. Why is it a bad thing to eat less? Let's imagine that you are trapped in a prison and will only give you food when the guards think of you. Then, what will you do when food is delivered? Store food! Because you have no idea when you will have dinner next time. By the same token, if you often eat a big meal and get hungry again, your body will also form the inertia of storing food, which will directly lead us to gain weight.

8. Be sure to eat breakfast

Breakfast is very important to us, it is a motor of metabolism. Within eight hours after breakfast, the body's fat will burn faster. If this first meal is omitted, the metabolism in the body will be destroyed all day, and the consequences can be imagined.

9. Eat slowly

You know, it's not your stomach that tells you whether you are full, but your brain that you have eaten enough food. Unfortunately, however, there is a 21-minute delay in the connection between the brain and the body, which means that you won't feel this until you have actually been full for 21 minutes. The faster you eat, the more you will eat, because you don't give your brain a chance to tell you that you are full. Therefore, you should eat slowly.

11, drink plenty of water

Metabolism needs to use water to "burn" fat, so if you don't drink enough water, it will also make people fat. Under normal circumstances, a person should drink at least eight glasses of water every day! In fact, losing weight is not about how much you eat, but about how you eat. If you can develop good eating habits, you don't have to go on a painful diet or take a bunch of diet pills.
