Why did you lose weight and gain body fat?
Maybe you are losing weight in the wrong way.

Sometimes, it really happens if I go on a diet to lose weight. Now, in order to control my weight, I go on a lot of diets. Sometimes I have a cup of coffee for breakfast, a fruit salad at noon and only some vegetables at night. I am hungry every day. After a while, I lost more than 5 Jin, but my body fat rate increased from 22 to 27.

I was shocked at that time. Later, I went to ask about it and asked my brother who studied nutrition. He told me that this is a normal phenomenon.

Because when people are hungry, the first thing they break down is not your fat, but your muscles. Protein decomposes faster than fat. When they decompose at the same time, your muscle growth is much more damaged than fat. In this case, it is easy for you to have an increase in body fat rate.

Therefore, if you are dieting to lose weight, it is normal to lose weight, but the body fat rate is rising. In this case, we should try to reduce the obvious hunger. When we are hungry, we should order more food for ourselves. It's crucial to eat less and eat more, but don't make yourself hungry.

At the same time, adding some muscle strength training can help you maintain muscle content and ensure that the body fat rate is controlled in a very good range. After losing weight to a certain extent, don't let it drop blindly, but increase the muscle content and keep the body fat rate stable.
