Tips for losing weight-drinking to gain weight.
Drinking is a taboo in our slimming process, and drinking has a very destructive effect on slimming. This is determined by the composition and structure of alcohol.

After drinking, the products of alcohol metabolism and decomposition in the body are only water, carbon dioxide and heat (I think I remember correctly, after all, high school chemistry is still good), which can not bring more valuable nutrition to our body.

1, alcohol has a high calorie. When our alcohol begins to decompose and release energy, the energy needed for metabolism in our body will be directly provided by this part of energy released by alcohol. On the other hand, since energy is supplied, glycogen and fat that should provide energy for our body will be preserved until the alcohol in the body is completely consumed, and glycogen and fat will be burned.

Generally, we drink more than just drinking. Drinking occasions are more occasions such as eating and gathering. All kinds of delicious food and snacks are very easy for us to eat more food, increase our intake and lead to weight gain.

Therefore, a common misunderstanding is corrected here. Drinking doesn't mean directly converting into fat, but we will replace the fat that should be burned when drinking, so that the fat can be preserved. A glass of beer (ordinary cup) has about 150 calories and only 0.3 g of fat.

It is normal for our weight to rise occasionally, because in the process of losing weight, our weight change curve will not always show a downward trend, but will show a zigzag overall downward curve that fluctuates up and down. If we keep good eating habits all the time, this increase is only a manifestation of our body's self-protection mechanism.

Of course, if the diet is a little indulgent, it will occasionally rebound. For example, a friend who is now supervising weight loss ate a little too much a few days ago. Of course, it is also because I am not too strict. As a result, I rebounded for a while, and then the weight loss effect disappeared for almost a week. But strangely, the rebound is a bit large. I asked her if she drank much water at night. She said no (here is the curve of her recent weight change. )

At that time, her mentality was a little out of control, which puzzled me, because we could not gain a lot of weight at once, and most of the harvest in such a short time was water. What caused this friend's weight to rebound quickly?

She told me yesterday that she used to weigh herself in pajamas after waking up (before going to bed on June 9) and jeans before going to bed. I really want to ask her why she doesn't carry a bag and weigh it again. (disgusted eyes)

Back to the above, why does the body have a self-protection mechanism? This is the result of millions of years of human evolution, and the intelligence is far beyond imagination. If our weight continues to drop, it will judge whether this weight drop will have an impact on our health and try to return to the previous balance, but after confirming that it has no impact on our health, our weight will continue to go down. Therefore, in the process of slimming, we should treat weight fluctuations rationally and pay attention to controlling our slimming mentality.
