I like losing weight as much as Haruki Murakami. People who are losing weight will want to beat others, because I am losing weight every day and I am not losing weight. Because I believe that you can lose weight without losing weight, that is, this method must be enjoyable and persistent, and it is the last time you lose weight in your life, but you haven't graduated a day, because you have changed yourself since then.
Why not lose weight and get thinner? From a scientific point of view, it is more difficult to lose weight by eating less and exercising more, because you violate the original setting of human beings. In ancient times, our ancestors walked out of caves with bows and arrows on their backs in search of food. They may walk three kilometers to catch a rabbit. After a good meal and rest, they saw the hive and ate honey, and then they didn't know how many roads to walk before they could see their next prey.
In order to survive and reproduce, I don't know where the next meal will be after eating this one. Humans are greedy and tend to overeat, which set the brain circuit from their ancestors.
Stephan J. Guye, a researcher in obesity and neuroscience, pointed out in the book Fat Hacker Living in the Brain that the hypothalamus dominates the constant temperature in the human body, that is, you sweat when you feel hot and tremble when you are cold, helping to regulate your body temperature is like a constant temperature air conditioner at home. Unfortunately, the hypothalamus also regulates your body fat. When you want to lose weight, it will make you hungry or slow down your metabolism, even though we no longer forage in the wild.
In the past, we were taught that the problem of weight is only related to two things. One is the number of calories consumed, and the other is whether the willpower is firm.
We have a food policeman inside. He divides food into good food and bad food. High oil, high sugar and high calorie are regarded as bad foods, while light, low oil and low calorie are regarded as good foods. Weight is the result of self-management. An entrepreneur once said, "If you can't control eating, what can you control?"? But things that rely on willpower usually lose, and the body is the real boss.
"Appetite, like * * *, is a human instinct," Tojo (prefixed), director of neurosurgery at Limo National Hospital in Tokyo, Japan, said in an interview with the media. If there is life-threatening pressure, people will easily run away, because the animal brain is in control at that time.
In order to lose weight quickly, dieting or even not eating, in fact, the body is very thirsty, just like sharbat drinking, it will become an "animal brain" state, which may get out of control at any time. What you resist will be strengthened; What you resist will last. Eating desire like this, like anxiety and fear, is controlled by the limbic system of the brain and belongs to the instinctive animal brain, so it is difficult to make a rational judgment.
Dieting is difficult to succeed because dieting is often based on fear of changing people's lifestyles. If you don't lose weight, you will get diabetes or stroke in the future. Scientifically speaking, long-term obesity does increase the probability, but fear-driven weight loss often fails because we don't want to believe that things will really happen or even think about it.
Dieting often means dictatorship. Divide food into "good food" and "bad food", inedible and necessary. If one day you relax, it's cheating. Although this method can be done without thinking, as long as you follow the diet, you may be able to force yourself to do something in a short time, but sooner or later, people will start to resist, because "I work and live so hard, why should I do this?" 」
When we inevitably give up dieting, we usually blame ourselves, feel guilty, lose control again, distrust ourselves again, hate ourselves again, and fall into a vicious circle again.
By dieting to lose weight, more than 95% people are doing white work. Have you ever heard of the yo-yo effect? In just a few years or months, it is very dangerous to go up and down because of the drastic changes in diet. Not only will it be difficult to regain normal weight in the future, but even worse, most of the fat that grows back will accumulate in the abdomen and internal organs, which will increase the risk of cardiovascular disease in the future, that is, you may lose your life in order to post a good figure that everyone envies on Facebook and Instagram.
But it's not without opportunities. The brain, which has been fixed since our ancestors, makes us eat unconsciously. At the same time, we also eat emotionally because of stress, depression and rebellion. Now, from taking care of your heart, diet, mood and physical strength to the home environment, the focus is no longer on the weight, but you will experience that your body is smarter than any expert and it will begin to take care of itself.
In the course of the war with obesity, it is not brute force and restraint, but elegant, intelligent, calm and habitual choice. Because you know, no matter how old you are, there is still a shining you waiting in the future. You need your body as your partner. You are thin for living, not for weight. This will be a life-changing lesson.
What you need to do now is not to set a numerical goal, choose a diet online, eat and exercise in order to lose weight from now on. Life revolves around losing weight, but tell yourself that you accept yourself now, but you will change your health in the future. Health is not a matter of weight. Losing weight and getting a better posture are just dividends.
Weight or figure is by no means another battlefield to conquer. Losing weight does not depend on strong willpower. From now on, we can only eat boiled vegetables every day instead of starch. Oh, we have to exercise for 30 minutes and drink 3 liters of water every day. Besides, I heard that fasting is very effective ... we are not female stars who want to walk the red carpet. We need to lose weight quickly in a short time. A healthy diet, a healthy attitude and a healthy posture are what we should naturally have.
And we have a healthy habit, and we have to do it all our lives. Now, from taking care of your heart to taking care of your mood and body to taking care of your living space, as long as there is a change, others will turn it over like dominoes.
prescribe a diet
Losing weight is a diet based on mindfulness. Realize what you are eating, allow yourself to put down your struggle, put down your anxiety about calories, put down the difference between good food and bad food, and treat every bite of food again.
sports
"no gain" should not be regarded as motivation. Exercise can eliminate fatigue and enhance physical strength. Slow down and exercise for life.
mood
You don't need to pursue the false success defined by others, you don't need to be exhausted, you don't need to be mean to yourself, practice cherishing yourself, and you know it.
life
Being rich doesn't mean being rich, and love shouldn't be a burden. Tidy up your thoughts, tidy up your space, tidy up your relationship with food, and find the right priorities. Only when the room is zero in fat can you be zero in fat.
heart
Health begins with taking care of your heart. You support yourself and your life. All you have to do is be yourself more completely. From now on, listen to your body and stop hurting the body that works for you day and night.
How to live a good life every day is a right you can control, and it is also a key factor to determine your health and quality of life. Always choose what to eat, how to eat, what is the order of eating, whether to exercise, how to exercise, and how late to stay up? Do you want to tidy up at home? Do you want to stand up while watching TV? This is all your choice. You are not losing weight, but building your own life.
