Nutritionist Zhao who said that you must diet and eat less to lose weight? When I was in the weight loss clinic, I saw many cases of careful actuarial calorie calculation. Most of them are women, and they eat a lot less than before, but it never works and they can't lose weight! The harder you try not to eat, the more you can't get rid of the nightmare of obesity! Get rid of the myth that losing weight counts as calories, diet and eat less. It may be hard for you to get rid of the belief that losing weight is counting calories, but as long as you spend a few minutes thinking about the following questions, you will find that counting calories to lose weight is not as easy as you think! Will eating junk food with 1000 calories containing sugar and oil have the same impact on our health as eating a balanced diet containing vegetables, meat, starch, fiber and nutrients? Is the calorie value calculated every time really correct? Are all the calories labeled on the market correct? How to calculate what ingredients the store uses when eating goods? Can you really calculate the amount of sugar and oil hidden in the sauce accurately? Counting the four reasons why calorie dieting often fails to lose weight 1: Losing weight only depends on the amount of calories, which will lead to worse metabolism. Eating 7700 calories less does not mean that you will lose one kilogram, because you can't burn fat without eating basic metabolic nutrition. Losing weight is not only adding and subtracting numbers, but more importantly, using the right method. Reducing food consumption by strenuous dieting will only lead to a decrease in basal metabolic rate, less and less muscle mass, worse fat metabolism and a great reduction in weight loss. Reason 2: Drinking a sugary drink from junk food with the same calorie will make you fatter than healthy food. Twenty cubes of sugar will have as many as 400 calories, which is about equivalent to a bowl of high-fiber brown rice (300 calories) and two hot dishes (50 calories) plus a marinated egg (55 calories)! The former has only simple sugar, which is easy to make the body accumulate synthetic fat; The latter's balanced diet is rich in dietary fiber, which helps to remove waste from the body and delay hunger. Therefore, eating whole food nutrition is more important than simply counting calories to diet or eat indiscriminately! Reason 3: Balancing your hormones is more important than counting calories. Our body has various hormones, which are the key to directly affect the synthesis and decomposition of fat! Including digesting and decomposing all the food eaten, transforming it into daily energy, regulating blood sugar, affecting satiety and hunger. In the clinic, I have met many women who are cruel to dieting. They only eat less than 500 calories a day and don't come for more than half a year. In addition to the weight has been rising, their faces are covered with acne! Because of the lack of essential fatty acids and protein, the imbalance between female hormones and skin oil and water will lead to irreversible menopause in the long run, but the loss outweighs the gain! Our body has a "food control system" to maintain the balance of metabolism. When we are on a diet and don't eat, our bodies will send a signal to remind ourselves that we are in a state of famine. As soon as food enters, our bodies will start to hoard a lot of fat in our bodies to avoid another famine. Medical research has found that people who eat only one meal a day will increase the body's absorption rate of food calories, and it is easier to accumulate fat on the body. In addition, this hunger signal will also increase the desire to eat. This article is reproduced from Zhao's personal website/original source.
