I often hear people say that eating less is the basic principle of losing weight, but why doesn't it work for me? What is the reason? We will answer 10 questions step by step to find out why we can't lose weight.
Q 1。 Which meal did you miss? Lunch, dinner or breakfast?
Reasons for getting fat: No matter how busy you are, don't eat less breakfast! Skipping breakfast will not only make you slim down, but also make you fatter!
The first question is to ask you first. If you miss a meal, which meal did you miss? If you eat less "breakfast", no wonder you can't lose weight!
Trick: "Breakfast" is the first and most important meal in a day, so eat as safely as possible.
From last night's dinner to today's breakfast, I have been on an empty stomach for nearly 12 hours. In particular, you need to eat a hearty breakfast to wake up the internal organs that are still in bed, help start the metabolism of the whole day, and replenish your body energy!
Q2。 How much did you eat at the next or last meal?
The reason for being fat: I ate less this meal, but the next one was fierce. The total calories are amazing, but of course I still can't lose weight!
Tip: Remember this sentence "Total calories is the truth"! Eat less this meal, and you will snore before the next meal. At this time, you can't help eating a few biscuits or cakes, which may be more calories than eating a dinner! Even if you really try to get to the next meal, you may eat more because of hunger! In short, don't think that you can lose weight by eating one less meal. The total calories added up all day is the truth of getting fat or losing weight!
Do you know that?/You know what? The shortcut to lose weight is not hunger, but to lose weight and eat less calories! In the case of the same amount, choose low-calorie food, so you don't have to lose weight nervously!
Q3。 Do you eat less and exercise less?
Causes of obesity: calorie intake has decreased and consumption has also decreased. Therefore, the total heat has not changed.
Just dieting to lose weight, the original exercise habits suddenly stop or decrease, eat less, although the calorie intake decreases, but stopping exercise also reduces the calories consumed, eating less and exercising less, and the result is still thin!
Tips: The correct concept of losing weight should be a planned diet and regular exercise. Only by coordinating the two can we achieve the best weight loss effect. No one, even if it is a temporary weight loss, is easy to encounter the devil of weight gain!
Q4。 Did you eat more snacks or supper instead of a meal?
Reasons for getting fat: reducing the chances of eating informal meals is the most effective way to eat less meals.
Although I ate less lunch, I ate more afternoon tea? Eat less at dinner, but eat more at midnight snack? Of course, this is useless! And it will make your body get fat more easily!
Blacklist: instant noodles, stinky tofu, salted chicken and pot-stewed vegetables.
Honor roll: porridge clear soup. Ginger porridge, garlic porridge ... recommend all kinds of beauty slimming porridge and clear soup.
Push: It's simple to say, but it's easy to be ignored by us. You may think that a small cake, a cup of bubble tea and a bowl of broth should be nothing, but the fact that BODY wants to tell you is that the calories of these foods are really amazing! This is why nutritionists always remind us of the importance of timing three meals! You can avoid eating some high-calorie foods that you don't have.
Q5。 What are the other two meals?
Reasons for getting fat: you can lose a little fat by properly reducing the intake of carbohydrates!
Tip: Check your food and drink content! You especially like to eat starch and carbohydrates, such as rice, bread, steamed bread, cakes, Guandong cooking and so on. The insulin in your body is often in a violent ups and downs.
In addition to being prone to hunger, these sugary foods also secrete a lot of insulin in the body, which helps the food to turn into fat and accumulate in the body. That's it, so your figure is always fatter than others! Whether you miss a meal or not, a proper and balanced intake of six foods is the key to keeping slim!
Q6。 Has the body's basal metabolic rate dropped?
To put it bluntly, it is detoxification. Clean up the waste in your body in time and tell you the following practical methods.
Reasons for getting fat: improving the body's basal metabolic rate is a more effective way to lose weight than eating one meal less!
You can't lose weight without a few meals. Probably because your basal metabolic rate has dropped!
Trick: There are three main ways for human body to consume calories: 1 is diet, accounting for 10, 2 is activity, accounting for 20, and 3 is basal metabolic rate, accounting for 60~70. So basal metabolic rate is the main key to consume calories! It can be seen that it is more practical to lose weight and improve basal metabolic rate than to control diet hard! Exercise more, drink more water, take a bath often, massage often, etc. These are all effective ways to improve basal metabolic rate!
Q7。 Is it muscle or fat in the body?
Causes of obesity: 1 kg muscle consumption 100 calories, 1 kg fat can only consume 4- 10 calories!
Is fat fat or a strong muscle hidden in your body? Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what? 1 kg of muscle can consume about 100 calories a day, while 1 kg of fat can only consume 4~ 10 calories a day. The difference in calories consumed by muscle and fat is more than 10 times!
Tip: The higher the proportion of body muscles, the higher the basal metabolic rate. Conversely, the higher the fat ratio, the lower the basal metabolic rate! Therefore, efforts should be made to increase the body's muscle mass and make it meaningful to eat one less meal.
This question needs to be considered: Is it important to lose weight or to look slimmer?
Q8。 Is the daily nutritional intake balanced?
Reasons for getting fat: Eat the right food, so that the body can get balanced nutrition, in order to lose weight healthily!
Want to lose weight, eat less, can reduce calorie intake, eat the right food, so that the body can get balanced nutrition, in order to lose weight healthily! Especially for office workers who eat out all day, they need special attention.
Tips: The so-called balanced diet is the balanced intake of six categories of food. The recommended daily intake is as follows:
3 ~ 6 bowls of cereal, roots, milk, 1 ~ 2 parts, eggs, beans and fish 4 parts.
Vegetables, 3 vegetables, fruits, 2 oils, 2 ~ 3 tablespoons.
Keep it firmly in mind and train yourself to eat a balanced diet every day, so that you can become thin and beautiful in a healthy and balanced way!
Q9。 Eat the last meal of the day before going to bed?
Reasons for getting fat: don't eat 3 ~ 4 hours before going to bed, so as to avoid food hoarding in the body and getting fat!
The time to eat is also related to the size of the body! Although you have missed a meal, you just ate the last meal before going to bed, and then went to bed when you were full. The energy accumulated in the body has no chance to be consumed at all, and it becomes fat accumulated in the body!
Tips: Develop a good habit of not eating for 3-4 hours before going to bed to prevent food from accumulating in the body and getting fat! In addition to eating less than one meal, you should also eat wisely at the right time to make your weight drop efficiently! It is recommended to do some stretching exercises before going to bed to relax muscles, which can consume calories and fall asleep faster!
Q 10, eating less will make you fat! How could it be so unlucky?
Reasons for getting fat: If there is no food, the nutrition will be absorbed more completely if there is food.
Tip: Eating without food will make the body confused about the correct energy absorption time. At this time, the body's self-protection mechanism will be activated, and two things will happen as a result: First, once food energy enters, the body will absorb and store it in large quantities for later use. Second, the body automatically stores fat, but first breaks down muscle tissue to provide energy. It leads to less and less muscles, higher fat ratio and thinner body!
