First, don't cut calories too much.
Eating an ultra-low calorie diet does more harm than good. Our bodies have "programmed" calorie requirements to ensure our basic metabolism and daily weight. If you suddenly reduce 1000 calories from your diet, your basal metabolic rate, that is, the number of calories your body needs to maintain basic physiological functions such as normal breathing and heartbeat, will automatically decrease, because your body will mistakenly think that you are hungry at this moment and need to be balanced. Not only can you not consume more calories, but it will affect the normal operation of your body functions.
Second, choose "coarse" carbohydrates.
Exquisite carbohydrate foods, such as white bread and potatoes, will produce a lot of insulin, promote fat storage, and may reduce metabolism. Experts advise us to eat carbohydrate foods containing crude fiber: "It is very important to keep the intake of carbohydrate foods, and choose more vegetables, fruits and whole grains, because these foods will produce relatively less insulin."
Third, insist on eating breakfast every day.
Breakfast is the most important meal in a day's metabolism and weight loss plan. The survey shows that people who eat breakfast are more likely to lose weight than those who eat on an empty stomach. When we are sleeping, the metabolic rate in our body drops, and when we start eating again, the metabolic rate will increase with recovery. Therefore, if you miss breakfast, your body will wait until lunch to start burning calories and speed up metabolism, which is undoubtedly not conducive to weight loss. Therefore, it is wise to eat 300 ~ 400 calories of breakfast in the morning to restore the metabolic rate in advance.
Fourth, eat more protein.
Investigation shows that taking enough protein can improve the metabolic rate, and make us consume 150-200 calories every day. Protein is mainly composed of amino acids. Compared with fats and carbohydrates, amino acids are difficult to digest and decompose in the human body, so you need to consume more energy to digest and absorb them.
Of course, this does not mean that we should only rely on a high-protein diet, as long as we ensure that 10%-35% of our daily calories come from protein. In other words, if you eat 1800 calories, 360-630 calories should be foods rich in protein, such as fish, chicken, low-fat cheese, yogurt and beans. In order to get enough protein, nuts, a small can of tuna or a slice of low-fat cheese are all good choices, whether it is a daily meal or a snack.
Five, change three meals a day to six meals a day.
Maybe you will wonder: if you want to lose weight, why should you keep eating? This sounds really contradictory. But in fact, the metabolic rate of eating less than 5-6 times a day is 24 to 7 compared with three big meals a day. Doing so can prevent you from overeating after a long hunger. The interval between meals should not exceed 4 hours. Ensure that all meals contain protein to improve metabolic rate. For example, you can eat coarse fiber grains and fruits in the morning, and you can eat some snacks such as yogurt and fruits in the morning; Have a plate of vegetables for lunch. Zarraga has a moderate amount of chicken or fish. Add another snack at 3-4 pm, such as a banana and a piece of low-fat cheese; Try to have a light and simple dinner and eat less. Consider mixing vegetables with120-180g of turkey, salmon or other kinds of lean meat to increase the protein content. If you sleep late, you can also arrange a midnight snack.
I have been in the valley since last night. (Today is the first day) I plan not to eat any grain, vegetables, fruits, milk, juice, etc. for seven days. Drink only boiled water, pure water or mineral water. The decision was a bit sudden, but it was also unexpected. Invite students with teachers to dinner in the evening. Yunnan cuisine is a very good high-end restaurant in Chongqing. Before dinner, the teacher's students talked about her 2 1 day change. She is young, her skin has healed, and her physical illness is gone. And proved several magical cases, such as uremia patients recovered, kidney calculi patients actually discharged stones, and girls with both qi and blood deficiency were ruddy. My other senior, Zhuo, was very envious after witnessing this senior's magical experience. Immediately decided to start tonight. After she made this decision, she said slightly, let me follow her. In this way, I embarked on this road and decided to take this road.
Seeing that they had a big dinner, Sister Zhuo and I could only look at each other. In order to distract myself, my elder sister plays with her mobile phone, while I always drink water. At this time, a strange WeChat friend said that she was lovelorn. Nearby, she asked me to have a drink. I don't know who she is, and I am in Chongqing, not in Beijing, which I am familiar with, so I refused after a few words. After they finished eating, they saw that the food on the table was not consumed much, and then they remembered, why not let the lovelorn girls come over for dinner? In the meantime, another teacher's student came. She has been in the valley 1 1 day, and she is in a surprisingly good state, without any fatigue and full of energy. She talked about the benefits of breaking the valley, physical changes and magical experiences. I also shared several other magical cases in the process of breaking the valley.
In fact, before that, in 2008, I had another experience of fasting for seven days in a row. In this process, eat a cucumber and an apple every day. So it's not a valley in the strict sense. On the seventh day, I clearly remember that I got on a bus and felt that I was about to fly. But because it was summer, the smell of people in the car was so strong that it smoked me to death and almost fell in the car. After getting off the bus, I chose to eat again that night. After this experience, I also chose to fast for one day at a certain stage to adjust my physical condition, which really achieved good results. I just didn't leave anything to share with you. This time, I decided to record the whole process and feelings and share them with the right people.
After returning home, the teacher taught two convincing moves. It is said that these two movements are very important in the process of breaking the grain. Because what is gathered in food is the aura of heaven and earth, the brilliance of the sun and the moon. If you don't get this energy from food, you must get it in another way. So these two movements are very important. At the same time, I filled the most taboo thing in the valley: emotions. Adjust your mood and keep yourself in a peaceful state. In addition to being convinced by the body, it is also convinced by the heart. Angry at everyone, grateful to everyone.
Body feeling at night: bloating. Probably because I ate too much before. I used to defecate every night. Last night, I just farted in the toilet and pooped a little. After that, my physical condition was very relaxed. I weighed myself at night, which was almost 120 kg. I fell asleep around midnight and slept well all night. No dreams. I didn't get up on time after I woke up at six in the morning. I lay in bed for an hour. During this time, I had a dream. Dreams are also better, not chaotic. The penis erection is normal, and there is a little desire, but it will pass after a while. Compared with before, it is much weaker.
I was thirsty in the morning and drank half a glass of water. Under the teacher's advice, I felt refreshed. I went out for a long walk and didn't feel anything special. Instead, I turned around this community, with mountains and water and a very good environment. Face the sun all the way and train my speech. It feels really good. There is no hunger, and some are full.
Before noon, we will go to the nearby Huayan Temple. The teacher said that when the valley is broken, the place with energy should bring the aura of heaven and earth. The temperature in Chongqing today is about 30 degrees, not very hot, and the weather is moderate. But running up and down in the temple, taking a lot of photos and carrying a big bag, is really tired. But mentally, there is no feeling of fatigue. I also basked in the sun for nearly half an hour, followed the teacher to clean the temple and solemn the Buddhist temple. The teacher's words are worth sharing: pray for Buddha to become sentient beings, and solemn Buddha to become a bodhisattva. Therefore, working for the Buddha and becoming a tool of the Buddha is naturally getting closer and closer to the Buddha.
When I was in Huayan Temple, Sister Zhuo was already out of breath. My judgment is that she drinks too little water. When you go to the toilet, you see that the urine turns yellow, so drink water quickly. When breaking through the valley, pay attention to the water must keep up. Otherwise, it is a kind of harm to yourself. After getting on the bus from Huayan Temple, go to Luohan Temple. On the way, I had a rest. I have never slept so beautifully in the car, and I arrived at my destination with a bang. I suddenly realized that time can travel through. I really feel that time exists relatively in our three-dimensional subspace. The teacher said: when we can enter the four-dimensional or five-dimensional space, time can be surpassed. And dreams are the low point of this dimension.
In the Lohan Temple, I feel nothing, I'm still not tired. Stay on the water. I'm a little sleepy on the way home. Look at the scenery outside the window first. In my opinion, Chongqing is a great city. Bridges, ropeways, and city railways shuttle between houses. The house is by the river, in the mountains, at the top of the mountain and in the valley. It's really amazing. And roads, overpasses, forks. I don't know anyway. I really admire our driver. Have a safe trip, let me have a good sleep in the car. Because I'm not asleep now, and my spirit is still there.
A little hungry at night. The reason is that when the teacher elder sister cooked for the teacher, the taste of the food stimulated my stomach. I was hungry and wanted to eat. There are longan, apples, peanuts and other foods on the table. However, I resisted the temptation. My mind tells me that I want to eat because my stomach wants to eat, not because I want to eat. My mind tells me: I'm not hungry, I'm full. My mind tells me that I can overcome my desire. So I survived.
Washing clothes, washing dishes, wiping the floor and doing manual work still don't feel tired. It still feels very good. Just thirsty, because I didn't drink water in time when I came back. When sticking out your tongue, the tongue coating in the mirror turns yellow and your breath is serious. I don't want to defecate at night. Later, after the water caught up, I peed too much. But they are all positive.
I made a phone call, and Amida told me to drink more water and go to bed early and get up early. And very supportive, saying it's good. Because many of the clothes she bought me are almost worn out. Because in the past year, I gained more than ten kilograms. She also told not to eat too much at once in the recovery stage, otherwise the probability of weight and body shape rebound is very high. And it's harmful to the stomach. This really bothers her.
Go to work at night and get things done. Specifically, write a copy to the computer and make a plan. I have been blogging in front of my computer for almost an hour now. Meanwhile, my stomach growled a few times. At the same time, my stomach was churning in it looking for something, and I was a little hungry. But it's over now. I'm going to bed, too. Because it's already one o'clock in the morning. Continue to share tomorrow, Valley Road.
Cordyceps sinensis: It can be eaten in all seasons.
The main function of Cordyceps sinensis is to enhance human immunity, tonify lung and kidney, benefit essence and qi, and it is mild in nature. Generally, it can be taken in all seasons, but as the weather gets warmer, the dosage of healthy people can be slightly reduced.
Cordyceps sinensis has high nutritional utilization rate of boiled water. You can put 3~6 Cordyceps sinensis in water, boil it with slow fire, and drink it after boiling. Don't drink cordyceps water when it turns pale or even white. You can eat Cordyceps.
The key of Cordyceps sinensis is moth prevention. When storing, it is best to separate them, seal them with plastic bags and put them in the refrigerator or freezer. As long as the age is not too long, it generally does not deteriorate.
Ejiao: Not suitable for spring.
A greasy tonic like Ejiao is not recommended to be taken in spring. Because the principle of spring tonic is based on flat tonic, avoid hot tonic. Weak temper in spring means poor digestive ability of gastrointestinal tract. At this time, you should eat some light food. Among the tonics, except for Cordyceps sinensis and bird's nest, the other tastes are somewhat biased, and blind supplementation may cause gastrointestinal problems such as bloating.
But now many Ejiao are made into films, and sesame seeds and walnuts are added in the middle, which neutralizes the greasiness of Ejiao itself. You can eat it in spring, but you won't eat it after February of the lunar calendar. Ginseng: Give it to people in spring.
Ginseng fever, people with oral ulcers, often feel thirsty, palms and soles are hot and so on are not suitable for taking. As for whether you can eat ginseng after spring, it varies from person to person. People with deficiency and cold constitution can eat it, but they should also reduce it appropriately. It is best not to eat more than 6 grams of ginseng every day.
There are many ways to take ginseng, among which oral administration and chewing are the best, followed by making soup, making tea and soaking wine. These methods are still applicable after spring, but no matter what kind of ginseng you eat or how you eat it, you can't overdo it. Even people with qi deficiency will get angry if they eat too much. In addition, when taking ginseng, if you want to mix it with other medicinal materials or supplements, it is recommended to consult a doctor first and not to use it indiscriminately, otherwise it will easily cause adverse reactions.
It is worth noting that it is the high incidence period of respiratory diseases. Once infectious diseases such as colds break out, it is not suitable to take supplements such as ginseng. Similarly, if you are in the onset of chronic diseases, don't blindly take tonics.
When the inexhaustible ginseng is stored, it is put into a packaging bag, put into a refrigerator at 0 ~ 2, and then taken in the next winter.
Cream: You can add some American ginseng.
Traditionally, the role of ointment is to nourish. However, the concept of modern tonic should be changed into tonic, especially cream, and pay attention to one person and one side. It varies from person to person and from time to time. Even in summer, you can take a cream suitable for summer.
Spring has come, and the nourishing cream in winter can be suspended. You can also eat cream in spring, and you may wish to add cool herbs such as American ginseng. Cream should be refrigerated. If it is stored for a long time and small mildew spots appear on the surface of the paste, you can remove the part with small mildew spots and put the rest in the pot. At the same time, prepare a clean container, fill it with boiled cream, cool it and cover it for preservation.
In addition, velvet antler, deer whip and so on. , are drugs that warm the kidney and strengthen yang, and contain more hormones. It is not suitable for people with kidney-yang deficiency.
