Methods: Many people will gain weight after quitting smoking, but not all of them will. The average weight gain of 3-4 kg is moderate. If this happens, you should give up smoking first and then lose weight. In addition to exercise, it is to eat less high-fat food, control the intake of bright red pork, beef and mutton, and appropriately eat chickens, ducks, geese and rabbits, or aquatic shellfish such as clams, oysters and crabs. Because the fat in light-colored and shellfish meat is very low, it can avoid the increase of human cholesterol to the maximum extent.
With meat, you can't eat less fruits and vegetables, and it's best to eat more fruits and vegetables when you quit smoking. First, the fat content is low and it won't gain meat. The second is to find a healthy substitute in the process of quitting smoking. Besides eating more fruits and vegetables, drink more water and don't have an empty stomach.
In fact, nutrition experts say that some people gain weight only temporarily after quitting smoking, and when the smoker's body adjusts to the change of quitting smoking, it will return to normal weight.
Misunderstanding of quitting smoking
You will get fat after quitting smoking. Generally speaking, old smokers will gain weight after quitting smoking. This is because the stimulation of smoke to the body disappears, the state of various organs gradually improves and the appetite increases. If they don't do more physical exercise, they will gain weight. However, if we can strengthen physical exercise, after quitting smoking completely, the functions of various organs of the body will reach a balanced state, and whether or not weight gain has nothing to do with quitting smoking.
Many beautiful women are most worried that quitting smoking will make them fat, so will quitting smoking really affect their weight? Is there a good way to quit smoking and keep fit?
According to the French Nutrition Information Research Center, the survey shows that about one-third of smokers will not gain weight because of quitting smoking, but many smokers will gain an average weight of 3 to 4 kilograms, which may increase even more if preventive measures are not taken. To this end, the center put forward some suggestions on how to prevent obesity.
The Nutrition Information Research Center believes that a balanced diet is necessary for smokers. Smokers usually like greasy food and sweets, and they also like to eat things with sauce and salt, but they don't like vegetables. Nicotine intake will reduce people's appetite, and people's bad eating habits will be more prominent during smoking cessation. Therefore, smokers are advised to consult a dietitian or doctor about their diet.
The center also advocates smokers to eat a lot of food every meal, that is, a hearty breakfast (including drinks, bread, butter, fruit, yogurt, etc. ) and a complete lunch (not too fat meat, vegetables, fruits, etc. ). Dinner should be moderate. If you are still hungry between meals, you'd better eat some fruits and vegetables, such as apples and tomatoes. As for drinks, it is best to drink water. Alcoholic drinks make people want to smoke.
Another main way for smokers to avoid getting fat is to exercise more. For example, exercise consumes more than 200 kilocalories a day; If you don't like sports very much, you can often take a walk and do more housework. In addition, replacing cigarettes with nicotine substitutes can also slow down the rate of weight gain.
About 75% quitters finally fail to quit smoking, one of the reasons is that they are worried that quitting smoking may make them gain weight. Weight gain during smoking cessation can be prevented, so don't worry too much. In addition, not all smokers are in danger of getting fat by quitting smoking.
