A common misconception about diet is that
90% of people who have lost weight have done something wrong.

Myth 1: Losing weight means eating less and being hungry.

Losing weight is to make energy intake less than energy consumption, not to go on a diet and starve. You can adjust your diet structure through exercise and increase your calorie consumption.

The correct way: Choose foods with strong satiety, usually "low calorie and high satiety" foods, increase protein intake, reduce carbohydrate intake, and then exercise to help you lose weight successfully.

Myth 2: You can lose weight without eating meat.

If you don't eat meat for a long time, you may have health problems, and your basal metabolic rate may also decrease, making it easier to lose weight!

The correct way: choose the right meat. During weight loss, you can choose meat with fat content below 10%, such as tenderloin, lean beef, chicken breast, fish and shrimp. And try to steam, boil and stew instead of frying.

Misunderstanding of weight loss 3: wrapping plastic wrap has a good weight loss effect.

The method of losing weight by wrapping plastic wrap can not fundamentally lose weight, but will affect the heat dissipation on the body surface, leading to the increase of local temperature, perspiration and water loss.

The correct way: it is unscientific to use plastic wrap, wrap plastic wrap and apply slimming cream in the right place. It is suggested that drinking more water and exercising more to promote metabolism can fundamentally burn fat.

Myth 4: The sooner you lose weight, the better.

Generally, losing weight quickly is inseparable from dieting. Once the diet is resumed, the weight will rebound immediately; In addition, losing weight too fast will lead to muscle loss, skin relaxation and accelerated aging.

The correct way: lose weight step by step, and the ideal weight loss speed is to lose 24 kilograms a month. Don't pursue too fast weight loss, set a small goal every month and finish it step by step.
