This used to be a condition for people to choose a spouse. However, thin is beautiful now, and this sentence has probably been changed to "slim lady, good gentleman" by many people. Many girls who clearly weigh more than 100 kg, but uphold the creed of "a good woman does not exceed 100", clamoring for weight loss all day. In order to lose weight, moderate exercise is also a good phenomenon, afraid of crazy hunger strike to lose weight. In the news, silly girls who break down their bodies in order to lose weight are common.
However, hunger strike to lose weight is not without miracle. There was a fat man in the last century who was a potential stock in Scotland. Relying on "hunger therapy", he fasted for 382 days and successfully lost nearly 250 kilograms of meat. This great man is Angus Barbieri.
He used to be a fat man of 4 12 Jin.
Angus once reached 4 12 Jin. To reach this weight, his diet and work schedule are very problematic, and his body is not in a healthy state. Angus is very uneasy about such a high weight. He wants to go back to his normal life. Instead of giving up on himself, he actively seeks the help of doctors.
This is his wisdom. If ordinary people are only a few tens of pounds overweight, they can try to lose weight by themselves. However, Angus is more than 200 kilograms heavier than the standard weight. If he is fooling around, he may lose his life.
After analyzing his situation, the doctor gave him a suggestion: scientific hunger strike. Angus also set himself a goal to reduce it to 160 kg, which is a normal weight according to his height.
Then Angus fasted for 382 days. People all know that "people are iron rice steel, and they are hungry without eating a meal." If you don't eat or drink, a person will die in a few days. So how did Angus hunger strike for more than a year? The answer is that he didn't eat it completely.
Angus's weight loss process was carried out under the guidance and arrangement of doctors. He doesn't eat fruits, vegetables, meat and other foods, but he regularly and quantitatively supplements supplements such as water, vitamins and minerals, and can also drink some drinks such as tea. It sounds a lot like a nutrient that people in the future drink without taste but can guarantee that people will not die in interstellar novels.
Angus used this method to control his nutritional intake, and the effect was really obvious. But during the hunger strike, he gradually lost interest in food. In order to lose weight better, he also closed his own fried fast food restaurant.
The miracle of dieting
Angus not only fasted, but also exercised on an empty stomach for several hours every day. In addition, he also ran to the hospital very diligently and had regular physical examinations to confirm his physical condition. Sometimes, Angus simply stays in the hospital, saving him from running back and forth.
The doctor closely observed and recorded Angus' physical indicators. Angus's blood sugar index does deviate from that of normal people when doing blood routine, but he feels good and has a clear mind. It's a little difficult to check his stool, because he has hardly eaten anything, and he may only check his stool once a month.
In this way, Angus went on a diet for 382 days, successfully reduced to 164 kg, and lost 248 kg, breaking the Guinness World Record.
Since then, Angus stopped the hunger strike, gradually returned to a normal diet, and his blood sugar soon returned to normal. Gluttony after the hunger strike did not appear on him. In the past five years, his weight has only rebounded by 14 Jin, which is still within the normal weight range as a whole.
I have to say that Angus' story is a miracle. At that time, countless media rushed to report, and many people tried to imitate it. But some people ignore the danger of hunger strike, and there are also unfortunate cases.
negative example (which may serve as a lesson)
In a nursing home in Washington, the dean used a hunger strike to fight hunger and treat diseases, resulting in about 40 people starving to death. 198 1 year, Kieran Doherty of Ireland went on a hunger strike but died 73 days later.
Although fasting has created a miracle, it is called a miracle because it is rare. Few people have such strong self-discipline as Angus. Without the help of a professional doctor, it is very dangerous to blindly try fasting for a long time. You may lose more than ten kilograms, but this behavior can easily lead to anorexia or the risk of myocardial infarction. It's not worth turning yourself into a handful of ashes in order to lose dozens of pounds of meat.
There is no denying that obesity often brings inconvenience to work, life and love. In order to be the best of yourself, losing weight scientifically is a positive behavior. But there are ways to lose weight, and it should be moderate. You must never blindly hunger strike or exercise crazily. The target weight should not be set too low, because the thinner people are, the better they look.
There was once a silly girl in the program who claimed to be 1.67 meters tall, lost 70 pounds for love, and finally only 58 pounds remained. She thinks that the thinner she is, the better she looks and the more perfect she is. As a result, the man she fought for turned out to be just a love rat. It was horrible to see her bony appearance. This girl is "Sister Skeleton", and the chopstick arm is chopsticks legs, just like skin and bones, not as good as when she was slightly fat. From this perspective, people are not thinner and more beautiful, but also have to lose weight.
In a word, Angus Barbieri's weight loss legend cannot be easily copied. People must have a correct concept of losing weight. "Since you want to lose weight, say it every day." Although this slogan is a joke, it is not worthy of praise. The slogans of "the thinner the better" and "no more than 100 good women" are not so absolute.
When losing weight, exercise should take precedence over hunger strike, but exercise should be scientific and moderate, and excessive exercise should not damage the body. People can't go on a hunger strike blindly, because it will do endless harm. For people who are overweight, for the sake of health, it is best to ask a doctor for scientific weight loss. In the final analysis, losing weight is not to make others happy, but to be the best of yourself. The best here includes health.
