Can you lose weight during menstruation? So what can be healthy and effective? Some people say that menstruation is the first stage of the best time to lose weight: don't diet or exercise vigorously for 7 days after menstruation begins, but focus on shaping. The early stage of MC is also a good time to build a strong body. Excessive dieting can easily lead to dehydration but can't reduce weight. You can choose some mild sports, such as walking and pilates. The recommended exercise time is 3~5 hours/week. Healthy diet: 1, eat more iron-containing foods and plant proteins that can improve iron absorption. Avoid eating cold food to avoid edema of lower limbs caused by poor blood circulation. 2. Alcohol and spicy food, such as pepper, onion, garlic, pepper, ginger, cinnamon and barbecue fried food, should be banned. There will be slight edema on the body and face, so don't eat salty food. Eating more foods containing magnesium and B vitamins, such as bananas and animal livers, can make the metabolism better. The second stage: from the 7th day after menstruation to14th day, keep exercising for 2 hours every day or every other day, and keep exercising for more than 7 hours every week. For people who want to lose weight, running, swimming and cycling are the best choices. Healthy diet: 1, this is a very easy time to get fat. If the calories you eat can't be broken down quickly, they will turn into fat and stay in your body, so try to reduce the intake of high-calorie and high-fat foods. Eating more foods that are beneficial to digestion and metabolism, such as wax gourd, celery and cold melon, can speed up your slimming process. 2. Make a week's diet plan, so that you can get enough nutrition in these seven days without getting fat. In just seven days, it is easy to stick to it and get twice the result with half the effort. The third stage: after menstruation 14~2 1 day is now a favorable period to lose weight, and it is recommended to keep exercising for more than 6 hours a week. If you don't have time to go to the gym, you can choose skipping as a way to lose weight, jumping more than 200 times every morning and evening, and the effect is very obvious. It is best to use the rest day to go outdoors for long-distance aerobic exercise such as long-distance running and mountain climbing, which is an excellent consumption of fat and heat. Healthy diet: 1. Prepare for the next MC and increase the intake of iron and protein. Eat more high-fiber foods, such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains, whole wheat flour, brown rice, oats and other foods.
