1, specific analysis
(1) The purpose of losing weight during menstruation is actually that women use a particularity of this period to achieve the effect of losing weight in different periods. Some experts believe that women's hormones fluctuate greatly during menstruation and fat burns faster. In the last two days of menstruation, the body's ability to break down fat is much higher than usual. Is menstrual weight loss effective? If women seize this opportunity, it is easy to lose weight.
(2) Women who lose weight during menstruation can help burn body fat, especially waist and abdomen fat, through proper exercise. If physical conditions permit, you can do simple yoga for 20 minutes, or you can choose to walk quickly, which can accelerate the burning of body fat. One week after the menstrual period, you need to do aerobic exercise for more than half an hour every day. Stick to it, and the weight loss effect will be obvious.
(3) During menstruation, female friends disapprove of strenuous exercise or dieting to lose weight. As we all know, menstruation comes, the body's resistance is poor, and some MM will have a stomachache and a bad temper. At this time, it will cause harm to the body and lead to irregular menstruation.
2, menstrual period will be fat.
(1) First of all, the menstrual cycle itself will not bring a lot of energy consumption. Even if the body temperature rises by 0.3-0.5℃ after ovulation, it can only increase the energy consumption of dozens of calories in luteal phase (the basal metabolic rate will increase by about 1℃ every time the body temperature rises), not to mention in the period of low body temperature.
(2) This is because before menstruation, the progesterone level rises, the water retention in the body increases, the breasts become larger, and the endometrium thickens, leading to weight gain. After menstruation, the hormone level decreases, the breasts become smaller, and at the same time, the endometrium and menstrual blood are discharged, and water will also be lost. Weight loss during this period will make up for the weight gain caused by eating, so there will be the illusion that eating is not fat.
3, menstrual diet
(1) Foods rich in high-quality protein, iron and vitamins, lean meat, fish and eggs are all good choices. They are all important hematopoietic substances to make up for menstrual blood loss.
(2) Slow digestion of staple food. For example, black rice, black beans and miscellaneous grains porridge, brown sugar tortillas, jujube oatmeal porridge and so on. They are all good choices, providing rich B vitamins, which is conducive to relieving menstrual mood.
(3) Eat enough vegetables and fruits at room temperature or after soaking in warm water. Make sure to provide enough vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber to prevent constipation that may be caused by hormonal changes.
(4) controlling salt and sugar. Water stays in the body during menstruation. If you eat too much salt, it will aggravate the situation of detention and make the pores bulky. Sugar control is to avoid drastic fluctuations in blood sugar. Replacing sweets with foods with appropriate natural sweetness, such as jujube and raisins, can also help supplement iron.
(5) If there is no special discomfort during menstruation, we should also adhere to moderate exercise, such as brisk walking and jogging.

However, we should pay attention to the intensity and time of exercise and don't make ourselves too tired.
