The adherents of gyms and apologists of dumbbells shall hate me for
these words. But! It is possible to lose weight without an exercise
load, and I can prove it. Do not get me wrong: exercises and sport are
good for health; they help to keep the figure fit due to the muscles
development and certainly promote losing weight. Nevertheless, weight
loss is possible even for those who (like me) prefer lying on a couch
and dreaming to running at dawn.
There is only one way to lose
weight - eat fewer calories than you spend. Why not go for the simplest
way and limit the calorie intake so that the amount spent on lying is
more than the eaten one? Remember about ancient times, when our
ancestors lived in caves and even could not imagine sofas and the food
was a rare and an unexpected pleasure.
Therefore, at breaks in
feeding the body saves each extra (or not such) calorie in a reserve in
the form of fat, and this mechanism is working so far. If your body is
not getting enough nutrition, it switches on this ancient survival
mechanism and slows down all not very crucial processes, which starts
stocking up the fat for hard days.
Consequently the only way
remaining is to accelerate the process of burning calories, thus
improving the metabolism. How can we do this?
Start your day with breakfast.
The breakfast "launches" your body and your metabolism. If you skip
breakfast, you lose half of a day, during which you could actively burn
calories by digesting breakfast.
Do not forget about sleeping. A tired body cannot function as needed and the metabolism slows down. 7-8 hours of sleep is considered to be sufficient.
Go to a sauna.
When a body has to adjust to the temperature, the metabolism increases.
In addition, while being in a sauna you cleanse from toxins.
Cheat your body.
A weekly consumption of different amounts of calories - more in one
week, less in another - gives an interesting result. Your body does not
understand what is happening, and would not make reserves, even if the
amount calories would fall below the critical point, and would not save
that was superfluous.
Abstain from alcohol. Especially from beer, vodka and liqueurs.
Eat more frequently.
As it was already mentioned, all the processes in an organism require
energy inputs and the digestion of food is not an exception. When we
eat every 2-3 hours, the body burns calories constantly.
Monitor the amount of food eaten.
Nevertheless, we are to mind what we eat and how much (remember to
consume less than to spend). The best method - is to use dessert plates
instead of big ones. The plate is full, and you do not have to remember
the calorie content of each product or to think about the size of
servings.
Eat a "correct" food. Namely - vegetables and
fruits, cereals, lean meat and poultry, dairy products (like your mom
said, do not eat bakery and sweets). During each meal your plate should
look like an autumn landscape - it needs to include all the possible
colors, from green to purple.
In addition, some products have
the additional ability to improve the metabolism. For example,
broccoli, oatmeal, yogurt, apples, pears and grapefruit, fish, lean
meat and poultry, nuts and seeds (especially almonds and pumpkin ones),
pepper (as a spice, especially red pepper), green tea.
Do not categorically ban your favorite delicacy. Forbidden
fruit is sweet, and at some point it will not be possible to stay away
from it, and the whole cake will disappear from the fridge in 5
minutes! Allow yourself from time to time something, without that you
cannot enjoy a life fully.
Drink water. It is recommended
to drink plenty of water during the day. Water helps to cleanse the
body from toxins; in addition we often confuse a feeling of thirst with
a hunger.
Note that the word "diet" was not used in the article
even once, since these principles must become not a temporary means to
lose a few pounds, but a permanent way of life. In this case, you will
be able to maintain your form for many years. As before any change in
diet and lifestyle, you should consult a doctor beforehand.
I have been writing articles for more than two years. But accept the
articles about right lifestyle, correct food and fitness I also keen on
other topics. My last work is business card reader. You can find plenty of useful information and business card reader review on this site.
