Best Tips For Sustainable Weight Loss

HI!! WANNA LOSE SOME WEIGHT???

The internet is full of various weight loss tips most of which are unrealistic and unpractical. So here I list some practical tips for weight reduction.

SET A GOAL WHICH IS REALISTIC- Unrealistic goals of losing 10 kgs in a month will lead you to fad diets which are unhealthy and unsustainable. Set a goal which is real. Weight loss of 2-3 Kgs is considered practical.

STAY AWAY FROM QUICK SOLUTIONS- Don’t go for Fad diets, mono diets, ketogenic diets etc. These diets are not going to solve your problem but instead might create other health complications. Hence go for balanced diet. The key is to reduce the amount of calorie intake to the amount of calories burnt.

CONSULT A DIETICIAN/NUTRITIONIST- Consult a dietician or nutritionist to get a personalized diet plan that suits your needs and lifestyle. This will help to learn in details about the weight loss process, will help you to stay focused and also learn the caloric values of your home dishes and to control your cravings and how to maintain your calorie intake.

Avoid commercially available foods. Opt for homemade foods.

ANTICIPATE PLATEAUS- They are common to all. They occur due to accumulation of water as fat is used up. Increase exercise in this period to help get rid of this water and restart weight reduction.

AVOID A SEPEARATE MENU FOR YOURSELF, instead adapt your dietary needs from the regularly prepared family dishes.

When eating away from home, avoid excesses but do not get upset if you miss your diet plan. Adjust the following day’s menu or the remaining part of the day’s diet to compensate for the occasional excess calorie intake.

Avoid use of appetite depressants and such type of medications. The unnatural practices may do more harm than good.

Include physical activities in your daily regime. Be it running, jogging, cycling, swimming or any outdoor sport you like.

Avoid binging. Your self-determination and mental control will see you through.

MAKE WEIGHT LOSS A HEALTHY AND SUSTAINABLE PROCESS, YOU ARE SURE TO ENJOY IT LIFELONG.
