When it comes to losing weight, we all want it to be fast and effective, and that can lead us to make mistakes that will make this process more complicated.
Find out here the most common mistakes when trying to lose weight.
Go very fast
Losing weight is a slow task, just think how long it took you to have those extra kilos. Wanting to go too fast is an unrealistic expectation that can have consequences like not losing weight, or even gaining weight.
The weight varies from day to day and it takes time to stabilize and begin to lose progressively. Don’t weigh yourself every day expecting to see changes overnight.
Eating less is not always good
The easiest thing to think about when dieting is that just eating less will lose weight. The reality is that this is not always the case. You have to adjust your range of calories consumed according to the process of a healthy diet or eating plan.
If you stop eating what you ate before a single hit, you can cause decompensation and problems to your body such as a change in metabolism, and in the end, not lose weight. Try to eat the same but nutritious and fat-free foods.
Skipping meals
It is not good to stop having breakfast or lunch or dinner with the idea of losing weight. Your body’s metabolism is used to eating at its hours, and stopping eating can cause changes in it, in addition to blood sugar, digestive and even mood problems.
Besides, you will feel hungry hours later and you may overeat. Better eat at your hours but try to change the foods you eat for healthier ones.
Very demanding plan
If you start with a diet or eating plan that demands too much compared to what you are used to, the only thing you will achieve is give it up quickly. The process is like everything in life: Slow and step by step, but so that you can get used to it. Exchanging the cupcakes for celery does not happen overnight, be patient.
Not give permission
We know you want to change, but from time to time it is permissible to commit a small? Sin? within a diet or nutritional plan. Any nutritionist will tell you that a bagel or soda very occasionally will not make you earn what you have lost.
Not exercise
It is essential that, in addition to a diet plan, you follow an exercise regimen that helps you lose those kilos that you want to lose in a healthy way and that also creates a habit in you that will prevent you from gaining weight in the future.
Compare
Turn off the television and stop comparing yourself, first with all those skinny people who advertise miracle products, and second, with all those people who “miraculously” seem to lose pounds in a few weeks.
Each organism is different and you must respect the rhythm of yours. It will be easier for you to achieve your goals and you will feel less depressed with your achievements.
