DIET
Eating less is all about quantity.
Weight loss is above all a metabolism problem related to your hormonal and genetic make-up.
⦁ Exercising is the best way to stabilize your weight, but if you want to lose a pound
of fat, you’ll have to run the equivalent of a marathon!
⦁ What should we restrict from our diet?
There are 3 types of foods that affect your weight:
1. Foods that make you gain weight. Like pastries, pizza, French fries etc.
2. Foods that do not make you gain weight. We can consume these
types of food as often as we would like without worrying about gaining
weight, spinach,cucumber, lettuce, celery etc.
3. Food that can prevent you from losing weight. An apple or
whole wheat bread is very nutritious but they can prevent you
from losing weight. Because, our bodies chronologically burn
carbohydrates/sugars before fats.
If you restrict daily consumption of sugars and fats, your body will be forced to turn
to its other resources for energy, fat, and muscle. Muscle is the
engine that burns calories. And if you have less muscle, you’ll burn fewer calories
and store more fat. The solution is to restrict your daily consumption of simple and
complex sugars and fats but consume high biological protein at the same time to
prevent muscle loss.
