How
to fight with fatness?
Trying
to get rid of the overweight quicker, many go on fasting or take excessive
physical exercises. Meanwhile, this isn’t the best way to grow thin, since it
results in proteolysis of proteins, but not in splitting the fat, which is a
chief reason of overweight. At the same time, metabolic processes start passing
strongly disbalanced.
Specialists assert that fat
accumulation goes gradually and, therefore, the reverse process, fat reducing,
has to go gradually as well. Only long-term tenacity, but not a short-term
energetic breakthrough, leads to success.
The meal we have doesn’t depend
on organism physiological requirements, it depends on emotional and
psychological factors, family traditions and customs.
Obese people are noticed to
respond to a stress situation by increasing their appetite: these people in
general are inclined to eat sweet, fat-containing food.
Very often food becomes a
prerequisite for people to meet each other: free time is filled with feeding.
Cakes, candies, ice-cream being sold in theaters, cinemas or simply in the
street always seduce us. It’s hard to withstand this enticement; to overcome
the psychological barrier, considerable obstinacy is required. Obstinacy is the
first and most necessary condition to fight the fatness.
Physical exercises is the second
important condition. Sport activity is definitely the most efficient way of
energy “burning”, but very often this method, being presumably an affair for
youngsters, is unacceptable for busy people. Microgymnastics, which can be done
even sitting in the armchair, is recommended for elder people instead of active
sport exercises. The main requirement is to remember always about the importance
of regular movement - despite the work you do.
The 3rd condition to
grow thin is to reduce meal calorific value. People are claimed must feed
diversely, following eating stereotype set over the years, but reduce food
caloricity. No natural product harms a healthy man if this product is consumed
in accordance with the organism’ energy release. Thus, it’s necessary to
know chemical composition and calorific value of the meal you are going to eat.
It’s advisable to eat four
times a day (breakfast, lunch, dinner and a cup of milk or kefir tonight). To
hamper appetite, it’s recommended to slowly gulp a glass of cold water every
time before eating. In addition, it’s advised to avoid salt food and consume
products with limited salt content; food has to be chewed slowly and thoroughly.
Feeding process has to last over 15 to 20 minutes. The more the dining time, the
lesser appetite.
Specialists developing this
methodology say that, feeding in such a manner, it’s possible to lose not less
than 2 kg in the first week only. If this didn’t happen, then it’s necessary
to reduce calorific value of the meal again, but no more than by one-fifth.
Don’t try to lose your weight
very quickly! That’s the main advice.
