You started in a diet (or you just decided to be careful) but the results on the scale are waiting… What if it was the fault of our poor slimming habits?
Discouraged at the first gap
That’s it, you finally found the courage to start your diet. Everything was going well, until you cracked for an enticing slice of bread topped with your favorite spread. But this is (above all) not a reason to get discouraged and stop everything! Even nutritionists say: it is important to incorporate moments of pleasure into a diet to be able to follow it in its entirety. Then we’re out of guilt!
Too much to deprive
A classic. In fact, some (bad) regimes encourage it. However, it is by depriving ourselves that the opposite effect is obtained: the body thinks that it is starved and will therefore defend itself by storing everything we eat. Besides, depriving yourself is frustrating and stressful. And that’s when we crack for a snack too greasy and too sweet. To avoid excesses, we avoid starving. The secret is moderation.
Only cardio (or muscle strengthening)
Getting (re) putting to sport to lose weight is a good start. But combining cardio and muscle building is even better. With cardio, you burn fat, and muscular reinforcement allows to ashraful the silhouette. In short, the winning duo to be beautiful, quite simply.
Go shopping hungry
That is the mistake we all make. Because we often go shopping at night, after work, right at the time our belly cries famine. Unfortunately, you understand, it’s a bad idea… Unless you want to rob the department of aperitif cakes and sweets! Otherwise, you are advised to go shopping after eating or after a snack. You’ll be less tempted with a full belly.
Don’t sleep Enough
Our way of life often induces too short and disturbed nights. But be aware that a poor quality sleep also affects the balance: In addition to being bad for health, sleeping poorly tends to make us gain weight. Try to make regular nights and at least seven hours as much as possible.
Weighing every day
It’s the ultimate reflex. And yet it is not necessary. Because weighing daily can lead to unnecessary pressure and stress: depending on our hormones, our transit or what we drank, the figure on the scale can vary from a half kilo to a kilo and a half. If it is important to follow its weight, one weighing per week is enough.
Completely eliminate fat and sugar
When you start a diet, you tend to intuitively eradicate fatty and sweet foods. But there is good and bad fats, as there are good and bad sugars. The good fat allows the body to preserve the vitamins and to promote the transit. It is found among other things in oil-seeds (nuts, hazelnuts, almonds, walnut oil, flax and olive). On the sugar side, we avoid refined sugars that make you fat (soda, industrial food) and put on low glycemic index sugars that are found especially in fruits and vegetables. Once again, it’s all about moderation.
Drink too much smoothies
Smoothies and fruit juices are often thought to be a healthy alternative to sodas and caffeinated beverages… That’s true, to a certain extent! Because smoothies also contain a lot of sugar. If you can consume vegetable juice without moderation (provided it is without additives), you limit the fruit juice to two glasses a day, and you choose it preferably organic and cold pressed (it then retains all its nutrients).
Do not drink enough water
Water is often neglected for the benefit of sodas, juices and other sweet drinks. Error! Water is essential for the proper functioning of our metabolism. In addition, it does not make any fat and does not promote the retention of water. You can only avoid drinking too much during meals, because you may be filling your stomach too quickly, and you will feel satiated to end up nibbling in the afternoon.
Bet only on 0% M.G.
It seems obvious, and yet… In a lightened food, we actually add flavors and additives to compensate for the loss of taste. As a result, they are less nutritionally interesting as their nutritional value is depleted. Don’t let marketing fool you by adopting a 100% light power supply. Eat healthy, natural and in a reasonable amount.
