There are some key rules that every person fighting obesity should know. Get to know them and start building a spirit-worthy body now. Currently, problems associated with being overweight have a large number of people all over the world. Many different nutrition programs have already been created to combat the hated kilograms. Today's article will cover simple methods to combat obesity.
Eat soup
Eating one bowl of soup every day for lunch will help you maintain your weight. Recently, there has been research on this topic. According to their results, women who regularly consume soup cut their calories by 100 calories. Moreover, even using high-calorie food in the future, they do not compensate for this "deficit".
Scientists suggest that water, which is included in various foods, helps food pass more slowly through the stomach. Thanks to this, the feeling of fullness lasts longer. Ordinary water does not possess such properties. Naturally, you should eat low-calorie soups - vegetable, carrot and tomato. This will improve efficiency.
Consider yourself slim
As soon as there is a desire to taste something harmful, but tasty, just think about what all this can turn out to be for your figure. Sit in a chair as comfortable as possible and fantasize about the slimness of your figure. Remember this image and call it up in your memory in those moments when your hand reaches for the chocolate. Psychological methods of dealing with obesity can be as good as physical ones.
Get enough sleep
Scientists have found that frequent sleep deprivation contributes to the accumulation of fat cells in the body. By increasing your sleep time, you can lose a couple of pounds. This is due to the fact that with constant lack of sleep in the body, the content of hormones that stimulate appetite increases. This can certainly lead to weight gain. And, of course, during sleep you will not be tempted by the cookies, beautifully arranged in a vase.
Keep records of your diet
This is especially true for the cold season or moments of extreme fatigue. At such a time, the subconscious mind offers to pamper itself with something tasty. If you keep a diary, writing down all your meals in it, as well as the reason for this, you will be able to control the diet. If the food was taken only for the sake of greater comfort, then a substitute should be found for this, for example, take a bath or watch TV.
Go for walks
The mood can be bad not only because of the cold weather. This is greatly influenced by the lack of light, which is characteristic of cold seasons. Daylight allows the brain to synthesize serotonin, creating a sense of peace and comfort. In case of insufficient production of this hormone, it works exactly the opposite. Try to go outside for a walk more often. This, firstly, will increase the serotonin content in the body, and secondly, you will lose about 70 calories.
Choose your favorite foods for winter
In winter, nature falls asleep, and the human body rebuilds its mode of operation. Prepare a list of dishes and foods that you like best for the summer. Then they should be included in your nutritional program and consumed along with main dishes.
American scientists have found that most men prefer mashed potatoes, pasta and soups in the cold season. Women prefer chocolates and sweets in winter. Although candy and chocolate should be eaten very carefully, eating your favorite foods can be considered effective methods of fighting obesity.
Eat healthy carbohydrates
People who use the Atkins Nutrition Program are often depressed. This is due to the insufficient amount of carbohydrates consumed. This nutrient promotes the synthesis of serotonin, which gives a person a sense of peace. Also, when carbohydrates are consumed, insulin is released, which helps the amino acid compound tryptophan to enter the cells of the brain. Only from your diet should you exclude cookies and white bread, replacing them with bread made from wholemeal flour and whole grains.
Don't get carried away with coffee
You should stay away from coffee with milk as much as possible. A large serving of latte contains about 250 calories. This figure is slightly lower for cappuccino and is 150 calories. The most nutritious food is chocolate with whipped cream - 445 calories. However, not even calories are to blame for weight gain, but the drink itself. It has been found that coffee promotes the accumulation of fat cells in the body. It is best to drink tea that is very low in calories.
Don't forget about sports
In winter, you don't really want to leave the room in the evenings. But you can do physical education at home. Dancing is also good for fat burning. For example, in one hour of salsa, you can burn about 380 calories, and ballroom dancing will "take away" 350 calories.
Eat protein foods
Including tryptophan-containing foods in your diet can help combat psychological hunger. Tryptophan stimulates the synthesis of serotonin, which boosts mood. Tryptophan is found in large quantities in meat, poultry, cheese, nuts, fish, and grains.
Choose spicy foods
Giving preference to Mexican or Indian cuisines, which offer a large selection of spicy dishes, you will speed up the process of burning fat cells. According to the results of the latest research, chili peppers are able to speed up the heart and metabolism by 50%, and this effect will last for three hours after a meal. In addition, spicy food creates a satiety effect.
Eat orange foods
Specialists in color therapy (yes, there is such a one) are sure that the orange color can cheer you up and give an additional boost of energy. It is also important to note that almost all orange foods are low in calories, such as oranges, baked beans, carrots, bell peppers, etc.
Have sex more often
Don't put off sex until later. Only with a strong hug is the production of endorphins increased, which makes a person happy. It should also be noted that having sex burns about 14 calories.
Drink plenty of fluids
Of course, in the cold season, a person loses significantly less water than in summer. However, losses are present and should be replenished. On average, you should drink 6 to 8 glasses of water throughout the day.
