When we have been struck by the losing weight urgency in our minds, we tend to do stupid things. We didn’t put this weight on our bodies overnight, and we can’t lose it overnight. But that doesn’t stop us from trying, does it?
We do horrible things to lose weight quickly. Forcing ourselves to throw up, skipping meals, or doing crazy pseudo-medicine stuff to ourselves. None of these things work and it’s quite clear why. Our bodies need time to adapt to the weight and they need time to shed it off too. So losing weight safely becomes a really important part of our journey to having a better body and better life. Surgeries aren’t always the answer.
Eat more…?
We don’t mean you should increase your calorie intake, but you should eat more meals during the day. Decrease the calories but instead of 3 meals, have 4 or 5. These meals will be shorter but they will be in shorter intervals. This will prevent snacking and also, keep your metabolism ticking over until it speeds up. So anything you eat in future will be digested quickly and energy is burned quickly too. It keeps your body in good shape and your gut is ultimate, a lot stronger too.
Workout every other day
When you first start working out, you will feel tired after each workout. We don’t blame you. Your body is trying to do things that it hasn’t been asked to do for months or years possibly. So, don’t beat yourself up if you can’t workout every day. This kind of bad-feeling for missing days leads to low morale and eventually, leads to giving up entirely. So workout every other day instead, but stuck it.-
A good fat burner
So many fat burners on the market don’t take into account the need for safety. They just increase your heart rate and metabolism without actually doing it in moderation to your system. That’s because they are usually in pill form or droplets, which hit your system quicker and harder. This kind of healthy fat burner is the better choice. In powder form, you can modulate how much you take. It’s great for those that want more control over their diet regimen for losing weight gradually.
Morning workouts
It’s been proven that morning workouts do actually affect us far better than any other time. Your body is just switching on and thus, is in a state whereby the body will use white fat stores for energy. Your body slows its metabolism when we sleep and takes some time to start using yellow fat. This is why, if you can workout within 1-hour of waking up, you will more effectively lose weight
Heal!
It’s so easy to get injured when you are trying to lose weight. You are already not intaking as many calories, you feel tired, and you are pushing your body in workouts. So if you feel a bit hurt, don’t have ‘power through it’ as your default option. Take the time to heal if you need to.
Losing weight is the primary goal for working out for some of us. But we must not lose ourselves in the pursuit of the goal. Lose weight, but lose it carefully and without risk.
