Eating Less Is Not The Answer. 4 Reasons Why.
Most people we see for weight loss are really trying to do the right thing and just not getting anywhere. Some people are eating almost nothing, and still managing to gain weight just by looking at food it seems. It's very frustrating!
1. When you eat less your metabolism slows down, making weight loss more difficult.
2. When you eat less, and stick to "light" foods like salads, without enough protein, you lose muscle mass, which slows down your metabolism.
3. Just having "shakes" from the chemist or supermarket, for meal replacements, don't give lasting benefit, even though you're not eating much, because of the horrendous amount of sugar in them. You may get a result, but it usually doesn't last because your blood sugar gets out of balance. Blood sugar imbalance hinders the weight loss process. 4. Eating less and not moving or exercising means you won't maintain weight loss. Again without exercise, you won't build muscle and raise your metabolism.
What Can You Do? 1. Eat three meals a day as well as morning and afternoon tea. Eat more of the right foods that lead to fat burning, and less of the wrong foods that lead to weight gain. 2. Eat protein with every meal. That would be things like some nuts, meat, fish, chicken, beans like butter or canelini. Baked beans have sugar in the sauce, so best to avoid them. 3. Meal replacements can be helpful, but talk to us about which ones to use. Better still, just plan ahead. It's cheaper. 4. Start moving. Joining a gym isn't always the answer. The best thing you can do is to start walking 40 minutes at a time, four times a week. This gets your heart pumping, is unlikely to cause injury and it's free. Still Need Help?
