Have you decided to get in shape now? If you have made such a decision, we are ready to assist you. So what should we do to get started? Let’s take a look at it all together:
- BELIEVE IN YOURSELF
How many times have you said ‘I wish I could do it too, but I can’t’? We are all human and such intentions cross our minds from time to time. But remember, the biggest snag here is YOU. Don’t trust yourself because if you want you can do it!
- IDENTIFY YOUR REASONS TO LOSE WEIGHT
If we don’t know why we want something, it’s not worth getting it. Be positive in your goals. So instead of saying ‘I don’t want to look like this anymore’, send positive statements to yourself like ‘I’ll be healthier and fitter’.
- IDENTIFY WHAT YOU EAT TOO MUCH AND FOR
Identify when, for what, and with whom you eat more. Also, do not forget that; Studies on the fact that emotional disorders are the most valuable cause of eating disorders have increased.
- GET A HABIT TO DRINK WATER
When the body is dehydrated, more than one time hunger is confused with the province. Thirst can slow down metabolism and cause fatigue, poor concentration and forgetfulness. Drinking at least 1.5 liters of water a day will not only keep you full, but also reduce your joint pain, make your internal organs work better and help you get rid of your cellulite problems.
- MAKE EXERCISE A HABITS
It both supports your weight loss process and allows you to lose weight permanently. You should gradually increase your activities. In addition, increasing your activities during the day (eg using the stairs, increasing the walking distance by leaving the car a little farther, etc.) will support you in this process.
HOW CAN WE RESPOND TO SWEET?
Insulin resistance is one of the most common cases we encounter in the society. You can first consult your doctor and get support to see if there is such a health problem.
Sweet consumption can be caused by many reasons; To cope with it, such as tension, excitement and hormonal changes:
- Never skip breakfast,
- Consume carbohydrates and protein foods in small quantities and all day, so you can balance the serotonin hormone.
- Avoid fatty meals and snacks during the day,
- Keep calm and do not make sudden changes in your diet,
- Be planned and determined in your requests. Sometimes small loopholes make you avoid bigger ones.
- Cut down on sugar, caffeine, and white flour, and instead a medium meal made of dried fruit, green tea, and whole grains will be more satisfying.
- Try to focus your attention on different things. About to go for a walk, take a shower, brush teeth.
- Active people think less about food, so they can maintain their weight more easily. Training ensures the release of endorphins, thus minimizing tension.
TO REACH THE MAXIMUM!
- Get help from a nutritionist who understands your desires and tries to bring harmony to your life.
- Take care that the meals you plan are realistic and feasible.
- You can reward yourself with your favorite food in the middle. After all, this is NOT PUNISHMENT, IT IS HEALTHY EATING.
- Eat your meals only at the table and on smaller plates. Focus on your food and enjoy.
- Consuming 1 glass of water before a meal will fill your stomach and increase the feeling of satiety.
- Stop thinking negatively about food. Forget about unhealthy foods and focus only on the healthy and delicious ones.
- Choose easy recipes!
- Don’t be a slave in the kitchen! Don’t stay there for hours, because we all have precious time.
- Feel free to use spices, so you get rid of the monotonous taste of food. For example, you can add basil and lemon juice to your salad instead of oily dressing.
- Shop smart! Prepare a shopping list and be careful not to go beyond it. Going shopping full will increase your compliance with the list.
Losing weight is personal, everyone has their own body structure, life and weight. There is no magic number that everyone should have. Enjoy it while losing weight, enjoy it.
Instead of setting tough goals like I’ll lose 20kg next month, setting smaller and achievable goals will help you get more results. This increases your motivation. This summer, focus on your target weight and decide!
