Lose weight without a long-term plan
Losing weight without a plan doesn’t make sense. “A plan is needed to ensure that the lost weight is not regained, especially for the time after dieting,” says nutritionist Lia Bally (34).
Avoid professional care if you have a chronic illness
For people with health problems (eg diabetes or high blood pressure)
diets should be done under the supervision of a doctor. Lia Bally: «Often drugs need to be changed
adjusted and blood values checked.» Otherwise it can
unwanted side effects and deficiency symptoms.
Don’t do strength training
It is important to keep the muscles active. If you don’t do strength training, you’ll lose muscle too. Then about 25 percent of the weight lost is muscle. The body can get used to what is harmful.
Set unrealistic goals
Too high goals and expectations are an obstacle to weight loss.
Losing weight takes time and perseverance. According to Bally, the person is realistic.
A daily calorie deficit is about half a kilo of 500 calories per week, so
Losing weight varies from person to person and the curve is not flat
simple.
Eat small amounts of nutritious food
If you want to lose weight, you must not only pay attention to the number of calories, but also consume better foods. Good sources of fats and protein are important. But also healthy carbohydrates that keep you full for a long time.
