Weight loss? No shortcuts! Eating less is king! My personal experience and anecdotes around me
Wen ‖ Hengdong is diligent
Hey! I am 1.7 meters tall and my weight once soared to 178 pounds. However, in just three months, relying on eating healthy porridge to recuperate, he successfully got rid of 33 catties of meat, and now his weight remains stable at around 145 catties. You may be curious about what is "health porridge"? In fact, it is to put together things that are not nutritious, as if living the hard and simple days of the last century, and completely cut off the "appetite"!
Three years ago, I weighed 175 pounds, although it was not to the extent of that big belly, but it was obviously on the fat side! Coincidentally, my hometown house needed to be repaired, so I soaked in the construction site for two whole months, and I sweated like a scoop every day. At that time, I wondered, don't you have to rely on physical work to lose weight, isn't this a great opportunity? So, my weight loss plan began.
My heart is like a mirror, if you want to lose weight, you have to eat less, there is no excess nutrients in the body, and the weight will naturally fall. But it takes a lot of work to repair the house, so I made careful arrangements for three meals. Breakfast and lunch are eaten normally every day, and two cucumbers are used for dinner, and excess nutrition is resolutely not allowed to stay overnight!
In the first few days, it was really uncomfortable, and I was often hungry in the middle of the night. Once in a dream, I actually dreamed that I was in a street full of delicious food, a fragrant roast chicken in my left hand, a big burger in my right hand, and when I was about to gobble it up, I was actually woken up by myself, the taste is indescribable! But in order to get rid of this fat body, I gritted my teeth and persevered. Slowly, I didn't feel hungry anymore, and even my blood sugar dropped from 8.4 to 5.8, which was a big surprise!
However, after the house was repaired, I returned to my original life track, and I ate oily and delicious meals every day, and in less than a month, I actually gained more than ten pounds. No wonder those who lose weight often say: "It's not difficult to lose weight, it's difficult to persevere, once you return to your original lifestyle, it's ironclad to gain weight!" ”
Once, I met a man selling diet pills on the street, and he swore to me, "If you take my medicine, you will lose 20 pounds a month." I asked him, "What if I don't lose weight?" He was ashamed to say, "Then you should buy a psychological comfort!" "I secretly cry in my heart, this comfort is too expensive!
Four months ago, I felt that something was not quite right with my body, especially the back of my head. After taking a bunch of medicines, it didn't work, and I muttered in my heart, could it be that I have some terminal illness? I was so scared that I hurriedly ran to the hospital for a full body examination, and the results found a bunch of diseases, mainly caused by obesity, eating too much oil, and blocking blood vessels!
How good is that? I'm only in my early 50s, and I can't be dragged down by these diseases. So, I asked the doctor anxiously, and the doctor said calmly: "You have to start with diet, lose weight, less oil and less salt, eat lightly, and then take medicine, there is no big problem!" ”
As soon as I heard this, my heart instantly blossomed, it turned out that it was not a terminal disease, as long as I could lose weight. I have experience in this area, but I have made some adjustments, eat healthy porridge every morning and evening, and eat it normally at noon, after all, the body also has to have some nutritional support, which is the beginning of the good results.
I have a friend named Wu Yu, who is 1.58 meters tall and weighs 152 pounds. In order to become slim, I tried all kinds of massage, cupping, and acupuncture weight loss methods, and spent twenty or thirty thousand yuan in a few years. The weight dropped a little, but it didn't take long for it to rebound back, so over and over again, it made her choke enough!
There is also a colleague named Bai Zhi, a little fat, in order to attract attention when walking on the street, he bought a bunch of bells and whistles diet tea, drank it every day, neither dieting nor exercising, and in the end there was no effect. Once she drank too much weight loss tea, and her legs were weak when she ran to the toilet, but when she weighed herself, she didn't lose any weight, which was really a crime in vain!
There are no shortcuts on the road to weight loss. Just like my cousin Guizhi, I heard my girlfriend say that practicing my belly can lose weight quickly, so I desperately do sit-ups every day. Not only did he not control his diet, but he also ate more because of exercise, but his stomach did not lose weight, but he gained a few pounds, and injured his waist.
My neighbor's eldest brother Chuanxiong, who is 1.75 meters tall and weighs more than 200 pounds, is so tired and out of breath when he does a little work. I heard from my friend that I could lose weight by exercising my legs, so I worked hard to train my legs. Every day, I ate a lot of fish and meat, and I ate sweaty, but after two months, my weight did not drop, but I gained more than ten pounds. When others asked him what was going on, he still said: "My legs are so strong that the scales are crushed, and I can't show that I have lost weight!" ”
In fact, those weight loss methods such as massage, cupping, and acupuncture are just selling you a concept and making you pay an IQ tax, which can't really make you lose weight. The various slimming teas on the market are also making you pay money in vain. As for the methods of leg training and stomach training, in fact, there is no significant effect.
If you really want to lose weight, one thing you have to keep in mind is that fat is not afraid of anything, and you are afraid to eat less. As long as you can keep your mouth shut and keep yourself in a state of hunger, you can slowly lose weight. This hunger pangs are maintained, every day, until you reach your ideal weight, and then it's done.
You have to understand that things that can make you lose weight directly after eating them don't exist in this world at all! I have a classmate Mai Dong, who wants to lose weight, runs to the gym every day, and exercises hard, but he eats nonsense, and he doesn't lose a pound. Alas, as long as Mai Dong can control her mouth, even if she lies down all day, it is possible to lose weight.
