People in the know start losing weight for the summer right after the New Year holidays.
But be that as it may, the desire to achieve the desired results should not be more important than your own health.
In an interview with MIR24.TV, dietitian-nutritionist, pediatric endocrinologist Marina Stefanyuk spoke about how to properly lose weight for the summer and when to start.
Healthy weight loss
1. To lose extra weight by summer and not ruin your health, the expert advises losing weight gradually.
It is necessary to abandon drastic restrictions and extreme diets.
2. The diet should include affordable foods, and the methods and goals should be reasonable.
It is important to remember that rapid weight loss often backfires, with the weight returning after the course is completed, sometimes even with a vengeance.
This happens because the body mistakenly perceives weight loss as a stressful situation and begins to store up energy.
As a result, metabolism slows down and the weight doesn’t go away.
That is why it is recommended to follow a smooth transition to a new diet.
3. It is also necessary to ensure that even on a diet the diet should remain balanced.
It is advisable to include vegetables, legumes, cereals and seasonal fruits during this period.
Do not forget that losing weight is unthinkable without physical activity, and it is even better to consult a doctor.
