You eat once a day, drink green smoothies and count every gram of sugar, but your weight keeps growing?
This is because strict restrictions are a trap. The body perceives the diet as hunger and switches on the "storage" mode.
The first mistake is to give up fats. Without them, vitamins stop being absorbed, the skin dries out, and hormones go crazy. Add nuts, avocados, and olive oil to your diet.
The second mistake is too few calories. If you eat less than 1200 calories a day, your metabolism slows down. Your body will cling to every gram of fat.
The third mistake is ignoring hunger. If you hold out until the evening and then eat a cake, it is not willpower - it is a breakdown. Eat every 3-4 hours, but in small portions.
Correct these mistakes, and in a month you will lose 5 kg without suffering. Remember: the best diet is a life without diets!
But how can you stop being afraid of food? Start with cheat meals — allow yourself your favorite dish once a week. This will reduce stress and speed up your metabolism. And don’t forget about sleep: lack of sleep increases cortisol levels, which causes weight gain.
And also, love your body. Lose weight not for the sake of the number on the scale, but for the sake of health and energy. When you stop fighting with yourself, the extra pounds will go away on their own.
