There is a wedding on the corner and you want to look your best? Every day you look at your favourite pair of denim that you no more fit into but wish to adorn one day.
Well, now it’s time to LIVE your dream and turn your wish into reality. With some effort and small lifestyle changes, you can easily shed those bulging extra kilos that overshadow your gorgeous self. A dream remains a dream until DAY 1.
Avoid Empty Calories
Sugars, processed foods, and junk are major sources of empty calories that do more harm than good. It’s important to take muscle-building protein-rich foods like eggs, lentils, and meat.
People desperate to lose weight go for a carb-free lifestyle following fad diets promising to lose 10 kg in 10 days which is mostly water weight. One simply cannot 100% avoid carbs because it leads to binge eating and the weight loss comes back.
It’s better to change your lifestyle than your diet so that weight loss remains off forever. Simply consume brown bread instead of white bread; Brown pasta in place of white pasta and don’t miss out on your favourite flavours.
Drink Water and lots of it.
Research suggests that water is the only component that helps in losing weight. It is advisable to drink at least a glass of water before every meal so that your stomach feels full and you go for a calorie deficit. Drinking more water and eating smaller portions is the main mechanism behind weight loss. Having more water detoxifies your body and flushes out toxins leaving you with glowy skin. You should drink at least 2 litres of water to stay healthy and hydrated, particularly in the summer.
Eat More Lose More
Incorporating greens in your diet gives a fiber boost to your body as they take more time to digest than processed foods hence leaving you full for longer periods of time.
The more you eat natural foods, like fresh green vegetables and nature’s candy (fruits), the more they help in shedding off those extra pounds.
A guilt-free treat of fat-free Greek yogurt with bananas will only make 100 calories whereas one biscuit leaves you with around 357 calories!
Exercise
Are you shy about your love handles? Broad arms and bulged-out tummy?
This is the answer. A few minutes of brisk walking and a cardio workout will speed up your weight loss doing wonders for your body.
Jumping ropes, squats, crunches and, a few seconds of the plank will shape your already beautiful self without needing to hit the gym in such busy and inflated times.
Introduce Himalayan Pink Salt
Salt is a major component of our diets. Himalayan pink salt has its own share of benefits and tremendously helps in weight loss. Pink salt does not retain water like regular table salt. It maintains our pH levels, blood sugar and blood pressure.
It’s advisable for patients with hypertension and diabetes to use pink salt/sea salt in their diets.
To Sum it Up
Obesity is a disease and should be treated as such. We should lose weight not only to improve our personalities, but in essence, to maintain healthy and active bodies for ourselves and the people around us.The above mentioned steps can easily be inculcated in our lives.
