Weight Loss Week 2
Week 1 is over and you did it. Yes you may have made mistakes, you may have had a day or two that you messed up and didn’t track or get your water in but for the most part you did what you needed to. Yes you spent a lot of time in the bathroom but again that is you getting rid of the excess weight and washing it away with the extra water you drank. You’ve written things down or taken pictures so you now know what you are putting into your body that might be a problem. This week is about making a cut to your calories and picking something that you can adjust or live without.

Weight Loss Week 1
So you want to lose weight that you actually keep off, great decision on your part. Weight loss can be difficult for some and easy for others. The part that isn’t easy is the maintenance with weight loss. We’ve seen the people who’ve dropped so much weight and look fabulous. I’ve been one of them. I’ve lost 100lbs before, 40lbs, 50lbs, and other lesser amounts. The problem is I haven’t been able to maintain the loss because as soon as the diet is over I go back to old habits. You’ve heard it’s a lifestyle, you’ve heard to make small livable changes, and you’ve heard to make realistic goals. These are all true. You are not going to drop your roll right on the ground after a week of doing things the “healthy way”. It doesn’t work that way. I’m starting again but this time I’m starting with making changes slowly so I can adapt to them and make them a long term habit so this time I can keep the weight off permanently. If this is your first week then this week we are going to start with 2 things. You are going to start writing down what you eat and drinking water. Not water with coffee, not water in your Kool aid, and not water in your diet coke. You need real actual water and you need to know what you are putting in your body so you can make adjustments that still allow you to live but drop the excess.

How to lose weight fast?
Exercise 5 times a week For us non-professional athletes, the purpose of our exercise is to lose fat and get a strong body, so we don't need to be bored in the gym every day, only need to exercise about 5 times a week, it is enough affect the body. If you exercise too little, it will be like three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, and you will not get good results. If you exercise every day, the body will not be able to bear it, but it will have the consequences of poor recovery and decreased metabolism. Therefore, it is best to exercise 5 times a week and give yourself a rest period around Wednesday and Sunday. Reduce the number of weighings Don't always focus on the scale, the level of weight is meaningless, because it can't directly measure the amount of fat. As long as we follow the plan every day, give the body enough time to digest and improve, and then go to the weighing after a month or two, you will find that the weight loss is certain. Keeping a high heart rate helps you lose weight Have you heard that kissing, hugging and other intimate behaviors can help you lose weight? This is not an illusion, but a reality. Because the body can use a lot of energy because of the increased heart rate, whether it is intimacy or high-intensity exercise, you can effectively lose weight. Those who claim that low-intensity aerobics and jogging can lose weight are just consuming muscle, not losing weight. We can choose high-intensity training, such as skipping rope, HIIT, and variable-speed running, to quickly increase our heart rate and achieve fat-burning effects. The reason why it is important to do a good job in diet management is that the only way to consume calories is through diet. As long as you control your calorie intake, your body will be under your own control. However, diet control does not mean unrestricted dieting. The calorie intake caused by dieting is seriously insufficient, which will continuously consume your muscle mass and affect emotional fluctuations. The body obtained in this way is not good-looking. A good diet means to control a reasonable calorie intake, as long as it meets the body's daily consumption needs, and do not consume too much extra calories. If I am building muscle, I need to increase my intake and give my muscles enough calories, such as increasing 300 calories, consuming 2700 calories per day, supplementing protein, and maintaining a low-fat diet, which can promote muscle synthesis and is not easy to synthesize. Fat. If I am losing fat, I need to reduce calories reasonably, reduce 400 calories, and eat about 2000 calories per day, which can promote fat consumption and prevent a lot of muscle loss. In this calorie range, whether you eat fried foods, high-sugar foods or healthy foods, you can lose weight. However, to get in good shape, you need a lot of protein to help you lose fat, not weight. During the period of properly motivating yourself to lose fat, the low-calorie diet will have a certain negative impact on your emotions, and it will also reduce the body's metabolic capacity. In order for the body to achieve a state of high metabolism and efficient fat loss, we need to adjust the calories of our diet every once in a while, which is what we often call cheat meals. People's living standards have indeed improved, especially in terms of diet, there are basically no restrictions. As long as you want to eat, you can buy it anytime, even if it is not seasonal food, major supermarkets also sell it. Such superior dietary conditions will also bring a lot of distress to people. Usually, they do not pay too much attention to the dietary structure and control the total calories of the diet, which will lead to the problem of excessive calorie intake, and excess nutrition will lead to obesity. Therefore, when losing weight, diet control is definitely the first condition. Only by keeping your mouth shut will all subsequent weight loss work be more meaningful. How to keep your mouth shut is not to stop eating completely. It is absolutely not advisable to lose weight by fasting. You should eat every day to ensure that you will not be hungry, and you must also control the total calories. Which foods can satisfy such a condition? Of course, vegetables and whole grains. Vegetables contain various vitamins, minerals and the carbohydrates we need. In addition, whole grains can replace the staple food we usually eat to supplement dietary fiber, and it is easy to make people feel full. The diet structure of three meals a day basically meets these two conditions, control the calorie of the food, and ensure that the diet is light. Exercise: As a loser, you must choose a sport you like, and do warm-up activities before exercising, which can increase the temperature of the muscles, make the muscles more resilient, and will not be prone to being strained. When exercising formally, you should also pay attention to the intensity and duration of exercise. It is generally recommended to stick to aerobic exercise for more than 30 minutes, which is more conducive to mobilizing body fat into energy and achieving the purpose of burning fat. After the exercise, it is necessary to carry out lifting activities, which is also to avoid the phenomenon of muscular development, which is more conducive to ensuring that the exercise can shape the body. Walking: People with a large body weight can achieve good exercise effects through walking. Walking fast can improve the balance performance of the limbs. Walking is an aerobic exercise that can effectively improve cardiopulmonary function. Here it is recommended to perform walking training about 3 times a week, and each time is not less than 35 minutes. I don't recommend running for heavyweight people, because even jogging puts a lot of pressure on the knees, about 7 times their body weight. There are also cases around me who lost weight through running, and although they lost weight, they had problems with their knees. I hope everyone will not gamble with their own bodies and achieve scientific weight loss. Spinning/cycling Spinning or cycling can build lower body strength and overall endurance. Both are periodic aerobic exercise and consume more calories. At the same time, because the spinning or riding is sitting on the seat (heavy weight is not recommended for cycling classes standing all the way), your whole body weight will not be placed on your legs, and your knees will not be under excessive pressure. When exercising, keep the speed as constant as possible for as long as possible. If you feel that the training is too easy, you can increase the resistance. Swimming Swimming is also an exercise that is very suitable for losing weight because people float on the water and their knees do not directly bear gravity. And water buoyancy can help you share 90% of the pressure of your body weight, and the resistance of water is 12 times that of air. If you can't swim, try jogging in the water. Different from running on land, we only need to bear 10% of our body weight in water, so the pressure on the knees is not large, which can effectively avoid excessive damage to the knees. Mat/sitting exercises (mostly strength exercises) such as Pilates, sitting dumbbell exercises, etc., but be sure to avoid those movements that require standing and jumping. Proper strength training can improve muscle mass and increase basal metabolism.

How to lose weight quickly and efficiently?
6 quick weight loss tips First, insist on doing sit-ups We all know that sit-ups are a very effective exercise for slimming the belly. When doing this exercise, it can not only make the fat on our waist more firm, but also promote the movement of our body and stomach, and make our joke system become smoother. In this case, we consume it every day. Some of the food, or toxins can be quickly excreted. Do more than ten minutes of sit-ups every night before going to bed, and you'll see results in a week. Second, turn the hula hoop. Everyone is very familiar with the hula hoop. Because the sport of hula hoop can be said to be a memory of our childhood. When we were young, our favorite thing was to hula hoop competition with others. For many friends who want to lose weight, long hula hoop is just a very simple and effective method. In the process of turning the hula hoop, we can quickly burn the fat in our body. If you insist on turning the hula hoop for more than ten minutes every day, after a week, you will be able to see that you have the effect of losing weight. Third, insist on taking vitamin D to assist weight loss Xiaobian, I suggest that you can go to the pharmacy to buy vitamin D to supplement our body, because vitamin D contains a leptin element, which can control our daily appetite and reduce our appetite. intake of food. In the process of losing weight, if there is vitamin D to assist, the effect of weight loss will be more obvious. Fourth, drinking five cups of green tea a day is not only necessary to learn to drink water, but also to learn to drink tea. You might as well try it and drink five cups of green tea every day. These five cups of green tea do not mean to drink it all at once, but to drink it in five stages during the day. Drinking green tea regularly every day can help us reduce fat accumulation and also help us burn fat. But not everyone likes green tea very much. If you feel that five cups of green tea is not suitable for you, you can try to drink from two cups first, and gradually get familiar with the taste of green tea, and then increase the amount. Fifth, stop and walk more Many students or office workers now sit on stools or slump on the sofa all day long. In fact, this behavior is often one of the reasons for your obesity. You can tell me that if you sit on a stool for more than eight hours a day, you have to stand up. Get up and walk for at least five minutes every hour. When you get off work, or when you get out of class, go for a walk in an open space. Of course, the best way is to jog. Sixth, learn to refuse the warm invitations from friends or colleagues who are always indispensable in our daily life, inviting us to eat delicious food, desserts, and supper! In the face of these many temptations, we must also learn to refuse.

How to lose weight healthily?
Laxatives, I guess it's too late for me to answer. Many gods have already answered them. Looking at the answers of the gods, they are very correct. To lose weight, the first thing is determination and perseverance! I also want to share my own energy to lose weight... (do not recommend any products, do not advertise) I am a male, 30 this year, 174 in height, and currently weighs 134, which is fairly well-proportioned. I once had a car accident and broke my leg. I was in the hospital for more than a month, I was beaten with a bottle for more than a month, and I was at home for nearly a year. At that time, the weight was huge! From 160+ Biao to 180+, after my legs were almost healed, I opened a fried chicken and milk tea shop. Because of the store, I deal with high-calorie things such as oil smoke, fried chicken, and milk tea every day, and the shop is only 15 Ping, my activity space is very small, and I can't walk a few steps a day. In order to make money, I stay up late until the early morning every day, and then I am hungry after work, so I go to find late-night snacks at night, such as fried pancakes, hot pot, barbecue, my favorite! Paired with the milk tea in my store, it is refreshing to eat every night. Then the distress also followed. Within a year of opening the store, the weight soared from 180+ to 200+! ! ! In the second year of opening the store, I weighed 220+... Honestly, I was not ugly at the time, but because of my obesity, I felt so ugly, and I felt that if I were a woman, I would not look down on myself. Ha ha. I also had the idea of losing weight. I bought orlistat capsules with a lot of money (not very recommended), bought a course of treatment, and then gave me pain every day. Every day I almost became a jet fighter. Oil, sometimes I'm frying chicken, I feel like I'm sweating! The most painful thing is that I don’t dare to fart every day, because I don’t know if I want to put it, whether it’s a fart or an oil with oil... When I first took orlistat, my fart gave me a trouser pocket with oil. The Ollie gave it, and then... the buttocks of the pants were full of oil, I quickly closed the store and ran home, took a shower, and threw the pants directly, which was very embarrassing... But I have to use orlistat capsules Whether there is an effect or not, I can only say that the effect is a little bit. After a course of treatment, I only lost a few kilograms. I was still on a deliberate diet, and I didn’t eat dinner. But it pulled too hard. Therefore, people who are busy with work are not recommended to take orlistat capsules to lose weight. Fart bang oil! Later, I bought a fat-removing machine and a fat-reducing device, but it didn't work, it was just an IQ tax. During the opening of the store, I once thought that it was like this, and there was nothing to reduce. Until I met a customer, a man, very handsome. When chatting in my shop, when talking about losing weight, he said he was fatter than me before. Almost 240 pounds, chasing girls, girls are unwilling. He also showed me his previous photos, it was really fat! Because he was fat and couldn't catch up with girls, he made up his mind to lose weight, but he lost dozens of pounds abruptly. After losing weight, he was handsome and married. I was shocked, how did you lose weight, buddy? He told me to exercise, stick to it. It took him a year to lose weight. I made up my mind to lose weight because I couldn't stand it anymore. The first thing people around me said when they saw me was: Why are you getting fat again? ... The physical problems caused by obesity are gradually becoming more and more serious. I will not say much about the distress of obesity. I talked about my weight loss. One day before I wanted to lose weight, I was on Douyin, and I saw that it said that men must be self-disciplined, control their desires, and cooperate with the infuriating BGM, which made me determined and resolute. Push yourself! That night, I searched for various ways to lose weight on Douyin. There are advertisements, recipes, and equipment to buy, but the most important thing is to exercise. I just searched for a few exercise videos of weight loss experts. Favorite, like, save. Does it sound a little familiar? Are many friends just stuck at this step? ——The collection never stops and the action never starts? Ha ha. I used to be like that too. But I tell you a method, and then it becomes very simple to act. Find yourself a reason to act first! The reason I found for myself was - try it first, anyway, it's okay to be idle, and it's not bad for me to do anything. Get yourself moving! The movements are not difficult, they are all performed indoors, nothing more than jumping, jumping, raising the knees and the like. So the first day of exercise began. To be honest, I have not exercised for a long time. On the first day, I just practiced two or three sets, and I was panting like a pig. I was tired! Sweat like rain. A little stuck. But think about the distress of being fat! Think of yourself as a man! It's a man! Grit your teeth! Tolerate! practice! In this way, relying on a will, forcibly forced myself to finish the practice. However, the interim process is relatively long. I found that after exercising, sweating all over, doing some stretching, and taking a bath, I still feel very comfortable, and it is very comfortable to lie in bed. However, the next day, my whole body was in huge pain! I believe that many of my friends have such times, right? The arms are not arms, the legs are not legs, and the muscles all over the body are sore. Then how do you practice? The next night I found another reason for myself to reduce the amount first, but I couldn't stop. Then I did half the amount of the first day, and found that when I did the exercise, the muscles in my body didn't hurt that much. This lasted for about 5 days. On the 3rd day, I exercised according to the original amount. Most of them were enduring the pain. I couldn’t grasp any standard posture. So during this period, I didn’t know whether I lost weight or not. Anyway, I just practice first and act first. On the 6th day, I almost didn't insist, because my whole body was in severe pain, and I was a little dizzy and uncomfortable that day, so I didn't want to move. Then when I swiped Douyin, I swiped an inspirational video again, which was still infuriating. Then I got up again and did some exercise. That day, I was more tired than the previous 5 days of exercise. Not only did my whole body hurt, but I had no energy at all. I was lying on the bed and didn't want to move like the mud. So I gave birth to an idea that I didn't want to persist, and wanted to find a shortcut. Then go to Taobao, Zhihu, Xiaohongshu, and find shortcuts to lose weight. After reading a lot, I found that some products that were praised as gods were eventually rejected by some platforms and evaluations, and I didn’t want to spend money. Then when I went to the bathroom, I looked in the mirror and found that I was sweating profusely, and my hair was soaked in sweat. I was still handsome. I took a selfie in the mirror, fuck! so ugly! It's so ugly to be fat! But I suddenly had a plan! After exercising every night, I take a selfie of my whole body in front of the mirror, like punching a card every day, persevering to see how far I can get in the end. Then I marked a spot on the mirror, and after exercising every day, I would take a selfie with myself facing this spot. In fact, in the early stage, you will find that there is no change in body shape at all, but I like to see my sweaty appearance. I feel that I am on the road to becoming better, I want to quietly become better, and then amaze everyone! It is with this belief that I persisted for a month. After this month, I fell in love with the refreshing feeling of sweating profusely after exercising and the refreshing feeling of taking a shower. It's just that I sweat a lot every day, and I found that I haven't lost too much weight. I have lost seven or eight pounds, but my body has only lost a little bit of weight. Feeling a little disappointed? I felt the same way at the time. I felt that I had worked hard for a month and nothing had changed. I checked and found that in fact, people who lose weight in the early days of exercise are all water, and those who are really lean and fat are consuming more calories than they consume in their diets. After a month, although I haven't changed much, my perseverance and endurance have gone up! Important! There has been a change in my spirit, and the change in spirit is also very important. I began to pay attention to my appearance and became more diligent. I used to lie in bed when I came home from get off work, and I changed my clothes every two or three days, and I accumulated clothes for a week. Throw it in the washing machine. That month, I went home to exercise every night, and then I was soaked all over, so I washed my clothes that night, and started putting on a mask to clean the house. He is no longer the lazy fat man he used to be! Therefore, the first week and the first month of exercising to lose weight are very important. Don’t give up because of muscle soreness in the first week. Don’t give up because there is no change in the first month. If you give up, everything will be zero. Since there was no change in the first month, starting the second month, I increased the amount for myself. Before doing one set, I did three sets. However, it was also found that the degree of fatigue was not much after three sets, but the amount of sweating increased. I still take selfies in the mirror every night. I really found that, starting from the second month, the body shape began to change significantly. You can compare the previous selfies and you will find that there is really a big change. Tighten, silently, you will find that your pants are more and more easy to forget. My trousers are thin ropes, and I found that the rope on the waistband needs to be tighter and tighter, otherwise the trousers will always fall off. In this way, increase the amount of exercise appropriately every month, stick to it for 5-6 months, and you will be amazed by yourself once! Then go back and make a quick photo collection from your daily selfies, just like a quick slideshow, you will be pleasantly surprised to find that your figure has changed dramatically! In about half a year, you can buy clothes again, because it is really the clothes from the past, and they are not worthy of the current you! It's been almost a year since I started exercising on the first day, and I've gotten into the habit of going home and exercising every night. This is my first time to answer a question seriously on Zhihu, because this is my achievement and I am very proud, so I am happy to answer this question. It's just that the writing is poor, and I want to be as detailed as possible. Maybe many friends will ask me what kind of exercise I do, what I eat, whether I drink, and whether I have been lazy during the year. I want to say that any kind of exercise, as long as you think it suits you, the key is to get yourself moving first. Once you start, you will succeed, and it is never too late. If you want to talk about the difficulty, it should be more difficult for me than most fat people, because I said at the beginning, I once had a car accident, and the fibula of my right calf could not heal forever. Until now, I do After exercising, my right calf is swollen and often painful. But even under such circumstances, I still persevered and became a habit. As for what to eat, whether to drink, whether to be lazy, etc. In fact, during this process, I deliberately avoided drinking as much as possible, and I didn't control myself too much, just eat this aspect, don't eat too much A lot of fried chicken, burgers, fries, etc. are fried. You can eat them occasionally, but not too much. Just eat when you’re full, don’t overeat, just indulge occasionally. If I drink alcohol, I have been drinking it all the time. In the early days, I strictly demanded myself and pushed 90% of the wine bureau as much as possible. My reason was that I had a stomach ulcer (this reason is suitable for all people who don’t want to drink, no one Dare to persuade you to drink! As for how long you need to keep it, you can decide, haha). Sometimes when I get drunk, I stop exercising. This is laziness. I also don’t have any fat-reducing meals or meal replacements that I can eat. What I can do is to reduce high-oily meals as much as possible, avoid snacks, avoid cola, and put an end to late-night snacks. The rest is really nothing special. If you want to speed up, you can really eat some bland food. Be a monk or nun for a month or two, and only eat vegetarian food. However, everyone's weight loss road will be too painful and difficult. stick to it. So I still recommend a normal and reasonable diet, plus exercise. Having said so much, I just really want to share my personal weight loss experience. Of course, what the great gods said is also correct. I think it is really important for a person to persist in doing a few things in his life. Sometimes, if you don’t force yourself, you will never know how good you are or how great your potential can be. Finally, I wish the chubby paper friends, take action and lose weight as soon as possible, and each of them will become a radiant lightning! come on!

The Big Picture of Lengthy Initial Weight Loss
The vast majority of people who read my articles and digital books know me as a science fellow who likes to statement studies and apply exploration to ordinary issues like weight reduction, working out, and other wellbeing/wellness related points. Nonetheless, now and again you need to move away from the science and take a gander at the 10,000 foot view to assist with bringing individuals back into concentrate, so they can appreciate the big picture, in a manner of speaking.
