Don't weigh if you want to lose weight
One of the biggest mistakes made when the weight loss program is started is to be constantly weighed. There are those who weigh 2-3 times a day or even during the day. Unless you see that miraculous fall you want, you're desperate. When you start your weight loss program, the body can even resist to start protecting itself, allowing you to gain a few more pounds. This is normal, do not despair immediately and demotive yourself. What you need to do is weigh at most once a month. (for women, this timing should be at the end of menstruation)
Your thinning measure will show itself when you enter your clothes more easily. You do not need to confirm the scale. I have already written that the only way to lose weight is to change your lifestyle (by changing your thoughts and habits). Exercise-supported slimming will bring you the healthiest thinning. When you exercise in the fat burning program, you increase your muscle weight while burning fat. Fat and muscle, which are numerically equivalent, are very different in volume. If you lose a pound of fat and gain a pound of muscle at the same time, the scale tells you that there is no change. And in the face of all this trouble, you may feel sorry for the fact that there is no change by believing in the weighing. However, you have lost at least half a kilo, there has been a physical shrinkage. But a scale cannot distinguish it. Sometimes there are people who have the same weight but one looks almost 1-2 body thinner than the other. This is the result of a different proportion of fat-muscle distribution of these bodies. If your intention is to thin, do not link it to a number. Aim for physical examination, numbers and weighing will always mislead you.
When you lose weight by starving with diet, the scale can show you 5 pounds decrease. But you may not see a body downsizing in yourself. Especially if you don't exercise. You cannot burn fat by not eating, most of the 5 kilos you lose by eating are water and muscle. Their loss will harm your body. Diet, eating two meals a day slows down the metabolism, creates a consciousness of scarcity and allows the body to store more fat. Nutritionists insist on eating 4-5 meals (with healthy, natural foods). Many people decide to eat less on their own and start eating two meals a day and the result is more weight gain.
With fat burning exercise (brisk walking, aerobic, cycling, dancing ...), it burns your stored fat under the skin and your muscles still work and keep your metabolism alive for the rest of the day. The more muscles you have, the faster you burn fat. Therefore, it is very important to do sports. Even if you don't have a weight problem, sport helps you to be protected from diseases and toxins, to stay young and to be cheerful. Exercise is one of the most beautiful addictions that a human being can gain.
If you listen to your body well, focus on it, approach it with love, you can get all the information you need from it. You don't need to learn from a scale that your body is thinner, especially if it gives false information, which it does. You don't need a scale to find out that you're gaining weight.
As a result, if you lose weight without exercising in vain do not be disappointed. You lost both less than the scale and your health. If you see a little weight loss on the scale while doing regular sports, do not disturb your morale. In fact, you guessed you burned excess fat and you will continue to burn. You're also getting healthier. It is best to continue without weighing, feeling the body and understanding the clothes.
