Weight loss surrounds the inconspicuous number of different myths. There are misconceptions both stupid and frankly harmful. Follow the "Soviets" should not be if you do not want to cause damage to the body. Below is the most common "slimming secrets" that do not work.
Not after 18-00
If you argue yourself with hunger in the evenings, it is definitely we lose weight, but do not do that. First, it is difficult to endure, and, it means that the diet will fall a heavy burden on your shoulders. A person will subconsciously seek to refuse such tight restrictions as early as possible. And on the long "marathon" should not be counting. And this approach is inffective. Secondly, it is worth starting to start again, the weight will come back. Finally, it is difficult to sleep on an empty stomach. A healthy full sleep is an important component of success when weight loss.
There is no point in close the mouth on the castle after 18-00. Instead, give preference to light dinners (best of all proteins with vegetables, such as trout steak with Greek salad) and eat the last time no later than 2-3 hours before sleep. Then - only kefir.
Focus on skim products
By reducing the amount of fat, manufacturers are replaced with sugar, starch and all sorts of useless and even dangerous additives. This is done to improve taste - without fat, many familiar products become fresh. Therefore, skimmed products are often harmful.
Instead, it is necessary to monitor the amount and quality of fats. It is preferable to receive fats from such food as: avocado, seeds and nuts, red and other fatty fish, vegetable oils. These are unsaturated useful fats. They can, but without fanaticism.
Less meal, more sport
Another harmful misconception reads: calories need to be minimized, and the sport, on the contrary, "stem" to the maximum. It is not right. First, hungry diets are dangerous. Yes, to lose weight, it is necessary to reduce the energy value of nutrition. But the daily calorie rate should not fall below 1200-1500 kcal. It can harm health.
Secondly, when you eat little, the body slows down the metabolism. Fat burning processes slow down accordingly. As a result, how much do not train, you can not wait for a quick result. Accordingly, this approach is absolutely meaningless.
Instead, stick to a reasonable deficit (use 150-200 kcal less than your usual daily rate) and observe a healthy balance between food and loads. And in no case do not overload yourself with a sport with a shortage of nutrition, it may not affect health.
No bananas
Almost all cleansing heard that fruits are helpful. But only not bananas! Why such injustice? Bananas are well saturated, useful for the heart and very rich in pectin, which is needed by losing weight. Yes, you can gain weight on bananas if you eat out of 5-7 pieces per day. But from one fruit in the day harm will not be. Nutritionists recommend that there are unrivaled bananas (they are slightly greenish). Their caloric content of only 120 kcal per 100 grams. And in general, than the Green Bananas, the more useful.
Need to drink a lot of liquid
If you have kidney problems, then abundant drink can lead to edema. In addition, you should not "lean" water in the evening. And most importantly - the amount of water depends on your weight. There are no "recommended" 2-3 liters of liquid - this is a myth. A person must consume a day of 30 ml of water for every kilogram of weight. All that is on top is useless.
