Revise the diet
On average, the number of calories a person consumes daily is distributed in this way: 40% - fats, 15% - proteins, 45% - carbohydrates, they are used as soda drinks, cakes, jams and are stored as fats. In our diet, vegetables and fruits play a secondary role, although they are the source of minerals and vitamins that the body needs. Water - a useful drink for the body, which is replaced by sweet and alcoholic beverages. And to lose weight, you need to get rid of various bad habits in food.
Eat right, it means eating balanced. Fats in the daily diet should account for 15%, for proteins - 20%, and 50% for calories for carbohydrates.
You need to choose foods that are important and necessary for the body. Preference should be given to potatoes, pasta, dry vegetables, cereals, these products provide energy in the body. Ways of processing are preferable to those in which a minimum of fats are used, it is better to have potatoes in a uniform than french fries. Sugar-containing foods should occupy a very modest place in the diet. Cereals and dried vegetables (peas and so on) do not contain fats, but contain vegetable proteins.
Vegetables and fruits
With each meal, eat fruits and vegetables. The more varied the table of fruits and vegetables, the more you will get the plant fibers, minerals and vitamins necessary for the body to function properly.
Dairy
They are a source of calcium. Contain some vitamins and proteins. Prefer non-fat cottage cheese, yogurt and milk. Avoid using hard cheeses with a high fat content.
A fish
This is the most useful animal product. It contains the same amount of protein as meat. Fish supplies the body with zinc, minerals, proteins and omega-3 fatty acids, they protect the cells. Fish should be eaten at least 3 times a week.
Eggs, sausages and meat
These foods should be eaten with care. Although they supply our body with iron and proteins, but they represent the source of hidden fats. Therefore, nutritionists recommend to include them in the diet not more than three times a week.
Fats
In the last place are the fats in this list. And whatever they are of origin - vegetable or animal, they have a common flaw, they consist of lipids. Our body needs 60 grams of fat a day, but most of the fats we consume in a latent form, that is, with confectionery, cheese, sausages, with meat. Quite enough on the day of 2 tbsp. spoons of vegetable oil and 10 grams of butter, if you are not going to exceed the norm. It's easier to follow these tips and avoid products of the risk group.
Be patient
It's not so easy to lose weight by 10 kg, like 3 kg. Therefore, before you start fighting with excess weight, be patient. There are many diets that offer for 2 weeks to lose those extra pounds. It's real, but at the cost of incredible hardships and efforts that will lead to great stress. And as a result, after several weeks, the same weight drops again.
It is useless to try to lose weight more than one kilogram per week. To the body is accustomed to a new diet, nutritionists are offered to lose weight only half a kilogram per week. If you need to lose more than ten kilograms, you should not flatter yourself, it's a matter of many months. And if you follow dietary rules and take care of your health, you can lose weight.
