What I learned about myself losing weight at 25 kilograms

Hello. My name is Sasha and I lost 25 kg. And oddly enough I have to do not have much incentive. You may ask: "And what can generally be incentives?". Well, firstly, it is possible to talk about self-esteem. Depending on your body, it can change. Moreover, to the extent that you feel good about yourself today, and tomorrow already have an aversion. Secondly, this opinion of you others. No matter how we tried to be self-sufficient and to listen only to themselves, but do not fool yourself, and we really depend on what we say about the surrounding. Thirdly, it is a health problem. And it also has a huge impact on changing your lifestyle. When you notice that on the second floor you have to climb shortness of breath, you come up with the idea that time would have to change something. The most interesting thing is that people can not ignore it for weeks, months, years, and being in your comfort zone is not to try to change something. And then, bam, and at one point he realizes. Here they are - the most important incentives.

I'll be back to the topic. I did not have any incentive. I wanted to lose weight, but not too much. Of course, if I had to just pick up and bring your body in perfect condition in a moment, I would agree. But for something to do? Pfft, I'm too cool for this shit. But ended the academic year at the university, I had a lot of free time and I knew I wanted something new. I guess I just needed to do something time.

So I started to run. Having decided that you need to give all running at full speed, I decided it was not in vain, many athletes, even in summer run in a jacket with a hood and even Rocky Balboa was not averse to this method. In general, I have decided that in the 33 degree heat I will certainly run in a jacket with a hood to get a better sweat! The result did not take long and I got heat stroke with all its consequences.

But, oddly enough, it is not otbavilo my desire to run, but on the contrary - I rushed into the fray with renewed energy the next day. I started to combine cardio (jogging) and strength training in the gym. Looking back, I honestly can not understand how I was able to achieve results, because, basically, I did everything on a whim, without going into too much theory. Later, I changed my mind about jogging and prefer him to interval running, but more on that next time.

About a month later, when it appeared the first results, I decided what to do and their power. Here in the case has already gone theory. I began to study the various sites, techniques and diet, but just came across information that all diets are a complete slag and if I really want to lose weight and regain a single gram of extra weight, I have to completely rethink the whole concept of his power. So I began to eat in a new way. Fractional meals, separation of carbohydrates and protein, reduced fat, generally all the basic principles of good nutrition. The only rule that comes out of the concept of healthy eating, and I stuck to was the fact that I allowed myself to eat for breakfast is all I want. Later I changed this principle is another principle - cheat meal.

And in order to bring some really useful, practical information, I will write a few key messages that I believe will allow correctly lose excess weight:

1. Do not hurry. Diets that allow you to lose 15 kilos in a month can actually do this, but it is fraught with very bad consequences for your health.

2. Do you want to eat more - more engaged. If you are missing your daily diet composed - add any activity (jogging, swimming, fitness, sports walking, yoga), calculate the number of calories expended on this activity and add the same amount as a daily diet.

3. Do not forget about protein. It is not necessary to eat only gruel, fruit and vegetables. Protein is very important for your body to neglect it.

4. Break your diet for 5-6 small meals every 2.5-3 hours. This will allow you to make a clear timetable in power, and will not overload your digestive system.

5. Drink plenty of water. Tea - it's not water, coffee - it's not water, juice - it's not the water. 30-35 ml per kilogram will be just body weight.

6. Forget the diet. If you really want to lose weight, improve their health, and never hear the phrase in his address: "A good man should be a lot" - you should forever and ever revise its meals and never go back to old habits.

These basic principles will allow you to slowly, without much trouble, to lose weight. In the next article I will discuss in more detail on nutrition and try to describe in detail all the principles which I adhere.

Well, back to the main topic of the article, by the end of summer the result was that - minus 25 kilograms of excess weight, plus 25 to the self-esteem and the various questions like: "Why are you so thin! You are not sick? ". No, I did not get sick. I finally recovered.
