It’s deep autumn now, and the weather is getting colder. The pleasant weather makes it the perfect time for “putting on autumn fat.”
If you don’t establish the awareness of losing weight at this time, it may lead to a gradual weight gain, making it more difficult to slim down later.
During the weight loss process, it’s important to find a method that suits you and stick to it to help succeed in slimming down, especially remember the following sentences during the weight loss period:
If you don’t want to put on “autumn fat,” remember these four sentences when eating, and losing weight might be a minor matter:
Not eating staple foods doesn’t lead to weight loss.
There’s a method called the “Atkins Diet,” which involves eating a lot of vegetables and meat. Many young people have tried it and found it very effective.
When the body breaks down fat, it needs to consume the intermediate products of digesting staples. Without staple foods, the body can’t directly break down fat and can only break down muscle. Muscle is dense, has more water content, smaller volume, and higher weight. Losing a tiny bit of muscle weight can reduce a lot of weight, but it’s not good for health. Therefore, instead of completely avoiding staple foods, you can choose to replace rice and flour with potatoes and whole grains.
Don’t eat too well for dinner.
People tend to have overly rich dinners at night, and if feeling hungry before bed, they might have a late-night snack, which can burden the stomach and even affect sleep quality.
If dinner is too rich, it can lead to consuming more oils and fats, gradually causing weight gain, and even make it easier to put on autumn fat, leading to a slow increase in weight.
Drink more milk and less yogurt.
Many women like to drink yogurt because it’s tasty and helps with bowel movements to relieve constipation. However, it’s essential to check the sugar content in yogurt by looking at the ingredients list. A regular cup of yogurt can contain up to 20 grams of sugar, while tastier ones can even reach 40 grams. Instead, replacing yogurt with milk, as milk contains higher nutritional substances.
The nutritional value obtained from drinking milk helps in maintaining a healthy body, aids in replenishing calcium, and prevents osteoporosis.
Don’t use too much oil when stir-frying.
In Chinese cuisine, oil, stir-frying, and deep-frying are common. However, an excessive intake of oil is not conducive to health. Eating too much oil can lead to the accumulation of fat in the body. Those aiming to lose weight should reduce oil consumption.
For example, replacing stir-fried dishes with cold dishes and switching from fried eggs to boiled eggs can help control calorie intake and aid in maintaining a good body shape.
People aiming to lose weight should incorporate four types of “fat-burning vegetables” into their diet. By clearing grease and fats, the effect of slimming down is doubled:
Winter Melon:
Winter melon is a common vegetable in our daily lives, belonging to the category of low-energy, low-fat healthy foods. It contains rich Vitamin C and dietary fiber, helping in weight reduction and slimming down.
Winter melon contains abundant citric acid, which can inhibit the conversion of sugar into fat. It has the effect of weight loss and intestinal cleansing, making it an excellent star for weight loss. Hope you enjoy eating it.
Cucumber:
Cucumbers are rich in dietary fiber, which, when consumed regularly, can accelerate bowel movements, enhance satiety, and eliminate body fat. The Vitamin C in cucumbers boosts immunity, resistance, and aids in reducing excess fat.
Similar to winter melons, cucumbers also contain rich citric acid, which suppresses the conversion of sugar into fat. Regular consumption can expedite fat burning, cleanse the intestines, relieve constipation, and inhibit fat accumulation.
Kelp:
Kelp is rich in dietary fiber, promoting satiety and optimizing intestinal movement to flush out toxins and waste from the body.
The Vitamin C in kelp helps in weight reduction. Eating some kelp appropriately for office workers can enhance immunity and resistance, aiding in discharging toxins and waste from the intestines.
Bean Sprouts:
Bean sprouts have high water content and low calories, aiding in controlling overall calorie intake. They are rich in dietary fiber, helpful in weight loss and fat reduction.
The bean sprouts we all love also contain a high amount of Vitamin C, which, when consumed regularly by office workers, can enhance immunity, promote fat breakdown, and double the slimming effect. During the weight loss process, apart from focusing on diet, it’s crucial to enhance physical exercise, ensuring at least 30 minutes of aerobic exercise daily to facilitate fat burning. Consistency in any form of exercise is essential, avoiding inconsistency and self-neglect.
