Summer is a good time for weight loss, because the weather is hot, and exercising will be more beneficial for weight loss. Also, in the hot summer weather, you can’t hide your fat, so you have to lose weight. Many people notice a rapid weight loss at the beginning of their weight loss journey, boosting their confidence. However, once the weight reaches a certain point, they may hit a plateau. When losing weight, are you only focused on the number on the scale? These 3 “changes” in your body are also signals of slimming down!
During the weight loss period, if your body undergoes these 3 “changes,” congratulations, you are quietly getting slimmer!
1. Reduced Taste Preference
In summer, we usually have a smaller appetite, and eating something can make us feel full. But many overweight people tend to prefer heavy-flavored foods. If you notice your taste preferences becoming milder during the weight loss process, not craving heavy or greasy foods as before, it’s a sign that your body is slimming down.
2. Thigh Gap Appears
While on a weight loss journey, around the 2nd month, weight loss may slow down. You can check the circumference of your thighs. If you notice a growing gap between your thighs, it’s a signal that you are slimming down. Slimming the thighs is particularly challenging during weight loss; thus, thinner thighs indicate effective weight loss.
3. Easier Exercise
If you are using exercise to lose weight, initially, you may feel very tired. But if you persevere, after about two weeks, you’ll find exercising getting easier, and your body feeling lighter. This indicates that your muscles have been worked out appropriately and your cardiovascular function is improving, signaling the beginning of your slimming journey.
