15 Myths about weight loss - part III

Here is the final part of the promised 15 myths about weight loss. I hope you've enjoyed them and learnt something new. ;)

11. It is enough not to eat after 18 h. False! diet, put weight, extra kilos
Of course, if you work until 5 in the evening and then you go home till 6 o'clock, this rule can be kept very easily. But if you come home no earlier than 8 o'clock, what would you do? Stay hungry? No. The rule is simple - have dinner at least 3-4 hours before going to bed.

12. It's a holiday! I can let myself have some more food. Impossible!
Avoid any celebrations when you're on a diet, because it could have catastrophic consequences on you. "Just a bit" will hardly stop you from eating more and more. Not only that you will return the old kilos, but you will likely to put some more weight.

13. If in your family almost everyone is fat, you will never be thin! False! diet, put weight, extra kilos, lose weight, weight loss, proatcol
Well, partially this is true. But it's up to you not to reach their kilograms. You have to restrict the quantity of food you take every day and you won't become like your relatives.

14. The cellulite disappears along with the extra kilos. False!
This could happen only if along with diet you undertake something to deal with the cellulite itself. Very often "the orange peel" appears exactly on thin thighs.

15. Eat as less as you can. False! proactol
The human organism easily gets rid of only unnecessary kilos. Otherwise, if you feel hunger, your body will discard all the nutritious substances from it to create fat reserves. The work of your heart will slow a bit and pressure and muscle tone will decrease. So you'll begin to sleep more and move less which automatically leads to gaining weight. So don't try to eat nothing during the day. It's not good for you!

I hope all these myths help you find your way to losing weight without starving or believing in deceiving things.

Good luck! weight loss, losing weight, kilos, diet, myths, put weight, gain weight, proatol

15 Myths about weight loss - part II

Here is the continual of the previous article about what people think it is good for them when it comes to diet. They don't know that all these things are bad for their health, that they are just myths!

6. Taking laxatives has two benefits: purgation and losing weight. False! weight loss
After the first time your body will feel purified. But if you use this method every day, your intestines will lose their natural condition.

7. You can lose weight by using diuretics. False!
It is true that your weight will be reduced, but it will be at the expense of loss of fluids. Thus your organism will be dehydrated and there is a danger for your kidney function. And if you lose some weight anyway, it will be momentary.

8. Pills for quickly weight loss. False! losing weight
If you do not take them along with a diet and sport activities, they will hardly work. Fat will melt unevenly. To fix the contours of your body, you should take advantage of special exercises, massage and cabin procedures along with the pills. And when you choose diet pill, please do not go for those saying "- 10kilos in 5 days" or something like that, because they are lying!

9. It is useful for you to eat only raw fruits and vegetables. False!
This may lead to a shortage of proteins and fats. Also you must remembered that the vegetable food does not satiate fully and it provokes expanding your stomach. When eating vegetables repeatedly and if you do not have enough strength, the green salad will soon be displaced by a savoury steak.

10. You could lose some weight if you miss your lunch. False!
Some people actually feed on twice a day and this is normal for them. But this regimen of diet has nothing to do with weight loss, nor with the recommended regimen of at least 3 meals a day. If you miss your lunch, it is possibly for you to eat at dinner almost twice as much.

These were 10 of the 15 myths I said I would refute. Please wait for the last 5, I'll write about them very soon! weight loss, weight loss pills, losing weight, diet, myths, healthy food, weight loss, become thin

15 Myths about weight loss - part I

In the next lines I'll try to give you the most common myths about weight loss, so that you don't believe in them and try to avoid them.

Image: imageshare.web.id

1. The shortest way to weight loss is starvation. False!
At first you really start losing weight, but then very quickly you return the previous kilograms. If, however, for some reason you want to hunger, try to do it for no more than 2-3 days.

2. The one and only enemy - the cholesterol. False!
To get rid of the products containing cholesterol is a very big mistake that could have unforeseen consequences. Firstly cholesterol is not superfluous but it is necessary for our organism (in certain quantities, of course) - it is directly involved in the production of sex hormones. And when their balance is disturbed, the effects on our body can be very serious.

3. Tea for losing weight is innocuous. False!
Absolutely safe products do not exist. If you do not pay attention to the contra-indications, you can bring upon gastritis or chronic indigestion. After about 10 days can feel pain and burning in the stomach.

4. Vegetarianism saves you from extra kilograms. Not always!
You can even put some weight on when eating vegetarian food. The complete rejection of animal proteins will affect negatively your health.

5. The more you watch your weight, the more you please others. False!
This position has a side effect. Exactly when one person says that he/she starts losing weight, others begin noticing his/her weight. And neither men nor women like too lean partners.
