The basic recipe for losing weight is simple: you need to expend more energy than you consume. Arm yourself with a food calorie table or cook in strict accordance with recipes provided with information about the nutritional value of dishes. By exercising, you will know exactly when to get rid of the incoming energy.
Instructions
Step 1
The first and most popular type of exercise for losing weight is aerobics. All exercises that "speed up" your respiratory and cardiovascular system require a lot of energy. Therefore, dancing, active gymnastics, cycling, jogging, jumping rope and just walking will become your faithful helpers in getting rid of calories. However, excessive exercise - more than three times a week for 30 minutes of intense exercise - will lead to the burning of energy at the expense of not fat, but muscle tissue, and this is not what the fighters for the beauty of the body want.
Step 2
Strength exercises aimed at training specific muscle groups also require energy. However, do not expect immediate weight loss from going to the "rocking chair": the increasing muscle mass in this case will not reduce your initial weight. However, with regular exercise (2-3 times a week for 30-45 minutes of well-constructed, complex workouts), feel free to expect a decrease in body weight. On one condition: resist the temptation to overeat after class.
Step 3
Practices aimed at stretching, training the deep muscles of the body (yoga, Pilates) "burn" calories not as fast as aerobic exercise, but still very effective. They normalize the general condition of the body, including the need for nutrition.
Step 4
Review your diet. It is better to eat little by little more often (4-5 times a day) than 2-3 times in large portions. Drink a glass of cool water half an hour before meals, in general, drink as much as you like throughout the day. For dinner, limit yourself to vegetable or fruit salad. For burning fat, grapefruit and pineapple are extremely useful.
