But how many of the methods you use are correct? If you do not want to lose weight while losing weight, read our article carefully. Because this article will help you see the mistakes you made while dieting and will reveal the mistakes you know to be true.
USE OF SLIMMING DRUGS UNCONTROLLED
No medicine can be used without the control and knowledge of a doctor. Weight loss drugs such as should not be used. Weight loss medications used incorrectly and unconsciously can cause serious health problems such as brain damage, thyroid problems, blood pressure and cardiovascular diseases. For this reason, never use weight loss medications without a prescription and a doctor's supervision.
TRYING TO LOSE WEIGHT BY SKIPPING MEALS AND STARVING FOR LONG TIMES
One of the most common diet mistakes I hear from my clients is skipping meals. . While one group skips breakfast, the other group thinks they can lose weight by skipping lunch and reducing their calorie intake. However, at the next meal, they do not see that they will eat more because they sit at the table with low blood sugar. For this reason, one can never lose weight, especially without eating main meals. Plan your diet as 3 main meals, breakfast, lunch and dinner, and small snacks every 2-2.5 hours. Choose satisfying and healthy options such as dried or fresh fruits, milk, kefir, walnuts, almonds and hazelnuts for snacks.
APPLYING UNIFORM NUTRITIONAL DIET
Diets that attribute miraculous functions to a single food, such as cabbage diet, salad diet, apple diet, protein diet, only cause water and muscle loss. Nutrition means adjusting all food groups in a balanced and adequate diet. Due to these unhealthy diets, you may lose muscle and then have difficulty losing weight. because the tissue that consumes the most energy in your body is muscle tissue.
FOICING YOURSELF BY SAYING "I ALWAYS EAT LESS, BUT I GAIN WEIGHT"
Stop evaluating yourself about nutrition. This is the job of dietitians and we take nutritional consumption records to understand how much food you consume. Eating less is a term that varies from person to person. Therefore, it would be beneficial to consult a dietitian for evaluation. Know that eating less is not equivalent to taking in fewer calories.
DRINKING COFFEE AND TEA INSTEAD OF WATER
Unfortunately, the amount of water that covers a significant part of your body is too much. It may decrease with the consumption of coffee and black tea. Drinks with excessive caffeine can cause dehydration from your body due to their diuretic properties. Do not replace water with these drinks in your diet.
FOLLOWING THE DIETS OF CELEBRITIES IN WRITTEN AND VISUAL MEDIA
Leave the diets of famous people, models and singers to themselves, because everyone's diet should be special to themselves. You are not a model and you should not try to have a body as slim as hers. Your diet should be realistic and always meet your needs. Care about your body and give it its own needs, not those of others.
USE UNLIMITED LOW CALORIE PRODUCTS IN YOUR DIET
Diet products have low calorie and low fat content. but they are not calorie-free. Therefore, stop consuming them unlimitedly. Read the nutrition labels and compare the nutritional labels of standard products and diet products.
WEIGHING FREQUENTLY
One of the most common diet mistakes is weighing frequently. Your weight tends to change constantly throughout the day, morning, noon and evening. You may even find yourself gaining different weights on days when you do a lot of sports, on menstruation days for women, or on days when you can't get enough sleep. This is because our liquid weight is affected by many things during the day. The most accurate weighing is done once a week and in the morning on an empty stomach. Also, do not forget to always weigh yourself on the same scale.
GETTING PSYCHOLOGICALLY TIRED WITH UNREALISTIC GOALS
Although losing weight may seem like just a physical action, it is very important for your psychological state. Therefore, when you start a diet, set realistic goals for yourself. Goals such as losing 10 kilos in 1 month or exercising for 2 hours every day are far from realistic. Aiming for things you cannot do will not gain anything, on the contrary, it will cause you to become dissatisfied with the diet in a short time and give up.
THINKING THAT YOU WILL LOSE WEIGHT IF YOU DO NOT EAT BREAD
Bread is the representative of carbohydrates, which are the most basic nutritional element in your diet. More than half of your daily calories should come from carbohydrates. Not eating bread means that you load more on other carbohydrates, namely pastries, rice and pasta, and this will not make you lose weight, on the contrary, you may gain weight if you consume too much. Additionally, bread has no fat in it and has the ability to keep you full throughout the day. Of course, the bread we are talking about here is brown grain bread, not white bread.
