Big S lost 10 kg in just 2 months

According to media reports, Big S, now 41 years old, has not been able to lose weight since she gave birth to her second son two years ago. She suffered from hormonal imbalance and heart discomfort, so she spent a lot of time recuperating. After recovering from his illness, he decided to have a full-body health check-up. He followed a dietitian’s prescription diet, but cut his intake in half. He mainly took nutritional supplements including iron, zinc, and calcium, and combined it with diet, exercise, abstinence from alcohol, and taking enzymes. After finally losing 10 kilograms in just two months, she decided to continue losing weight. The following are the slimming recipes and exercise tips that Big S has revealed:

Exercise: Invite teachers to give lessons at home.

1. Do Pilates and yoga: twice a week, 1 hour each time.

2. Dance the Rumba: once every 1-2 weeks, spending 1 hour each time.

3. Do weight training: such as lifting dumbbells, squats, core muscle exercises, etc., once a week, spending 1 hour each time.

Low-calorie diet may cause nutritional imbalance

Nutritionist Zheng Shijia said that taking Big S's weight loss method as an example, although aerobic and anaerobic exercises are performed alternately, it can help build muscle and reduce fat. However, she chose to use the "low-calorie diet" and halved the menu prescribed by the nutritionist. However, not only the calories were halved, but also the nutrients were discounted.

The diet is not diverse enough and the proportions of the six major food groups are unbalanced. If you want to gain muscle and lose fat, the results may not be as good as expected.

The principle of successfully losing weight without regaining it is to lose weight healthily through a balanced diet to avoid entering an endless cycle of "slimming, fatming, slimming, fatming" and regaining weight. Long-term incorrect diet, sedentary life, and stress from work and life will cause our body's metabolism to stagnate. As a result, you will find that you don't eat much, but you are fatter than others, and fat is more likely to accumulate in the waist, abdomen, and buttocks.

Eat enough phytonutrients to improve your metabolism

Nutritionist Zheng Shijia reminds us that a balanced diet requires eating six major types of food every day, including whole grains and root vegetables, vegetables, fruits, beans, fish, meat, eggs, low-fat milk, and nuts and seeds. For example: for vegetables and fruits, the simplest thing is to eat 5:7:9 of fruits and vegetables. Children should eat 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day, women should eat 7 servings of fruits and vegetables a day, and men should eat 9 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. One serving of fruit or vegetables is about the size of one's fist, but the Taiwan Cancer Foundation states that 70% of Taiwanese people eat less than three servings of vegetables a day, and nearly 80% eat less than two servings of fruit a day.

Therefore, we need to eat enough fruits and vegetables to supplement enough vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, and phytochemicals. These rich phytonutrients can activate our bodies to restore normal metabolic capacity.

In addition, if the body is starved for a long time, our smart body will choose to lower metabolism and reduce energy consumption, and will tend to store calories as fat for emergency use (just like polar bears when they are going to winter, in order to survive the harsh environment, they must first store fat to protect themselves).

Once you stop dieting, your weight will easily increase dramatically because your body will worry that you will starve again in the future, and your nutrients will be insufficient, which will threaten your life. Therefore, you use a low-calorie diet, which means only eating two meals a day, breakfast and lunch, and reducing the portion sizes. Unless you can maintain this weight loss pattern, you will easily gain weight.

[Nutritionist reminder]:

I would like to remind everyone that weight loss mainly reduces body fat, so what you should focus on is how much body fat has been reduced, rather than how many kilograms you have lost. Many times we take some extra health supplements to allow the body to excrete water and feces, but this is only a temporary weight loss, treating the symptoms but not the root cause. If the diet is not changed and the amount of exercise is not increased, the weight will come back. Therefore, the ultimate goal of weight loss is to restore metabolism, adjust food proportions, and increase activity in order to reduce excess body fat, reduce the possibility of regaining weight, and maintain an ideal body shape.
