Weight loss facts

Weight loss program should always be practiced on a long term basis. Nobody loses weight continuously week after week. You can check any weight loss graph pattern — all signify that weight loss happens in spurts with phases of stabilization.

We often feel great when we lose more weight than our expectations. But we cannot realize that at the end of the month, the total weight loss would come to a set amount only. If you lose more weight in a particular week, it does not mean you will follow the same pattern in future too. And we often begin to add bits and bytes in our diet and that add up finally. Also we eat the same kind of food day after day. Our body adapts itself and lowers the rate of metabolism leading to a plateau.

Some weight loss precautions are mentioned below:

1. Eating late dinners is the quickest way to stop losing weight.

2. Avoid sweets like mouth freshners and other such products.

3. Over use of diet foods can add to weight gain.

4. Eating sour food and high salt food might add to your weight.

5. Refined foods are likewise a no no.

The  only way to break the diet plateau is to maintain an honest food diary, eat light dinners — add more fibers to your meals and bring some variation in your exercise plan.
