The key to successful weight loss lies in the revolution in the brain
The Chinese New Year has just passed, so most people probably don’t dare to stand on the scale! Or try your best to lose weight quickly, but it's easy to bounce back.
If you want to lose weight and not gain weight again, first of all, you must reset your brain’s perception of food, change your past eating habits, and then establish a new concept to make choices about what you eat, because “You’re what you eat!”
We can master the following concepts to help the brain renew
Green vegetables are the staple food, and starch is the side dish.
The first thing you lose when you lose weight may be your muscles. Although you lose weight, your body fat rate increases, which will lower your basal metabolic rate and make you prone to obesity, so you need to increase your intake of high-quality protein.
It is best to eat starchy foods with protein. Protein is digested slowly and can hold back the blood sugar spiked by starch.
Eat original foods, not processed foods. For example, eat beef jerky instead of sausage and ham; eat brown rice instead of noodles.
Throw away the bread in your hands (I know it's hard), the bread on the market must have additives, and it will send your blood sugar on a roller coaster.
Good fats can help metabolism and reduce inflammation caused by obesity. Don’t fall into the myth of “low-fat”. Most low-fat foods are artificially processed.
Don’t eat too much fruit, just a moderate amount (about a fist per meal), as fructose can easily make you fat.
Check whether there are vegetables, protein and a small amount of starch on your plate. If you are eating out, try to include healthy combinations in your meals instead of just a cup of coffee and bread.
