Proper nutrition is a way of life, and building this “technique” is a long and painstaking process, with a huge number of nuances and trifles. And this is what causes difficulties for those who take this path – they get hung up on certain stages, restrictions for too long, not allowing themselves to do wrong. But proper nutrition implies comfort, it is nutrition that is supposed to take up the rest of your life. And it is important that it is as comfortable as possible.
- Constant Calorie Counting
Constantly counting calories convulsively, trying to fit into the daily norm, we bring ourselves to neuroticism and lose interest in this approach. Although it is considered to be the most effective for weight loss and maintenance. In addition, considering only calories, we forget that their quality and sources also play an important role.
- Obsession with KBZHU
Just the right ratio of protein, fat, carbohydrates and calories is the basis of a healthy diet. Trying to shift this ratio in one direction or another, we deprive ourselves of important substances – vitamins from fats, energy from carbohydrates, for example.
- Too much water
Drinking water at least a certain amount per day – this is how they suggest from all sides. Forgetting to say that the desire to drink must also be taken into account. Drinking water in spite of need, we force our kidneys to work in an enhanced mode, there is an aversion to such a banal procedure. Striving to replenish your water balance is a good thing, but also voluntary.
- Daily weight control
To make sure they are eating right, many start their day with weights and a tape measure. And they are very disappointed when the weight and parameters dance in different directions. These indicators depend on many factors, even on how the dream was that night, and after exercising in the gym, the body “swells” and grows. Carry out control weighings and measurements once a week or better at two – you will get a more objective figure.
- Severe restrictions on the choice of products
Not only does your diet a priori become scarce and “overgrowing” with the right products, but also denying yourself your favorite dishes, you take the path of bad mood and discontent. Sooner or later, a breakdown is inevitable. With proper nutrition, you can move away from strict rules and allow yourself something you love, the main thing is to fit it into your calorie intake.
- Introduction to the diet of special food
Sports nutrition, all kinds of snacks without sugar and harmful additives are a good addition to a diet in which you do not receive the necessary substances. Getting the right amount of protein is not an easy task, and protein will be your salvation. But you cannot eat only such a category of food. First, they are high in calories. Secondly, they are aimed at narrow elements. That is, having added protein, you will probably lose in carbohydrates and fats.
- Bad state of health
Feeling unwell is a symptom that many ignore, sacrificing such a condition for the sake of beauty and health. But your condition is health. And food should be enjoyable, then the processes of losing weight will go on as usual. If you feel uncomfortable, this is a signal that you need to change something in your diet. In addition, pay attention to your drinking regimen and pharmacy vitamins, perhaps you are missing some elements.
- Weight loss only
Moving on to proper nutrition, it is important to understand that low weight is not an end in itself. The goal of this lifestyle is your health and longevity. By switching to proper nutrition only before the holiday season, and after being carried away by harmful products, you subject your body and health to drastic changes that do not lead to anything good. Choose comfortable habits and maintain your weight all year round.
- Ignoring sports
Hoping to get healthier just by eating right is making a mistake. Weight will go away, but the quality of the body will decrease at the same time – saggy skin, weak muscles, wrinkles. In order to have the strength to engage in physical activity, your nutrition must be balanced and competently built.
- Passion for diets
Jumping from one food to another, you expose the body to stress. As soon as he adapts to some criteria, you immediately, without waiting for a stable result, give him other sometimes completely opposite tasks. Yes, sticking to a certain diet takes time to figure out if this is right for you or not. Proper nutrition is based on the principle: you consume less than you spend. And this principle works for everyone who adheres to it.
