How to Fight Against Excess Weight?

So, why do we overweight? How to overcome it once and for all, no longer remembering the horrible word "diet", ceased to reproach himself for the food "very little" cake with a nice little berries in whipped cream? How to break this endless running in a circle? I've long been trying to understand it! Let us try together?

Conscious about the whole period of my life, I am an unequal battle with overweight. In the process of growing up the thought of losing weight more often occurred to me, increasingly nagged mercilessly conscience for his healthy appetite. And I'm happy to share my successful and not so self-torture methods.

Method One: the miracle pills.

No matter how touted these miracle drugs, should think twice before you decide to start taking them. First, the miracles happen very rarely. Even if all that is written on the box, though (a lot of fakes!) And the body will lose weight without dieting and health damage, think about how this happens. Several mechanisms: a laxative / diuretic, psychotropic and so-called "sport" means that form muscle and inhibit fat. Secondly, be prepared after taking the drug type of lost pounds, plus a couple in reserve. The organism is a tricky thing and can not deceive him, compelled the internal changes he will treat the disease and wants to return to his own.

Drugs that promise to improve skin tone, tighten muscles and remove excess weight, or dietary supplements are the same rules, only more expensive. Yes, they can cause the skin in order, but also contribute to weight loss is bad - after they stopped taking the weight dialed again.

Method Two: this is a strange word "fitness".

"The word" fitness "there is no translation in all languages. This term is derived from the English verb to be fit - be in the form and understood as a "healthy lifestyle".

Fitness - a lifestyle that allows you to preserve and enhance the health, emotional balance, improve physical fitness. Fitness allows a person to live fully, to be free.
Fitness - lifestyle leading to physical and mental health. Fitness necessarily associated with success in life and youth.

Fitness in Russian - this is somewhat different topic. Even if you have written in the "elite" fitness club, there is no guarantee of Certified Trainers, and special training programs. Instead of losing excess weight can pump up the legs, varicose veins and to make onerous demands on the spine.

If after a couple of months of intensive (two or three times a week), the scales do not budged, so there is no result! Though half a kilo, but must leave. If the classes very much like, you can continue to go and have fun. But if there is a specific goal, you need to change anything. First, talk with a trainer - for your own money you can count on advice. Second, ask colleagues in the group, what their results. You'll see that problem solved - leave or simply do not have after a workout!

The most important thing is to feel during exercise were not painful.

Featured classes. If you combine business with pleasure, the ideal - the Latin dances. They do not give tired of monotonous movements and quite intense. One of the wonderful types of training - yoga or pilates. Only qualified specialists are not very many, check out diplomas or certificates coach.

What to avoid. All types of strength training - not more than once a week in a well ventilated area. Step - is not more than once a week, at certain steps proshodit pumping muscles. Aerobics in the classic form - not everyone fits quite intense for beginners.

Details about fitness.

Method three: diet.

In Dahl's dictionary: "a diet - the rules of eating, according to its kind, quality, quantity and time, rules on all the other necessities of life, for the preservation of health, protection, guardian." Ie not a word about losing weight!

Let's take a diet in the conventional sense. There are several dozen species. Here too there are several types: excluding fat, mono-diet, and separate food. Yet virtually all diets, with their menu, suggest a limited amount of food. Mono-diet are effective, but harmful in long-term compliance. But low-fat to help cool over time do not want fried and greasy (for example, I gave up mayonnaise pretty painless). Of course, no fat at all anywhere they want, but they contain enough even in lean meat and fish.

On diets.

In conclusion, I want to say that the human desire for beauty - it's great. But the search for any way to reset these hateful 10 kg by any means will not lead to anything good. Optimal case - an individual approach, which does not drive in rigid frames. Can be safely once a week to go to the gym, sauna and massage. You can simply not eat after six. Can be observed from a nutritionist. Yes, and you never know what you yourself choose, the important thing is that it has become a good habit for life, not temporary insanity!

How to Lose Weight With the Taste?

If you decide to lose weight (and most of the fair sex the main part of life in a state of permanent weight loss), then you will inevitably run into limitations in the diet. And if your whole life, pamper yourself delicious, it is very difficult to immediately abandon the pies and cakes and go to the cabbage salad and oatmeal in the water. But at the same time useful and tasty food is! It must have a good look - what I did, so I can tell you about their findings.

Cottage cheese with persimmon

Observing low-calorie food, it is easy to run out of protein. In plant foods (except soy) protein is small, too much flesh is not eaten, remains cheese - very high in protein and extremely unattractive to me the product. Could not tolerate him until he made himself a dessert, which is now just love it! Few calories and lots of fun: Take any cheese, 100 grams (I prefer low fat, but what about its use a lot of controversy, so choose the fat content, guided by their ideas), add one finely chopped persimmon, half-teaspoon ground cinnamon, stir and enjoy ! Tastier obtained granular curd cheese, but not with those who like pasta. But it all depends on your taste.

Fish with a slight garnish

Previously I believed that the fish must-have with rice or mashed potatoes. And then in a book read that the best side dish in this case - spicy greens! I tried with arugula - a little sbryznula its balsamic vinegar and filed along with lake trout, grilled. Awesome happened! I did not expect that the taste is so wonderful.

The next day I cooked a trout in a double boiler, arugula on hand was not, and I just boiled steamed cauliflower. And a side dish I liked him even more - got a very delicate combination. I tried broccoli - and also very tasty. Lake trout - enough oily fish, and although this fat is very useful, yet it is not necessary to increase calorie lunch or dinner up to heaven, eating fish with potatoes or rice. Try new combinations, change recipes and traditions - and you will get new useful and tasty dishes.

Soup of trout or salmon

If you buy the fish whole, then after the cut in fillets or steaks are heads and tails - of which you can cook a delicious soup! Fry on a minimum of oil carrots, then onions and tomatoes, add the vegetables to the broth and simmer until tender. Serve with dill and lemon circle.

Chicken soup

Boil the broth for chicken bones, he will light and lean. Throw into it a handful of rice or pasta, dried carrots and onions (or fresh, but not fried) and all! You can eat a big bowl of this soup, and not recover. By the way, cooked broth can be frozen and then at any time to cook a fresh batch of soup. The soup - a great dish for weight loss, try to eat light soups every day.

Meat with eggplant steamed

Take a piece of lean beef, chicken or turkey, salt, put a slice of eggplant on top, wrap in foil and cook in double boiler. The combination of meat and eggplant you'll love, and calories in this dish is very small.

Stew

Another meat dish with eggplant: take lean meat, 500 grams - I like turkey, cut into small pieces, add water, bring to a boil and simmer on low heat for an hour or more. In the water, you can add dried vegetables, such as celery or carrots. An hour later, add a package of frozen vegetable mixture and sliced eggplant cubes, salt and simmer another 30 minutes. Eggplant can not add, but only cook with vegetable mixture, you get very tasty and easy.

Roasted chestnuts

This is extremely useful and low-calorie dish, but the taste of chestnuts you can either really like it or not, if you had never tried them. I read that in Russia grows only horse chestnuts in the food they do not fit. But you can buy chestnuts at the supermarket and bake: baking in the oven for 25 minutes at 220 degrees, making the pre-cruciate incisions with a knife on the round side of the fetus. Then the chestnuts should be removed, wrapped in a towel for five minutes, then peel easily fall behind. And once there.

Shrimp

Boil for a couple (or pan) the usual shrimp in the shell, a little sunflower, pour the lemon juice and enjoy - a minimum of calories and a lot of good! And how delicious! Just do not wash down with beer shrimp, or fail to lose weight. All seafood is a dietary food, so put on them more often and try to buy fresh and frozen, canned, yet not so helpful. Simmer soup with seafood (eg, tomato soup), make dressing for pasta or rice, add to salads, make sandwiches.

Cottage cheese with tomatoes

Mix cottage cheese with natural yogurt, add a little basil and sunflower. Put the mixture on slices of tomatoes - a salad is ready! If you wish, add the garlic, cheese and fresh herbs. This version of the salad, which previously I really liked with mayonnaise and cheese, but cheese is obtained just as good! Instead of tomatoes you can eat this stuffing with bell peppers or cucumbers.

Sandwiches

For proper nutrition is better to prefer whole wheat bread. Very tasty is it with grilled chicken, radish, tomatoes or cucumbers, or all together!

Here are a few ideas on how to diversify low-calorie menu. However, applying a little imagination, you are sure to come up with something different. Good luck in finding and maintaining a good shape!

How Can I help My Husband to Lose Weight?

My husband ... The dream of my whole life, a real man ... and everything in it is good, and no changes are needed and adapts itself, well almost anything ... Most recently, he was a bit overweight, well, or many, depending on the particular situation. It seems like something is not noticeable and corrected ... And somehow wish that he realized the need to lose weight, and so - again! - And sat on a diet. But no, he rests, and said that he did not need that figure he is good, but the fact that cubes do not press on your stomach, so there it is one big, this cube.

Sound familiar? You bet!

In this article I want to share my experience with the "slimming husband." Just want to note that these conclusions and the Council has not from the air, as a result of both personal experience and because of the large literature on the correct and healthy diet.

Completeness of the men, in principle, as well as women, do not just happen. Do not think that the solution here is one - is needed less. Yes, the consumption of fatty and high calorific food is certainly reflected in the figure. There need not less but better. But first things first.

So, it was decided. Starting tomorrow, start to lose weight. And today is a plan of military operations. And hear the vicious hiss of men reading this: "We and diet - things are generally not compatible! We are not going to cabbage and yogurt drink, etc. etc. Remember, as a Brownie Kuzma said: "I will not have it, I'm not a goat!" This is a typical male gaze on a diet.

Calm yourself, my dear man, I understand you perfectly, because she like to eat well. But here's what to do with pants and new shirts, which suddenly became a 2-3 sizes smaller? Huh? Add to the deepest, most distant drawer wardrobe, and it is better to clean out the closet, so the heart does not chafe. Of course! Just because you prefer. Well recovered, well, who does not happen, you're not the women - because each kilogram of excess tears shed. Certainly not the women. But only a short time later, for some reason starts moaning: "Oh, dear, I began my knees crunch and you know, because back in the evening whining began, and the pressure increased. Do not know why? "

I know, dear, yes the good of my knowledge is zero, you're not agreed in time to reconsider your diet. So, begin the operation, codenamed "Weight Loss".

1. Drawing up plans for military action. As would be absurd as it sounds, but it is better to write everything in detail and the points on a sheet of paper. What do you want, why you want it, what diet you choose for a husband. And it is better to write out the menu. What, how and when.

2. And now the most interesting, in my opinion, the procedure: it is necessary to establish the cause of completeness. Yeah. Like he eats a lot like the work of his sit-down, and at home on the couch after work, used to lie, and we get in fights, it happens on every trifle. At the weekend the activity does not show, just to stay home, kinoshku any look, and if they go to with friends, then to a bar nearby. Drink beer. And all of this together - and nervous sedentary work, and lack of physical activity, and a tasty but unhealthy food, slowly but surely doing their job. And is not it, and not another, and not the third. Everything seems to be good, but my husband still fullness. Then you better see a doctor, maybe just a disturbed metabolism or, God forbid, what the disease was got.

3. Stage of "talkative". You have to become aware of and understood the reason of completeness. Now turn over your man. Once I can say that the work is (talk) ungrateful, nervous. Personally, I missed this step. But if you're a born orator and can lead the crowd for you - go for it. Maybe you'll have to persuade a man to change something in the diet.

4. Well, actually, change of diet. In this process a man to devote it is not necessary. All men love meat. In all versions of its preparation. How could you not cook the meat and bake it in the oven. So much tastier, and health useful. Habitual mayonnaise substitute sour cream, learn to pickle during cooking, rather than the finished version dosalivat dishes.

Councils are actually very much. Just try it. Believe me, my husband will appreciate. Not every Russian family can afford to make a salad of fresh vegetables every day. But soon the gardens will begin, here and radishes, and onions in a salad cut - and her husband on the table. And tasty, and useful. A salad dressing can bake meat or fish. So much for dinner. Just right? Simple. A huge benefit!

5. Physical activity. And with physical activity at all simple. Almost every man in his youth engaged and hockey, and football, and went skiing. So try to remind him long-forgotten "fun." Can this cause and his cronies to connect. (I am the way and did it. Now we have a gay friendly weekend.) And you will be useful, and his joy. And how gardens, villas start - certainly the weight throw.

And another little tip. Scientists have long shown that having sex is almost identical to one of the sport. Why? And the subscription is not necessary to go broke in a sports club, you and he was pleased.

Abdominal Distension - Abdominal Bloating Information

Abdominal bloating and distension occur very frequently in functional gastrointestinal disorders with many patients ranking them as particularly intrusive symptoms. Typically, the problem is exacerbated by meals, varies in intensity, is worse at the end of the day and night settles. When these symptoms follow this pattern, they are almost path gnomonic of a functional digestive disorder and it is somewhat surprising that their diagnostic utility has not been used more often. This is partly because these characteristics do not seem to be so common in men, but to some extent, this is because men describe the problem differently often referring to it as a "hard" or "oppression" abdomen. Probably the best way to see these features is that when they are present, they do the possibility of a functional bowel disorder almost certain but when absent, they do not exclude the diagnosis.

Abdominal bloating is a condition in which the abdomen feels full and tight. It is usually caused by gas in the intestine. Bloating is largely caused by intestinal gas. Intestinal gas may result from the consumption of gas or air swallowing. Swallowing air when eating is often done unconsciously and may result in frequent belching during or after meals. To avoid swallowing air, slow down when you eat, not to "slurp" drinks, and not talk while chewing. Also try to avoid chewing gum, hard candy, soft drinks such as soft drinks, and drink through a straw.
 
The most common symptoms of gas are belching, flatulence, abdominal bloating, and abdominal pain. However, not everyone is experiencing these symptoms. The determining factors probably are how much gas the body produces, how many fatty acids the body absorbs, and the sensitivity of an individual gas in the large intestine. Chronic symptoms caused by too much gas or by a serious disease are rare.
 
Bloating hormone in premenopausal women, bloating is often related to menstruation. Over the last two weeks of the menstrual cycle, known as the luteal phase, women can retain water, which not only causes swelling in the abdomen, but sometimes in the hands, feet and breasts. Increased levels of hormones also have a direct effect on inland gastointenstinal. "This hormonal effect causes the gastrointestinal tract does not drain as quickly and produce gas," says Dr. Grace Janik, director of reproductive endocrinology at St. Mary's, Milwaukee. 

Starches are another common source of intestinal gas. Starches are polysaccharides that are produced by plants and consist of long chains of sugars. common sources of different types of starch from wheat, oats, potatoes, corn and rice. Rice starch is more digestible and little undigested rice starch reaches the colon and colon bacteria. Consequently, consumption of rice produces little gas. In contrast, starch wheat, oats, potatoes, and to a lesser extent, corn, all reach the colon and bacteria in significant quantities. Avoid chewing gum, if you're prone to bloating - it can make you swallow lots of air. Eliminate all soft drinks from your diet. The carbonation is usually a potential IBS attacks, and this is particularly likely to aggravate bloating. Have a nice cup of hot tea fennel instead of soda or sparkling water, and follow the practices of yoga poses specific bloating, and you should notice a considerable improvement.

Six Bad Habits Abdominal Exercises

Like all things, there is a good way of working for a flatter central portion, and several wrong ways. Working out the wrong way can lead to no physical improvement or worse, serious injury. When doing abdominal exercises or any other exercise, be sure to consult a professional, warm up properly, and remember the following tips.

Keep your knees
 
When doing crunches, you want your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor so your knees are centered and pointed upward. Keep them centered and more, not one side. If you drop your knees to one side, you are unnecessarily compressing your vertebrae, which can lead to a painful back injury.
 
Sit-Ups
 
Traditional sit-ups actually very little for the abdominal muscles. Even when done properly, the strain is mostly on the hip muscles. There is also the tendency to pull the torso with the arms, which of course is not the point of the exercise. Further, when sit-ups are done very quickly, because people tend to make is that the forces of momentum above the waist downwards, rather than any muscle groups. The crisis is a good alternative to the old school sit-ups.
 
Lift the right leg

Another "abdominal exercises," this approach actually works the lower back more than any of the abdominal muscles. It is also another way of putting pressure on your back, possibly causing injury.
 
Too Many representatives

It is never necessary to do more than fifty representatives of abdominal exercise. If the representatives of fifty not give you the results, do more than that will not help wither. As you build, if you feel the need for a greater challenge, try a more difficult exercise as an alternative to adding representatives.

Asleep

Believe it or not, how you sleep has an effect on your abdominal exercise routine. If you sleep in a position that causes back pain, it will make it much harder to work on your abdomen in the morning. Sleep mostly on your abdomen is one of the best ways to cause back pain because it forces your back to arch, often resulting in dull backache. The best way to avoid this is to sleep on your back with a pillow under your knees. This will help keep your vertebrae in line, back pain and allows you to work without pain in the morning.
 
No resistance

All abdominal exercises need resistance to be effective, if it comes from a resistance band, exercise ball, or simply by gravity. Exercises that do not use any resistance, such as the ability broomstick twists, will not be beneficial to your abdomen. The good news is that this exercise does not hurt and is actually a good heat to your chest. Just do not expect to flatten your belly.
 
Technical Regular exercise is important. These are just some tips to help you avoid wasting time and risk of injury. Be sure to research before starting a new exercise, and always consult your physician before starting a fitness routine.
