Moving on from the value
received from body mass index calculation, compare with
the predefined chart and plan your lifestyle.
Understand the requirements of your body and act fast
to get to what you desire
(Health.com, 2015).
Skipping meals will not help
with weight loss, the overall meal intake should be
divided into small packs divided all over the day to
provide consistent energy source to the body. Having a
cheat day is very important for if the body is not
given treats it may become psychologically too hard to
keep up with the routine. Do not make harsh rules all
of a sudden, it is important to make small changes
little by little so the body adapts to the new
lifestyle and does not undergo stress. Intense workout
may give an extra boost but are not the only ways to
lose weight. Light activities such as cycling, walking
and even small household chores help with the
utilization of excess energy altogether balancing the
nutrition equation of a person
(BBC Good Food, 2015). Start with understanding the
type of foods, and what they might contain. Understand
differences between fat, protein and carbs. It is
empirical to understand what food type aids weight loss
and which might add to weight despite being eaten in
small quantities. Weight loss is not a days’ work, it
requires a lot of time and investment in terms of
sincerity to the cause. The whole routine would take a
long time and in order to maintain the results it is
absolutely important to keep the lifestyle which has
been adopted over days. Patience and optimism are the
keys to maintain the results of weight loss
(National Institute of
Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, 2013).
