7 misconceptions about losing weight

BẢO THOA (THEO aboluowang) |

unscientific eating, lacking protein, fiber, starch, not having a healthy lifestyle, abusing coffee... are some of the mistakes you often make that make the weight loss process ineffective.

1. Eat only vegetables, don't eat starch

If you don't eat starch and only eat vegetables, you will lose weight quickly. However, this diet will make the body weaker. This is accompanied by a series of diseases such as hormonal disorders, potassium deficiency, unstable blood sugar levels, poor sleep...

2. Eat only meat to lose weight

Choose lean meat, instead of meat containing a lot of fat to add to your diet. Meat contains protein that is beneficial for the body but should only be consumed in moderation because eating too much will dehydrate the body.

3. Eating fruit will take away the fat absorbed in the meal

Many people still mistakenly believe that eating fruit after meals can quickly take away the fat absorbed in the meal. But in fact, eating fruit before meals helps reduce cravings, causing you to eat less at main meals.

4. Drinking plenty of coffee can help you lose weight

Caffeine in coffee can speed up the breakdown of fat and free fatty acids from fat tissue into the blood. However, it is necessary to exercise at high intensity to burn this fat.

5. Drinking vinegar and eating grapefruit can help lose weight

Many people mistakenly believe that the sour taste of grapefruit and vinegar has the effect of losing weight, but nutritionists point out that drinking too much vinegar can seriously affect the taste buds. On average, 1 grapefruit contains 80 calories, equivalent to 1/3 of a bowl of rice, eating too much will make you gain weight.

6. Just exercise can effectively lose weight

Exercise helps improve health, reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, reduce stress... But if you only exercise simply without combining it with a reasonable diet, you will gain weight quickly.

7. Skipping breakfast can help lose weight

Eating a full breakfast will help control your portion sizes for lunch and dinner, while helping to keep your blood sugar levels balanced. Therefore, skipping breakfast does not help you lose weight, but on the contrary, it will make you gain weight.
