Weight loss per week

Weekly weight loss. Is this possible?

We usually associate weight loss with a very long and tedious process. We often see them as a necessity to give up many of our favourite products or eating habits. When we decide to weight loss we look online for the answers to most questions. The most common questions are 

How to lose weight in a week, how to weight losst easily, effectively and sustainably?

The answer to the first question is very difficult. Diet writers clearly indicate that the weight loss process does not take place at the touch of an eye or a finger. First effects appear after several days or a few weeks, and many times at all. 

This is due to the fact that the requirements related to the way of eating and the type of products consumed are not observed. We are not able to achieve much in a week. Murderous workouts and strict diet will bring results, but probably not as big as we expect.

Why is the first week of weight loss so important?

However, the first week of weight loss is very important. Its aim is:

• acquiring appropriate eating habits,
• drawing up a proper energy balance
• elimination of bad habits, such as e.g. eating empty calories (this is referred to as calories delivered to the body between meals: a bar, a chocolate or a fast burger).

We need to realise the harmfulness of individual products and replace them with healthy equivalents in the energy balance. From the very beginning, let's give up on a diet fried in favour of cooked food. Let us introduce meals consisting of vegetables only, and let us not avoid fruit. 

Apples are particularly suitable. Not only are they very tasty and quickly clog our stomachs, they also improve metabolism. In the case of abundant meals, it is recommended to eat dairy products in the form of kefir or yoghurt one hour after consumption. A large amount of carbohydrates will help your body digest more quickly. When deciding to weight loss, let's remember to be careful. Let us not exaggerate the amount of pounds we throw away in order to avoid health problems.

Does the energy balance help you weight lose?

Each of us dreams of having a beautiful figure. Many people decide to weight loss, eat corrosive diets, seek expert advice and make numerous visits to the gym to change anything in their appearance. Of course, all of this is good and effective, but if we want to weight loss, we need to get rid of bad eating habits at the beginning.

The first step is to carry out an energy audit.

Is it effective? How can we do a good energy balance?

In order for the energy audit to be effective, we need to write down on a piece of paper all the things we consume throughout the day. The first energy audit should be carried out at a distance of a whole week. Then we have the opportunity to calculate the amount of calories we eat and check the total amount we consume during exercise. 

For products written off during the week, the amount of calories should be recorded. Let's try to consume a little less calories than the recommended daily dose. A reduction of about ¼ will allow you to lose 0.5 kilograms of weight. A well-drafted energy balance will allow you to view the list of products we eat during the day. It is then easy to give up the most harmful and least needed ones, and it will help you to eat consciously.

In addition, we can change our eating habits. Morning coffee with milk should be replaced by small black coffee. If you eat salads with dressing it is worth to give it up. In the energy balance, we should also convert carbonated and sweetened drinks into mineral water. It does not rinse minerals and vitamins out of the body. Positions for reflection include sweets and products with a high content of saturated fats. It is worth introducing gradual changes to the balance sheet. It's easier to get mobilized when you give up one favorite product rather than several at once.

Already after the corrective changes in eating habits after a few weeks we should note a decrease in weight and an improvement in well-being.
