August 5th, 2010

stressWhen you have traveled a healthy diet but losing weight slowly, you may need to be aware of “hidden enemy” it.

Non-Non-Fat vs. Calories
Tired of eating the fruit, a packet of biscuits with the logo of “low fat” prepared to be your friend this afternoon. Tomorrow, there will pudding “fat free” box of chocolates and sweet “low fat” as an alternative. In your mind, low-fat foods with your logo or without fat is good for the body of a friend who is dieting. This thinking is wrong.

Do not be fooled by the logo on the packaging, every meal must contain calories. Not just the fat that you should be aware, but also calories. Begin to familiarize yourself to read the “Nutrition Fact” contained in the back of your takeout. Could be a pack of biscuits that you eat contains 400 calories, virtually equivalent to a plate of chicken fried rice that contains 600 calories. There is nothing wrong to know the content of what goes into your body every day. Knowing what is needed by the body (not the tongue) is the key to the success of your diet.

Stress trapped
In one day you can feel hungry again and again but felt guilty when I want to eat, then the uncomfortable feelings arising due to crave food, then become less excited and feel uncomfortable. If this is what you feel, you may have been overwhelmed with the stress of dieting.

Stress when dieting can trigger increased production of the hormone cortisol, a type of hormone associated with abdominal fat production. A study conducted in San Francisco, U.S., involving 121 volunteers showed, more than 50 percent of dieters have increased weight due to stress during a diet.

Now, to transfer the feelings that can trigger stress, play your favorite game a few minutes. Or simply chatting with friends at the office can also restore the joy. In essence, happiness and positive thinking was instrumental in the success of your diet.

Transfixed At Work Office
A study shows that weight loss tends to increase when a person starts work, and these mostly occur in those who routinely perform activities in the room. Work is piling often makes you forget to move. Although your diet is correct, the accumulation of fat will still occur if your body is rarely driven.

Not only that, the research conducted by the Clinical Nutrition Research Center The University of Alabama Birmingham alias suspect that air conditioning air conditioning can also make the body fat. In the room without air conditioning, body expends energy to adjust the temperature of the surrounding environment. To get that energy, your body will automatically burn fat. While AC instead create a spoiled body because the body is in “the thermoneutral zone” or a temperature zone is no longer releasing energy to adapt. That’s why sometimes trigger air-conditioned room feeling lazy and sleepy to move. Begin to take advantage of your rest time to the streets if only to visit colleagues in the next room.
