Generally speaking, if the person following the diet is overweight and the strategy is technically correct, there should be no particular difficulties in weight reduction of fat mass.Of course, all this subordinates to the honesty and awareness of those who try their hand at dieting to lose weight - it may seem obvious, but it is not at all.
to the diet: why is it wrong not to inform the dietician?The sincerity of users, with themselves and with the professionals who follow them, is absolutely not to be taken for granted; however, it is not possible to intervene on this aspect. Determination and righteousness are in fact necessary elements for the success of the therapy and, even if the professional is required to motivate skills - ranging from simple counseling, to "empowerment, up to the presentation of a" model-example "to follow - alone does not it can fill gaps of this kind.
In fact, the conspiratorial attitude about the failure of the diet is not so rare. People feel ashamed in confessing that they do not have the right motivation and fear the judgment of the therapist. However, in this way the essential conditions for improving the situation are not provided. In fact, it is not certain that this lack depends only on the patient; sometimes, it is sufficient to increase the pleasantness of the food or slightly increase the daily calories to rediscover greater fidelity to the project.
Having difficulty in adhering to a weight loss diet, therefore, is not a fault. The strategy may not be essentially correct, the period may not be the right one, and there may be undervalued collateral difficulties. If so, everyone should ask themselves a question: "Now, how much time and resources would I have to devote to achieving this goal?" Moreover, if the need for weight loss has no health reasons, but only aesthetic reasons, it is also right to give it the importance it deserves.
We have already talked about the correctness of the strategy, which can also be defined as a diet or diet for slimming. What should a weight loss diet be like? In the next paragraph we will indicate which key principles a weight loss diet should possess.
contained in the adipose tissue - which, as we know, constitutes an energy reserve - it is essential to create a negative caloric balance; very briefly, the caloric balance is the result of the following arithmetic operation:
ENERGY IN (taken with food) - ENERGY OUT (spent on metabolic, basal and motor activities)
If the result is zero or even positive, that is, if the calories introduced with food and drink are greater than those consumed, the body will not use the reserve fat - indeed, in the case of a positive balance it will tend to accumulate some. If the result corresponds to a negative value, a reduction of the lipid stocks takes place.
A diet that does not provide all the energy necessary to maintain weight stability by reducing it is called a low calorie diet. Obviously, this property is strictly subjective, because energy consumption is individual.
Thanks to the collective misinformation, many believe that the low-calorie diet is an outdated method, because it is stressful and harmful, as it is feared that it may reduce the basal metabolism and affect muscle volumes. Wrong. Granted that such undesirable effects could occur, they would happen with very important energy restrictions, which fall far beyond the so-called basal metabolism - calories expended in conditions of total rest, awake, without digestion, thermogenesis, sweating or any brain or physical activity. A diet can be as low as 1%.
Then, sometimes those who criticize the nutritional restriction system suggest that the safest and most effective method would be to increase the movement. Now, it being understood that in the absence of an adequate motor activity protocol it is undoubtedly advisable to undertake it, the result does not change. What is certain is that by doing sport you will also get many other benefits, both in terms of health, but also in weight loss; for example, physical activity invigorates the muscles, creates oxygen debt and improves the metabolic utilization of carbohydrates, which contributes to increasing energy expenditure and optimizing the destination of the nutrients consumed. However, the principle remains the same: a negative calorie balance. Many reply that, in this way, there is the advantage of eating more, to the advantage of the supply of essential nutrients. On the other hand, the need for vitamins, essential fats, essential amino acids and minerals increases with the increase in commitment. physical due to sport. As if that weren't enough, moving more also involves an increase in appetite, which will have to be reckoned with at the table.
