Myths on weight loss methods and why?

        Hello! viewers i think you all can relate to what i have say here. We all on some point of life have tried and failed on several weight loss techniques, well that includes me to. Especially we gain a lot of good and happy weight after marriage, because we less about what we eat mostly. click to read more: factors that control body weight

        As a chubby kid i always had the fluffy nicknames, which in-turn gave me a boost of confidence to make myself fit in the future (thanks to them). I believe to have a healthy weight now, to put all of them to shame and have been trying hard to maintain it though. So here are the few remedies i have tried in favor to weight loss or so what i thought, few are familiar methods widely used.

Weight loss through diet

        Lets just admit it that we all want to lose weight the easy way, that is of course starving ourselves. Myself used to starve myself at night for few weeks and also would be happy about the amount of weight i lost. But once we are back at the regular food routine the happy face is back on our tummy. Do you people also have the experience of loose bowels and wonder its this easy to get rid of weight, only to observe later that it was all water we had lost. 

         

        We have various types of diet like the brat diet, GM diet, keto diet sweet potato diet, apple diet... Still we get cravings about something and there we go again. These diets also restrict us from having all the essential nutrients we need for day to day activities, housewives with little people running around wont apt for these diet, this is true for myself. If you are person with great self control then diets might work just fine for you.

Weight loss by few mixtures of natural drinks

         Does this ring a bell of drinking lemon water on empty stomach in the morning, well i did. Though there was a lot of confusion in myself of whether it should be hot or cold, should drink water before or not, to add to it there were many options too like mint, cilantro. 

         This diets includes the lemon drink (i do), cucumber drink, aloe vera drink ,.. These are quiet useful in cleansing our body from impurities focusing on belly fats but are not enough to lose overall weight. Make sure to drink a lot of water may it be plain or infused according to our body weight and the location we live in.

Weight loss using spices and seeds

         Yes! these are the minors items available in our kitchen so why not just try. There is cinnamon (do i hear me! me!! me!!!) , cloves, fennel, cumin, pepper, fenugreek seeds, chia seeds, green tea, turmeric tea... The spices are powdered and boiled for the drink whereas seeds are soaked overnight, they all promote to good health. 

         Cinnamon can regulate the sugar level also control sugar cravings, fennel is good for gastric problems and digestion, chia seeds have a lot of calcium and omega vitamins, fenugreek is added mostly in South Indian cuisine ranging from breakfast to curries for its health benefits. I use all these spices and seeds for time to time but consuming them alone does not lead to weight loss for sure.

Concluding...

          I have given few of the techniques we all mostly use for weight loss. Despite of these physical activities play an important role in lose of weight, it tones and improves muscle strength which is a win win for all. We have to make time for ourselves and take that time to make us healthy (nobody can save myself but me). May it be walking, cycling, aerobics or playing with kids whatever its is. 

          Housewives (myself) complain of not having time to ourselves with our little kiddos, but i have observed that we do have some spare to walk around and workout a bit only if we are determined enough. We have the right to feel beautiful however we are, also if we are healthy it shows on our skin and yes! who knows you might get twinkling eyes too.
