One of the biggest challenges people face today is weight loss. Let’s be honest, we all went through this: we tried the so-called miraculous diets, we made a subscription to the gym, maybe we even resorted to supplements but the results left much to be desired.

Well, it’s time to say goodbye to the odiously restrictive diets that never seem to end with unnecessary calorie counting, with the help of these simple steps for a healthy and effective weight loss.

Step 1: Eat protein

Protein-rich foods are quite satiating

In the fight against weight, it is essential to feel full. Therefore, a protein-rich breakfast is very effective in satisfying your appetite and helping you eat healthier throughout the day, without fear that you may succumb to the temptation to eat unhealthy food.

To influence what you eat the rest of the day, you can start the day with eggs, high-fiber cereals or yogurt with high-fiber seeds, nuts or berries, smoked salmon, which also contains omega 3 fats. Also necessary protein It can be supplemented with supplements such as protein powders, which are extremely effective in losing weight.

Step 2: Hydrate yourself

The easiest way to stay hydrated is to drink water. If you do this before meals, it is even better because it will give you the feeling that you are full and you will not feel the need to eat more than you should.

In addition, if you work out, water is essential to hydrate the body. This is so that it produces energy and can support the effort to which it is subjected.

Step 3: Get out of the routine

When you adopt a routine for a longer period of time, your body gets used to it and you no longer notice significant changes in terms of weight loss.

Therefore, any change in your daily activities, no matter how small, can have a positive impact; whether you choose to take a 10-minute walk instead of driving or climbing stairs instead of taking an elevator, try to take advantage of any opportunity to travel more, especially if it stimulates calorie burning.

Step 4: Eat at home

It’s no secret that eating in the city is convenient and enjoyable. However, if you want to lose some extra pounds, it is best to prepare your food at home.

When cooking at home you can more easily monitor the amount of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins consumed, because you control and decide what ingredients to use and in what amount, unlike a meal at a restaurant that does not know if it gives you too little of the nutrients. which you need too much of the calories you are trying to avoid.

In addition, the food you prepare at home contains less sodium and fat, which can make a big difference in your weight loss plan. If you lack ideas, you can be inspired by these recipes specially created for a healthy weight loss diet!

Cooking at home can be an enjoyable activity as well

Step 5: Buy smart

Weight loss is supported by training, but it becomes almost impossible if you eat more often than going to the gym. Especially if the refrigerator is full of unhealthy food.

So, a trip to the supermarket can help or ruin your weight loss plan if you fill your shopping cart with the wrong things. Try to buy healthy food for the whole week so that you can prepare delicious but healthy meals and stay away from processed foods and unhealthy snacks.

Step 6: Satisfy your cravings

Don’t deprive yourself of something you really like. In order to be able to maintain a long-term diet and achieve your weight loss goals, you should not always eat the same things but dream with your eyes open to the delicious dessert that you really like.

Therefore, to avoid any cravings that may affect your weight loss plan, try to get about 10% of your calorie intake from the foods you like. In this way, you will be able to enjoy your favorite dessert, while remaining on the right path to the desired figure.

Step 7: Set smart goals

When you start a diet and hope to lose weight, do not expect to have amazing results immediately. When you have high expectations, you may end up disappointed.

The best thing would be to set a separate goal and focus on achieving it. After completing it, move on to the next one, and so on. A small step for man, a huge leap towards a successful weight loss!

HOW to drink water is more important than you think

It is important to drink enough water every day if you want to stay young, healthy, look good and be full of energy.

In addition to the quality and quantity of the water you drink, how you drink the water is vital to you. So how do you drink water?

We learn the ways we eat and drink water as children. We have been accustomed to drinking water since we were children. There is also a saying among the people that “water is good if you have something to drink after it”. And since almost all people drink water right after eating, we don’t think there could be anything wrong with that. You probably do the same.

Drinking water immediately after eating is a bad habit, which creates many problems that you do not even suspect. It’s not your fault you do this, we were all taught the same in childhood, and we all pull the strings. There’s no point in blaming yourself. But it is in your power to change this habit and enjoy more energy and a leaner body. The solution is simple, you can find it below.

What happens when you drink water immediately after eating

Imagine that you have a house that you heat with a wood stove or a fireplace. It’s cold and damp outside, and it’s the same in your house – before you light a fire. Once you have lit the fire and it burns hard, the house is warm and the excess moisture disappears. You feel good in your well-heated room. If the air is too dry, you can put a pot of water near the fireplace.

But what if as soon as you light a fire in the fireplace, you throw a bucket of water over the fire? The fire will be extinguished or burnt just smoldering, and the room will remain cold and damp. After a while, you light the fire again to warm yourself, then immediately throw a bucket of water over it. Sounds crazy, doesn’t it? You would never do that at home.

And yet, in a way, you do this several times a day, inside your body, when you drink water immediately after eating.

In traditional European, Indian and Chinese medicine, there is the term “digestive fire”. It refers to the function of the stomach and small intestine and has a very important role in the body:

When the digestive fire is strong, the man is full of vigor and has a good physical and mental tone.

When the digestive fire is weak, according to traditional medicine, “moisture” accumulates in the body, just as in an unheated house there is moisture and mold that destroy the walls and make the air unbreathable. The “moisture” described in traditional medicine appears in the body as excess mucus and toxins.

The effects of a weak digestive fire:

How to put out the digestive fire every day without realizing it

When you eat, your stomach secretes gastric juice to break down food. It is a combination of water, hydrochloric acid and digestive enzymes, and has an acidic character. Normally, food that reaches the stomach will be broken down by digestive enzymes. Then the nutrients will pass into the small intestine to be absorbed into the bloodstream.

But if you drink water immediately after eating, the water reaches the stomach and dilutes the gastric juice, which makes the digestive enzymes can no longer break down food. Thus, they pass into the intestine largely undigested. Because of this:

What does this have to do with rapid weight loss?

Maintaining a normal weight and burning excess fat depends on your metabolism, ie the body’s ability to convert nutrients into energy.

If your metabolism is too slow, you will “burn” fat too slowly and you will not be able to lose weight.

If you have a fast metabolism, it will be much easier for your body to get rid of excess fat.

And metabolism is just a physical manifestation of the digestive fire in traditional medicine. A good digestive fire means a faster metabolism. “Light up” your digestive tract again and you will lose weight much faster.

How you rekindle and intensify digestive fire

If you have come this far, you already know the simple method that will help you lose weight more easily and have more energy.

Here’s what to do:

It’s that simple. Do this for 30 days and I guarantee that you will have more energy, you will lose weight faster, you will get rid of bloating, sinusitis and more.

How do I know the method works and how can I guarantee you? Here is my story.

A few years ago, every morning I woke up irritated, with an unpleasant sensation in the forehead area, above the eyes, and behind the eyes. It gave me a bad mood and ruined every beginning of the day. Every day. I had sinusitis.

Also during that period, I discovered by studying traditional Chinese medicine the effects that “moisture” has on the human body. I also found out that by changing the way I drink water I can reactivate my digestive fire. So I decided on the spot to do an experiment and stop drinking water right after dinner.

The results appeared immediately. In less than a month, I noticed that I woke up in the morning without the annoying feeling of irritation behind my eyes and forehead. It was a great joy for me, because I didn’t even know what it was like to wake up in the morning.

So I tell you from my own experience, the method works and will bring you the expected benefits if you use it.

Tips and tricks

When you start to refrain from drinking water immediately after a meal, it may be difficult at first, due to habit. To quench your thirst, drink a cup of hot tea or a small glass of hot water after a meal. Thirst will disappear.

Listen to your body. At first, try not to drink water an hour after eating. After a while, you will realize for yourself if and how much you can reduce the one-hour interval. For me, 40 minutes is enough, but 30 minutes is too little. If you feel the need to reduce the time you do not drink water after a meal, experiment. Drink water after 50 minutes and see how you feel. If it’s ok, you can try for 40 minutes. After you reactivate your digestive fire you will feel very clear when “you poured the bucket of water on the fire” and turned it off.

If you want to reduce internal humidity even more, reduce the consumption of dairy products, cheeses and carbohydrates (especially those that contain refined sugar).

Now you know how to drink water to lose weight faster, have better digestion, get rid of chronic fatigue, bloating, sinusitis and other diseases caused by poor digestive fire.

Before I finish, I’ll tell you something else. We talked about how to drink water to make it easier for you to lose weight. What I want you to know is that there is water that helps you lose weight more easily, because it helps you eliminate acidic waste from the body. I mean alkaline water. It’s worth finding out more about.

It’s your turn. Apply what you just learned (it’s simple), and enjoy the results. Don’t forget to tell me how it works for you by leaving a comment on this article, or on our Facebook or Google+ pages. If you have any questions, I can’t wait to answer.
