Many people are finding ways to lose weight, thus I would like to share the most basic essential method for losing weight the healthy way right here.
Humans are made up of cells. Cells = tissues = organs. In order for our body to function well, our cells need to be fed with good nutrients. Thus, first of all is to change your eating habit. Next is to drink lots and lots of water. For every 1KG (around 2.2lbs) of your weight, you will need to drink 75ml of water. Water is essential, and that DOES NOT include juice, coffee etc. It should be PURELY water.
In summary, to calculate how much water your body need per day:
Your weight x 75ml = Amount of water required.
70% of our body is made up of water. As the organs in our body need different amount of water to function well, if one of the organs does not receive sufficient water to function, their job will be shared with the other organ, which will affect your body's overall performance. For example, when the kidney lacks of water, it is unable to function fully. Thus, the kidney's workload will be shared with the liver. As one of the jobs of the liver is to convert stored fats and provide energy to the body, it is unable to do so now that it has to do kidney's jobs too. And this cause the liver to be unable to burn off the fats completely. When this happens, fat increases, causing the weight to increase too.
OR
The reason could be because you have been drinking too little water. People often have this misconception that drinking too much water will cause water retention but the truth is, it's the opposite. Water retention will cause what you call, 'balloon body' and this results in the increase in weight. When you drink too little, your body receives this signal and will turn itself to survival mode. The water will in turn wrap around your cells. Thus, each time you drink water, your body will keep it instead of using the water to cleanse your organs. However, once you drink lots of water, your body will know and start to release the water inside the body.
Finally, it is very difficult for the body to differentiate hunger from thirst. If you don't drink enough water throughout the day, you may mistake thirst for hunger and eat more than you really need, which can also impair weight loss. So staying well hydrated is important.
If you have any questions, you can either post it here or email me at [email removed]. I'll do my best to answer your queries!
