Weight gain definitely puts a lot of stress not only on the body but mind as well. It is a turmoil that the body has to endeavor every day. The bones start to deteriorate, the muscular strength is lost, and you get a long list of diseases. Having an ideal BMI is a goal, but a 30 day weight loss plan is certainly not the way to do it. Here are a few myths that are associated with most weight loss plans.

“A healthy approach will help 

you to lose weight faster without

compromising your health.”

Weight loss myths:

1.     Skipping breakfast and other meals

This is a myth that skipping breakfast or any other meal of the day is going to get you lose some weight. In reality, skipping breakfast is havoc to your body. Not only you will feel frail and weak, but your muscles will lose their strength and shape. If somehow you lose weight, in return, your body will lose its immunity, strength, and posture.

2.     Dieting and no exercise

Crash dieting is a myth. There is no point in saying no to every sort of food. Crash dieting will only harm your digestive and immune systems. It will make you lose some weight, but this happens for a short time. You will instantly gain weight as you start eating normally. For the long run, exercise and meal portioning is recommended.

3.     Avoiding carbs

Fibers, cereals, brown rice and bran bread are part of a low-carb diet. You can consume these to lose weight, but avoiding all carbs could impose serious dangers to health including the heart, bones, muscles, and immunity. Besides this, your blood glucose level will fall which could be life-threatening in some cases.

4.     Keeping an extra eye on the weighing scale

We want to lose weight as soon as possible. However, it is essential to understand that this will take time. There is no such thing as a 30 day weight loss plan. The body tends to retain a large volume of toxins, water, and other fluids which contribute a lot towards weight gain. The pointer on the weight scale will tend to get down as soon as you start gaining the muscle strength and losing these accumulated fluids.

5.     Low fat and low protein foods

There is a sheer misconception that you can lose weight if you cut down the proteins and fats in your diet. As a result, you start eating sugar-free yogurt and soya milk. Well, to clear that myth, it is stated that they contain lactose and other sugars, so you are doing no good to your diet. Proteins such as red beans and meat are a popular means of losing weight. You should note; protein is fantastic for weight loss, so ensure your diet is rich in high quality meats.

Conclusion

Take a balanced diet while making a diet plan. Exercise regularly but do not emphasize strenuous exercise. To make weight loss more efficient, try to portion your meal. A healthy approach will help you to lose weight faster without compromising your health.
