the battle to lose weight with me will never end!!! hahaha.. here's some myths about losing weight i found on fb.. interesting..
.....................................................
Myth No.1 - Giving Up Breakfast
Skipping breakfast would only undo your efforts of losing weight. A high-nutrient breakfast gives our body the much-needed calorie burning start. Just make sure that your breakfast is composed of healthy stuff like sprouts, juices, etc and it's not equivalent to the heavy meals you enjoy at weddings!
.....................................................
Myth No.2 - Carbs are my worst enemy!
All carbs aren't bad. Soda, a carbohydrate, is bad but broccoli, another carbohydrate, is good. All you need to figure out is which carbs are good for you instead of worrying about the overall carb intake. Rely on veggies, fruits, and high-fiber whole grains (but do not indulge in gluttony). If you can't resist a tempting carb, say an ice-cream, burn it off with exercise!
.....................................................
Myth No.3 - No Food After 7 in the evening!
There's no magic time to get done with food for the day. Just stop devouring food which is bad for your health. For instance, if you're watching a late night movie on television force yourself to not eat junk food like ice creams, chips, burgers etc, rather go for salads, fruits etc!
.....................................................
Myth No.4 - Just Cutting Down the Calories!
Not entirely true. While total intake of calories does matter, the source from which you get them is also important. You get almost the same number of calories from a handful of almonds and 3 apples as you would get from a cheeseburger and coke. But you know that you have to choose the former!
.....................................................
Myth No.5 - Going to Slimming Centres!
We're sorry to inform you but there are no miraculous 'lying down idly and let the machines burn fats for you' slimming therapies as claimed.
Some slimming programmes using FIRR technology may help a little to cut flab but then you have to supplement them with right dietary and fitness programmes to extract the benefit out of them. That is also provided you have thousands of dollars to splurge on!
