At this time of year there are no exceptions, but there are many people who, suffering from bikini syndrome or trying to cope with those kilos that hide the calabros in winter, feel restlessness, desire to lose weight.

The option is not, moreover, modest. In our society today are many systems that can be used to scare these kilos: miraculous diets, liposuctions, massage, pills of various ingredients, etc.

However, in this slimming process it is not always difficult to remove the accumulated kilos, in most cases it is more difficult to maintain the weight obtained. This being so, it is evident that the methods mentioned, and those we have left to mention!, can fail. Therefore, we consider it essential a balanced and healthy diet that takes into account the needs and characteristics of the person who wants to lose weight, since in this way, in addition to losing these kilos, we will sit the first base to learn to feed and promote the good habits associated, a series of habits that will then have continuity.

If you want to act properly, therefore, we recommend that you come to a dietitian who will study in detail your eating habits, your psychic, physical and physiological characteristics, since he is responsible for performing a personalized diet if necessary.

The slimming process should be slow, we can lose up to 3 or 4 kilos a month, since the body has to get used to and, of course, losing 10 kilos can suddenly hurt a lot. The kilos that are normally lost quickly correspond to liquids, so they are those that recover easily at the time the method of thinning used is abandoned. In addition, this clearing does not guarantee continuity, so we will immediately suffer the same problem.

The kilos we have to lose by losing weight are greases that accumulate in adipose tissue; the body has to work more to get rid of them, so you have to give the necessary time to this process.

All balanced diets aimed at thinning have the same objective: to change wrong eating habits and promote correct eating habits. As is known, it is very difficult to change from day to day the customs that we have had very rooted throughout the years, and that is not the goal. At certain times we will not be able to follow these good habits (at Christmas, at special parties, etc. ). ), but we always have to have the advice of the dietitian in sight, never abandon them and so you will get, with patience, lose those kilos and have a healthier life.

Combat obesity to improve lung function As is known, obesity is not a purely aesthetic problem. Overweight is a risk of suffering many capacities. Aware of this, in Helsinki, 11 obese people have thoroughly analyzed lung function. The lungs have measured their function before losing weight and after losing weight. Along with thinning, the scientists participating in this study have found that pulmonary ventilation mechanisms and volume capacity improved significantly. The maintenance of our weight will mean, therefore, many advantages for our health. Let us try, therefore, to take care of our body in an adequate way, since health is more important than aesthetics.
