Does weight loss always fail? Avoiding 3 misconceptions+sticking to 2 things, you can also lose weight in winter

When I wake up in the morning and stand on the weight scale, the number doesn't even move, and it even bounces up twice? Wrapped in a winter coat, the flesh on my waist seemed to have found a comfortable nest, quietly forming three layers of towers. Don't rush to hide the weight scale under the bed, you may just have fallen into an invisible trap on your weight loss journey.

Why does losing weight in winter always seem like a bottleneck? You may have fallen into these pitfalls

1. Overreliance on "winter metabolism theory"

Legend has it that the human body burns more calories in cold environments, but this bonus may only be enough to offset the energy of half a cookie. When eating snacks in the heated room, shaking legs consumes even more calories than the so-called 'winter metabolism'.

2. Use high calorie foods as a tool to keep warm

The dense texture of hot chocolate and the exuberance of hotpot can indeed bring a sense of happiness, but the calories of a cream topped drink need to be consumed by brisk walking for 90 minutes. The so-called 'eating enough to freeze' is actually a rumor spread by fat cells.

3. Exercise plan to sleep with the temperature

Thick down jackets become the perfect excuse for not going out, WeChat steps from summer The five digits of the sky suddenly dropped to three digits. After stopping exercise for 6 weeks, the number of mitochondria will decrease by 28% due to muscle depletion.

2. Core strategy for breaking through the platform period

1. Re recognize your food

Changing the white porcelain plate to a light colored plate can make the brain mistakenly think that there is 50% more food. The strategy of eating protein and vegetables first, and finally touching the main food, can reduce postprandial blood sugar fluctuations by 20%. When cooking soup in winter, skim off the floating oil, which can easily reduce fat intake by 30%.

2. Create an environment that is not prone to weight gain

Move snacks from the easily accessible coffee table to the upper level of the cabinet that requires stepping on a stool to reach. This simple spatial reconstruction can reduce food intake by 40%. Delete the first page of the food delivery app on your phone to increase the thinking time when placing an order.

3. Gentle weight loss methods suitable for winter

1. Stairs are the best fitness equipment

Climbing stairs for 15 minutes every day is equivalent to burning the calories of a cheesecake. The continuous exertion of muscles in the buttocks and thighs during this process can bring about a 48 hour afterburning effect.

2. Turn on the "light internet disconnect" mode 90 minutes before bedtime.

The blue light from electronic devices can interfere with leptin secretion, increasing hunger by 25%. Soaking feet in hot water instead of watching short videos can not only improve blood circulation, but also reduce the probability of late night foraging.

Down jackets are not protective colors to cover up problems, but obstacles to mobility. When others are complaining about 'getting fat in winter', you have already mastered the password to break the curse. Before weighing tomorrow morning, remember to say to yourself in the mirror: This time is different.
