One of the gravest mistakes people make when they are trying to put down some weight is to bluntly overestimate the number of calories burned in a workout session. The truth is we have been trained to believe that exercise is the most powerful weapon to use to turn the tip of the weighing scale. It has tainted our way of thinking so badly that researchers of The Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness found in 2010 that we erroneously double or even triple the number of calories actually burned. This common misconception often results in people overconsuming calories, adding more and more to their waistline without their knowledge.
This is by no manner of means intended to cancel out the benefits exercise has on our body. It is scientifically proven that working out is just as effective as—or even more effective than—traditional medication for common health complications, be it diabetes or high blood pressure. But just because it is good for your health does not mean that it is the panacea to your weight loss plan. A successful planner would know that to achieve what they set out to achieve, requires strong dietary discipline and a regular workout routine.
Say you are a person who is currently trying to lose some weight (why would you be here if you’re not?) so you must walk down the aisle in the supermarket looking for ‘low-’ or even ‘non-fat milk; it’s a no-brainer, right? You think you’re making the right decision to cut back your daily fat consumption by opting for a better alternative, but you most likely are not. The right answer is a bit more complicated to wrap your head around.
You see, most food producers often compensate for the loss of flavor caused by the removal of fat by adding other ingredients to make it taste almost exactly like its full-fat counterpart. These ingredients, despite their impeccable flavor qualities, are not necessarily the perfect substitutes for fat as you might think; for starters, they often fail to offset the nutrients lost from removing fat. This can make you crave more food even though you’ve just eaten, so it can potentially raise your calorie intake to a relatively higher rate than it otherwise would.
Another culprit in this nearly universal dietary myth is sugar. There is absolutely no need to explain how sugar is the termite of your weight loss plan. But it might come as a bit of a surprise if you know that so-called ‘healthy’, ‘low-fat’ foods you see on the shelves—yogurt, tomato sauce, and the likes—often contain a rather ridiculous amount of sugar, unlike what you might have previously expected, and we are talking about a six-time difference of sugar levels for some ‘low-fat’ foods (according to a 2014 analysis by The Telegraph, a certain ‘low-fat’ food contains six times as much sugar as its full-fat cousin). These sugar levels are more than enough to keep your cravings up and running and prepare you for more food consumption.
An even darker side of these ‘healthy’ foods is that to get around the problem of sugar, with which many people are very much familiar, a number of food producers have used artificial sweeteners such as Aspartame, which has repeatedly been said to cause headaches and increases in body mass.

Human psychologically is hard to wait for something for a long time to see the result, especially for what they are strongly passionate about. That is some people might think it is a simple thing of human being, but, as what we have found it has given a bad effect to lose weight.

It is impossible for you to gain a standard weight for just 2 weeks or one month. Difference people will need a different time to see the result.

Do you know what happens in your body if you are lack sleep or you can’t sleep well? When you don’t get enough sleep, it will affect your appetite. The body will produce more ghrelin hormone and reduce the level of producing leptin. Ghrelin and leptin are known as a neurotransmitter in the center of the appetite stimulant. The ghrelin role is to promote hunger and leptin adds to feeling full. That will make you hungry and you need to eat to fulfill yourself.

In order to lose weight up to the standard, you must avoid all of those mistakes. You must have a plan and stay in a high commitment. Be calm enough to wait for the result though it not supposed to be a short time to take. The time that you could spend losing weight depends on the size of your body and how good you are in practice.
To lose weight doesn’t mean you have to cruel to yourself, yet, you need to taking care both of your physical and mental health. You must be treated well to yourself twice or more than that. If you already good at weight loss or reach the standard, please taking care of your consciousness. Don’t let it destroy what you have been done so far, be alert to yourself all the time.
