18 ديسمبر 2021

If you are looking for the right diet plan in Qatar for weight loss you have come to the right place.

With weight gain becoming a rising concern for people all around the world, it is very crucial for us to know the right way to start losing weight.

 

Understanding Weight Loss

While it is widely believed that weight loss involves doing lots of vigorous exercises for an extended period of time, the truth however is that, our diet is of more influence on how effectively we lose the extra pounds of weight than just workout alone.

For the most effective weight loss plan, eating just the right amount of protein, fats and carbohydrates along with essential vitamins and minerals can make all the difference within a short span of time. It is important to remember that losing weight is not just about getting physically lean or thin, it is about reaching an optimum physical condition where the metabolism is proper along with other bodily functions.

Another commonly believed factor in weight loss is cutting off fat in the diet, which is again, not entirely the right thing to do. Fat plays an important role in protecting our body and is essential for a healthy living. However, there are different kinds of fat, some healthy and some are not healthy. Any fat that is heavily processed is harmful for the body. Fats from olive oil and fish liver oil are considered healthy whereas any form of refined oil is full of unhealthy chemicals. Butter and other milk fats are considered healthy if consumed in small quantities.

The above-mentioned weekly diet plan should be repeated with minor changes according to the body type of different individuals for at least 3 months before a significant change is observed. It is important to note that this diet will only help you lose weight and gain a controlled healthy physique when combined with daily mild exercise and at least 6 to 8 hours of night-time sleep.

Daily water intake must be within 4 to 5 litters. Water plays a crucial role in weight loss. It helps in digestion and proper absorption of the nutrients in the food. It helps regulate body temperature and processing of fat. All this diet will go to waste if the water intake is not proper and the body will react abnormally with frequent headaches and upset stomach.

Precautionary advice for weight loss

It is very much understandable that there are a lot of people for whom it is not possible to follow a strict diet and workout plan due to their work time. In such cases the overall diet should be composed of easily available food that covers the essential nutrients.

For them, the golden advice is that no matter how much you may be able to follow the given diet or any diet, do not overfeed yourself. Always intake less than your usual capacity and your body shall function smoothly. Any food that is not utilised by the body will ultimately get converted into starch and shall be stored as fat in the body which is to be avoided.

 

Amount of nutrients in the weight loss diet

It is advised to avoid simple carbohydrates like bread, biscuits, white rice since they contain too much sugar. Instead, contemporaries like brown rice, millets and oats are the healthier option. The overall diet should be composed of 30% of protein in the form of chickpeas, paneer, milk , eggs and meat. This is very crucial since protein is important for muscle building and sustaining.

Also, 20% of the whole diet must contain healthy fats such as polyunsaturated, monounsaturated and Omega-3 fatty acids. Oils such as olive oil, rice bran oil, mustard oil and sesame seed oil are excellent sources of healthy fats. Apart from these restricted amounts of butter and ghee can also be included. Deep fried food is to be avoided at all costs.
